MI AMOR

TIS THE SEASON

2010-11-30T14:44:00.000-08:00

This is my most favorite time of the year for lots of reasons but I did forget how cold it gets! Burrr, and to think during the summer I say wow I love snow I want to live in Colorado. Um, reality check I would never stand a chance! I love snowboarding but that is as far as it gets. I am so blessed, I love surrounding myself with family and the spirit of this time of year. I have sat back and thought a lot about what I am grateful for and I definitely know what is important in life. It is not about how much you have, where you live, what you drive, or what brand is on the back of your shirt it is all about the LOVE that you have in your life! I LOVE MY #1's!!!

Deaf Football Game

2010-11-09T05:48:00.000-08:00

One of many pictures I need to upload! It takes FOREVER to upload pictures, ugh
Logan was super cute he said, "Why is no one talking?! Well do at least the football players talk??

Sometimes The Day Rise From The Grave

2010-11-08T13:26:00.000-08:00

YAY we are alive, I am excited to be back, I think I am over facebook for now. I miss blogging so I hope there are still people out there getting their blog on. I can't believe its been 8 months since I blogged, well guess there is a lot of catching up to do. The kids just had birthdays last week Logan is 6 and Janae is 4, Logan started Kindergarden this year and is LOVIN it! And I started college too and LOVE it so much! I can't wait to further my education, it's an amazing thing! Adam turned 29, holy moly next year is the big year! We are in East Mesa getting cozy and comfy into our new place. So many things...my camera got ruined right before I stopped blogging and I haven't gotten it fixed yet so I have just been using my Iphone to take pictures and don't know how to transfer them to the computer so I will work on that tonight. Today is not only the beginning of the week but the beginning of forever with a new outlook on life and I am so ready for it!

CHANGE - different from what it is, to change the course of history

2010-03-09T15:51:00.000-08:00

Oh how do I adapt to the changes in my life? I am trying to keep it together because there is a reason for everything and with a little bit of faith (OR A LOT) it could only get better. Every one faces obstacles and we just learn to manage with a smile on our face and a prayer in our heart everything will be ok. I am super excited that we are back to the real life, surrounded by old friends and family, but sad that we have left sooo many friends that have been there for 4 1/2 yrs. I am so grateful for Adam's 2 jobs (his normal 6-3 job) and his/our DJ business. It keeps us afloat and we hope to continue to expand it. I think with the things that have transpired in the last 24hrs are actually a blessing in disguise.

Logan starts school in August, seriously I am so excited, he is so eager to learn. Everyday he spends at least 3hrs learning its so cute!! Today we got back from the store after he got out of his door he came to my door and opened and closed it for me, I think I want to keep him forever because he is such a gentleman and has such a sweet spirit. Janae is my super helper and my BESTIE!! She makes us crack up everyday and will instantly make you fall in love with her. I need to post pictures....ltr :) I think everything will be JUST FINE!!!

More B-Day Pics....Adam is a PRINCESS!!

2010-02-13T20:02:00.001-08:00

Kids Birthday and Christmas Pictures!

2010-02-07T10:14:00.000-08:00

Holy moly I can't believe I forgot to post pictures from my kids birthday! Sad day and I had some super duper funny ones too, then you get christmas then you get the cruise pictures :D so hang in there! I wish it would upload pictures quicker then it does so it doesn't take me a week to do this....

Christmas Time!!

2010-01-06T13:07:00.000-08:00

Here is just a couple of pics from xmas, I will get to the rest later. I need to go to the gym right now. Im going to start working out with a personal trainer starting monday so I need to get myself used to working out again since I haven't been there for 2months! Anywho trying to take family pictures with us took like 30min. Thanks Colton for the facial expression in every picture I am surprised we got what we did, only 100 pictures later :) Now Im sad, to a lot of people 5 kids isn't a lot, especially in the LDS world its common to have more than 5 but with my generation it doesn't seem like that many people are having more than 4. Example, we are at 2 and done but looking at my family picture with my mom's dad, my parents, my siblings and their spouses and down the road nieces and nephews it makes me regret not having more children because all there will be is Logan, Janae and their spouses. Do you think they will be mad at me for not having more kids so Janae will have a sister and Logan will have a brother?! :( BOO I'm depressing myself I better go to the gym now before I choose to just go pick up a soda and candy bar to make myself feel better....tear

Goodbye 2009

2009-12-29T21:22:00.000-08:00

Wow, I have been so busy. Working 5 days a week and planning christmas and everything it has been quite hectic. I'm ready for things to calm down and gain some control of my life. Maybe have a little time to myself. I just love this age of the kids right now, its so perfect, they play sooo well with each other and can keep each other entertained all day long with their imaginations. They are so cute! Santa brought Janae this awesome play house and marketplace (I will post pictures) and all of the sudden the kids play with their toys. Before Christmas I was tempted to get rid of ALL of their toys because they would never ever play with them but now I never see them. Its nice cause I can get stuff done. Santa (myself) was so nice this year. Got me lots of nice things, a whole new bedset with a zillion pillows because the $450 one we got like two years ago obviously wasn't good enough it decided to start ripping like crazy so I went out of my comfort zone and got a black, white and almost lime green set, its beautiful. I can't wait to get the whole room put together. I found a chest thing that goes at the foot of your bed that's a little darker then lime dreen and its SOOOOO perfect but I don't know how to convince Adam that its worth $200....any ideas?!?! AND the perfect, most creative lamps I've seen. I need to take a picture of this stuff. I can't believe Janae is going to be a Sunbeam, INSANE and did I tell you how happy I am that our church is moving to 1pm, they finally got the hint that 8am is human impossible working the shift that I do. CANT WAIT! About to start a movie, late!

"I GATE-PAPA"

2009-11-29T08:55:00.000-08:00

Logan is soooo funny, I woke up to finding Logan and Janae using their Gator Golf clubs to pretend and fight the Huns (from Mulan) then they went downstairs and I heard them saying, "I gate-papa" aka Great-Papa (my mom's dad who is 90) and then Logan turned the golf club into a cane, hunched over, talked in the oldest voice he could, shaking his hand in the air and proceeded to imitate their gate-papa. It was the funniest thing I ever have seen, he was saying stuff but I couldn't understand him, he was probably yelling at some kids playing on him lawn or something ;) it was sooooo funny, I wish I could have caught it on video. LOL --- LOVE YOU GATE-PAPA!!!!!!!

SHOCKERS

2009-11-22T02:18:00.000-08:00

Yeah I am home from a full filled week in Globe. I had fun but really missed my kids and hubby who I had not seen since sunday day for an hour. Nice, well we made it through the horrible traffic and opted to stay in town and eat at a oh so nice steak house place at the local casino where we got the hook up. Anyway, today we got up, hung out and took the kids to the inlaws since we both had to work tonight and dropped off our car to get an oil change. Then we walked to our most FAVORITE mexican shack, truly truly AMAZING! On the way over there we held hands, it was so nice, sometimes among the hustle and bustle with kids we forget to do the small but so important things. Ok that was the highlight of my day (besides my kids making me feel so loved, man I miss them right now). Then I got home from work, we are pushing 3am at this point, go to set the alarm for church, cause we really need to go even though I could SOOOO sleep through the whole thing and then some, I literally touched the alarm with my pointer finger and SHOCK!!! We met with a spark and it killed my alarm clock. Seriously, can anything else happen to stop us from going to church?!?! Weird, its totally totally dead, done, zip zilch nada, its a gonner. So we are going to have to rely on the kids as our alarm clock in the morning. But the problem is every time we do that they seem to sleep in. But I better get off the computer and sleep since its 3:35am, ahhhh I need to be up in 4hrs the latest. Stupid shockers :) I am in a lovey mood right now I can wait to go upstairs and squeeze my squishy!

MARICOPA I HATE YOU!!!!

2009-11-20T19:13:00.000-08:00

Here is why I hate you soooo much....
1. I haven't seen my husband all week, planned a date night and you ruined it!
2. You ruined it by closing down the ONLY, and I mean ONLY road to my house, curse you!
3. You allow passenger trains to come through and stop RIGHT over the tracks and cause a delay for 45 minutes
4. You are to dumb to realize a solution to the problem
5. You made me eat a whole king size kit kat and medium fry cause I was stressed out for sitting so long (well plus the fries were hot and fresh)
6. Non-emergency 911 for Maricopa knows nothing about whats going on in the city, idiots
7. Once again now I am too tired to go on a date night, fine I will drink 2 red bulls (and regret it later) date night back on with my orpa!
8. THANK YOU THANK YOU THAT I GET TO MOVE OUT OF THIS STUPID SUBDIVISION ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE TRACKS....CURSE YOU STUPID TRACKS!!!
9. I cannot wait to move, cause I won't have to do this stupid drive anymore
10. And last but not least Happy B-Day to my 2...I mean 3 girl friends (cause one of them is a twin :D)

SORRY FOR THE ANGER RELEASE! IT HAPPENS, ESPECIALLY IF YOU LIVE ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE TRACKS, I PROMISE YOU WOULD LOOSE IT ONE DAY TOO. Once in 4 1/2 yrs isn't too bad right?!

