What a beautiful day!

Today was so beautiful! It s 60 degrees!! Wonderful weather today! yesterday was cloudy, in late afternoon or night was raininig.

today was great. I let Anthony to go outside for bit utnil we go pick up tristan from school. We all went to library to get some books. we tend to go there like twice a week, i would say. Books are important to our lives. The kids love it!

After come back from the library, we were outside. the kids played their bikes, played the dirt for bit. And watch their Uncle Chris. They love to call him "uncle". Uncle was doing cutting the quad to expand it to put motorcycle motor into it. What an imagizition to do that! LOL we will see how it's go! My brother have motorcycles, dirt bike, quad. And my boys love it! Of course, they are BOYS! Boys alway will be boys! *winks* They love the sounds of it! hehehehehe.

Anyway, right now i was listening to the song, 'the climb' by Miley Cyrus. I likes it. Sounds very postive and knowing that you can do it. Here is the lyrics of it.

The Climb - Lyrics:

I can almost see it
That dream I´m dreaming but
There´s a voice inside my head saying
You´ll never reach it

Every step I´m taking
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking

But I
I gotta keep trying
Gonna keep my head held high

There´s always gonna be another mountain
I´m always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Sometimes I´m gonna have to lose

Aint about how fast I get there
Aint about what´s waiting on the other side
It´s the climb

The struggles I´m facing
The chances I´m taking
Sometimes they knock me down but
No I´m not breaking

I mean I know it
But these are the moments that
I´m gonna remember most
Yeah
Just gotta keep going

And I
I gotta be strong
Just keep pushing on

Cuz
There´s always gonna be another mountain
I´m always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
And sometimes I´m gonna to have to lose

Aint about how fast I get there
Aint about what´s waiting on the other side
It´s the climb

Yeah

There´s always gonna be another mountain
I´m always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Sometimes you gonna to have to lose

Aint about how fast I get there
Aint about what´s waiting on the other side
It´s the climb

Yeah
Yeay
Keep on moving
Keep climbing
Keep the faith
Baby
It´s all about
It´s all about
The climb
Keep the faith
Keep your faith
Woho

Here is the link that I watch from youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QNkrzRLJeU8
Enjoy to watch and listening.


I just finished other book by Karen Kingsbury. What was the name of it! hmm.. halfway to heaven. that s right. What an amazing story! It was a thrid series of it. It s very good story to hear and very touching to go through cancer/courts/family/pregnancy. Now I am reading "like danelion dust". this is about a family who adopt a son. A birth mother gave up cuz of domestic volience. her hubby was in prisoin - he didnt know that he have a son, until he got out of prioson. They were trying to get their son back. I am not finish reading it yet, But I know i will be in few days. I loves karen kingsbury. it s amazing to share of God's word to help out whatever the topic is/are. It s give me some thinking too and life's too.

Just wanted to share! hugs

what a busy week!

What a busy week! I was going to teach Anthony with the potty. He s doing okay. But until last week was crazy. We have been in and out, in and out of the house. Anthony had an appt for his education evulation.... speech evulation, for school district preschool. It s for preschoolers, to see whatever the child needed. IF the child s education is behind, they will help out. Or speech deleting, or both.

Well, on tuesday, we had education evulation, he did well. i guess. the teacher at Jawinon wont say. The teacher, Cindy was Tristan's former teacher last year! She couldnt believe that Anthony is getting taller! Other staff at Jawiono walking by, just saying out of blue, "oh my gosh! he look like his brother!' i was shocked that moment, because, I didnt met that lady! LOL. We were talking about pre-kingerten and age issue. Anthony's birthdy on Dec 3rd. The school have a policy about the age. A child have to be five before Dec. 1st that will go to kingertern. I think it s dumb!

Anyway, my point about Anthoy's that I don't wanted Anthony to feel peer pressure of his hieght, or educational. I just have to wait and see. We were talking about this coming up fall will take preschool, three time a week. But a follow year, maybe take him to private preschool that teach Kingertern. So, he can skip kingertern and go toward to first grade. But we will see first. gotta to find out how much it will cost and etc.

