cute stories+cutest video

April 15, 2011~ Etc.

one night as jay and i were sleeping in our bedroom, adi woke jay up so he could go sleep with her in her bedroom(which she does every night).  when he saw adi, she was in ana’s pants which were too small for her and not wearing a top.  she had taken off her onesie pajamas and in the dark rummaged through the closet to find pants which she picked to be ana’s.  so jay said to her, “adi, why are you not wearing a shirt? why did you change?”  and she said, “but daddy! i just want to be like you!”  (jay sleeps shirtless sometimes)
last friday we went to target and adi wanted to wear this pink princess skirt.  as we were walking into the store these two girls were walking out of the store and were looking at adi and ana and smiling at them.   then adi says to me while smiling coyly and rolling her eyes upward, “mommy, everybodys looking at me because they think i’m pretty.”
today ariana spilled some water on the carpet.  while i got up to go get a towel i heard adi say, “dear Heavenly Father, can you please go get a towel and clean this up please? thank you, amen.”
*TMI(too much information) warning
i was sitting on the toilet, you know, doing what every person does when they’re on the toilet, (#2), and ana, my 2 yr. old comes up to me and puts her hand on my knee and with a concerned look on her face she says, “poo poooo— coming out?”
yesterday we went to go get frozen yogurt for my friend’s b-day.  adi and ana were the only kids there and jay and i were the only marrieds, the rest were single, college-aged kids.  and they weren’t paying any attention to adi or ana and since adi LOVES the attention, she said out loud, “i feel left out.”  i felt so bad and tried to have her sit in the middle of everyone which she refused to for some reason.  then a few mins. later, she started belting out a disney song, “a whole new world” in hopes of getting some attention.  but since the shop had loud music and our friends were busy talking, no one heard her except for our family.  so she stopped trying and just played on the ipad the rest of the time.  aw. it still hurts my heart when i think about it.
but she sure got enough attention last sunday when we were at my parents’ house singing during FHE(family home evening) with some guests.  no one told her to dance and she’s never taken any dance classes.
after watching this, i signed her up for a dance summer camp.
and we’ve been going to my parents’ house every night when jay gets home from work so he could work on renovating their house.  today was no different and i usually go help him but i was so tired and the kids were making huge messes so i was busy cleaning up after them that i didn’t go upstairs once to go help him or see how he’s doing.  so i stayed downstairs the whole time and i kept hearing jay sigh or making grunt noises while moving heavy things.  i just thought, ‘oh poor jay, he’s working so hard.”  when it was time to go home to put the kids to sleep, he came downstairs and he didn’t act very happy.  i asked him if he was mad at me and he said no but he acted a little cold and sad.  after we put the kids to sleep, jay came to me and said, “i’m sorry, i’m not mad, i was just hurt that you didn’t even once come up and say hi or see how i was doing.  and i was moving your parents’ stone bed(yes they have a stone heated bed) and dad said how it took 6 koreans to move the bed into the house but i was moving it by myself and i was hoping you would come up and see me moving it and be all impressed and see how strong i am….. so that’s why i was sad.  and i kept making noises to get your attention so you’d come upstairs and see me moving the bed but you didn’t…..”
oh my three rascals.  i guess adi isn’t the only one who loves the attention and now i know where she inherited it from.  hahaha and don’t you love how my dad told jay it took 6 koreans to move the bed? not 6 people or 6 men, 6 koreans.  so using my advanced math skills, i can assume that:
the strength of 6 koreans=jay.
i hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!ο»Ώ

My Ohana

May 14, 2010~ Etc.

This is where we had the photoshoot of me and my girlfriends on Mother’s day. It’s the campus of Brigham Young University where Jay and I went to school. My friend quickly snapped the last two shots of my family before resuming our girls’ photoshoot.

And I have to share this video with you guys. Jay showed it to me which he used for his presentation for work the other day. It is my FAVORITE commercial EVER, it’s hilarious!
Have a HAPPY HAPPY WEEKEND!

I know I’m Pretty

May 12, 2010~ Etc.

Adalie: “Mama, is dada so handsome?”
Me: “Yes, do you think he’s so handsome?”
Adalie: “Yes he is…. Is Ana so cute?”
Me: “yes, do you think Ana’s so cute?”
Adalie: “Yes she is.”
Me: “Do you think Adalie’s pretty?”
Adalie: “Yes, Adalie’s so pretty.”
Me: “Do you think mama’s pretty?”
 Adalie: “No mama’s not pretty yet. Adalie’s so pretty.”

I was cooking dinner one night when the kids were being really good and really quiet. They were very good all day so I thought, “Man! This is just my lucky day! They’re such angels today.” But then when I went to go check on them, this is what I saw.

No wonder why she’s so pretty, she uses the whole thing of mommy’s face cream all at once! And this video is classic. How can you be mad at her when she’s this cute?

April Fool’s

April 2, 2010~ Etc.

Meat loaf+mashed potatoes “cupcakes”

I played a few jokes yesterday for April Fool’s. It’s so not fair because I’m such a gullable person(the worst thing I fell for you ask? In HS, my friend convinced me it was the year 2001 when it was really 2002 and I believed her for about 3 months until someone asked me why I was putting “2001” instead of “2002” on the date of my school assignmnet. You know who you are! Tsk tsk.) and Jay is not gullable. AT ALL. So all three of my jokes fell through with him:

1.I put yellow food coloring in the milk so it looked rotten which he didn’t even realize as he poured some for Adi and didn’t say a thing. πŸ™
2.I put jello in the gatorade bottle and emptied the gatorade in a cup which he saw in the kitchen. πŸ™
3. I made “cupcakes” that were really meatloaf+mashed potatoes and as I gave one to Adi Jay asked me if it was really cupkes and I started snickering and laughing so he knew something was up even before he took a bite. Shucks, I need to learn to control my laughter and be a better liar!