WATCH OUT COWBOYS HERE COMES SOME COWGIRLS

2009-11-17T12:50:00.000-08:00

What is there to do in Maricopa, a secluded city, surrounded by desert for miles and miles, no Target, mall, movie theater, bowling alley, miniature golfing, golf cart riding....ride a house! How country western can you get, but hey its super fun! I think Janae and I are wanna-be cowgirls! Logan didn't want to ride Copper, let alone, touch her but after he saw Janae he said he wanted to until he got on her....uhhhh, then he changed his mind really quickly, I had to get a picture before he got off :) because I am selfish. Janae wanted to go again and again, she even lead the horse by herself.

SHE SAID WHAT?! SHE DID WHAT?! JANAE!!!!

2009-11-17T11:22:00.000-08:00

So this morning Janae and I sent Logan off to preschool and I decided to treat her to McDonald's breakfast then go to the library. She choose where we sat, it should be no big deal right? Well there is a group of three ladies sitting three feet away from us after sitting there for a bit she pipes up, pointing to them, "Mom those girls are FAT!" WHAT are you serious? I told her so fast that we don't say that its not nice (I don't know where she got that from), then about 5 minutes later she says even louder, "MOM THOSE GIRLS AREN'T FAT!!" now it looks like I said it and she is correcting ME! Holy cow, I was embarrassed, I am not sure if they heard cause I was not looking up at this point. Nice, another five minutes pass, I am texting Adam and all of the sudden the fire alarm goes off in the whole place, immediately I look up and see Janae standing up right next to the fire alarm she just pulled, that was right next to her chair. It was going off for like 5 minutes before they tried to turn it off, they realized the screw they had to tighten to turn it off was stripped (I wonder why maybe because kids have pulled it so many times, put a stupid cover over it or don't put a table and chairs right next to it!) After 15 minutes we gave up and left, the alarm still sounding. They were on the phone when we left with the fire department or something trying to get the thing turned off. LOL - - - - way to start a morning huh?! Finally made it to the library and left there with no catastrophes :)

There's Something In The Air

2009-11-11T12:26:00.000-08:00

Last night on the way home Adam serenaded Janae for like 30 minutes on our way home, it was so cute. She kept saying again again. And he had to look at her when he was singing, eventually he couldn't think of anymore church songs and went to Christmas songs. Wow am I ready now for Christmas, its all I can think about. Just the smell of it and being with family, its the best!

I love my husband, he is the best, very supportive and helpful. I am so lucky, I can't believe we are coming up on 6 years of being married and Dec 19th will be 7 years since we have been together. He is starting to communicate more and more and I love it, its so great that my husband can communicate instead of being mute lol --- Love ya

Zoey Jade's Debute!! Happy Birthday!!

2009-11-11T08:01:00.001-08:00

Surprise trip to Flagstaff!
Sheena stop taking pictures, can't see!

Love love loved seeing our friends in Flagstaff and sooo glad they met up with us for dinner. It was one memorable night! lol
HOTTIE TOTTIE!!

Ahh so cute, Jen hurry post this on your facebook! :D
Sexy Mama's!!

Oh Logan, you don't know how cute you are!

2009-11-09T10:42:00.000-08:00

We were driving home from Fry's and Logan says the following

Logan: "Is the earth a big huge planet?"
Mommy: "Yes it is!"
Logan: "Its so big I can't even carry it!"

Can't describe how cute you are, the next segment shows his manly side...you gotta go when you gotta go!

Just pulled up to Costco a couple of days ago Logan said he had to pee I told him ok lets go inside and I didn't even get a chance to get out of the car and he was already out of the door with like 20 people around in front of everyone started to pee....NIIICE!!

The next morning I was out front talking to the neighbor turned around and he was in his one piece pj's unzipped them, was standing by the tree, hanging out and all, about to water the tree. He is trying to be water aware, trying to save me money by not using the toilet. How lovely!!

And Janae right now keeps saying she quits!! I love my babies!

LOGAN'S FIRST FIELDTRIP!!

2009-10-26T17:30:00.000-07:00

Today Logan's preschool class went on a field trip to the Science Center and I got to be a chaperone. It was so fun! We also took one of Logan's schoolmates, so in reality it was like I had 3 kids. Silly Sheena doesn't believe in flats or tennis shoes unless your hiking so I wore like 4" heels. I didn't think it would be THAT big of deal....but after chasing JANAE and taking kids back and forth to the bathroom cause they all couldn't pee at the same time and walking from the parking garage all the way to the center and back, PHEEEWWWWW!!! I was tired! We went into the planetarium show which was cool, Janae might have ADHD, she will NEVER listen to me and can't sit still to save her life. She eventually winded up laying on her stomach on my lap with her head at my knees, pulled up her shirt so I could tickle her back....wow Janae I have spoiled you too much! Luckily when we got home the kids went down for a nap and so did I....I will post pictures when I have more time, HI-HO, HI-HO, ITS OFF TO WORK I GO!

MOMMY FOR HIRE?!?!

2009-10-22T14:23:00.000-07:00

Yesterday I was doing Janaes hair and she didn't really want me doing it, turns around and says

"YOUR FIRED!!"

Nice try, its not THAT easy! I'm in it for the long haul and am sure that is only the first of many "Your fired" statements!

Betty Crocker....I Think NOT!!

2009-10-15T21:16:00.000-07:00

WOW WOW WOW, I out did myself today. I thought I would be so nice and make dinner instead of letting the food go bad and just go out to eat. Ahhh cause that would be too easy....NOOOOO
(1) food to prep, (2) oven to heat up, (3) house to cool down because of the oven, (4) recipe to watch on tv a million times to get it right that was dvr'd, (5) dinner mess to clean up, (6) dishes to wash, (7) dishes to put away (8) food to put away, (9) counters to clean, (10) floor to sweep, nothing....maybe that's why I like to eat out so much. All you have to do is (1) order your food and (2) pay the bill

So here is how my night went
Decided to make lemony shrimp scampi pasta with roasted broccoli, sounds good huh, looks even better when a chef makes it. I started to make it, we are on a good roll I make my own broth with the shrimp shells, onion and some water. I let it simmer for 20 minutes then was supposed to drain it but into a pan that was on the stove instead without thinking I let it drain into the sink, broth and everything that was going to make the sauce for my noodles gone. So I now have cold broccoli, noodles and shrimp scampi but nothing to pull it all together with, I was going to throw the towel in but Adam came to the rescue and as usual fixed it and made it so good, better than I probably would have done. So I decided to make cookies, well Adam had to get a head start on them bc I had company when I joined the party I ended up getting flour all over the kitchen and realized I used powdered sugar instead of regular sugar and forgot to put my butter in which shouldn't be a big deal but I had quadrupled the batch so Adam again came to the rescue and mixed the butter in the whole batch. Now I sit here with every dish used that I own and now I have to wash them and for what 10lbs of cookies that are going to make me more out of shape than I already am?!?! Man I need to go to the gym right now!!

And that's why I don't cook :( I suck at it

CHICKEN AND PEE-WATER

2009-10-11T14:49:00.000-07:00

Here is a conversation that happened in our car yesterday

ADAM: Is it wrong to feed a bird chicken?
ME: Is it wrong to feed a human human?
ADAM: Uh yeah...
ME/ADAM: Hahaha
LOGAN: That's not even funny guys
ADAM: Oh is that too dumb for your intelligence?

Logan is so cute!!

Then this conversation happened this morning

LOGAN: Mom, looooook....(pee on his bathroom floor)
ME: That was from Ginger huh
JANAE: No it was me
ME: It was you?! No way, what is it...
JANAE: Water
ME: Yeah?
JANAE: Yep
ME: What happened? {about to go smell it to see if she is serious, and I believed her}
JANAE: {whisper} uh, no...I think it was Ginger
ME: I thought so {yeah I wasn't really going to smell it}
JANAE: She's a bad girl. I think we need to get a new dog

MUD PIES FOR BREAKFAST MOMMY

2009-10-08T09:32:00.000-07:00

My kids were so nice in letting me sleep in and wake up on my own yesterday. This is what I woke up to at 8am. I love their creativity!! The dog got in on the action too!

AN THE MOTHER OF THE DAY AWARD GOES TO...

2009-09-29T11:57:00.000-07:00

NOT ME!! Sunday Adam was great, he played lots of games with the kids and I was like what is he trying to show me up? So I had it set in my mind Monday it would be Logan, Janae and Mommy's "DAY OF FUN" but yeah it didn't happen like that I woke up with a splitting headache and pretty much made a dent in my couch all day. I didn't take medicine because I kept saying I just need caffeine so I eventually gave up and got a Dr. Pepper at 4pm after watching The First 48 all day because I couldn't get off the couch I was in so much pain, I guess it didn't really help then I had a sugar free red bull, an hour and a half later another red bull but then some tylenol because I realized it was not a caffeine headache just the worst headache of my life, then 5 hours later I thought what the heck why not a Monster (my headache was gone) but then when I decided to go to bed at 3:45am it came back....Lesson learned?? I'm addicted to energy drinks even though they don't do anything for me they just taste AWESOME! :)

This morning I was regretting staying up so late (I did have to work though) but I came to the conclusion that they should legalize speed for moms, just a little but enough to become SUPER MOM!

Mini Recap

2009-09-29T10:09:00.000-07:00

Since I despised my new camera I didn't download the pics til just now. Here is a mini recap before I have to pick up Logan from school of what has gone on since the end of August :)

Ooops I guess it turned out to be a full blown recap - captions to come later

Here is just a few cause I need to get off the computer, it is burning my lap I have been sitting here for so long, why oh why does that ALWAYS happen?! And I tell Adam he needs to time himself when he is on the computer, looks like I will be doing the same...