Next day, we had Anthony's speech evualtion. He did well with education. But speech is not clearly. Techinally, he needed speech therphy. A lady who evulationed Anthony said, that he needed speech thearphy, but his education is very good. She was saying that if he take speech for two years, he might not need speech when he go to kingertern. Thats a good new. But we will see in the future.

We wll have a meeting with preschool school distict in late April. We will see further then.

My goal is for this week is to start potty training again. And let Anthony to wear underwear again. So, we will see how he is doing so far.

Tristan is doing well with school. I am glad that he s coming along. he just started about two weeks ago, to raise his hand, and started talking to answer question or to say something. I am proud of him. Tristan is very shy person and stubbon too. I am hoping Tristan will not be shy in the future. We will see. every child are diffrenet. I am proud of him, I tell him every day when I drop Tristan off at school, i said, i love ya, give me a kiss and big hug. he can be shy so, i give him a kiss and big huggie. I have to remind him, dont be afraid to ask, or say, momma is proud of ya. Just wanted to courage him of feeling 'proud'.

Just to updating how is the week go!

P.S.. oh yeah, last week, we went to pearl river parade to see St. paddys parade. everyone had a great time. it s so nice out but little windy and cold. BUT BUT much better than last year. it was so cold and windy!!! The parade was longer than last year. We had a good time. :)

Time for me to go. nite nite!

March 2009

Happy St. Patrick's! Everyone. Sorry for the late update. So So busy as usual.

Last week, it was St. Patrick s. We had fun day. We made Irelend flag! we went to Rockland Bakery to get some irish soda bread... green cupcakes as well. AND GREEEN BAGELS! the boys love it! They love to get HOT HOT HOT BAGELS coming out from the oven. :) it s fun to go there. :) They make good breads - so many breads/goodies too.

I make special dinner for that day. I made corned beef and cabage and pototoes! It was a hit dinner! Of course, that s what we have every year! Go Ireland! :) We re part of Irish! We were talkin' about getting irish citzenship. We will going to apply for it. After that, it needed to be noifty and bring to city with all of the proofs that they will ask you to bring. Me and My mom is going to apply for it. I have to help my hubby with it. He need to find out who comes form Ireland and etc, etc. We will find a way. :)

Everyone is doing well so far. Oh yeah today is Spring Day! Happy Spring Day! I am hoping no more SNOW! Hahahaha. we re looking for nice warm weather and spend time outside alot to play beauitful days. Past few days, it was so nice out! Now it s little chilly, but not too cold.

Last weekend, we went to Rockland Lake to walk around the lake with our boys who brought their bike to ride on. The lake path is about three miles around. We re so proud of them that they kept going until we got to our car! Of course, they stop and go, stop and go. it s so nice that day!

the next day, (last weekend -sunday) we went to parade at Sleepy Hollow! We had a wonderful time.The boys are so fanstic with the marching bands and fire trucks and much more!

During the whole week, they kept going after pots and pan. they were making loud bang- bang. They were trying to be drummer! LOL And played as a trumpets too. :) They had so much fun. we let them to do that for fifteen mintues until we had enought banging! hahaha


Me and Dan were talking about going to Florida for two weeks for our vacation time. I wish we already move to florida. Dan wanted to find a good job with good pay. I dont blame him. I told him, gotta to save alot of money! So, we will see what s happen then.

I am sure some of peeps that we know in florida would be so happy to hear if we move. Some day. Some day!

Alright it s time for me to go now. Nite-nite.

Not bad weather outside

Today is so beauitful. Yet, cold. It seems to be warming up which it in 40s degree. I am hoping the weather will be warmer. So, we don't have to wear coats.

While Tristan in school, I lets Anthony to go play outside to enjoy the fresh air. He had some blast playing his bike... playing with the dirt and shoveling the dirt too. I let him play for an hour before I can pick up Tristan from his preschool.

