Kuaback's BlahBlahBlah

This is happening next weekend. I am so stoked. My first 5k run and I know it's gonna be lots of fun. Wohooohoo. If you're in Hawaii next week, sign up and come run with us.

So this is a story I never told before. I never talked about it after and I never acknowledged that it did HAPPEN. YOU will probably call me a selfish whiner but the truth of the matter is, this thing breaks you no matter how hard you try NOT to let it get to you! -- After the Christmas festivities of 2008, we found out we were pregnant. I tried so hard to keep it a secret until we were in the clear after 3 months. The hubby was so excited that he announced it to his family before we passed the SAFE time-frame.  WE were so EXCITED and we couldn't wait to find out what we were having.  I was being so careful and the hubby was so supportive doing all the chores and whatnot, just so I don't lift a finger and break a fingernail. However, after our 20 week checkup, I started spotting - pretty badly!! My heart was beating the whole time I was in the waiting room. The 2 minutes I waited for the ultrasound felt like a whole lifetime - There was NO heartbeat....

WOW! I haven't posted on this here blog for quite some time now and I see that I didn't even finish the 30blog challenge. My apologies :) But, in my defense, I have been really reaaaaaaaaally busy with school, work, family and life in general. Gosh, time flies by so fast I can't even keep up with my to do list. uugggghhhh Anyhow, check out what I've been busy with lately on this link . I hope everyone is having a great beginning of week so far :)

[what are your 5 greatest accomplishments] 1. surviving the first year of marriage: It's true when they tell you the first year is the most challenging phase of marriage. That's when you find out your other half's true colors and when you realize you don't really want to share your space and your bank account with someone else. ha! 2. I can cook dinner, do laundry, and shower two active boys - and be done with all 3 chores at the same time..I know..I'm wonderwoman..bhhahaha 3. I can change a full blown nastiest, dirtiest diaper with just one wipe and come out with a nice clean bum (I deserve an award for that one) 4. giving life to my 2 babies - I'm still amazed at how us women carry these precious beings inside our bodies for 9whole months. 5. being HAPPY with where I am in life - Life is fabulous!

[if you were an animal, what would you be and why?] If I were an animal, I would be a DOLPHIN.  WHY? Because they're gorgeous, smart, friendly and people love them..hehehehe

[what are your 5 strengths and describe] 1. I'm very organized : I have a system for everything and it drives my husband bananas and sometimes drives my BOSS and my workmates nuts. Soriaboudid 2. Forgiveness: I'm so quick to forgive. I always give people a second chance. hhhmmm. .not sure if this is a strength or weakness..oh wth 3. I'm a straight forward no bullshit kinda girl : If I see something I don't like or something that can done better - I will say what I think, offer my opinion and provide constructive criticism. I'd rather come out and say it, than keep it in because it will keep bothering me until i do something about it 4. Open mind: I'm good at thinking things through and examining the big picture from all sides. 5. Sense of Humor : I like to laugh and tease. keeps me sane most times. laughter is the best medicine afterall

One more week before school starts. I enrolled Tai at Bright Beginnings and he's so excited to start already! Anyway, I've been trying to get him on a sleeping schedule at night but still failing bad. At 10pm he's still up watching cartoons or coloring in his coloring books. Lately, he's been working on perfecting his circles :) So instead of yelling at him to get to bed tonite, I sat him down and tried to talk to him about why he needs to go to bed early. Our conversation went something like this, Me: son, you start school soon so you need to start going to bed early, you hear me? T: I don't want to. I not tired Me: I know, but if you want to be a strong boy and get to school on time, you need to go sleep early so u won't be tired when you go school. OK? T: ok ok ok gosh Me: excuse me? T: I said ok geez Me: Tai now you better watch....cut off T: ok ok ok mom I gotta get it (I think he meant "I get it" ) This kid drives me banana...