PS Adam is the best he just played bingo, gold fish and candyland - just for today he gets the 'PARENT OF THE DAY AWARD' but tomorrow its on like Donkey Kong

CELEBRATE!!

2009-09-27T16:58:00.000-07:00

WOW I'm so excited. Two months ago I lost my $400 camera, not my proudest moment. I couldn't for the life of me remember where I last had it. It contained pictures from out family outting to SeaWorld and I was so sad it was such a great camera and I finally caved in and bought another one but it SUCKED in comparison. So I decided to organize my game closet because it had some boxes that needed to be thrown away and the kids would just put their games right inside the door when they were done playing with them and I get to Logan's birthday decoration bag and I knew there was a thing of stickers I had bought for the kids when they cleaned their room and helped around the house and I lifted up the bag and there, sitting beautifully was my CAMERA!!! I felt like I was in a dream holding out my camera twirling in a circle just me and my camera! Haha it was a beautiful thing so needless to say I am back in business and will take mucho picturos! And I have to upload our vaca pics - tata for now!

ROCKSTAR

2009-09-17T18:27:00.000-07:00

Today the kids and I met Adam for lunch at Cafe Rio. We were in the middle of eating, I look at Logan he had his eyes closed and was completely rocking out with his air guitar to the song that was on in the background. It was so funny, he did it for like two minutes. I was silently (cause I didn't want to disturb him) rolling on the floor. It was truly truly the cutest thing I have ever seen and that is why I just love him to pieces!

I took a picture too

RED BULL OR BUST

2009-09-15T11:43:00.000-07:00

WOW I have no idea how I am awake and even functioning right now. Last night I had to work late and didn't get to bed until 4:30ish and got up at 7:30 with the kids. Janae tried to wake me up at 6:45 but I wasn't having that so she just sat on my bed and read her scriptures for 45minutes. Now normally it wouldn't be a problem because I would make them breakfast and go back to sleep and get up when I can actually be some use as a mother. The kids are really good except there is not a lock on the freezer and Janae has shark teeth so she helps herself to the OtterPops, but if that's all I have to worry about I'm golden! Anyways, I got the kids breakfast and was like ok I can lay down for 45 minutes before I have to take Logan to school. Then I choose not too cause I didn't feel that tired and I would just nap after I dropped him off. I went to the bank, grocery shopping for the baby shower tonight, came home, made THEBOMB.COM SALSA with my sista ate a lot of it, chased my dog down the street, (still want to nap cause I know that this isn't human like to run off 3 hrs of sleep) but now I have to feed the kids lunch, got to a meeting at work at 1pm then decorate for the shower, friends coming over oh yeah I really should shower and wash my hair I look tore up. Then put the kids down, and finally find my pillow and blanket and fan that mutes out the sound that has been calling my name since 7:30 this morning! .............. I'm not even tired which is so weird

Maybe drinking a Red Bull at 3am has something to do with it....I might hit another one up!

BIG CITY HERE WE COME!!

2009-09-12T08:35:00.000-07:00

So this is only what 5 years in the making, but we are finally getting out of Maricopa and moving close to family and civilization! We are so excited, no more driving 45 minutes to get to my moms...so nice!

Man I need to post pictures from when the kids and I went camping with my parents and stuff, ok I will get on that asap, but not today :)

4th Of July

2009-08-15T09:16:00.000-07:00

Found some pics I didn't upload from 7/4/09...I was very proud of Adam for getting Janae so cute normally he gets her ready then I get her undressed and redressed. But this time I couldn't get over what a great job he did!

The pictures are backwards from how the night went I'm too lazy right now to rearrange all of them. We went to Pacana Park in Maricopa for their festives and fireworks, it was such a great atmosphere, they put a movie on for the kids in one section, they had a DJ, tons and tons of vendors with lots and lots of fatty foods, lots of port-o-pottys, it was a great time!! Logan was so glued to the fireworks I don't think he breathed once :) I love love love him!

Lost and Not Found

2009-08-15T08:58:00.000-07:00

I have slacked off on lots of things like uploading our pictures from taking the kids to Seaworld with my baby brother, and taking pictures of the kids in general. Well, here comes Logan's first day of school and for some reason I didn't look for my camera until the morning of 1st day of school and I couldn't find it anywhere, then I realized I have no idea where it is. My nice camera, gone, lost somewhere in the world, probably all lonely. I am so mad, cause I have missed out on lots of pictures its been about a month and a half since I've seen it. So if you've seen it in the lost and found please let me know! :)

Like I said before Logan started preschool, I know he is almost old enough to start kindergarden, but his birthday is late so he is in preschool. I can already tell he is going to become a whiz because his 2nd day of school he said octopus, orange, owl, and other 'O' words have the sounds A, O, Ooo. It was so cute to hear him say that!

In a book he made that was "ALL ABOUT ME" it said things like, this is my family (he had to draw a picture), I am 4 years old, My favorite toy is....the Hulk Transformer (picture drawn), my favorite color is....red, orange, yellow, green and red, I live...in a house, I woke up at...10am (weird cause he woke me up at 6:30), I go to sleep at....68:00pm (everything to him is 68 lol!) I love it all about him, he is my little lovebuggy!!

Janae, is the biggest cuddle bug. The day she decides she is too grown up to cuddle anymore will be a very very sad day. Every morning she just crawls into bed with me and will lay there silent for like an hour then tells me, "Mom the suns awake!" She loves to get "Pretty like Mommy!"

Does anyone have some pills that will make my kids not grow up cause this is as perfect as it gets!!!

POTTY INTRUDER

2009-07-23T11:35:00.000-07:00

This morning I made the kids breakfast, they were sitting there eating it and I was cleaning it up when the bathroom door downstairs shut. I turn and looked at it and was like what the heck, the dog is in a stiff position just looking at the door. I was thinking uh our doors don't just shut by themself that was weird. Then like 4 seconds later I hear the toilet seat go up, now my heartbeat is skyrocketing cause someone has broken into my house to use the bathroom. Quickly I was like maybe it Adam, then I was like no he would have said something to me. What should I do grab a knife, call Adam, make a run for the front door, say hello, scream, just wait and see if they kill me....then I hear them peeing...now the inside of my body is totally freaking out right about now. But I'm froze, then I turn to the kitchen table and realize Janae is gone....to the bathroom. So she is the potty intruder! I felt pretty dumb for jumping so fast to those thoughts, but who knows someone could have broken into my house to use my bathroom HEHEHE

Then I google a picture of a toilet and this comes up, could you image trying to go to the bathroom with that looking right at ya

"I GOT MY COUPON"

2009-07-23T11:25:00.001-07:00

So Logan is obsessed with Transformers, totally loves it! He has the bed set, a big poster in his room, the big action figures, little action figures, and HIS COUPON! My mom gave him a coupon one day for $5 off a costume for Halloween, 20% of birthday stuff and a color picture of a transformer. He colored the picture and was in heaven. Carrying it around with him everywhere, to the grocery store, the babysitters, grandparents, cousins, everywhere. You would think it was the coolest toy in the planet, nope just a piece of paper. WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THAT?! He thinks his coupon is for $5000, its pretty cute. Needless to say his 5th b-day party will be transformers so come in your very best, if your a guy and then if your a girl you get to be a mermaid cause that's what Janae is wanting and they are having their birthday party together since they are 2 days apart. Very excited for Ariel to meet Megatron!! :o)

BLUE EYES

2009-07-07T14:23:00.000-07:00

I am sitting here trying to find a place to stay in San Diego tomorrow (why we do everything on short notice, no one knows) so Janae is talking, talking, talking, talking my ear off and wants my undivided attention, wants to crawl all over me, and its very distracting! So she wants me to watch her do something and says the following

"Mom, look at me"...."Mom, look at me"...."Mom, look at my eyes"...."Look at my blue eyes mom"...."Mom I said look at me"...."Mom...1...2...YOUR NOT LISTENING TO ME!"

She is very proud of that she has blue eyes like me :)

Now she has currently sang You Are My Sunshine 7 times, oh she is my little character!!

Now she is bawling cause Adam started singing that song and she wanted to sing it - oh the joys of a daughter just like me!