When we came home, we played again outside for more then an hour. They had a blast until I had to tell them time to go inside. I cant bear with cold weather. My hands turns numb. It took me a while to tell the boys time to go inside. Mama is cold!!! Finally we all went inside to keep us warm!

I am glad there is no more snow on the ground. I just hoping the weather will be warminig up. I am sure, it will be. :)

I have been reading Karen Kingsbury books lately. I love it. Its help me to understand more clearly. Also, I wanted to learn about God's and his love. I am still learning about him. I wanted to understand more clearly about him. so, I can explain to my kids too. Of course, we have talk about it. But not in depth yet. We are planning to buy our kids' children bible book. We have one a big children book. I think we should get a smaller one for them to be easier to carry around. I will check it out at Walmart then.

Of course, I wanted to help myself to be good mother, good wife, good friend, good daugter, and good sister too. I am sure everyone feels that way as well. I just wanted to find a scripture to help me to be good person. Yes, I know I am good better, I do feels that I wanted something more than that. I guess I have to look up in bible to see myself more.

I should take a look soon. Alright let me go now. it s getting late now. nite nite.

A week later

Now I am back, to type up. Now it s a week later. Tristan have been feeling a lot better now. He had fever for three to four days. He have been taking nap - a long nap than I would expect for him to take. He normally don't take nap. His lip is getting better. Yet, it s dry and cracked on his lip. I tried to put lip moisture on it to keep it moist than being dry on his lip. He haven't eat as much in few days. Last week, he was complaining about his mouth. It s hurts him when he was eating chicken nuggets with ketchup. He really wanted it. Me and Dan tried to tell him because its acid on in it. it s hard to explained for him. I told him just drink your water/juice to help to calm down. Over the weekend, he is more back to himself. He can eats some than being complaining about his mouth hurts. I am glad that he's all better. Now, his fingers is peeling. I was like, oh no. I asked my mom about it why? It s all relate to Scarlet fever. CRAZY VIRUS! We are so grateful that Tristan is all better.

We were worrying about Anthony's. We tried our best as we can to keep his hands clean... don't touch your brother, Tristan.. and on and on. About on thursday, Anthony have a cold. Just running nose. THen on saturday, he was kinda worse. We had to take to him to doctor to be check up. Sure enough, he needed to be cultured for strep throat. And gave him a mediciation to fight his nasty cold. On sunday, I called the doctor to make sure, if Anthony have strep or not. Its negative! I am happy that Anthony don't have it. But gotta to give him medicence to get him better.

Its not only Anthony. I am sick too. Anthony and I have a same thing. IT s nasty cold virus with headaches and sinus pressure. Hopefully, it will get better this week. I am sure it will be.

Tristan went back to school yesterday. He seems to be good and happy to see everyone. :) Tristan had no school last week to due to president week which it's good new. I don't like to take Tristan out of school many times. Yes, he s young preschooler. I am so nervous and exciting about Tristan's attending to Kindergarten!

Few weeks ago, Me and the kids went to Elementary school to meet principal and kindergarten teacher. My mom came with me to interpreted for me. She tried her best to sign. Not as expert to sign. But I can understand her gesture and her talk and her lipreading at the same time. Tristan was kinda exciting to go to "big school" that's what he calls it. We have been talking about it once a while. I know it will help him to have an idea about it. And showing him the pictures about school. We have been going to library like twice a week to get some books/movies. He understands the concept of it.

Back to the point, we were visiting the school. The principal and teacher wanted to meet Tristan and us too to get know about Tristan's. They are so friendly. Tristan was very shy. Anthony just out speaking when they asked questions to Tristan's. Tristan would just stared at him and nodded or not move. Anthony would reply some of his questions. It s so funny how Anthony would stand up for his big brother. Normally , Big brothers would stand up for their younger. Of course it will take time for Tristan's courage.

