Are you Jealous??

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

Just for me!

Just a couple of things I needed to jot down!

The other day:

Me: Matai, were you naughty at school today?

Matai: Yes

Me: Did you cry?

Matai: Yes

Me : Why?

Matai: Because I miss you.

After football practice:

'Aisea: I didn't do good today.

Me: Sure you did!

'Aisea: No I didn't!! I think I'm going to cry!

Matai: Oh...It okay, Sea! We love you!

Reading a school book with Sea about trees.

Sea reads: Trees can be big. Trees can be small. (picture of a really small tree)

'Aisea: Mom, In English, we call that a bush!!

Went and helped out in Sea's classroom today. He keeps his hand raised all the time!!

Me: Sea, why do you always keep your hand raised?

'Aisea: Because God made me a "askalotofquestionsboy". Yeah, he made me a question boy!!

At church:

'Aisea: What do you want to be when you grow up?

Emily(She's at least 40): Well.....what do you want to be when you grow up?

'Aisea: A Doctor, or a scanner (check out at walmart), or a walmarter. (Thinks for a minute) Do you have to get a shot to be a Dad?

Emily: NO

'Aisea: Then I want to be a dad!!!

Warms my heart!!!!! I love my kids!

He makes me giggle!

My mom speaking to me: "There was an earthquake in Turkey!!"

'Aisea: "What?!! There was an earthquake in a turkey???"

He makes me giggle!!!

The Tongan Way

I found this on my ( I guess she would be my cousin - in -law??? LOL) Tala's blog. I laughed till I cried. It will probably only be funny to those who know Tongans. Hope you enjoy this as much as I did. Thanks Tala for sharing it!!!

P.S. What made this make me laugh until I almost peed in my pants was that my husband didn't find it funny and didn't see what was so wrong with it! LOLOLOLOLOLOL

I haven't forgotten!

I haven't forgotten about my blog, I'm just in Oklahoma visiting my brother and sister-in-law and their family! I will have lots to update about, I just didn't anyone to think I was slacking AGAIN!! LOL Hope everyone had a great Christmas and is having a fabulous New Year!

Io's Work Christmas Party

I know I have gotten really bad about updating my blog. I am making a new year's resolution (early) to be better at it. Thanks Kaitlin and McKenna, and Tifani S. (a little while ago) for the nudge!! :) I have lots to catch up on and I think that it became overwhelming to have to catch it up. So I will catch up when I can and post new things too!

Me and Io went to his Christmas work party last week. It was nice to have a night out with just the two of us. That hasn't happened in a really, really, really long time. It is nice to have my mom here to help us out when we need someone to watch the kids. THANKS MOM!!

The morning started out with me seeing (on T.V.) that the promo team from PCC was in town and performing at South Town Mall that evening. I called Io and, of course, he wanted to go!! :) It was good to see old friends there and watch some of the new night show. It looks like an amazing show!! We also got to see Jen, Addy, and Brynn there too! An extra bonus!!!

We left there and went to Io's work party at his school.They had a yummy dinner at the school and then at the end, they gave all of the employees a ham and $50.00. It was really nice. We know, without a doubt, that he is working where he is supposed to be working. We have been shown this time and time again. They really care and appreciate the job that their employees do.

FOR JOURNALING PURPOSES ONLY: The "big" boss at the school literally tracked me down (I mean he went to our table and asked Io where I was and he told him that I was over talking to Josephine and he came over there) to tell me what a good job Io does. He said that Io is an amazing teacher and that they love having him there and that he really makes and impact in the lives of the kids. I thought that was really nice of him to let ME know that, but I already knew everything he told me! :)

Matai turns 2!!!!

Matai's birthday was on July 30th. My baby turned two! Times flies, doesn't it? We weren't going to do anything because he didn't know the difference and funds were low. But then I just kept imagining him at the age of 10 wondering why 'Aisea had a second birthday party and he didn't get one. So I decided to do a very small one. In fact, we did it when Cody and Tanner were here, just so there could be other kids in the pictures! LOL We just got cake and ice cream and I think Cody and Tanner were glad we didn't do it before they got here. :)

P.S. Dad was helping me to get Matai to smile! LOL

We went to get the cake. I showed Matai several different ones, but when I showed him this one, he started pointing and jabbering in a really high pitch. So I assumed he wanted this one. I thought he did a really good job of picking it out!

Tanner and his soon to be brother.....aka.....Cori's tummy. LOL

'Aisea and Cody enjoying their cake and ice cream.

All and all, I think it is safe to say that he enjoyed the party, Even if he didn't realize it was all for him!!!!

Cousins come to visit!!

Cori and the kids came to Utah for a visit! My boys are so excited that they are here. They just love to play with Cody and Tanner!

Matai

'Aisea and Cody

And folks, it has begun........the fake smile! How long will it last until I get his pretty smile back????

No fake smiles for Cody~!

These two love to play together.

Look at little Dennis, I mean......Tanner! LOL He is so cute and he does look a lot like Dennis did as a baby! We are having fun having them here to play with!

The T.V.

Watching T.V. is one of Matai's favorite things to do. We have to make sure there are plenty of educational video's to watch for this reason. We have one leap frog video that he loves. From that, if you show him a letter, he can tell you the sound it makes!

The computer!~

'Aisea loves to play on the computer. More than likely you find me, Ioane and him fighting over who gets to use it! LOL Time for another computer in the house, don't ya think???

He loves to play on PBS Kids, the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse website, Nick kids, watch video's of rockets and volcanos on youtube and (his very favorite) play farm town with Mimi and Poppy! LOL

That is what he is doing in this picture. I think it is funny how he is only four and can balance the phone on his shoulder so that he can have his two hands free to play! That's my boy!