BAD SHEENA - NO TEXTING

2009-07-06T12:41:00.000-07:00

I should have just crawled into my comfortable bed, with my great comforter, turned my floor fan on, put my sun-shielding/eye soothing/eye cover thing on and went to bed for the rest of the day. I had some near fatal accidents that happened yesterday...I learned some great lessons

7:50pm on my way home from work about to turn left into my neighborhood. Saw a huge truck coming towards me but thought it was going to turn left so I started to go then realized NOPE he is coming through the light so I had to jerk the wheel so I didn't get slammed into, in my little red car. I would have died, very close actually, and I was on the phone. LESSON LEARNED: Don't be on the phone

9:30pm on my way to the gym, just went over the oh so lovely railroad tracks, wasn't paying attention because I was texting, looked up literally with a hald a second to spare before I slammed into a guy walking 2mph across the road in an unlite area with dark clothes on. If I had looked up 1 second later I would have slammed into him going 40mph. No joke that was so scary, luckily I jumped into the other lane. LESSON LEARNED: NEVER TEXT - DORK

Another thing I do on a daily basis - put my makeup on in the car cause I don't have time to do it at home, not enough time, so with my 45 minute drive to everywhere I just do it in the car, I always am swerving into the other lanes, going off the road. Pretty much just the WORST driver, I'm surprised I haven't gotten pulled over for possible DUI LESSON LEARNED: DO MAKEUP AT HOME OR NOT AT ALL

LIFE LESSON LEARNED - - - - YOU SUCK AT DRIVING AND IT SHOULD BE A CRIME FOR ME TO BE OPERATING A VEHICLE!! (HEY ATLEAST I CAN ADMIT IT, RIGHT:o) )

My Fishy

2009-07-03T10:28:00.000-07:00

Logan woke up one day and decided, he look I can swim!! A hug accomplishment, I was very excited! I love my little fish, we now currently live at the pool

Then we have Janae who is a DIVA, she likes to swim too but loves to lay out more :)

I WAS JUST WORRIED AND KEPT ASKING IF HE WAS OK THE WHOLE TIME CAUSE LAST TIME WE RODE ONE HE PUKED IN A BAG BUT THIS TIME WE DIDN'T HAVE A BAG :) IT WAS SUCH A FUN TRIP AND IT WAS NICE NOT HAVING THE KIDS CAUSE WE HAVEN'T HAD A REAL VACATION LIKE THAT SINCE LOGAN WAS 8 MONTHS OLD.

Oh and Kelly I found the PERFECT PERFECT house for you and Raul and there would be plenty of room for us to live there too, its right on the beach, massive, gorgeous and for sale!! Then I am ok with you living on the beach cause its only 5 hours away!

SOOOO UPSET!!!

2009-06-22T22:54:00.000-07:00

So on our first computer...I will get to my trip later...so our first laptop deleted our pics because I thought I had transferred them to Adobe Photoshop or something to view and edit them in another program and deleted them in the regular "pictures" folder on the desktop and now they are gone, I can see them in that dumb program but they are blurry and small and not the real pictures, AHHHH. Did I ever take my stupid computer to someone who can find them and fix it because those pictures are all the way back from Logan being about 8 months old to about a year ago, well we get another laptop and about two weeks ago I deleted some extra pictures and went back into my laptop while we were on vacation to look at something and realized ALL of my pictures were gone except the pictures that I had deleted. WHAT?! How that happened I have no idea, so now I have like no pictures from the past 4 years, I want to punch a wall and break my hand I am so mad, lol! (Adam did that by the way) I would start screaming right now but I accidentally took Adams vicodin (sp) instead of my medicine....oops!! But I feel all relaxed right now. So needless to say this is probably going to cost a lot of money but Adam is taking his happy mexi-butt down to some computer store tomorrow and turning both of them in and I don't care how much it costs I want whatever they can get back back so I can go on happy until I do it again. Anyways....

Now a quick re-run of our vacation, we had a honeymoon suite that sucked big except we had a panoramic view of the ocean with a jacuzzi tub on the balcony, we went on a dinner cruise that was soooo fun, went to Seaworld I was like a kid in the candy store, its way better than Disneyland until Adam said Sheena this is just a glorified zoo, that costs more money and you have to still pay for some rides. But whatever I loved those bat rays, I think they loved me too one kept come for a massage. Anyways I am too dizzy so I better stop typing. And sorry April B. for calling at 10pm and talking your ear off I didn't realized I had taken some drugs that would make me talk forever! :) NIGHT

P.S. YOU WOULD THINK SINCE ADAM BROKE HIS HAND HE WOULD NOT BE PLAYING VIDEO GAMES ANYMORE SINCE HE ONLY HAS ONE HAND, NOPE LADIES HE HAS WORKED THE SYSTEM AND EVEN THOUGH HE CAN'T DO ANYTHING LIKE PUT HIS SOCKS ON OR TIE HIS SHOES OR WIPE HE FIGURED OUT HOW TO PLAY HIS DUMB GAME! Sorry for the extra info, okay I will stop typing now. But this doesn't happen often so I wouldn't complain

More pics to come

2009-06-14T14:55:00.000-07:00

but after we get back from vacation, Adam and I are going on a honeymoon. To celebrate our 5 yr and to get away before he has to go back to work, we are taking advantage of this short term disability thing!

2009-06-10T09:03:00.000-07:00

I suppose I should update my blog since I just blog stalked everyone elses and mine sits here so out-dated. I only have half of the pictures I took cause the other ones are at my moms so I will post the most recent one

These first couple of pictures is from Adam playing candyland with the kids and everytime Janae picked up a card she would throw her hands up in the air and run around saying YEAH I DID IT, I DID IT!! It was super cute and then Logan was doing this donkey kick, lol. They sure had fun, except when Logan didn't win but we are working on that

Right before my sister left for Colorado we got a family shot, no makeup on, oh well can't always look perfect right jk

BLOG BLOG BLOG BLOG BLOG FOR BELUGA!!

2009-05-13T09:00:00.000-07:00

So lets see what I have not blogged about for almost a month. My sister moved to Colorado yesterday with her new hubby...not to thrilled about it except it will be a great (free) place to go to when we visit the snow. She's my only sister and she is growing out of her bratty teenager stage (love ya) so we are getting closer and then what does she do, move! She was my full time babysitter practically, my kids are going to miss her and Chad so much. They love them to sooo much!!

Logan is totally addicted to puzzles and does them everyday it seems like. Well the 100 peices were way too easy for him so we bought 2 300 piece ones and he did one all by himself yesterday, it took him almost all day but he did it. I think that is amazing, he clearly has patience for a 4yr old, now if only he could have that patience with his sister we would be doing great!! Also yesterday morning I was getting ready and heard a blood-curdling scream coming from Logan I ran into his room to find his zipper pj's stuck half way down blocked by him YOOHOO. What the heck am I supposed to do? I tried to zip it down with out hurting him, he screamed even louder so I just had to yank on it really hard then he was free. Poor baby...lesson learn always wear underwear!!

I finally went to the gym here in Maricopa, its really really really tiny, and always packed cause it's the only one, but heck its a gym and I don't have to run in the 100 plus degree weather and I FELL IN LOVE!! I forgot how much I love going to the gym, so hopefully I can get this but to look like a ghetto booty cause you know all of our hubbies like em and we want em!!

4 Down...

2009-04-25T10:49:00.000-07:00

Yesterday my little sister got hitched! It was a super fun day from getting our hair done to taking family pictures, partying it up, shoving cake in the face, destroying their car, taking home the bottom piece of their cake made of rice krispies...its HUGE! Chad's family is a blast, they all danced and everyone got out and danced to the chicken dance which was funny! Anyway I have pictures I will post but to lazy to go find my camera and do all that hard work right now :)

WHAT IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD?!

2009-04-20T17:12:00.000-07:00

So I just saw on the news that a photo radar van got shot up and the man inside died. The reason it got shot up is because some punk guy hates the fact that he can't go 90mph. So to prevent from getting caught by the cameras set up all along the freeways he put a cover over his license plate. He got mad when he saw the radar van so decided to kill someone over it...an innocent man who was on the phone with his wife. So sad...but to make it even better (not really) when the news crew was doing their story a car drove up and said I hope they find him not guilty because he was in the right. WHAT?!?! Then Adam's boss that is was the coolest thing ever, he laughed about it and said I am glad someone finally shot one up! ARE YOU SERIOUS?!?!

WHAT IN THE WORLD IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE?!?!?! You have no sense of right verse wrong, you think its ok to kill innocent people, I seriously cannot believe it! I am so upset who in the world honestly thinks it funny? If any of you think this is funny and you are glad it happened I am interested to hear why so please let me know...but know this KARMA SUCKS!!

WOW

2009-04-18T21:37:00.000-07:00

See I do so good for while then I decide ah I can slack off...its been one of those weeks. Yesterday I did nothing, well the kids got breakfast, lunch and dinner and I cleaned up after them so I guess thats something.

We got our new puppy on Tuesday and wow is it more work then I thought it was going to be, lots of peeing and pooping, but she is getting better. She is so sweet but I can see the min pin trying to come out she is going to be a little spit fire. Janae LOVES her to death but doesn't know her boundaries so I have a feeling that Ginger isn't going to like her to much, she runs whenever she sees Janae. (I don't know if I have posted any of this) I am overly tired last night I couldn't fall asleep til 4:15...stupid energy pills!! Then I got up with Janae at 6:45, took a little nap on the couch but with Janae jumping on me and her and Logan fighting it wasn't the best nap. Ahhhh!! I am going to go crash PEACE

BIRTHDAY EASTER/WEEKEND

2009-04-12T16:44:00.000-07:00

Happy Easter to ya! Today is one of my many birthday celebrations for the week. Don't you love how your birthday is all week? Well if yours isn't I highly suggest you make it that way, cause its the only way to go. So we started it off by Adam taking Friday off and I had him build me a pavers deck in our backyard which took from 11am to 6:30, it was super fun. The kids jumped on the trampoline the whole day and played in dirt. Good times, then we had Barros for dinner (one of my ultimate favorites) and then watched a movie (I fell asleep). Saturday I got my hair done, my friend also curled my extensions and put them in, my sister took me out to lunch to Pita Jungle (another AMAZING place, kind of hippy, sooo good), I went out with my friend and got a shirt for going out with Adam, for dinner we drove 55 minutes to get to a place called Popo's (again AWESOME!!) and I was boring so we just went home and watched a movie (I fell asleep again). This morning we went to church, the easter bunny came for the first time, it was so fun to see the joy in their eyes! Tried to finish the movie from last night, fell asleep again :) woke up and now I am having all my family over for birthday/easter dinner. So if you want to hang out sometime we have a really good deal on bowling passes, and would love to go with whoever wants to go!!!! Its super cheap! So let me know :)

I will post some pictures later

WHAT WOULD YOUR HUSBAND DO??

