It is time for bed

I want to blog a long rant about nothing extraordinary, but if I don't go to bed now I will be a complete grump tomorrow. And being a grump while taking care of this......

this picture is from June. she has MUCH MORE chub and rolls now, but her face in this pic always makes me smile!

...just doesn't make for a good day for her. She needs a happy well rested aunty who can give her full attention and loves. Seriously don't you just wanna squeeze and pinch all over her?! So off to bed I go! Goodnighty night friends!

date night a month ago

This blog makes it embarrassingly apparent that I am a procrastinator. Me and Mr. BF had a date night (it's a pretty regular thing) 3 plus weeks ago and I remember taking pictures and thinking to myself that I was going to blog about every detail of our date. So here I am finally getting around to blogging about it and I can only hope I even still remember all the details.

Since moving away from Hawaii (insert triple sad frowny face with a tear HERE) I have been missing all my favorite food places in a real bad way! One of those places being Haleiwa Eats. I LOVE thai green curry. So we decided to try this thai restaurant in riverton (i think). It looked kind of fancy, the menu was huge, and we definitely got a lot of bang for our buck because the portions were generous. BUT ( <---notice it's a big but) taste-wise, it wasn't quite satisfying. Despite that dinner was great. We chatted (it's been too long so I can't remember what we talked about) but I know we had a good time. This guy can make me laugh all the time! That's one of the things I love about him. Since day one he's been able to make me smile even when I don't want to. He's downright goofy sometimes and humor is definitely on my list of "gotta haves" in a guy. Anyways we ate till we were full then we left the restaurant headed for the movies to see if there was anything we wanted to watch.

Pad thai, lettuce wraps, green curry w/shrimp, rice, salad w/yummy dressing

Mango sticky rice....I've had better. But I guess this meal was good enough to hold me over till I can actually find a good thai place.

From my fortune cookie. I sure hope so!

His. I had been calling him a werewolf the whole night so this was weird. Does anyone else notice how shiny and clean his nails are? haha

We got to the movies and decided to watch Crazy Stupid Love (see how bad I am at blogging and how bad my memory sucks? I just had to text AJ to remind me what movie we watched...sheesh alzheimers already). We bought our tickets and had about ten minutes until the movie started.

The shopping center we were in, in Draper, had a Sweet Tooth Fairy store just a few stores away. So I BEGGED the BF to take me to get JUST ONE cupcake to SHARE with me. One, because I was already stuffed from dinner and been trying to watch what I eat, but really who can resist a moist yummy sugary tasty cupcake? And share, because I didn't want to feel like a total fatty eating a ball of fat by myself....although by all means, I do definitely know how to do that. LOL no shame. So even though he didn't want a cupcake he took me over there because in his words, "It's your night baby." Seriously what girl wouldn't be happy with a guy who does anything he can to make her happy? This is how he makes me feel. :) Anyways we walked over there and their store is so cute and dainty definitely a girly feel. We decided on the toasted coconut cupcake. It was delish. If you've never had a treat from the sweet tooth fairy....you definitely need to have yourself a little visit. I promise you will not be disappointed!...and if you are...more cupcakes for me! ha.

The cupcake display. Normally it's much fuller, but we came in ten minutes to closing. They have so many different flavors!

The wall says, "You are what you EAT, so eat something CUTE."

He ALWAYS opens door for me :)

We got back to our movie just in time the previews ended and our movie started. It was a good movie. We thought it was funny and we both liked it. Although at one point it started to feel like a long movie. And I'm not sure if that's because the movie was actually long or if it was because we were watching a late movie. Either way we enjoyed it.

At the movies. And yes he's wearing colored contacts. He ran out and had to borrow from his cousin who only had colored ones. If not for her contacts it was either wear glasses or be blind LOL.

After the movie while driving home Keisha Cole - Love came on the radio. And in the delirious hour (after midnight) we both took turns belting out the tune and then came together for the chorus. We were laughing so hard because neither of us are professional singers, if you know what I mean. It was just fun, being goofy together and not being afraid or embarrassed in front of each other.

Scary much? lol see the werewolf? But this is the guy who makes me :)

It wasn't a super amazing creative date or anything, but it was one of those dates where you just feel so relaxed, so comfortable, so YOURSELF. Where you don't do anything out of the ordinary, but you feel your bond grew just a little closer. My official ruling on this is date night success!

why yes, of course..

