Brrrrrr.....

It snowed real hard here the other day. I love the look, but I hate the cold and I hate driving in it!! I took these pictures early on.....as you can see, it was still coming down like crazy. We got alot more than this!

Rocket Boys!!

Anyone who knows 'Aisea knows that he loves cars, choo choo trains, and pretty much any sport that involves a ball and running......But above all else, he loves his rockets!! Right before Mimi and Poppy left it snowed but that didn't stop us from launching a rocket. Sea loved it!! Of Course!!

Oh no!!! They are shrinking!

This chair was at a gas station that we stopped at on our way home from Flagstaff. It was freezing out side or else me and Ioane would have taken a picture too, but it was too long to keep the kids out in.

Thanksgiving break and The Polar Express

Okay, first of all I know that there are a million pictures of this, but we rode on the "Polare Express" and it was soooo much fun that I had to share tons of photos!! Over Thanksgiving mom and dad flew in and helped us drive down to Dennis's for Thanksgiving. It was so cool. Amy flew in with Ashlee and Kynlee too. So all of the cousins got to be together. The only person missing was Dale :( . I went with Strep throat, 'Aisea went with a double ear infection, Amy's girls were throwing up and after we got back to my house mom threw up, so Dale might be grateful he missed it. Just Kidding!! It will be a trip that we will always talk about.
Anyway, back to the Polar Express........we got there and got our tickets and then boarded the train. They totally reinact (however you spell that) the book. They started by serving us hot chocolate and cookies, they we listen to the story as we rode to the North Pole. While we were there, we picked up Santa Clause. He came aboard the train. We sang Christmas Carols (which I think was Ioane's and Dennis's favorite part, they both sang soooo loud) until Santa came to our car. He then gave everyone their very own Christmas bell. It was so much fun. So enjoy the pictures!


















While at Dennis and Cori's we took all six kids to get pictures made for Mimi and Poppy (talk about hard!!) After we finished with that we took the kids to the playground inside the mall. They had a blast, as you can see. 'Aisea loves to play with all of his cousins. Somehow I didn't get any pictures of Tanner. I will post some as soon as Amy sends me some! LOL

Gender roles and motor skills!

Last night I was trying to clean up the hellish mess that 'Aisea had made in his room (he decided to pull every book he has off of the bookshelf). I put Matai on the floor beside me laying on his back. I was stacking books in piles so that I could organize them and Sea was taking books off of each stack to read. All of a sudden Matai rolled over onto his belly. I thought....."it must have been a fluke". So I put him back on his back and a few minutes later he rolled onto his stomach again!! So my three month old can roll over!
The other story I have is.......I was driving yesterday and as we were leaving Io's work, Io told Sea to be a good boy to which Sea responded "Yes Ma'am". Then we were driving away and a lady was walking across the parking lot and Sea says "HE's walking, Mommy". So I explained to him that "mommy is a she, daddy is a he, mommy is a ma'am, daddy is a sir". Then I asked him..."What is mommy"? He said......"Mommy is a SHEEP"! But what he meant was mommy is a she......... and beautiful and skinny!!! LOL Sea always has a way of making me laugh until my stomach hurts!

I think my happy boy wants to crawl!!!

Taking Pictures

Okay....I obviously love taking pictures of my babies. What mother doesn't. We all think that they are the cutes people in the world! So I post the ones that I love. Ioane was a "nerd" for Halloween at work. Last night 'Aisea found his "nerd" glasses and put them on. I couldn't resist taking some pictures to share. I thought they were hilarious. He is still going through this "cheese" phase as you can see in one of the pictures. I hate it. I wish he would just smile. I'll work on that with him. LOL

Cheese!

We were just playing around last night taking pictures. This is what came out of that!

Trick or Treat

Last night was Halloween. We drove down to Saratoga Springs so that we could trick or treat with Kim and Viliami. It was fun good times. 'Aisea looked so cute in his little chicken costume. He got lots of compliments on it. It was weird because lately he has looked so grown up to me, but looking at him standing on these big porches, next to these big doors made him look so small!
Matai and Ioane waiting in th e car because it was too cold for them to get out. Ioane dressed as a nerd for school and had shorts on and we didn't spend the money to dress up Matai.
So here are a few pictures of the chicken and the pumpkin!