We have met school nurse and speech teacher. They are very very friendly and very understanding. Its nice school. So, we will see from there. :)

It s time for me to get to bed now. Nite nite. hugs

Feb 2009

What a day for me and Dan's. Tristan is not feeling good. He had a nasty fever since yesterday. He had a headaches and throwing up. We have been giving me tyl. He kept saying his throat hurts. We took him to doctor this morning to see what's up. Its turned out that he have a step throat. He asked us, if he have a rash. He didn't have any rash this morning.The doctor said, it s step throat. He looked at his throat to see it, sure enough it s shows that his throat is red, swollen inside and his lip too... and red spot on it. and not only that, his touge is white/green color. So, he took a culture step to see if he have step throat. We will find out tomorrow morning.

We gave him a medication. Few hours later, he have been taking nap alot alot of sleep all day/ nite since yesterday. I found out that he had rash on his body. We had to called the doctor. She/he said, stop the medication (my mom called up for me). We went to get bendalyo to reduce his rash and throat. We will call in the morning to see if it s step throat. So, we will see then. Right now, Tristan is sleeping. Gets well, sweetie! I am glad that Anthony is not sick at all. We have to keep an eye on them - both of them.


Recently, we went to see our friends Alicia, and Nathan in Kingston, NY to celebrated my friend's daughter. She just turned one year old. She s beautiful baby girl, Amelia! They had a party at my gym... which it s wonderful place for kids to have fun. My boys had a great time there. Happy Birthday Amelia!

On Saturday, it s valentine's day. Dan and the boys gave me roses and card. We gave the boys cards and fun stuff like candy box - a small one, and penical.. bubbles and stickers. they loves it. Dan took me out to eat. we had a good time to spend time ourselves. it s nice dinner too at Bachstor Feast?? Its an Italian restaurant. GREAT GREAT FOOD! WE LOVE IT!

Happy Valentine's Day!

And later that nite, we watched Fireproof. its excellent movie for marriage couple. Every one should watch this movie! Its very enjoyable to watch! We had watched 'facing the giants'. And 'flywheel' too. what a great movie too. it s Christian moives. I loves it very much. it s helps me to understand more clearly on based on our lives - everyday life. Not only that, I have been reading a lot of books lately by Karen Kingsbury. She s great author! I loves it. It s helps me to understand clearly on based our lives daily. I think everyone should read it. If you do, enjoy it!

Jan 2009

Wow, the time have gone so fast.

Well, the good new that I got a new hearing aid in the end of Dec 30th. It was okay experience for me. I had to go back to audiology to re set the program to get the right setting to hear better.

it s pretty loud. the boys teasing me when they talks they were screaming... i had to tell them to calm down. They knew from that moment. And they teasing me again with their loud voices.

I noticed that this hearing aids that I am wearing now, is not the best one. I likes the previous hearing aid, which they don't make it anymore. Sad, huh?

Something that I have to deal with it. And we will see from there.

Well let's see in Jan. Well it s had been snowing on and off. The boys really enjoyed the snow very much. I tried my best to keep them warm. It had been crazy outside. The temp have been dropped to under 20's degrees. It's so freezing. We had to keep us warm and eats warm/hot food. I don't like it, because, it s too cold... its too much work and hurt my hands badly. My hands have been dry lately. I have been putting lotions a lot to keep it moist. Its driving me crazy! Hurry up, no more cold weather. I am waiting for spring to come out. SO we can play outside, go to playground, and have picnic and take a walk too.

So, we will see.

Cant believe that I am little behind!

I just can't believe that I am little over a month behind! I can be so overwhelmed here and there of course, during the holidays... going to audiology....taking Tristan to school.... being sick with a bad repeat a BAAAADDD cold/cough.....cleaning up. That's typical of me those days in over a month now.

I see that I wrote last blog in beginning of Dec. I didn't record anything about Thanksgiving.

Let me think back to see anything special that day. Hmm.. only thing, that my grandma came over to have dinner with us. We had a normal dinner of Turkey, sweet potatoes.... green bean casserole... rolls.. stuffing.... and of course some dessert of pumpkin pie and apple pie. Nothing can beat that! :) I remember that after we ate... we colored some pictures, sing some songs from Tristan's school about Thanksgiving. It s cute. And of course the best part that the boys love is to DANCE!!! They were having a blast dancing along with me and my grandma! We all love it! It was almost a hour that we were dancing on and off with all the giggling and laughing. Its fun to watch my boys do their own tricks of "break dance" on the floor! Its funny to see their own characteristics style dance moves. It s a nice thanksgiving too. Of course we all miss everyone else (families and friends) We all think all of you! Hugs to all!


