DAY 112

Today is hair cut day.  My bestie's niece came over to give the kids and me haircuts.  Before they came over, i tried to nuke my frozen burritos and overnuke it. @@  It burned. So much for my breakfast. LOL  And had to open the door and window in the hallway connected to GG's place.   No pictures for that one.  But there are picture of the kids after their haircuts.  Forgot to do that before but you get an idea from pictures the last few days.  I will post pictures of me in a day or two.

I would love to have any ideas from you.  :)  Party is not until April 30th so I have about a week.

DAY 110

It's the middle of the week and Casey is enjoying her spring break.  The older two are going to Noni's for an overnight sleepover for one last time before she moves to Las Vegas.  The kids were having fun posing for pictures.  We went to my mom's for a bit and Kai, Gabe and I came home with Kai not being happy.  She cried pretty much the whole way home saying nana nana.   Gabriel grabbed some food for dinner. 
I took a few videos of Kai but i will have to try again another day.

DAY 109

The kids and I hung out in jammies today.  The only person that got dressed was gabriel but the kids did eventually get dressed so they can go outside.  Gabriel did not go to job club--he was hit with a bad headache last night and did not improve this morning. 
I worked in the kids' room and i got rid of some stuff and moved things around so I can get into Kai's dresser.  Need to finish it tomorrow. 
No pictures today.

DAY 108

Let's see it's Monday.. not my favorite day of the week but I don't work in the workforce but i do stay home and raise my 3 active kids.  Casey has this week off for Spring break.  Gabriel has to go back to job club so I did some dishes and done some laundry (still doing some as I type this).
No pictures of the kids today but i did take a picture of my dinner. :) :D



MY dinner.  Lean Cuisine pizza, salad consists of lettuce, tomatoes, kidney beans,
crotons and ranch dressing (low calories), diet non caffine pespi and yogurt.



DAY 107

Sunday was a nice day.. we went to church and Kai did great.. didn't cry or anything and went right to one of her caregiver but wanted him to hold her. :)  She was playing when we came back. 

Then we went to my mom's to get more stuff she gave us.  We had to go to the Good will's first to drop off stuff taht was in our car for a while.  Had lunch when we got back to mom's.  Hung out for a while before heading home.


imikimi - sharing creativity  Love the outfit Kaleb wore today.  WE bought him the shorts a few weeks ago when we were looking for his Easter outfit.  The girls had those dresses since Kai was 4 or 5 months old.  They wore those dresses on Kairi's baby dedication day. :)

DAY 106

Today was a pretty warm day.. heck yesterday was hotter. Blah!  Anyhow, we hung out at home in the morning before heading to the park for Megan's birthday party (Gabe's sister). 
We played the Wii and Kaleb lost his crown on the top so we will have to make an appt for him as well for his sisters.  Here are a few taken before we went to the party.


imikimi - sharing creativity  kids at home, playing the Wii.



imikimi - sharing creativity  Ed, the magic guy, did the show for Megan and her friends. My kids enjoyed it.  Everyone got balloons in whatever shape they wanted to be in.   I've seen him perform before at my MIL's church last Halloween.


imikimi - sharing creativity  Kids having fun, watching the margic show and getting balloons,  GG enjoyed herself. :)


imikimi - sharing creativity  Kaleb was bawling " i want a breakfast bar" and we told him no because dinner will be ready shortly and he would not stop.  Finally I had to put him in time out for not calming down and not listening.  Put the timer on for 4 1/2 minutes and got back to the computer ofr a minute and then realized that there were no sound coming from Kaleb.  Time out ws over and I went to talk to him and saw that he fell asleep.   So we just let him be but 10 minutes later, big sister woke him up. @@  Oh and he did eat his dinner.

DAY 105

Kaleb and Kai had fun skating.   Casey had an Easter party at school after lunch.  I went and volunteered to help out.  The Easter egg hunt was fun until after it was over.  Two of the kids, including mine, was not ahppy with the stash.  I think those two had the least amount of easter eggs. :/  A few of the kids had a bunch of eggs but thankfully some of them did share their eggs with Casey and Hector.

DAY 104

Today was not a fun time... doing laundry, Gabe did dishes, take care of kids, Gabe took/picked up Casey to/from school.  Kids napped/rested.   Work around here is neverending.  Got the eggs done for the Easter Egg hunt for Casey's class at school (im volunteering).


imikimi - sharing creativity  Gabriel and I put 3 sweettarts (bunny, duck ad chick), 3 jelly beans and 3 speckled M&M's in each plastic egg.  23 eggs for 23 children. :)

DAY 103

Today is Wednesday and it was sort of a busy day but not really.  Gabriel is trying to do all the dishes and i am doing laundry (it's 10 pm right now) and only done 3 loads @@  so will do 2 more before bed.   Anyhow, Gabriel took the inviations and the money owed for the Spring pictures to the school.  Teacher passed them out to the class. :)  Invited the whole class which was better than jsut inviting a few.  One already rsvp'd.   Still need ot chekc my emails to see any others.   Tried ot eat dinner before going to the PTA meeting and some of us still needed ot change and get ready. LOL   Older two went to a classroom that had babysitters and Kai didn't want to stay there and went back 2nd time but a kid tried ot pick her up. :/ so back to the meeting she comes.    Here is Kai eating a chocolate chip cookie.  Only picture for the day.