2009-04-10T19:39:00.000-07:00

So as you know we moved into a new house, well we left behind our trampoline cause how in the world do you move a 14' wide trampoline when you don't know where the tool is to take off the springs and its 8 o'clock at night....which would your husband think of...

A. Find the tool, disassemble it, load it in truck, take to new house and reassemble it?

B. Leave it there, it isn't worth the work

C. Roll it the 1.5 miles to your new house...yes really roll it

or

D....what my husband thought of

LOAD IT ON TOP OF THE SUV WHILE HE LAYS ON IT TO KEEP IT FROM FALLING OF AND DRIVE THE 1.5 MILES LIKE THAT (pictures to show how HILARIOUS it was)

THE SUPER SOAKER 500

2009-04-09T11:15:00.000-07:00

Today has become clean the bathrooms day, something I don't enjoy doing cause Logan doesn't get the whole don't pee on the toilet seat thing yet. So I get done and take out their trash can and was like oh I have never washed out the trash can before I should do it. And my trash can was in the garage still from 5 days ago when I emptied the trash and then Janae's diaper pail that was in the garage so I was like I will just wash them all out. I finished with the diaper pail which had some pee in the grooves and right when the wate hit it it squirted right back in my face, my clean face, clean hair, clean body that I just washed! EEEWWWW it was the nastiest thing ever. That totally beats out cleaning the toilet seat, so I will never clean that again! Stupid nozzle!

GO MOM!!! GO MOM!!! GO MOM!!!

2009-04-09T08:33:00.000-07:00

I have to do a shout out for my mommmy! I am soooo proud of her, on Tuesday she walked 2.25 miles, yesterday she walked 2 miles and today she walked 1.5 miles! She is going to be the next "Biggest Looser". After watching an episode with her where they all had to do a 1/2 marathon I told her if a 350/400 pound person can do it you can do two miles. And so she did it! I am so happy you have no idea, so watch out cause pretty soon we are going to be seeing one HOT GRANDMA!!

JUST KEEP WALKING, JUST KEEP WALKING, WALKING, WALKING....YEEHAA!

BEHIND MY CLOSET DOORS

2009-04-06T16:53:00.000-07:00

I don't understand the purpose of having to hang up your clothes after you try them on and then decided that shirt makes you look pregnant and so do the next 5 and who in the heck wants to hang up a shirt you are mad at so you just throw it on the floor. Its way less work to just throw it on the floor. I need to create something the eliminate all of that work and nonsense...or maybe that is just called a nanny.

So I don't know why I try on so many shirts when last week I tried the same ones on and decided I hated them, can my body really look good a week later to were I want to wear that shirt, negative. And because of that the floor of my closet takes a beating. If I tell Adam I cleaned our room I am really just throwing all of my clothes and anything else I don't want to take the time to really put away behind my closet doors. And it has gotten to the point of almost no return when I decided I seriously have to do something since now I really have nothing left on the hangers and I can't keep buying more clothes when I have a zillion laying on the floor in a gigantic pile. So after about a month I did it, I washed the dirty one and hung up the clean ones and now there is room to walk around my "walk in closet". WOOHOO!! I know one of my sister-in-laws knows what I am talking about cause I have been told/and seen that her bedroom is just like my closet. So I am soooo glad I know that I am not the ONLY one like this.

Feel free to make me feel better and call yourself out and tell me what room in your house is like my closet

6 Days to go...but who's counting??

2009-04-05T15:43:00.000-07:00

Until we get our baby girl, she still doesn't have a name. So I came up with a list and Adam narrowed it down to three. So I want your opinion one last time. What do you think would fit a miniature pinscher thats black and brown...

1. Daisy
2. Ginger
3. Meerah (but I don't like how its spelt)
Boy oh boy is my son a duplicate of his daddy. Adam since the day he was born has been a nagging pest to his mom, then to me. She even warned me, do you know what your getting into. He will do things that you hate just to be annoying...and yep he does. Of course he didn't do it when we were dating, only once we got married. And lately Logan has been doing it NON STOP to Janae and she sure does hate it! So they have been fighting quite a bit lately. If she is in a bad mood Logan thinks it the perfect time to want to be all lovey and cuddly and of course she is like me and just wants her space but he won't give it to her...and then he laughs once she starts screaming or something.....OH ADAM HOW I LOVE THEE!!!

AH IF YOU COULD ONLY HEAR MY HOUSE RIGHT NOW...SCREAMING, CRYING, LOGAN YELLING AND CRYING, ADAM MOCKING LOGAN, ME TAKING LOGAN'S GUM FROM HIM BECAUSE HE KEEPS PLAYING WITH IT, JANAE YELLING AT ME TO NOT TAKE HIS GUM, HER CURRENTLY THROWING MY LOTION AT ME....I think its time to go to bed :o)

Adam's Birthday Present - Teeth Whitener

2009-03-30T11:51:00.000-07:00

So Adam and the kids are playing in our bedroom finding colors throughout the room and Adam said, Lets find 5 things that are white and after a couple of things adam said look at me Logan do you see something white (smiling all wide) and logan said your eyes. Adam said anything else (smiling even bigger) and he said nope. I said what color are daddy's teeth and he said YELLOW! HAHA that was awesome! So now Adam gets teeth whitener for his birthday, ah maybe for Father's Day so we can have them white sonner than later. There is your laugh for the day :D

Suggestions

2009-03-29T21:15:00.001-07:00

I am wanting to workout from home and need to tone up and loose the weight I just gained back and currently gaining from have a huge buffet tonight for Stephen's going away party. Ah I feel so gross, I was going to workout after everyone left but people are still here. I thought everyone would have been gone a long time ago since they got here at 3 but we are all still partying, playing the WII and Guitar Hero. So anyway I am wanting to find some workouts to do from home since there isn't a good gym here in Maricopa so I need some good suggestions on what to do. I know you know some so please post a comment....areas I am looking to workout are, my arms (to shrink and tone) my shoulders (to tone), my stone (to flatten and harden), love handles (to disappear), butt (to tone and to look like Beyonce), my thighs (to tone and shrink), calves (get a little bit bigger and muscular)

I am not vain, I just want to feel good and I feel awesome after working out I just don't know what to do. If anyone wants to workout with me let me know cause I am open for having a partner too :) THANKS

B-Ball SUNS vs JAZZ

2009-03-27T07:31:00.000-07:00

Before Stephen leaves for bootcamp I thought it would be a great idea for the two BFF's to have a last HOORAH! So I bought some tickets online and planned it with Adam and Rachel to surprise Stephen. I don't have patience worth beans and Adam wasn't going to take pictures at the game cause he said that's dumb so we decided to tell Stephen so I could take a couple of pictures. Adam handed him the printed off ticket and he was like what's this? Then he was so excited when he realized what it was.

They said it was they best game they have ever seen, if you walked it on tv Wednesday night you know what they were talking about. It was a really close game and it came down to like the last 5 seconds. I definitely got some brownie points for thinking of that idea :o)

5 TOPPINGS OF PEPPERONI

2009-03-24T22:31:00.000-07:00

(the picture doesn't even do it justice of how much there was)
Yeah you heard it right, Adam and I went to Barros the other night and he said to the kid at the register you know how your mega meat has 5 toppings of meat, well can I get 5 toppings of pepperoni instead? The guy was like are you serious? He was like yep that would be sooo good. The kid said you know that will probably kill you and we are not responsible if you have a heart attack in the booth :) But so we got half veggie and half 5 layer pepperoni and the guy said he would leave a line between the two so there wouldn't be a puddle of grease in the middle.

......

We got the pizza, Adam ate it and LOVED it! He was like wow it's so good. And he showed me a bite and the pepperoni was thicker than the bread. That is definitely a once in a lifetime thing I guess he can check it off his list. I personally don't know how he did it and I am seriously curious to see how many grams of fat there was in it and how many calories he ate

I Love to LAUGH HAHAHAHA!!!

2009-03-04T15:18:00.001-08:00

I went to Hobby Lobby with my sister and on our way out Logan asked if he could have everything that was in the checkout line, but I said no until he asked for silly string. I was like GENIUS Adam is waiting for us at my mom's so we will give daddy a little surprise! So after we got there I told Adam me and Logan had a surprise outside for him and he had to close his eyes so he comes outside and I said "Go Logan!" and we let him have it, yeah I was cracking up laughing but he didn't think it was too funny at all. As you can see from his super happy face :o) It totally made my day LOVE YA BABE!!

So Lonely, I'm so lonely....

