This is Ivett. She is a great friend of mine here in FL. She is several yrs. older than me but we get along so well b/c she is just a happy, playful person. And I on the other hand am "very" mature. . . at least I think so. Therefore we have several thing in common. Age doesn't matter when you have friends, as long as you get along.
Me making a funny face on this thing. . . whatever it is called.
Here is another one of my friends, her name is Anabel. She is awesome! She has taught me a lot of different recipes which I will soon post on my recipe blog.
These pics were taken on the 29th of August. They threw me a mini b-day party. It was fun. Ivette made me a carrot cake. It was delicious!
I actually hang out with them most of the time. There are 4 of us and we are the primary presidency. The fourth girl is not in this pic. b/c she didn't go to the party. Her name is Leigh Anne. She has a beautiful daughter.
For Labor Day we went to the beach with a couple friends from church. We really like the beach but as I mentioned a couple posts ago, it takes a lot of time and effort. Then there is sand EVERYWHERE! AHHHH!!!! It drives me nuts.
This Is Lizvette. A YW from church. Her mom is the primary president. I thought this was a really good picture. . . she doesn't like taking pics. :)
Our friends Jim and Emily have gone to the beach with us a couple times. One of the first times we went Jim said Kai looked like the Michellin Man. :) LOL
Kai really does! But hey, I don't have to watch him soo closely b/c he just floats. I do watch him don't get me wrong. I just don't have to hold on to him the whole times, and he doesn't like to be held the whole time either.
Kai asleep with the calculator and a 2 liter soda. I promise, I take care of my kids. And Daniel, he looks like someone I know. HMMM??
Whenever we go to the library Kai likes to run away and hide. In the picture below Ani is hiding in the spot Kai usually hides. When he runs off and of course I run after him, this is where I usually find him. I wanted to get a picture of Kai hiding in the shelf b/c he is much smaller than Ani and he looks really hidden in there. This was a cute picture of Ani though, so I could not
pass it up.
Kai wearing my hat. Look at those puppy eyes!
I love watching tv. Lately I have been watching Americas Next Top Model. Yes, it's kinda cheesy and I am a little emberassed but I love this show! I like looking at the pics and figuring out who is going to be kicked out next. I also like to pick who I think will win or who I think should win. . . then I just wait for the outcome. I love it! Ani sometimes watches it with me and as you can see, she knows a little about modeling. Look at that shoulder! And that smize (smiling with the eyes). Hey!, I have learned a thing or two. :)
Aniseth is such a great helper. Now that I have started full time work, things have been somewhat tough. I get Tuesdays and Thursdays off, this gives me the chance to spend some time with the kids. It's tough b/c it seems like I cook all day long. WHY? I have to prepare enough meals for the kids to last them 10 hrs. the next day. That means breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks! That is some work. Aniseth always prepares her stuff for the following day. She is getting soo big. She is already picking out her own clothes and if I ask her to put something on and she doesn't like it, then she won't wear it. I love my kids! Not only does she prepare her stuff but she also prepares Kais' stuff. Diapers, clothing shoes. . . everything. All this is done while I pack their lunch right before putting them to bed. Each one has their own little backpack. Ani got hers from a good friend in Utah, Rachel Lyman. Thanks! And I found Kai's at DI (Deseret Industries) in Provo for 2 dollars. They love their back packs. Once they are packed aniseth puts them against the wall right beside the outside door (main entrance to our cave). Shoes are put right by the back packs and they are set for the next day. Aniseth, thank you for all your help. I love you sweetie.
Mommy and Kai
My little girl got glasses. Doesn't she look cute??