Casey was not in any of the pictures because I was giving her a bath and getting her ready for bed.

DAY 96

We went to Casey's school for open house. We checked out the pictures and school work/art work by the kindergartners. The kids had a blast running around an checking out pictures. We also checked out 3 1st grade classrooms to get an idea of what Casey will be doing next year. Wish we checked out the kindergarten classrooms for Kaleb. Just hope he gets Ms. Mayo next year. As we left the school, Casey had a melt down and daddy had to carry her while I push the stroller with Kai in it. Casey kept on saying, "I don't want to go". I think she was so tired. Kind of the same kind of melt down I encountered, dealing with Kaleb two weeks ago.

Kairi had fun running around Casey's classroom. :) Gabe and I took turns holding her at the beginning but she wanted down.

Kaleb was playing hide a seek with Casey and her friends. :


Casey with Brooklynn (pink top) and Andrew.


Besties! check out the pictures on the wall behind them. Their teacher took lots of pictures and put them up.. I took 2 pictures of the ones i liked. (look below). I wished i took more and also an art Casey did.


this was taken on pajamas day by her teacher.


this is also taken by her teacher. I think it was taken the Friday before thanksgiving week. She had the week off. :) Casey with her bestie, Brooklynn and good friend, Cheyenne. These 3 girls loves to be together and will most likely be seen together on school campus.

DAY 95

Came home to have lunch and hang out at home the rest of the day. imikimi - sharing creativity At Target, Kai wanted to walk with Kaleb and hold his hand. :) Awwwww!

DAY 93

Sunday, March 3rd

Kids slept all night.. Yay and the only night last week. We went to church. It was fine. Kai did better this week. She went to her teacher with no tears. Then we went to my mom's for lunch. She is moving to Las Vegas in May.. there goes my baby sitter. :(... i understand why and haven't told the kids so we finally told them together.. Casey was fine but I know she will miss her noni. Kai got a late birthday gift from her Grandparents F (Gabriel's parents) and got her a bike. imikimi - sharing creativity

DAY 92

Saturday we went to my dad's for the day. Got there about 1 15ish and didn't leave until 10 pm. The kids had fun with Grandpa K and Abuelita. We had chili beans, hot dogs, sandwiches, chips, watermelon, potato salad and sausage. imikimi - sharing creativity Kaleb couldn't decide if he wanted to read or go to sleep. Sleep won! We were on our way to Grandpa K and Abuelita's house. imikimi - sharing creativity The kids only lasted 10/15 minutes in the pool. Casey got stuck by a bee. imikimi - sharing creativity Kai hanging out with Daddy.. she did go in the pool briefly. imikimi - sharing creativity My dad and step mom's dogs. imikimi - sharing creativity The kids had napped for a few hours.. Casey was the last one woken up. I put on jammies on them for the ride home.

DAY 91

April Fool's Day! Hahaha!

After Casey got out of school, we hung out for a little bit at home then we left about 430ish to go to Wal mart, Target, and out to eat. Firs stop was Payless, kids needed crocs for the summer and all found some. :) a little more than we wanted to spend but I think it is worth it. They will most likely wear it during the summer and early Fall months. At Wal mart we got the stuff we needed for laundry, shampoo for me, a laundry basket, and Q-tips and woman stuff LOL. Then on to IHOP (the kids voted that) and we enjoyed a family dinner together. :) it was already 8 when we left IHOP but we decided to go to Target anyways and look at a few things. Found a yellow shirt for Kaleb to go with the girls' outfits for Easter :) and some shorts but couldn't decide which size and Kaleb had just eaten so we will be back here on Monday. :) We looked at a few other stuff but just got the shirt. Didn't get home about 9 pm.

imikimi - sharing creativity The kids had fun at IHOP, eating and goofing off somewhat.. :) Kai loves to dip things in something. She wanted to dip pancakes into ketchup and she did.

imikimi - sharing creativity Those are the kids' new crocs for the summer.. they love them. :)

DAY 90

this is 3 months gone this year.. I am pretty proud of myself for keeping up with it but with a few catch ups I needed to do. :) imikimi - sharing creativity I was busy with one of the older kids and daddy was in the kitchen doing the dishes.. And Kai got a hold of a marker (Kaleb left it out in the bedroom) and marked all over herself. Yikes! thankfully it came off at bathtime. Here is a fun scrap I did earlier today. imikimi - sharing creativity Wanna guess which child is who? Casey, Kaleb or Kairi... :) yeah one is probably obvious. LOL

DAY 88

Early Tuesday morning about 6, I woke up with Kai on me and the older two on the right side of me. Not comfortable and besides I had to go to th bathroom so I moved Kai and put her next to Casey. I came back and decided not to move them so I went to Casey's bed to sleep. Oh and their father was upstairs, on GG duty. Anyhow, before I went back to sleep, I took a quick picture of the kids. I didn't take any other pictures on Tuesday. imikimi - sharing creativity