Now, let talks about what's happening in December. Let's see.


Hmmmm.... In December.. Jeeze the time have gone so fast! Well, Tristan had Christmas party at school. He enjoyed it very much. There patina?? feast. His class made horse. I will post the pictures to share with you. Also, they played art craft on white sandwiches bag with their colorful Christmas stickers. They had party snacks. And sang some songs. And the best part is to meet Santa Claus. And gave everyone a gift. Everyone really enjoy it every much. Tristan asked me and Tristan's speech teacher, where is his reindeers. Cute when he asked. We told him that you have to ask Santa. Sure enough, he s so brave to ask him. Santa told him they are on the top of the roof. :-)

On Christmas eve, it s really crazy for sure that day! I had to clean up the house. I made cookies dough, found out that the oven is broken that day. :-( I didn't know that. My dad went to work and came home early. He went to all the stores to find the STOVE... he didn't find the right kind for it. 'Cuz, it s sliding stove.

So, the boys helped me cleaning up. I am thankful for that to help me along. I was so stressed out that day. But i needed to remind myself to chill out.

So that evening.... We had seafood dinner which it s great food.WE had lobster, coconut shrimps which we LOVE that. Cod fish, and other fish, i forget. we had pasta of course. My cuz Mary was with us and her baby Leo and her finannce, Victor. And my brother Eric and Jenn. It s nice and enjoyable. Then little later, Rubina and her hubby and include their son came over for little bit to drop the big basket gift to my mom.

The boys had a great time that nite. They played blocks that they got from his uncle Eric and Jenn. And cat train set, tractors, and batman motorcycle rc from Mary's. They had a great time. It was so late to get my boys to bed! I was so beat! They went to bed around 11 30 pm THAT S SO LATE FOR THEM! They were so pooped out. :-P


On Christmas morning, when we got up the boys was surely exciting. They were so suriped that they got a stuffy horses for Anthony and Tristan's. Tractor to ride on ... motorcycle power wheel or power on whatever its called it, and few board games, puzzles to play and few clothes, and batman cave.They had a blast! They had a wonderful time.

About dinner... well, my dad went to my grandma's place to cook the ham that day. It's turned out fine. :) we can cook on the top stove, vegetables, and few others.
And had some dessert as usual. :-P

Merry Christmas everyone!

We celebrated Anthony's birthday at home. We had ice cream cake for him. He wanted to have an ice cream cake. We gave him gift. He really enjoy it. He got motorcycles to play with it. And other peeps in my family gave him gift too.

On New Year Eve, we stayed home. We had a little party. Everyone went to bed before midnight. WE were all tried that day. I stayed up for a little bit and watched tv for little.

The sad part that we got all sick in end of Dec. It was nasty cough that we had. it was not go away in Jan. We had it for few weeks. Its took about a three to four weeks to get better. Everyone got it. it s crazy virus. Glad that everyone getting better. :)

Happy New Year to all!

Halloween family picture - 2008

What a nightmare experience!

we went to the store walmart super walmart in harrsion rt 17th.

Me and my boys went shopping at walmart with my mom. It s our first time to go there.. but not mom's. She went there before.

I had to helped mom to find a pant for my brother. It s speical pant to work for underground. Then I told Anthony stay by mommie. But he ran around then came back.. then ran again. i told him stay by mommie.

All the sudden, I cant find him.. i was yelling , "anthony" over and over. it s so freaking for me.

We were all looking for him I had to go to customser service to inform the workers. So they annouced on the speaker. Meanwhile, the workers of walmart were looking for him too. And not only that two milarity men were looking for my son too.

