while daddy was gone

February 17, 2011~ Etc.

daddy went on a short trip to california to pick up our new vehicle
so we dropped daddy off at the airport last friday
after we spent some time in the city eating and shopping.
then it was a whole day with just me and my two girls!
we went to the aquarium
this fish kept following me and starring at me on an eye level! seriously, if i took a few steps to the right, he would follow me and meet me at my eye level and just stare and same thing if i took a step to the left!  freaked me out a little bit.  okay a lot.  he’s got some serious starring problems!!!
ana wouldn’t cooperate taking pictures at the aquarium.
she’s less than a month away from two and it’s a tough age.
my sweet ana’s been throwing tantrums and screaming and she runs away
from me anywhere we go which is so exhausting chasing her around
especially when i have a 3yr. old i need to keep an eye on!
but i can see how being two can be so frustrating since she can only
speak a few word sentences when she’s old enough to know what she wants
and what she wants to say when she can’t fully communicate with words.
anyway, back from my tangent, i made their favorite food for dinner
had a dance party(we have dance parties everyday. they love to dance!)
okay okay, i love dancing too.
then we had a movie(Tangled) and a popcorn before their bedtime.
then jay came home the next day on a saturday afternoon.  he flew to california on friday, picked up the car, then drove straight back home.  and to make the trip even more exhausting, he got in a car accident in vegas.  the car’s okay, just a small dent in the back, so it could’ve been a lot worse.  i was so worried about the car, i mean we had it for less than 12 hrs. when some car hit us… oh you wonder if my husband was okay? haha i’m so joking, what kind of a wife do you think i am? 🙂 he was okay and wasn’t hurt thank goodness.  i guess what happened was it was a stop and go traffic and for some reason a car that was 4 cars behind jay was going 50 mph and hit a car in front of him which caused the next 3 cars to hit, jay’s being the last.  but jay didn’t know that and driving all night/exhausted, he got out of the car and was pissed and started yelling at the car behind him whom was a little asian guy(i can say that without being racist since i’m asian haha) and the guy kept saying, “please don’t beat me up, please don’t beat me up!” he was so scared jay would beat him up, that poor guy! but jay found out what had happened later and ended up talking to the asian man the whole time while they were doing the police report and such.  the asian guy told him in the end, “man the polynesians have a reputation here in vegas and you definitely met that expectation earlier.”  hahaha i mean, jay, tsk tsk tsk. but the police did have to restrain jay from walking up to the guy that had started the whole accident and said to him, “please stay in your car, sir.”  smart policeman, that’s all i gotta say.
