What is going on now....

Well life is busy as ever with me working and Pete staying home with the kids their all adjusting to daddy's way and dad's adjusting to staying home with all of them and still staying sane. The girls are now official potty train (about time) and Brenn is almost one where dose the time go and oh yeah he now crawls (up the stairs to Pete's dislike).The adoption is going well with any luck it should be over soon so we can all be little saumani's or a least some of us.Sorry so short but gotta go.

Pretend time....

So I bought suitcases for the girls. Anjie had to have pink and of course Kassie had to have blue and you might ask where did Alisa find pink and blue suitcases? At Wally world of course but, anyways I bought them on sale yeah for me! Brought them home and put the girls names on them A. Saumani and K. Saumani feeling very proud of myself. The girls took them and decided that tonight was the night to pack (even though the trip isn't till June) they packed everything from the pillows to DVDs to toys when asked about cloths they said oh yeah.... we forgot cloths.So they ran up and got some.
They go to bed and this morning they wanted to take the suitcases to school, so being the creative mom that I am I took on another job as a "STEWARDESS". I welcomed them to the flight and seated them put the suitcase's in the back ( behind them) then served them breakfast (the in flight meals) while playing the "CAPTION" too and telling them about the flight .....The passengers where Ballerina Cinderella and Mermaid guess who is who!
So they went to school and came home asking for the Caption....
What we do for the kids we love !

Not keeping up !

So Brennen in now 9 months and weighs in at 23 1/2 pounds. He has one tooth it on the bottom left, he dose the commando crawl ( all the mom's know what I mean) the one arm ,one leg, belly crawl like going under barbwire and man can he move it.Last night he got up on his knees and try for about two crawls and decides it wasn't going well so back to the commando. He eats solids and loves yogurt drops peach is his fav.His fav time of the day is when Pete comes home and eating.

The girls are both in dance class now so I'll be posting so pics soon.
Kassie is sick she just keeps getting it. I believe she's had it three time this season so hopefully it will end soon. I'd really love for her to get back to school, she's so busy and stuburn about everything. Her newest thing is to ask for something and when she hears a no she say momma said yep (even if she's heard it form me).She is dressing so weird now too pink pants green shirt and Dora flip flops. What will I do with her?

Anjie is still Anjie she loves school and now has a boy friend his name is Zack she knows him form church. They do everything together. They give each other presents more so on his side . They have play dates at each others houses. Pete isn't to happy to have Anjie like Zack what are you gonna do though. She loves dance class and can't wait to see her cousins and go on a plane with her OWN suitcase.

As so me and Pete we will celebrate or two year anniversary on the twenty-third of this month. I'm now working during the evening in a salon in Burien. Just building my client tell it long and annoying but worth it Pete will be working at night. But that about it for now ........

Sick again

So this last week the girls and DA(grandma) got sick and it took them all down but Brennen and dad and I didn't get it !! Well so the girls and DA got better and then who goes down but mom it started with a headache and went to upset stomach then just wanting to die. Anjie was really upset at night and we couldn't figure out why then last night as Da (grandma) was listening to her prays she asked heavenly father not to take her mom away ( she thinks I'm dyeing) so da spends then next ten mins telling her I'm NOT dyeing and just sick.... I have no idea where she got that. Yesterday da stayed home to take care of the kids while I rested and today pete is staying home am I lucky or what!!

Oh the things we loose

So today I've been cleaning and such and taking care of the kids who are less then helpful in not fighting and messing things up. I asked the girls if they have seen my cord to the camera and they blamed the dog the cat each other which ended in a yelling fight and no I didn't! Yes you did! thing and at the end of everything I still can't find the cord !! which I would really like to have so I can load anjelina's birthday pics but still can't find.... Speaking of thing that you can't find and the "DOG" took jewelry that sock that is missing and yes the doll that is always wanted and never found how do we loose so much stuff and never see it till you move if you lucky!!!!

What to do when the kids take things and can't or won't remember where they took it or lost it...... Not to mention OUR minds as we look for everything!

State Boards

As I sit here studying or trying to study for state boards it strikes me how am I gonna take care of kids, clean the house and study of state boards which is on Friday!!! Every time I try to start one of the tasks one of kids is crying or fighting or just make the house messy and since I have a friend coming over tonight it's a little frustrating to have to deal with all this . The stress level is through the roof in the house. I have no idea how jenny dose it all and not go completely nuts I feel like the monster mom for trying to get some studying in and not play with the kids or cook cookies or some such thing that in control mothers do .

2008

Well it's now 2009 how time has flown by this last year we welcomed Brennen to the family he's such a joy to have with us he's always smiling and loves his sisters so much they are the greatest thing since food to him, they always try to help with him when he's crying (which if now a lot teething) but I've now figured out that boys are a little different but at this age they are the same as my little girls.I love you Brennen... Kassie has started preschool and hated it to start with but now likes it . She loves to run and be outside except in the snow and rain she'd much rather be inside where it's warm.She's definitely the crazy one in the family it's so cute to see those little cruls bouncing around as she takes off or to hear her sing to bren she just loves being the big sister. What a blessing children are. As for anjie she's a little woman already at the age of 4 (almost five) she loves to color and play on the computer( dress up games). She also wants to join the church choir she's in love with the arts.She's also in pre-school and loves it everyday of break she's asked is the buss coming to day and I have to tell her no what a sad little face. She loves to play with Kassie they are the best of friends. How they grow.... As for me and pete everything is great we are happly the partents of three wounderful kids I'm alomost through my state boards and then be working in a salon. Peter is working at seldon's but hopefuly we'll get him into school soon for his AA and then who knows. But over all it was a great year for the saumani's This next one should be even better...HAPPY NEW YEAR
