nursery..

So last Sunday my lil Seila started nursery.. Crazy I know.

She is such an active lil girl and so stubborn,  rough, hands on and bossy I was really nervous for the other children..lol
Strange thing happened before class though.  During sacrament meeting a lil girl was all up in her face and even tryed to smack her a few times and she just stood there. Anywho took her to our very tiny mothers lounge and a lil boy (same age) walked right up to her and poked her right in the face. Again she just stood there. And yes, these  mothers are apologizing and stopping their kids and what not. But im stunned at Seila who all of a sudden is polite and nice..lol Is it wrong that I want her to just push them a lil bit? Guilty!! Don't get me wrong Im not the kind of Mom who wants her child beating on everyone, No thats not the case. I just don't want my kids being pushed around or bullied!

Ok back to nursery. As soon as we got in she played with the toys. We then got called to sit and have snacks 1st. My girl sat very patiently while snacks were passed out. She sat nicely and ate her snacks. She really wouldn't have cared or noticed if i left.. sad right..lol but I stayed and watched and saw what they did in nursery. After her snack she drank her water and then walked around the table drinking everyone else's water..lol They gathered on the floor for a quick lesson and to sing songs. My girl loved singing time and it was nice to sit  back and just watch her. They then moved to the toy room and did puzzles colored and played. She played nicely even though she did snatch up a few toys..lol She helped clean up and loved it when they brought out the bubbles.  She was so excited she did her happy dance and ran for the bubbles.. Please slow down my lil Seila, Mommy LOVES YOU!!

I know that I need to just step back sometimes and just let them be and I'm working on it..lol so the goal is to let her be in there by herself tomorrow. I know she'll be fine its me who will have to fight the urge not to check on her every 5min..lol 

Wish me luck=)..

UpDATE..

Hello blogging world so its been a while like 20+ months..lol there's this new thing called instagram thats pretty much like blogging (I feel) since they say a picture is worth a thousand words well hello..lol not only that I can post videos too..lol I know excuses..hehehe

We are still in HOT LAS VEGAS..boooo..lol

My Sunshine is now 7 going on 8 in a few more months and shes about to start 2nd grade!! Crazy, right!! I know I should be excited but I'm also sad too. My lil baby girl who's not such a baby anymore is growing way too fast and im going to have to admit its kind of scary!(

                                 My LOVING lil Layna

She is smart loving big hearted sweet sassy girly girl who loves anything pink sparkly or flowery. She loves playing board games card games any kind of game. She loves to sing and dance and pkay with her lil sissy. Sitting still doing nothing is absolutely boring to her..lol Shes lucky to have any movie she wants at her finger tips (after reading) that is, thanks to her Dad. She is so kind hearted and wants nothing but the best for anyone she comes in contact with. She loves being with her family especially her Grandparents and cousins she calls brothers and sister. She says she has the best Uncles and Aunties.
Shes my big helper. I mean BIG time. She loves to help with anything I'm doing and I have to admit I'm not always that patient because sometimes I just want it done and I know I have to work on that. She's a constant reminder to me of the pure love of Christ. She's so forgiving, patient, understanding hopeful outgoing and loving. She absolutely love and adores her Daddy they may joke around a lot but she always has his back..lol She wished and prayed for a lil sister and shes grateful every day for her miracle funny crazy lil sister. Shes an AMAZING big sister the way she cares for her and there at her every whim if she needs anything,  which I think shes spoiling her a lil toi much. To hear her sister cry makes her sad and she always says she doesn't like for her to be sad. She loves to play with her and make her llol she reads ti her sister makes pbj sandwiches and cereal for her sister. I am truly blessed to have her as my child.
I LOVE YOU SHLAYNA FA'AVA FONUA thank you for choosing me!!

Speaking of lil sister my lil honey chunky bums, Seiseira is 18 months 1 week and 2 days old today and she has been such a JOY since day one. She is so full of energy,  fearless, sweet, happy and so so funny I remember the day she was born I couldn't take my eyes off my miracle blessing I kid you not I didn't sleep for like a week. Which is so crazy because when I was in labor (not as smooth as my 1st child btw) lol but I was just soooo exhausted during labor and juat wanted to sleep..lol but then after I just couldn't and I didn't.  In her baby blessing my wonderful husband gave her, one of the things that ihas stuck with me he said " you will be a joy to everyone and make them laugh" and that she is everyday. She loves to copy her big sister, she  loves her Daddy and lights up every time he enters a room. She is such a dancer and loves to eat and I love that she loves to drink water!! Water yup thats what I said..lol She loves to watch movies and she loves her blanky and it is a must to have it with us at all times and anywhere we go..lol She ia also the cutest thumb sucker everrrr. I have always been against it due to I have a teeth fetish but she's just too cute and it keeps her calm and happy=)..