2009-03-04T15:07:00.001-08:00

That song is stuck in my head. I am not really I got to hangout with some girls from high school that I haven't hung out with since high school and I have been graced with their presence 3 times in a month! lol, it's crazy how much our lives have changed since 9th grade. I have pictures, but my camera is in my car and I don't want to walk out there right at this moment. But besides that I don't have anything to blog about, I'm just chillin out my moms house this week getting ready for Ashley's bridal shower. I am so glad I have so many people on my side and his side that are helping with it cause ya know I get stressed out. :) Anywho there is a pile of paperwork staring at me that I need to go through so off I go. I will really try to post the pics of the girls later today. Tata

Cousin Love

2009-02-27T07:46:00.000-08:00

Logan absolutely loved Price hanging out for the afternoon, they did boy things, played with cars, build legos, played follow the leader, talked ran around my mom's house, laughed and just had a GREAT time! Then after Janae woke up from her nap we went for a walk to visit my baby dog. Logan pulled them all the way around the block, it was so cute. I took a million pictures but with this trio who wouldn't :)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GISELLE MY LOVE!!

2009-02-26T22:04:00.000-08:00

SHE'S HERE!! SHE'S HERE!! I am so excited to welcome my first niece to Aaron and Jill's family. She is a doll! Here are some pictures I took
She's a very very hungry girl and was going to town on her hands and cords :)

Don't worry she does have bracelets and bows but they won't let her wear any yet since she is in the NICU, but she is doing great and should be out very shortly.
We are pretty sure she has a dimple on her left cheek, you can't tell in this picture but its there

Mommy finally got to hold her for longer than 30 seconds, instant love <3 (that's a heart lol)

Look at Jill's super cute hair...thanks for doing it "for me" you look FABULOUS!

MY BABY GIRL (well not mine, but I do have partial claim on her ;) she is too cute!

WOOHOO!!! My Niece is on her way!!

Newest Addition to our now Family of 5!!

2009-02-17T14:14:00.000-08:00

Sorry if your disappointed but there is no bun in my oven! Just a sweet little dog, that is actually going to be ready to come home on my birthday. But she is nameless and I am searching everywhere trying to come up with the perfect name. I want something that means something beautiful like princess, adore, my love, sweet, or something (corny I know) super cute and that will fit her.

Here is a couple of things...yes they are corny but that's why I need help

Dulce - Sweet
Min Kara - My Love
Amira (A-mee-rah) - Princess in Arabic
Aida - Princess
Ena - Princess in Hebrew then I was thinking her name would be EnaBelle
Xenia - Warrior Princess (since I always get called that)
Ava

I LOVE HER AND CAN'T WAIT TIL SHE IS HERE!!! When I found out she was mine I was giddy like a school girl in love :o) And the kids already love her too, Janae does the kissy thing and says come here baby. Logan wants a baby brother but this is a close as he is going to get so he's excited too!

Sooo...my birthday's coming up and here's some suggestions for my present...

2009-02-16T08:46:00.000-08:00

Look at the little baby!! How can you say no?!?!
AWWW!!! I NEED HER!! Yes at this point it has become a NEED not a WANT :)

So there you have it, and if you want to pitch in a few bucks for my present that is totally cool too!! OR if you have one you want to just give to me, I can't say NO! Thanks for thinking about it ;0) And remember you have a birthday coming too!!

Workout/Dance/Oh No I Didn't Just Do That Class

2009-02-13T13:55:00.000-08:00

On Wednesday my girlfriend asked me if I wanted to come to her gym and do a hip-hop class. I thought it would be really fun so I drove to Chandler and we are walking into the class and I see the girls rolling their hips and doing body rolls and all sorts of exotic things. And I was like what in the world is this, I thought it was hip-hop and she was like oh I guess its STRIPTEASE...WHAT?!?!

At first I just kept laughing but then I let my guard down and moved it like I didn't know I could :) It was fun and I learned a routine that I went home and showed my honey. Hehe So if you want to surprise your man with a little sexy dance you know who to call! I've got to admit its pretty HOT and come to find out it is a good workout cause I was sore in a lot of places I have never worked out....Now I have an itch for a pole dancing class! LOL

WHY DO DAYS NEVER GO AS PLANNED?

2009-02-05T14:17:00.000-08:00

So I was all pumped this morning because I was going to do my list of things to do that I have everyday...but today was different I could feel it. So here is what was planned. I got up at 8, cause that's when my kids did. That was the first sign that my day was headed toward disaster....We got breakfast down, then as usual it takes me like an hour and a half to get myself ready and the kids. FOR WHAT?!?! To impress myself or my kids, cause they really don't care! Washed the dishes and wrote my Thursdays TO DO LIST and here it is

1. Download all of Trevor's and Becky's pictures for the reception
2. Crop and edit the pictures
3. Make their slideshow (yes I do it all ladies)
4. Go through the stack of random papers and organize (this is on my list every day)
5. Oil change
6. Dinner - still don't know what I'm making
7. Run 4.5 miles/ push ups and squats ---- hopefully I will do that tonight
8. Park with kids
9. Read books with kids
10. Shower
11. Clean my room after I destroyed it trying to figure out what I was going to wear today...that's a daily thing as well

And here is how my day has gone so far
-Currently don't know where trevors pictures are cause I unloaded my car yesterday and threw it all in my room
-Went to the park and took 150 pictures
-Made lunch...a healthy one too (KUDDOS TO ME!)
-Read some books
-BLOGGED
-BLOG STALKED
-CHANGED MY BLOG
-UPDATED MY BLOG
-UPDATED MY PROFILE
-Baked some of my cookies I froze
-Ate too many
-Water color painted with Logan (fridge is full of stick figures)
-Went upstairs to get my list of to do's and read it and realized I did nothing practically
-Got on facebook for a second
-Talked to my mom about how I updated my blog
-Updating blog AGAIN about how I have done nothing on my to do list...and that is where I currently sit

HAHAHA I suck, I have a whole baby chicken sitting on my counter that I am supposed to cook for dinner, but I have never gutted one before and I'm not ready to yet. So I think I am going to get on the computer upstairs and download pictures while I clean my room all before Adam gets home in 15 minutes....PEACE OUT!!!! Enjoy the lots of pictures I uploaded below since I wasted my whole day doing that :) LOVES

Remember the times...

2009-01-31T19:28:00.000-08:00

Yes I know it's a bad picture, but haha I don't care. That's the shortest I have ever and WILL ever cut my hair! When I was in Junior high there was no style like there is now for the junior high girls. I look at my pictures compared to my sisters around this time and she and he friends look like super models and here I am looking like a boy and a really bad part :)

I LOVE this picture of Kirt, I guess he is TOO COOL to take family pictures! Lol, holy 90's!!

Shake Ye BumBum

2009-01-29T09:59:00.000-08:00

So I am sitting here studying right now and Janae just wants to play so she is crawling all over me and playing Peek-a-Boo, having me pretend her shoe is a drink and having me take a sip and pretending to be asleep so I can wake her up and all sorts of stuff (so I am not really getting my studying done) So I told her to go get her babies and put them to sleep and so she gets up and says to me "Shake Ye Bum Bum" and shakes it, then she said it was my turn so I did it, then she did it again, then looks at our Christus statue and says, "Jesus your turn! Shake ye bum bum!" LOL

OOPS!!

2009-01-27T13:51:00.000-08:00

So I get a kick out of scaring people or tricking them, anything to get me laughing. You might think its mean but I think its funny, ask my mom I do it to her ALL the time and to Adam too. So Adam will do it back to me too and normally my reaction is to hit him in the shoulder, luckily that's not the reaction I get when I do it to him :)

So anyways last night Adam went downstairs and I was walking to the bathroom to brush my teeth when he opened the bedroom door and I had just started to pass it so I turned around and screamed AHHH! Well I didn't even plan on trying to scare him so it surprised him and surprised me that he had a FULL bowl of cereal to the brim. Well he jumped so high half of his bowl ended up on him and the floor. I felt sorry immediately and said sorry sorry, I will clean it up. Then he started bustin up laughing! So then I started laughing to the point of tears (which doesn't happen). Seriously I saw it in slow-mo...I scared him, his cereal sloshed up and over and out of his bowl. It was GREAT!! I am so glad he didn't get mad and is such a good sport with all my pranks

What A Weekend!!!

2009-01-26T20:29:00.000-08:00

So I came back...even though I didn't really want to :) I missed my kids a ton but it was sooo much fun being with Adam. If you can believe it the first morning there we slept until 11/11:30ish. I would wake up and it would still be dark in the room (THANK GOODNESS FOR BLACK OUT CURTAINS, I NEED SOME!) then was like eh it's still dark good night. I didn't sleep good at all though because at my house I have my ceiling fan on high and then a floor fan on high and wrapped up in my warm blankets. But at the resort I had an itchy, thin, very uncomfortable blanket and I set the temperature to 65 and there was no ceiling fan, but Adam held me and kept me warm. Also, last time we stayed here with the kids they got to take advantage of the 2 person jacuzzi tub in the room, but this time it was all about Adam and I!!!

Kelly, I will post some more pictures from the past, but seriously I don't show them to anyone, I normally delete them or throw them away cause I was seriously UGLY!
But only because I love you!

5 YEARS!!

2009-01-23T06:53:00.000-08:00

Today is our 5 year anniversary...can you believe it?!?! Its been 60 months, 260 weeks, 1,824 days, 43,776 hours, 2,626,560 minutes and 157,593,600 seconds that we have been married.

