Oh I have a blog??

Oh heeeeeey!!! So ugh...it's almost midnight here and I cannot sleep for the life of me and since I just read Anna's blog, I felt like something was giving me that kick in the butt I needed to update this thing!
 Wow. It's almost the end of 2011. Where did time seriously go??? Well...here's a few little diddy's that have happened since my last post.
First off...LEIMANA IS A MONSTER. Hahaha...just kidding, but really she is literally a mini hulk. I was changing her clothes this morning and went to grab her from running away from me when I nearly lost my breath picking her up! Soooo, it got me thinking how does she really measure up? At her last doctor appointment in Oregon to check up on her eczema(yes she has it =( ) she weighed in at 30lbs 13oz. Now to me, I'm like, okay...this is normal she gained 2lbs since her check up in October. So I went on the WORLD WIDE WEB and googled average weight of a 14 month girl.....I got my answer there. According to...whatever, polls or statistics, my daughter is the weight of a 3 year old. YES THREE YEAR OLD. I mean, that would explain why 2T clothing are fitting her nice and snug but really?? I guess it didn't hit me that she was big till then. Anyway, I'm not worried because she doesn't look huge. Wait, scratch that, she looks huge when held up to a kid her size but to me she's still my baby. It's just getting to be a nice little workout lugging her around everywhere. Thank GOODNESS she likes to walk or I'd be having to wheel her around with me in a wheelchair. Also, my little girl is getting an attitude! If we go for a little while without talking to her...she SCREAMS! ie: Stephen and I were in the kitchen a couple days ago talking and putting food on our plates when all the sudden we here a grunt/scream coming from the floor lol We look down to see a very disapproving face glaring at us! This girl! Boy I love her tho...she keeps us entertained. Speaking of entertainment...she has a new love. She loves playing with the ukelele. She lugs it around everywhere with her...she was even so kind to put it in the dryer while I was switching loads!
Secondly!!!! Leimana and I surprised my Mom, Florence and Nia a couple weeks ago with our presence! Let's just say MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! I love doing surprises like that where no one knows but me!! Especially when it's to see family! I did that to my Grandma before we left for Chicago and she LOVED it too!! I really love going home as much as I love living out here on our own with our cute little family...nothing beats going back home. Still knowing where everything goes, how to get everywhere and bumping in to old friends. I kind of wish they lived in Florence so I could REALLY bump in to old friends and such, but I think it just brings a lot of memories for Mom so out in Corvallis is better!! Plus it's closer to the Portland Airport which is a total PLUS! OH AND NIA!! My goodness that baby is my favorite niece ever!! She's totally getting a personality now and is just a hoot! She sings along with whatever songs are playing which would be from her Mom's side =) Also, she started waving too...that lil bugaboo is just a GENIUS! It's those Baby Einstein's! Too bad Leimana never got in to those...
Third.....hmmmm.....OH! It's only snowed 1.5 times since moving here!!! I'm keeping my fingers crossed it'll stay that way till we leave in mid January! Hopefully later than that because I would LOVE IT if we went in to playoffs. Anyway...I keep trying to prepare myself for this winter...but truth is, we'd be leaving before it got REALLY bad. On that note, I'm just gonna throw this out there....WE'RE GOING TO TONGA. I'm still kinda half/half about this. I'm sooo excited to be going somewhere WARM! But I'm a little scared going a place I've never been where I won't know what the heck is being said. I hope Leimana has her Dad's tough skin, because I always broke out when we went to Samoa. BUT...I really am excited to see where Stephen grew up and the house he lived in. I wish we could go to a Mormon church while there...buuuuut our Sunday's shall be spent at the Methodist. It's cool tho, we lived next to a Tongan Methodist Church in Alaska and went a couple times. Leimana loves the music part too she LOVES music in general. So let's just pray this trip is one to remember for the HIPHOPPYHAPPY times! I'm sure it will be. With that being said...I need to get our passports turned in ASAP!


OKAY..so now I'm tired..sorry for all maybe 2 of you reading? But just forewarning...this blog is going to  be nice and RANDOM!! Loves to all...and until next time! Here's some flicks =)