                                             My SWEET lil Seila

I absolutely love my girls and would like for time to just freeze so they can stay my perfect lil crazy funny angels. I know I can't shield and pertect them forever and I guess thats what I'm afraid of, my girls getting hurt or someone hurting them. I don't fear that they won't succeed in life, I know they're destined for great things because I can already see it even now as they're young,  I fear this crazy world that my kids will have to face. I know as I cocontinue to keep the FAITH follow in my Savior's foot steps as best I can and know that he will keep my girls safe and that does give me comfort. I'm eternally grateful to my Heavenly Father for my family. Blessed!!

SPOILED..

Aunty Ina is one of the most kind hearted women I know and is living proof that CHARITY never FAILTH. Is she a member of the church of Jesus Christ of Later Day Saints? No! Sad I know, but even NON members always do kind acts of service. Every year she pics a family in need and gives to them and their family so willingly without question or judgement and I absolutly LOVE that about her.

As for me she SPOILS me ALL year long and I'm grateful for all her love and support and help she literally SHOWERS me and my LiL family.

After Thanksgiving weekend my family came down the following weekend to throw me I guess what you can call a lil Baby Shower. 2 of my Dads lil sisters flew in Aunty Ina from Michigan and Aunty Nina from Missouri, Mom, Dad, Ariel, T, Crystal, Dion and Zakee drove down from Cali(missed Seila and her family). It was a weekend I desperatly needed with my family because I missed them sooo much and lets be honest when Moms around everything seems better.

Thur Dec 1st We met up with my Aunty Ina for dinner and hung out @ her Hotel all night till my parents drove in. We laughed and played catch up and we shopped well she did for me.

Friday : We all met up @ my Auntys hotel for brunch it was sooooooo YUMMMMM, then hung out all day till dinner time.

Sat: We met up for breakfast and a SPA DAY w/my Aunties while the boys and the kids stayed @ the appartment. It was so fun and RELAXING even tho there was not much for me to do being prego but just being pampered and tended to was LOVELY. All the ladies got a Sweetish massage and I got a prenatal massage.
I was so excited to get a message (thinking they were going to get all my kinks out) boy was I wrong..lol They couldn't rub my feet either.(WHAT YOU SAY) Yes, I definitly learned. They don't rub ur feet because we have pressure points on the bottom of our feet. I asked if she could rub a lil harder but she told me she couldn't because I could contract early. Who would have known. Even tho it wasn't rough at all it was really nice.
We got a call from the boys that dinner was @ 5 at my place and to not be late..lol
I was in tears my lil brother and Dad rearranged my lil apartment bought and set up and decorated my tree and made dinner. I love them they are constantly there for me and mindful of my husband and always make him feel comfortable.  I love the men they are and grateful for them. We ate opened up gifts laughed ate some more and made wonderful memories. This lil girl will be so spoiled but for now I'll be spoiled till she gets here!)

                     

                                                            Thank you alI, love yous!!

Okay don't get me wrong it wasn't horrible or anything it just wasn't the SAME. Plus hello I had to cook and do all the running around for things we may have forgotten, ummm so not fun!

The plan cook early eat early
Turkey went in @ about 5:30 done @ about 8:30 ish
Made chicken for my daughter because she's allergic to turkey.
Made Ribs, veggies and then gravy oh yeah and mash potatoes.
Nothing BIG just kept it simple for ummm yeah myself..lol

So after eating we did nothing but hang around together you know the same thing we do every day kind of thing. Chris told me that morning  his LiL Brother and their family were coming in so I cleaned not that there was a BIG mess I just like clean sheets and extra clean house when we have ppl over, whom ever it may be. So lets just say I cooked and cleaned most of THANKSGIVING, yay FUN..lol

                            

Oh and did I mention my CHEESE CAKE that Latai dropped off b4 she headed to Cali that morning because she LaLaLa LOVES me..lol

We were very excited to have Don, Ruby and Bby NAISA come over and I had  told my daughter she had SURPRISE VISITORS coming over to stay with us and BOY was she HAPPY to see Don, Ru and especially her bby cousin NAISA. We took a tour, hung out, played tetris till late laughed and watched  movies..lol I finally went to bed @ 5 and POP'd up @ 10am. I did NOTHING on BLACKfriday but kick up my poor fat feet..lol
Sat we hung with bbyNAISA and his peeps and we just LOVE him. He is such a HAPPY BABY unless he sees uncle Chris and his facial expression QUICKLY changes  its HILARIOUS..lol and my daughter wanted to carry him ALL DAY..lol She was also very sad when they left.

My daughters asked her Uncle Don "Don when are you gonna come back to visit?"
Don "We'll be back when you graduate"
lol

I enjoyed our lil FAMILY on Thanksgiving but HOLIDAYS for me is being with our FAMILY. I told my husband this would be our last year doing this. My thing is we are together EVERY DAY with each other and when it's the HOLIDAYs we should go and be with our FAMILY.