So this is what I have planned, when he gets off there is going to be his clothes sitting on the car for him to get ready into a nice outfit and also a blindfold where he will have to blindfold himself so he can't see me. Then I am taking him to Fogo E Brasa (thank you to Emilie for introducing us to that place, its all I can think about!!) Then blindfolded again and off to the improv for some comedy then blindfolded again and to a resort for the weekend but I am going to have the room set up with candles and rose pedals, a jacuzzi bubble bath, sparkling cider and all the trimmings. Then Saturday we are going to a something called the Mystery Mansion, where you eat dinner and figure out a mystery. So its going to be lots of fun, I am so excited!! Its always nice to spend quality time together and after 5 years I think we deserve it

I love you baby!!! Thanks for everything that we have been through its been fun I can't wait til for our next 5 years and making all of those memories!

5 months of being married and a baby on the way

11 months of marriage, a baby and a FAT SELF!! (I know I don't even look human, but I just had a baby and gain 65lbs) But luckily Adam said with me cause now I am the HOTTEST I have ever been lol

Married 1 yr 6 months and our first vacation

Halloween 2005, married 1yr 9months

"I LOVE YOU TO..."

2009-01-10T20:11:00.000-08:00

So last night Logan and Janae helped me put the Christmas tree away. After we were done I told Logan I loved him SOOOO much and he said I love you this much (and stretched his arms out) then we went back and forth saying we loved each other to grandma's, moon and then I said I loved him to the universe and then he said, "I love you to McDonalds" I was totally laughing, it was so funny. Little kids say the cutest things.

Another thing Logan said....
My little brother, Colton, came home to visit cause he lives with his buddy and Logan hasn't seen him in a while and so excited to see him so they were just playing and then Colton was saying how he was tired and was going to leave then Logan chimes in and here is how the conversation went

Logan: You live here
Colton: No I don't anymore
Logan: Yeah you do remember
Colton: Nope I don't buddy
Logan: Yeah you have a room, come here I'll show you
He grabs Colton's hand to go show him

The next night Colton came back over and Logan had taken a nap in Colton's room that day and when he see Colton he says the following

Logan: Colton I told you you have a room, I slept in it today. See yo do have a room

Kids definitely just say it how it is, he was so sincere it could break your heart. He loves and misses his uncle Zoltan

2009 Resolutions Already Broken

2009-01-06T09:17:00.000-08:00

So my main new years resolution was to make it to church every Sunday. I thought it was going to be a piece of cake because our time went from 1:30 (which is nap time) to 8am and I was all pumped about it. Well Saturday night comes around and we were at my uncles house in Peoria until 11:15 and didn't get home until 12:30 then was so tired we forgot to set our alarm clock and didn't get up until the kids woke us up at 9:30. So much for that one I can' even get through the first Sunday!!

I have been a total slacker when it comes to blogging I have a ton of pictures too from Christmas, parties, New Years so hopefully I get them up soon

2008 Going Out With a Bang

2009-01-01T08:33:00.000-08:00

So at the last minute we got a dj gig from a couple and they were kind of nervous cause they have been to parties where the dj was horrible so they wanted to meet us to get a feel of us...and of course they loved us and we were hired. When we pulled up to their house I was like "WOW these are some wealthy people" Then when we met the wife Alissa and the husband Freddie I was like how in the world do these people have so much money cause come to find out they are only 30. My first thought is he must be a professional baseball player or maybe golfer cause he had just gone golfing earlier that day. Well come the night of New Years Eve a couple showed up and I immediately recognized them cause I had gone to junior high with them (what are the odds) so we started talking and I was like how in the world do you know them and she said she just started nannying for them then I asked what does he do and she looked me like what you don't know and told me he plays for the Pittsburg Pirates, he's the second baseman. WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT?! He and his wife were SOOOO nice and sooo much fun, it was our best New Years ever and a great crowd to celebrate with. They dance all night long til 3 in the morning!
This is how I saw him just a regular guy
but this is what everyone else knows him by

I just thought it was pretty cool that we dj'd for him :) I have pics and will download them later

The Most Amazing, Jubilent, Beautiful, Wonder Woman In The World

2008-12-29T00:03:00.000-08:00

This is from my sister in law, Kelly Curiel....

Our family has suffered an immense loss. My beautiful mom has passed away on December 28th, 4:05 a.m.

My mom, Pamela, collapsed from cardiac arrest Christmas night. Raul and I performed CPR on her until the paramedics came and they attemped to revive her as well. After 20 minutes without a heartbeat they rushed her to the hospital where they finally brought back her pulse however she was dependent on a breathing machine.

It took 24 hours to find that she had also suffered a stroke and there was very little brain activity. After 3 days, in which Aubrey, I, Raul and my dad never left the hospital, my mom's brain activity completed ceased. We waited for my moms brother to fly in from Florida to say his goodbyes and released her from the machines.

My mom was my best friend. I spoke with her 4 times a day, everyday. Everyone who knew her loved her so much. She had dozens and dozens of friends from church come by to see her. They all loved her dearly. She was the most generous, gracious, and loving soul in existence. I know her family who has gone before her is thrilled to be with her now.

She will live on forever in our hearts and stories. The pain we feel from this loss is unable to be expressed. The magnitude of this traumatic event at such a festive holiday will never be forgotten. Our family has lost a piece of our hearts that can never be repaired until we meet with her again.

We love you mom. So so much. We cherish you.

Please contact Raul for the funeral arrangments on Wednesday morning, Dec 31st at 8:00a.m. in Mesa.

We are also asking for memorial contributions to be deposited into a specific bank account. We will have additional information soon so please ask Raul. We greatly appreciate your thoughtfulness at this time.

Your prayers will give us strength.

(We loved Pam so much, she took GREAT care of us everytime we went to her house. My kids automatically adopted her as their grandma and she her grandbabies. She was so generous and took care of Adams every need always making sure he had Coke to drink and food to eat, and he gladly accepted. :) Her smile made me laugh and her smile would just melt you. The love she had for everyone always showed. I couldn't but help loving her to pieces!! She was an amazing woman and will be missed dearly. WE LOVE YOU PAM!)

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

2008-12-25T16:15:00.000-08:00

I know I haven't sent our Christmas cards yet, there is a good reason why but you will get a New Years card from us. I hoPE you guys have a GREAT CHRISTMAS...LOVE ADAM, SHEENA, LOGAN AND JANAE

She Said "YES!!"

2008-12-25T16:02:00.001-08:00

My sisters boyfriend proposed today....it was sooo cute!

Attack of the WHITE TRASH MOM

2008-12-22T21:28:00.001-08:00

So if only you could have seen me today. Here is how my day started I got up at 5am with Adam to take him to work so I could drive to my mom's house and get my kids who stayed the night. So I grabbed my clothes and just went in the car in my pajamas. Well I realized once I started to get ready that I grabbed Logan's pants instead of mine. Luckily I lost weight and now fit into my sisters pants but also realized I forgot my bra. And we moms know how IMPORTANT it is to always have a bra and I had to run errands. So needless to say the kids and I went to Linens n Things and Mervyns and I was all natural (and you could SOOO tell there was supportage).

Then to top it off I didn't do Janaes hair but with a bobby pin and didn't even brush it and it was ratty oh yeah and I had greasy unbrushed hair too. When we were in Linens n Things Janae smelled really poopy like the whole store could probably smell it but I left the diapers in the car and was trying to hurry so I changed her in the car when we finished but she wasn't even poopy so who knows maybe it had to do with me being white trash. Then we went into Mervyns and I kept smelling it but just thought it was me and whatever but once I got home I checked again and she was poopy. Maybe she had gas....but wow I was pretty surprised with myself that I would actually do that. Poor Logan had to be in pubic with us :)

WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE THINGS THAT YOU DISCOVERED IN 2008

2008-12-09T18:46:00.000-08:00

Janae wanted to wear my glasses, then Logan did and then I decided to make it a family affair, Adam wasn't overly thrilled :)

My friend and I saw a group of guys wearing white sunglasses and we decided there should be a rule that guys shouldn't wear white sunglasses cause its kind of gay, but they thought they were sooo cool

Ooo Pitty

2008-12-09T18:40:00.001-08:00

So while I was trying to organize underneath my sink Janae thought it was a great time to put all of her headbands on my head and get into everything I was trying to clean...gotta love little helpers! Then it was Janae's turn

CHRISTMAS CARDS

2008-12-06T19:03:00.000-08:00

So for the first time EVER I made Christmas cards and would love everyone to put their address in my comments because its way less work then calling a million people to get everyones address. Thanks!! The sooner I get your address the sooner you get your card :) OR YOU CAN EMAIL IT TO ME AT acuriel@platinumproductionsaz.com

It's beginning to look a lot like CHRISTMAS!!

2008-12-04T19:05:00.000-08:00

So yeah we got our Christmas tree up, thanks SOOO much to Adam for helping me out, I really don't think I could have done it better myself. So this tree has taken me 4 years to get it the way I wanted it because every year I would ask if I could buy all the decorations for the tree and he would say no just get one thing and so every year I would and then get it on sale so I could get two things and now I am so happy with it!!!! And all of our lights are up outside so yeah!

Where Did November Go?!?!