I was started to feel nervous and don't know what will happen to him. I was so upset and starting to crying. I was holding Tristan's hand. He knows what is happening. We were looking for him. It s took about what, five mintues that we had to look for him. Finally mom said, they find him. My mom heard someone saying we found him.

Then I saw Athnoy and gave him a hug. I told him don't run like that. you have to stay by mommie.. the lady said, he was hiding in the clothing rack.

Thats what we believed that anthony was spoooked out when it s happened to him.

I was having still having flash back. i cant get off my mind that day.

i was lookind through the clothing racks all over the men secetion that where we were. Of course, it s big store. Never know what will happen.

Oh gosh, i had to hold him.. and put him in the cart and belt him up!
The one of milartary man said that he happy that my son is found. he know that feeling it s happened to him, his daugther.

Tristan stayed with us the whole time while were in the store. I am glad that they didnt run after of this situation!
we were talking about it how and etc.
My mom saw a lady she believe that she s undercover that she acts like she s shopping. it s like she have to watch out for the store peeps who steal things and etc.

I told dan when we got him. he shocked his head. he s just happy that he found. he asked me how long he was missing .. i told him like about five mintues. the walmart workers seems to willing to help out.

I am so grateful that he s found! thanks to the lord! Whew! I hav to remind myself to tell the boys that stay with momma and explain, remember when Anthony got lost and etc. Just have to be more careful. I am happy that he s okay! Whew!

what a day for all of us!

OPP!

OPP! I haven't post as much lately! We are so busy! About two weeks ago, I took the boys to Matterhorn Nursery. Tristan have no school on monday... which it s christopher columbus day. Dan had to work. :(

But I took them there to enjoy the fun to get pumpkin to paint the pumpkin... go on hayride... and enjoy the nature walk as well. It s very nice. The kids had a great time. The weather that day was very nice and cool. Beautiful day! I will post the pictures other time. Of course we got messy from the painting. But the boys had a great time.

i would say about two weeks ago. We went to apple picking at Dr. Davis Farm with my cousin and her baby. We had a good time and enjoyed to picked the apples. But the prices itself went up. Last year, i remeber that we paid for 25 dallors for a big bag i think 25 pounds I might be wrong. but it s BIG bag. This time was 29 dallors!! Of course the economy effect everything! Well, Dan couldn't come with us. He was so terid. He just came home 7 30 in the morning! He worked like a mad dog -- 22 or 23 hours straight to finish the project! He have been working lately to this project. He really enjoys it very much! I will post the pictures when I have a chance. Last week, I went with Tristan's school to Matterhorn Nursery with his school. Everyone had a great time. The classmates went on the hayride.... and had snack.... seen fish pond.... sheep/goats and mini horse (i believes)... and picked a small pumpkin. Everyone really enjoyed the fun at Matterhorn Nursery with the clasemates and teachers! It s great experience for all preschoolers! :) Tomrrow it will be HALLOWEEN!! It will be fun day/nite! Tristan is going to be cowboy.... Anthony going to be Puppy! I will post the pictures this weekend. :) no worries! Nite nite everyone! Hugs

We saw his sister who wanna to see us so badly. we had a good time there for a short visit. during the week, we went to walt disney to magic kingdom. We had a good time but we took an island hopper that you can hop to different park under Disney parks. We went to Aminal Kingdom then went to MGM. I told Dan, that i dont wanted to do that to do island hopper when we have Tristan a little bit older or when we have more kids. I told Dan that I prefer to stay in one park to have fun and chill to watch our kid and futrue children too to have fun and enjoy the actioning in the park. Dan totally agrees with me. It s nice to spend time with Dan's parents to see Tristan. Of course they miss us a lot! And we miss them too.
Just so BUSY!! dan took me to his old school at Florida School for the Deaf and Blind. they couldnt let us in. The pupuse of secuirty i can understand that. But it s really nice there.

