Pumpkin Festival

My little princess is now 8 months!

Sorry haven't been posting lately but been very busy. Will def. try to post more but maybe some blogging and and just pics. lol.

Can't believe it's almost the end of the year already. I went to Connor's Pumpkin Festival at school today and there were some cute costumes there. I'll post pics when I download them. I hate that my boys are so into Star Wars. He was Captain Rex last year and now he's Boba Fett. Get a different type of costume...was trying bribe him to wear my oldest son's costumes but he refuses. I guess he has his own mind and doesn't want to be like him even though he tries in every other way but just wants his own costumes. lol... I guess that's good even though I'm flat broke but gotta spoil my kids regardless.

Over the weekend, we went to two different pumpkin patches. One was just a little festival but we got there a little late so all the good pumpkins were gone; however, the kids still had a blast because some of the events were still going on. The next day, we just went to get pumpkins for the kids. Enjoy the pics!

Christien

So proud of my oldest son! He made it into the FOCUS program...It's the gifted program at his elementary school. He took the test earlier this week to see if he could get in and the result was....he got in. Just received the notification so I'm happy. I feel that he's bored so he def. needs a challenge so the extra work will do him good. That reminds me of what one of my friends told me about her child. He's currently in 2 AP classes and wants to drop them because it's too much work and I didn't realize it but you have to go in front of the board and everything to see if they will approve you to drop it. Anyways, he wasn't allow to drop it because there wasn't a valid reason. He's just too lazy but the teachers said he was capable of handling the class so he was upset but like his momma said...he can do it! Now he has no choice. lol...kids...i swear. If they could get out of it, they would. Anyways, I never did tell my neighbor because like you all said...they are just kids but I will keep an eye on them. lol...

Should I tell or should I not?

Ok....This happened last week to my son and I have been debating whether to tell her mom or not. My son was playing around with one of his friends in the neighborhood that is a girl...not sure who was all there but he told me that she kissed him and then she made a remarked that said, "I always wanted to do that?" They are both 7 years old. I was shocked but didn't want to tell her mom because I know her mom will be upset with her. What do you guys think? Should I tell her? I didn't even know what to tell my son...it's way too early for him to even think about girls. All he should worry about is his video games. lol... But I def. don't want him to be a fast one either.

btw - I did get my list back. YAY...

Blogger

I somehow lost all of the blogs I followed...sucks. Is anyone experiencing the same problems as me? I am not going to add anyone today for I am hoping that it is just a glitch in the system or what so ever. Off to work now... Happy Hump Day!

My oldest is now in 2nd grade...can't believe that but happy that he's in school now so I can finally get some peace and quiet. All summer, the nagging, the fighting of the two boys and now school has started. Praise the Lord! lol.... Yesterday, he brought home his conduct folder w/an E...first day has started well. :)

11th yr anniversary tomorrow

Quick post for I am leaving work soon...but tomorrow will be 11 years for my hubby and I. Can't believe how long it's been already for us and we are still together. lol...YES, it's been tough but we managed. Hopefully more...hehehe. I learned in life - You can only speak for yourself and control your actions so now, I am smarter in life. I am not as naive as I used to be. Sometimes though, I wish I was though. Anyhow, no plans since school starts for my oldest son. His first day is Monday and we were going to go out of town but can't but maybe we will just do dinner or so.

Have a great weekend!

I know it's been several weeks since I posted a new blog but I've been so busy with work and the kids. So much has happened as well but of course I can't blog about everything...it's confidential. JK...But Connor, my son has his birthday on July 11th so threw him a pool party when he got back from MN and of course, he was shy at first but then had a blast. His favorite part was opening the presents. Of course, his older brother loved it just as much because he knows that it's partial his too. :)

Connor...can't wait to open his presents


Christien and Connor w/presents (The WII fit is really for me) lol...

I also went to a party that my cousin's threw for their parents. They are somewhat related but anyhow, it was a party up in Spartanburg, South Carolina. Good food....but the best part was meeting my long lost friend, Susana. (picture below) Her and I go way back. She was actually a neighbor and can't believe how good she looks. I seriously need to lose weight...weight does alot to a person as well as hair. Did I mentioned I saw some guys I used to know and yes, They are bald and omg...looks totally different. Praying that my boys will have hair because being bald does run in my mom's family as well as my dad's but worst for my mom's. My 24 yr old nephew was bald already at age 21...cute but no hair... :( His dad has more hair than him...hehehe....

Susana and me

Two weeks ago, I took my oldest son, Christien to karate and when I got back, I found my little princess bald....apparently, the hubby shaved her hair and now she's bald. I swear it's a myth...but the hubby said he shaved her hair so that her hair can grow thicker. WTH!!! I was so upset because it was getting longer and I so wanted to put her hair in pig tails but oh well...gotta wait 'til she's one now. :( Oh well...but I know it's not going to get any thicker. It's totally an Asian Myth.
