Happy Wedding!

Here are a few wedding pics!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving. Ours went well, even though it was FREEZING in Utah!!! The wedding went great Stephanie looked gorgeous and the drive home was better then I thought it would be. Kaleia did fine. Back to back Jungle Book was all she wanted to watch. I brought a ton a dvds and all she wanted to watch was that one. So I now know the movie verbatum. We had to keep stopping at every town though for bathroom breaks...and it was not Kaleia who needed them...in fact it was due to one person...and you know who you are! Hehehe

Toot Toot in the POTTY!!!!

YES THAT IS RIGHT LEI ASKED TO GO TOOT TOOT IN THE POTTY. FROM START TO FINISH IT ALL WENT IN THE TOLIET. YEAH LEI!

Baby Check-up

So, Kaleia and I made our way to her new Dr.'s office here in Roseville. It was time for her 18 month checkup and for five shots, yes five. I honestly had second thoughts as I entered the office, it was kinda dirty/run-down, but was pleasantly surprised by how great her new Dr. is! I think I have been spoiled by Southern CA. offices that all have ocean views and are on the 10 floor. AAAh...back in reality in Nor Cal. So Lei is in the 90% for weight and off the charts in height. Jord and I will savor that statistic cuz with our genes we know she will not stay at the top of any height chart. Hehehe




Here is Lei trying on some Utah gear. We are headed out for the wedding Saturday.

Toot Toot = Poop

Okay, so Lei went poop in the potty for the first time this week! But now she runs and hides every time she has to go. She calls pooping Toot Toot. Yesterday she told me she had to go and I asked her if she wanted to go in the potty and she said no, then ran and hid in Spencer's room to do her business in private. (we are visiting my mom this weekend) When she was done she walked up to me and said toot toot. But! at least we are making a move towards the direction of potty training. We need to go and buy her her own potty this week I think.

Another milestone for her is she went to the nursery at church today for the first time. We walked in and they were doing puzzles and she sad down and started doing one, and that was all she needed to be fine alone. I thought at least she would cry for a minute and then be fine...but no. When Jord went to get her out at the end of church the lady said she was fine, didn't cry, and would be happy to have her every week. And if I may say it was soo nice not to have her in Sunday school class. I actually was able to pay attention and church went by faster without having to pace the halls with Lei.

Jord starts his new job tomorrow and will blog later to update you all. Of course I think I blog more for our own records. I started printing them out at putting them in a binder, sort of like a journal.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Well here we all are! All dressed and ready for a fun night...That lasted 3 houses!



Our night ended sooner then we thought because Lei kept stopping to dig out her candy to try and eat it. She would just drop to the ground and throw off her ears and bite into the wrapped cany!

The end of the duck phase is no where in sight!

The Little Golfer

It seems that we will be buying Lei a set of golf clubs for Christmas. Lately she has been very interested in the game, playing inside and outside with Jord.



Jord and her were outside playing for about an hour and towards the end of it I went inside to make dinner. It was getting dark so they soon joined me, however Lei was very upset, she was not done golfing. I asked her if she wanted to help me make dinner instead and she was at my side...Making/eating the salad. She loves tomatoes and eats them like apples, and as I was grating the cheese she was eating the pieces that fell to the side of the plate.

Avid runner or idiot?

Ok, so for those of you who don't know I have been pre-training for a 1/2 marathon in February. So I am going for my morning run and I did think I would beat the rain like I did yesterday. But I don't. It begins to sprinkle and it honestly felt good, I was 1/2 done with my run and hot. So I hit my mark and turn around to start home and the rain begins to come done a little heavier, and I am thinking oh jeez I have become one of those devoted runners who you drive by and think wow there is a devoted runner. Then it begins to POUR!!!! And I am now thinking I am one of those idiot runners you drive by and think I would really like to drive in the gutter and splash them with water. Hahaha. At this point I am still 3 miles away from the house and have no choice but to continue running. I am so soaked, I am afraid to change the lame song that popped up on my ipod for fear I will ruin it in the rain, and can't help but think my new shoes will no longer look new once this is over. But alas it stops pouring and begins sprinkling, I pass 2 other runners, and sigh with relief that there are others running in the rain and I only have one block to go...And then this thought enters my mind...I am no idiot I am worse! I have become an avid runner!

4 YEARS!

Well, yesterday was our 4th anniversary! We had a nice day, even with work and dentist appointments. I got two fillings right next to one another, one on top and one on bottom so half my face was numb all morning. I should have taken a picture cuz when I smiled it was laugh out loud funny. We went to dinner at Olive Garden and for the first time in a LOOONG time I ordered exactly what I wanted. A virgin pina colada, bread sticks, salad, chicken stuffed marsala with garlic mashed potatoes (dripping with butter, I can't remember the last time I had real butter that didn't come out of a spray bottle), and sadly we had no room for dessert. I am sorry I am getting hungry thinking of the meal again. :) Anyways, that was our day. We are thinking of having a post anniversary day and spending it in
San Fransico in a couple of weeks. When we go I will post some pics for sure.

P.S. Sorry ladies but I have the best husband!