We took Tristan to audiology for second opinion. He have mild hearing loss. We just wanted to make sure how much of dlbs he have. Other audiology havent inform any more depth information. the ear mold should be here in end of march or early april. But one problem, we re not sure what kind of hearing aids yet. howeever, it will be child proof. I am curious what it will be look like then.

everyone is doing good so far. tristan is getting big every day. He loves to roll so much!! I am so worrying aabout him how he sleep. I mean i caught him several times that he slept on his stomach. I had to turn him around. I know it s mother's inscerct spell it wrong i am trying spell... meaning guts.

dan as well, he is doin fine nothing news from him. Just same old thing.

Happy Easter, Everyone!

Realxing at my 'rent's house

WOW..... I am so busy latey. We re at my 'rent's house. It s about a week now. We went to see my cuz's house in Staten Island. We visited and stay for three days and two nights at Jenn's house. We spent time with them. We had fun. Ameila is so sweetie pie! I love her so much. Sophia is a sweetheart. She dont wanted us to leave. But I had to go back to my rents again then soon going back to rochester. BLAH!! Nicholas is very handful and a lot of engery! hehehe

I am happy that I had a chance to spent time and even Tristan. Tristan spent time with Amelia on the floor having a blast with each other! It s so cute! We took some pictures of them. I thanked Jenn and Frankie for everything and plus the nanny -- Maratha at Jenn's, while me and dan and jenn go out to eat lunch at the resturant. After we came back, Maratha told me that after we left, Tristan woke up from his nap. He cried, and cried. He was happy to see us. At least we had good time for breif time for ourselves!

Today is raining! Blah. It s going to rain all day too!

Tristan is seven months old. I just can't believe that he is getting bigger! He have one tooth already on his lower gum. And there is another one on his top gum. It s coming! I just believe it he is getting bigger! (sobbing) Pretty please dont grow too fast, my sweetie pie!
Tristan loves to roll! I mean, he roll alll over the places. I have a plant to grow in a vase stand. Tristan was rolling to reach it and rolling to reach for one root! I was like TRISTAN!! what are u going. heheheh he is so amazing! I just cant believe from pregnant and now! I am sure even the future. Tristan seems to be starting to crawling. He put his knees on the floor and his hand on the floor too. he tends to rock himself. it s so funny how he do it. He loves to look at the mirror at my 'rent's house. he keep laughing himself by looking at it OHHHH the dog!! Remi who is a dog. Tristan loves him i mean Remi is so afraid of him cuz tristan tends to scream not scream just like hyper sounds!! HAHAH He tends to laugh and trying to reach Remi!! HEHEh it s so cute to see it. The next time, i will get the video tape to tape like that. I like it when he do that!

Dan needs to apply MCC to pull his gpa up and transfer to University of Buffalo. Wish him a lot of luck. i am thinking about going back to school for Interior Design at RIT. We will see first. Because I have to apply it again. So, we will see what's happen to the result! Wish me a lot of luck!

Take care!!

Hearing Dan is playin game with boom boom volicne game.. i dont know what is the game called.

What Early Morning!

Good Morning Everyone!

I woke up too early. I dont know why. There are some things to do around the house such as cleaning up the bathroom, living room, family room and the kitchen.
Of course it s alot of work to do around to be CLEAN! Tomorrow, we will have a open house from the real estater. It will be the first time from real estater. We did ourselves. Yet, there is no luck yet.

Tristan is doing great!! He can talk some words! He is very foucs on signing and loves to blabbing too. Of course alll the babies do!
:)
Tristan can say ba ba, da , vvvvvf, fa, ffffaa, He can said, DaDA da da, before he can said Bubble. how did he did it... well, we had the speech therpy she had buuble and blow them up and pop and etc. She is teaching tristsan to say bubble. and he did it!
What else he say? UMm.. i am trying to think what else. OH he said, OOHh hey, OHHH yeah, Hi, VRRRR, ma.
I dont think trsitan realized ma cuz he had the airplane that vibrate in his mouth. We were trying to teach him to say M word like More, MA.
He is doing so great. Also, he have his hearing aids now. It s hard for both of us to put his ears. Tristan dont like us when we put the hearing aids on. it s pain in the butt of course. Speech therpy said, it will take a while. the babies all are like that. it s not that easy. Hopefully, he will gets used to it.