2008-12-02T20:24:00.000-08:00

So yeah I just realized yesterday was December 1st am I the only one kind of stressed out that Christmas is around the corner. I hadn't even thought about making X-Mas cards yet, I better get on top of that pronto! And we have to put up our tree, decorate the house, make my parents X-Mas gift, make lots of junk food, study for school, all within like 3 weeks. Can we please pause life but keep going, like how Zack from Saved by the Bell did...I WANT THAT!! I have a whole list of stuff I should be doing, atleast my intentions are good but expect our house to get decorated like the week before Christmas and my parents gift to be half way done, and probably no junk food made and not as much studying done as I would like and all of it done most likely 3 weeks after Christmas....that sounds about right

FREAKIN AMAZING!!

2008-12-01T16:59:00.000-08:00

So we are finally home from Utah and even though it was such a great vacation I am glad to be able to sleep with just a sheet and not two pairs of socks and pants and two shirts on a sweater, plus 3 blankets. We did lots of fun things, thanks to our handy dandy GPS system adam got for an early christmas present....anyways I will post more about our trip later I am too excited about what I was going to post about I just got a bit sidetracked.

....SO....

I was inspired while up there to cook because every morning my aunt made us breakfast and had lunch stuff prepared and made dinner. And I don't think I have ever been THAT good of a wife. Well I pulled out my recipe book this morning before I went to the grocery store because for like the past, FOREVER, I have just been winging dinner and not putting like any major planning into anything. Well I decided on this for the week 1. Loaded Sandwhich - bacon, avacado, lettuce, tomato, cheese, mustard and mayo on toasted french bread (I got my friend Shannon hooked on them) 2. Crockpot Enchiladas - red sauce with hamburger meat 3. Spaghetti and meatballs with homemade breadsticks (never have tried it before so we will see how it turns out) 3. Cafe Rio burritos with their special ranch sauce (I am addicted to that place!) 4. Tiny Spicy Chicken - found in cookbook, it sounds good and is super easy 5. Chicken Divan - I have had it before and I think it was good also super easy recipe

Then I made a list of desserts because I never make cookies or anything for Christmas so this year I want to be like the rest of my friends and be able to make them fat like they make me by bringing over tons of junk food :)
1. No Bake Cookies 2. Holly Cookies (from my amazing baker of a friend, Shannon) 3. Butterscotch Red Hot Cookies (also from Shannon) 4. Dump Cake also known as Pineapple Upside Down Cake (adam loves it) 5. Banana Cream Pie 6. Pumpkin Waffles

So today my kitchen and I finally became aquainted and we whipped up a banana cream pie and the cafe rio burritos with their special ranch sauce. I was feeling pretty good almost like Betty Crocker, I think she had some stiff competition. Adam said to Logan, well we will see how it tastes. Then all of the sudden I heard "WOW THIS IS FREAKIN AMAZING!!! THIS IS SOOO GOOD BABE, I LOVE IT!!" He kept going on and on, I think I blushed. He has never said that to me before, then he was like where have you been hiding this woman all my life? So YEAH TO ME!!! I guess maybe I set myself up for failure doing the best thing first hopefully the rest of the week turns out as good. And he better enjoy it while he can cause we know this can't possibly last long.

Happy Thanksgiving from us!!

2008-11-27T21:32:00.000-08:00

We are in Utah enjoying the great weather, snow and family. Cindy Price took these pictures of us just like two weeks ago and she did such a WONDERFUL job!! I am so glad we have some nice family pictures because the last time we got family pictures taken Janae was a month old...yeah I would say its about time.

I have a TON of pictures from our trip as soon as we come back, we get back Sunday evening.

2008 Birthday Pics

2008-11-19T12:14:00.000-08:00

So for those who don't know Kiddie Kandids give children a free 8x10 on their birthday (you have like a month grace period after their birthday to get it too) but its so awesome you can just walk in say its their birthday they enter you into the computer, take the picture you pick out which one you want they print it off and you walk out with your FREE 8x10!!!! They do it every year up until they are ten. And you can start it when they are 5 or 7 or 3 or whenever. And then if you want you can order them online.

I worry a lot about takig pictures, like how should their hair be done, what should they wear, a solid or print, should they match, what colors look best, what background, what shoes. It can get kind of stressful, and I wasn't going to do it because once again I wasn't sure about the outfits cause they were totally different from each other but I just said what they heck, and what do you know they turned out just fine!

I PICK THIS FIRST ONE OF LOGANITO FOR MY 8X10

Slow Down

2008-11-14T09:44:00.000-08:00

Don't you just wish your life could slow down for a day, perferably a week? Ah I feel like I am ALWAYS on the go and never at home and my house is getting neglected, I don't have time to vacuum or mop or dust. There is always somewhere I need to be and I am getting burnt out.

Like today, I got up at 730 got ready, got the kids ready fed them breakfast and went to workout, got back at 9, fed myself, gave kids a snack, cleaned my room (because there is always clothes to put away and I just can't keep up with them) showered, got clothes ready for family pictures today. Giving kids a bath, washing clothes for Adam....still need to do, get kids reready, do Janae's hair, unload the durango, put all of our clothes in the durango, feed them lunch, go to friends house so she can do my hair for pictures, meet adam to get my makeup, take family pictures, come home and vacuum, mop, dust, finish putting clothes away, finish Eclipse so I can finally ready Breaking Dawn. So it doesn't sound like that much but I never get a break and of course I love staying at home but I wish I was on like house arrest so I had to stay here :)

Ok...

2008-11-13T21:01:00.000-08:00

So maybe I am loosing my mind this entire time I thought that Thanksgiving was a week from today and I was all prepared for packing our stuff and getting warm clothes and trying to be prepared. Then I was at my mom's and was like umm on your blog it says your leaving Monday, you know Thanksgiving isn't until the week after right? And nope, I didn't know. So I am so excited to find that out now I get to go to the Twilight showing! YEAH FOR TWILIGHT!!

A White Thanksgiving

2008-11-10T14:20:00.000-08:00

We are heading up to Utah a week from today, that would be the 17th and I am thinking we are possibly going to freeze our behinds off in the snow and yeah we aren't so much prepared living in Arizona our whole lives. So we are on the hunt to borrow some snow gear, Adam and I are going to attempt snowboarding with my counsins. And we are going to take the kids in the snow, it will be their first time. So if there is anyone that could PLEASE PLEASE help us and lend us their stuff that would be MUCHO APPRECIATED!! Adam is 5'11" pants 34/32, me 5'4" size 7 and Logan is a size 4/5T and Janae a 2T.

HAPPY (LATE) BIRTHDAY SPIDER MAN!!

2008-11-10T11:03:00.001-08:00

So Logan turned 4 on Wednesday, the 5th. I had planned to take him to Bounce You but that fell through, but throughout the week we celebrated his birthday. On Sunday we got together with my family for both of the kids birthdays, Adam's and my grandpas...all within 13 days of each other! On his birthday we asked what he wanted to eat and he said pizza, and he got to pick out his favorite thing which is hot wings (his favorite pizza is hot wing pizza too, it must be the mexican in him). Then Friday night he went to his Abuelo's and Abuela's house for more presents and then Saturday he got to have a slumber party with two of his friends. Wow it has been one fun week!

I love my Logan boy, he is growing up into such a little man now. I am so grateful that I get to spend everyday with him and get to be his mommy.

Somethings Logan loves
1. Spiderman, he says when he grows up he will be a BIG Spiderman!
2. Puzzles (100 piece ones) he does them everyday and would do them all day long if I would let him.
3. Riding his bike to the park and pulling Janae in the wagon to the park
4. Playing baseball...he is much better now that I realized he is really right handed not left handed
5. Reading, every night he wants me to read him a book, and then just one more
6. Hot cheetos
7. Playdo, will also do that all day long
8. Playing with his friends and his cousins and has a hard time leaving them
9. Winning, whether its running up the stairs or first one to the door, he HAS to win
10. CHEESEBURGERS!!!

LOVE LOVE LOVE EXTENSIONS!!

2008-11-04T23:21:00.000-08:00

So I totally know how you felt Mia when you put those extensions in. I got some for my halloween costume and my friend dyed them to match my hair color and they are clip-ins so I can put them in whenever I want. I absolutely LOVED them!!!! When Adam saw them he said, "There is my Sheena...don't ever cut your hair again"

PLEASE HELP

2008-11-04T22:50:00.001-08:00

I don't know how to get rid of the yellow background color, it's driving me mad. Please help it doesn't match! THANKS :)

OUR BABY GIRL IS 2!!

2008-11-03T18:33:00.000-08:00

HAPPY BIRTHDAY NANAE!! Today was so much fun celebrating our little princesses birthday. First we went to Logan's gymnastics class and she got to play in their cool play area, but was pretty clingy cause she is starting to cut her fang teeth but it was still fun. Logan did soooo good at his class...pictures to come. Then we went to the store and they got donuts, lucky! Now to the best part we all went to McDonalds then my friend watched

ogan so Janae and I could get OUR NAILS DONE!!

So it was way past her nap time, 2:30 but she did great. I picked out pink and then they said they would take care of her so I just got my camera and took picture after picture after picture. She didn't really know what was going on at first and wouldn't smile for pictures until she saw the polish on and her flowers they put on. She tried out the massage chair too and couldn't get it to work so she decided it was a phone. Like 2 minutes before they were done she just closed her eyes and fell asleep. Ahhh so cute!! She has a fun fill birthday :)