I would love for there to be poop on my arm this morning.

My sister, Melissa, went back to work last month after taking her maternity leave and having her first baby, Lusi. I kind of became nanny by default and now watch my squishy little chunkalunka niece every Wed. - Sat. from the mornings until about 4 o'clock in the afternoon.

She is quite a handful. She usually throws up after eating whether she's been burped or not. She already threw up all over the wood floor this morning as I was carrying her, and as it was making its way to the floor of course it covered her leg and me on its way down. Her pooping schedule, now that isn't so predictable. So after she threw up I put her in her bumbo on the counter so I could get a drink of water. She already pooped earlier this morning so I thought she wouldn't go again for a while.......i was wrong. Girl threw on her poop face (full concentration like a blank stare and she becomes completely silent) and moments later I heard her farting. So i pick her up to change her and felt wetness on my arm. THANK YOU LUSI...just what i wanted (insert sarcasm here). Seems like she's always leaking out of her diapers lately. GROSS.

Anyways I'm glad it was just a smear and not something more like this....

This is no random picture I found on the internet. These are my mothers feet!

Lusi had a surprise for grandma.

The culprit looking ever so innocent and unaffected by the situation.

Happy Wednesday everybody, hope you don't have a CRAPPY day!

I'm alive...

..and I'm posting a blog to prove it. Here we go....

It is 3 am Utah time. I feel tired but I feel like a zombie stuck on the internet. I should go to sleep, I WANT to go to sleep but sometimes it's so hard to just close my laptop (no, I'm not an addict!....ok maybe I am). So after over a month of bloggers hiatus I decided it's finally time to blab about something and what better time than now huh?

I am such a slacker and there is so much that has happened that I can't write about it all, so I'll just write about whatever pops into my head now and that is most current. .......and of course what pops into my head first is....

FOOD! Lol first off I love cafe rio. It never gets old especially since Hawaii doesn't have any cafe rios and when I lived there I always wanted it. Now that I'm in Utah I take full advantage! Thank you cafe rio for feeding my mexican food cravings whenever they pop up. Second I really need to get a little more self control when it comes to eating. Seriously some days (and by some I mean most) I don't eat anything real. I just snack snack snack and eat junk all day long. This past week my problemo has been FRIED food. French fries (thank you fast food), keke (thank you samoan flag day), and fried oreos (thank you fat bf who was craving these) are not doing my body any kind of good! With that being said, my go-to snacks as of late have been hot cheetos, jalapeno cheetos, cheeto fries...so basically any chip of the hot cheetos category. Yes, I love anything spicy.

Ok now that I got my fat girl thoughts out I can move on. So I know that July is over and done with, BUT if I had blogged in July it would have probably had something to do with my two beautiful sisters. Why? Well because when I think about July my sisters come to mind since they both celebrate their birthdays during that hot summer month! My older sister Melissa had her birthday on the 10th, her birthday happened to fall on a Sunday. So that evening after we had all been to church and done our normal Sunday routines we celebrated with ice cream cake and presents!

Melissa with her 28 crazy candles!

My younger sister Mele had her birthday on the 22nd. It was a Friday and she had planned out with her friends a big birthday get together at the Texas Road House. Seriously, we had almost a whole section all to ourselves. After dinner we came back to our house and had ice cream cake and presents for her. Then her and her friends went out to the club for some dancing, but myself being old and boring didn't feel like going. So I'll never know how much fun they had, but I'm sure me and my pillow had just as much fun snoring (no I don't actually snore) the night away!

Mele with baby Lusi helping her blow out her 25 candles!

Well this blog turned out different than what I thought it'd be when I started. Started off kind of random and thought it was gonna stay that way, but then it kind of turned more into being about my sisters! I have the best sisters in the world, no lie. We can be crazy, loud and straight obnoxious, but I wouldn't trade them for the anything! We have so much fun together and we all have the same stupid sense of humor and crack up at the dumbest things that only we think is funny. God is such a thoughtful man and I'm sure glad he gave me the family I've got! Anyways I love my sisters to the moon and back. Life wouldn't be the same without them!

Love em!