Yesterday, we gave Tristan a hair cut. It s so cute!!! It s much better cuz he had a long hair in front of his face. It s bothering us to see his eyes and etc. He looks so cute!!!!!

I gotta go now. Tristan is up!

Take care!

Hearing video of 'Sign Time'
Hello

hello... sory that I have'nt write in this journal. Just so busy a lot all the time. now we moved already to my parent's house. Its make us easier for us now. I dont wanted to travel back and forth to rochester to rockland. it s pain in the butt. And waste a lot of milages in the car PLUS THE GAS! Forget it the gas price went up before. Now it s starting to decreasing the price. The reason why it went up, 'cuz of the Hurriance katrina. MAN, it s effected to everyone NEW ORLEAN. I felt so bad for the peeps who lost their homes and etc. Peeps are dying without food and water. It s not that easy. Pray for the LORD for the help and bless those peeps who are trying and etc. however, there is other hurricance coming. GREAT! Who knows which part will going to hit. In lower part of Florida, people are leaving to be safe and INCLUDE NEW ORLEAN! Thats good to be safe. Just wanted to be safe for the people. They had learned from hurricance Katrina. It s the worse experience and seeing that effects us and others too. Now, we know that if there is hurriance coming, then gotta to pack and leave to be safe, it s going to be strong effect.

TRistan is doing so great! He is getting so big now! It s ubelieveable that he will be one year next week!! ONE! WOW the time have gone so fast, fast!!

Dan is still looking for the job for his relate to his major. he had two interviews. First was no luck other one was no good, no luck either. i mean dan dont like the way the place is which it s the mess and way how to set and etc.

Hopefully, he will find the job for him. Pray to the LORD!

Blah....

wow, it have been a while to write like this. I am so busy alot and trying to do things to get things done. Tristan is doing good. He s getting bigger and learning alot of vocbulary. i am so proud of him. He is still trying to accept the hearing aids but it will take a while for it to adapt it. Hopefully, some day soon he will be wearing them alll the time.

Dan is the same as old. He s looking looking for job. Just waiting to hear from them.

For me, i am wiating for the postal exam to see when i will be taking taking the test. I started to study last night. I wanted to pass this. So, I can improve the skills and do well on the exam. I needs the money so badly. If I pass it, I can work for short term to take care of Tristan and the baby who will be coming out in dec/jan. Once, the baby will grows little bit every day. I would be working longer to save more money to put into the saving account. Also, I wanted to have money wise with the budget. I wanted to pay off the bills. Gosh it not that easy. I just feels alot of frustion. I wish that i already have my baclchlor degree. It will be more easier for me to get the job and etc! But Now it s more challenge for me. 'Cuz I dont know what i wanted to do for bacholor degree. It s not that easy.

Well, just wait and see how is it go then. I was thinking to do like business or medical billing, or cooking or teacher. I was thinking about interior design. After i realized, i dont think it s for me. Cuz it will take a lot of time. And I dont wanted to take over the time with works not with my kids. My kids are first. I wanted them to have fun and enjoy with their lives and us too. Well, just wait and see how is everything going so far.

take care

LIFE, LIFE, LIFE!

LIfe!

Just worrying about the future. Not sure what will happens, like would be bad or will be okay.


Right now, the economy crisis are here. HOping there will be changing to make people to be less stressful and etc. I am hoping that the decision that Bush is going to make today/tonight will not take $700 billions dallors. It will hurt us badly. It will hurt the business and etc. It s not going to be easy of course. It will be VERY OVERWHELEMED! IF that is the case, meaning that the taxes will be increase and everything will be very very very hard, and also hard to get approval for cars/houses and others.

I am hoping that there is other way to reduce it. They should reduces the price down. IF that so, it will help other people's business. And not only that gas prices too. They should reduce the price but it s from other countries who make a decision to increase the price.

So, we will see what will happen with debating from President and other staff's decision what to do.

I am prayin' to lord to find other way.
