Take Nine

Its been a little while since I've blogged. I have a doctor appointment tomorrow. This week has been pretty crazy and will just continue to get worse lol. I know I haven't gained any weight this pregnancy I actually lost 7 lbs. But I'm positive that I gained weight over this past month. Its inevitable. I am finally in my third trimester since the 6th of October yay! And I'll be 7 months at the end of this week I believe....WOW rrright??? How time flies! I can't even believe it.

Well last Thursday morning I signed up Lani for a trial gymnastics class inspired because my niece Jayla is taking classes down in Vacaville. Lani was super excited. Shes constantly tumbling all over the living room floor and in her room. I invited Denice to come watch and she happened to be watching Trayce as well so the kiddos went together. It was so surprising but for the first time Trayce was so shy to try it at first. He refused to go participate in the beginning and even asked to go home. But eventually his curiosity took over and he joined in with Lani. Here's a picture of Lani right before she took her seat to stretch!

She participated really well. She loved it! There was a long stretch of trampoline that they got to jump across. I was going to beat up a lil boy though! He would sit behind Lani while they waited their turn to jump on the trampoline and he would stretch out his legs and begin kicking her until I yelled at her to stop letting him kick her and he looked at me and I gave him the "look!"

Oh me and T went to Red Robin for lunch and ate for FREE! How do you ask!?! SKILL! no jk.... we ordered an appetizer and waited...and waited....waited...well out waitress came back 20min later with her manager and they  apologized because they  were out of stock until Monday so they  said the meal was on them and to enjoy and boy did we lol!

Later on we meet up and watched Jen score a big goal at her soccer game! Lani was yelling and yelling cheering her on! It was great to catch a lil game since T had flag football every Saturday morning, we weren't sure if we're able to make any of her games this year.

So we went out for one of T's friends birthdays! We went to comedy and stayed to dance! I was super tired but I was smart and napped earlier that day! It was one of my best ideas, plus T encouraged me to as well because he wanted to serenade me on the dance floor! lol and he did!  We had fun and I got a pretty good work out! Quads! We actually had a picture taken together which I swear we never get pictures together anymore!

Lani didn't have school since Friday to Tuesday because St. Patrick's had teacher conferences and stuff. T and I had our first parent teacher conference Tuesday during lunch. I was feeling pretty adultish lol going to our first little teacher conference. It was cute. Me and T didn't know what to say really. But we had a lil progress packet thing we got to look at which was cool. It listed everything they've been working on and what may need to be improved. Shes right on track and didn't have any "needs to improve" marked so we're super excited. Mrs. Rives said shes excellent and a joy to be around so yay! We couldn't be more proud!

So Friday night and Saturday we are taking a birthing class again as a refresher! Super excited! You know what they say. Every birth is different so I'd like to be reeducated! Plus I love the bonding part of it with T!

Next wednesday is going to be BIG! We have our 3D ultrasound at 1:10 and then... the Wright-Jackson family is FINALLY coming home to visit! Plus my lil JAYJAY-bean queen is turning 2!!!  YAY!  She's growing up so fast it makes me sad as well that they're are away too. (Like Nat, Kev,and the kiddos! :(....(cough cough)

Here's my lil JayJay  who isn't so lil anymore!

Oh I forgot to mention! I had some baking lessons with Denice learning her moves for her pies! I've never tried peach pie before and I LOVED it! I also got the infamous recipe for the Danish Puffs everyone loves so much! I baked a couple batches last night and enjoyed!

Well I'll be updating everyone soon after this!

Take Eight

Yesterday was kinda sad. As you all know we got  our Acura.... last week when I was driving on the highway, a stupid lil Honda cut right in front of me and spit a rock at my windshield and cracked it. Well I told T and was of course upset about it because we haven't had the car that long and bam! Also did I mention when I took the Acura to Grand Central's car wash the rollers that washed the back of the vehicle broke off my back wind sheild wiper.... NO LUCK! Anyways here's the crack!

Well we made a window claim at Progressive and they referred us to Safelite Repair.....hmm okay... its covered under our insurance right. Well the lady said the repair person would be at my house between 8am and 12pm which at 12 I bring Lan to school. So they don't come, and i have a feeling they'll come right at 12,.. I want it done so I called Denice to see if she'd bring Lani to school so the car could be here. I was right the guy called me when we we're in the parking lot of the school.... Anyways.... he said that during a repair the glass can crack further beyond repair when they apply the pressure for the filler but the chances we're "RARE." We guess what...... it cracked even worse than before.... now it looks like we'll need a whole new windshield,..... 

Today was a pretty busy morning. I woke up and got ready. Woke Lani up. Brushed her teeth and took her to the dentist. Turns out she has beautiful teeth. No cavities yay!! They entered her into a raffle to win a prize which was cool. Here's her cheesing! She acts all cool and collected but then once her dentist walked, (which by the way is super nice and friendly) she becomes all shy and scared. She going back in 6 months because they couldn't floss or do something else that they"ll try to do the next time.

After the dentist, I packed her some breakfast and we ate in the car while we waited for Bestbuy to open because one of my favorite artist albums was released today. So we looked for it, and they only had one in the whole store which i got lucky and bought. YAY! 

Lani was kinda naughty,.... she kept wanting to walk ahead and do her own thing by touching everything in sight! It was annoying telling her to walk by me and keep her hands to herself...oh well.... I told her she'd be in time out when we got home which got her attention for a little bit. 

We went to the Dollar Tree after and I found a wider variety of drawer organizers which  is nice because I'm really trying hard to organize every nook and cranny before the baby arrives. Which might I add to this,.. my mom let me pick out a nursery glider and ottoman for my baby gift this past weekend. T set it up for me Saturday night even after he had an early football game and worked at the shop on his day off for several strenuous hours! Poor babe... I'm thankful for such a hard worker/husband. Point being....he put together my chair for me!... here it is ....

It is extremely comfortable! I love it to death! I know it's sitting in the middle of the living room right now, all random...but I'm enjoying it already while I re-read the twilight series since the movie is coming out again lol....its tradition what can I say.

My mom got a car finally...she  sold her old Honda several months ago and really needed her own means of transportation. So I referred her to Warner, where we bought our car and she found hers! She got a Trailblazer which happened to have built in DVD screens in the back of the headboards which Lani really enjoys. Its nice, also because its an SUV so when we hang out and I'll soon have more than one baby, we'll have a lot of room on our little escapades.Plus since I referred my mom to Warner's, they're giving me a substantial amount of mula as a gift for my referral hehe. Which I then decided to use on buying some much needed black Uggs (suede boots) and wedge boots. They were on sale.... and free shipping..it was a must...lol  

Well I finally signed up Leilani for her first trial gymnastics lesson on Thursday at 10am and her first cheer lesson Monday at 6pm. Pictures will soon follow! I'm excited for her. Shes  always wanting to dance and tumble so I figured I'd give her some direction lol and have her use some of the excess energy! 

That's whats going on lately, and I'll definitely post the pics of Lan's first gymnastics and cheer lessons!
