Adios Abu ~ school show ~ updates......

So Abu spend 5 days with us full of joy and allot of help for me, I was able to run some errands without the girls, and Abu helped me so much around the house, she fix closets, clean fridge, help me sew our Christmas pants so so many things she is just great.  Nenas always remember Abu is a special person she brought mami to this world and worked very hard so we could grow up and be good human beings.  Also remember one day Abu is going to be old and we would take care of her like she took care of us.  Remember our grandparents are there to be taken care and loved.


Abu was lucky enough to take Samia to dance I know all of this stuff makes her so happy and best of all today we went to her school Christmas play.  It was great she sang away she also got to wear her reindeer red shirt that she made.  She also wanted to wear 3 pony tails instead of 2 don't ask me where she got her new hair do.

Samia yesterday you fix your little friends goody bags, you were so thrill about fixing them and putting them in each of your friends cub...I just love the fact you love to share.


You did very good in your presentation you sang very well and enjoy your time and by the way you were picking at us I know you were super excited about seeing Abu and me there.

Gamila you entertain Abu with your chachara wow can you talk up a storm...I am not sure how you go from singing merry xmas to twinkle start and then a story about Samantie and Samia ...you make up stories and love to make us laugh.
Milo also yuyu is now your best friend a few weeks back you did not even want to be near the poor dog, now you wake up and want her right away.

In a different note yesterday I went for my 28 week check up I was so happy when I was told I had pass my glucose test with flying colors that was not possible, I though it was wrong since with the two other pregnancies I had to inject insulin and everything I could not believe it and to top it off I had lost 2 lbs that was even better.  So far we are doing fine...I finish sewing some cool pants for my little nene...after Christmas I will finish embroidery a few onesis to match pants, I am also crocheting a blanket and I will be making him some blankets if I ever make my mind with the fabric choices I also have some burp cloths to make...


I am so excited nene I can not wait to hold you is amazing how much I love you already...

Fall with the girls!

 

It has being a busy couple of days, I like keeping busy, Nenas always keeps busy it helps your mind and everyone around you.  Sunday I baked muffins some were banana with nuts and the others were pumpkin with chocolate.  I loved those even though my Samia does not like chocolate baba, Milo and myself devoure them.  I also got a chance to use these templates I found on line a couple of weeks back. 

On Monday I got the chance to see some of the girls from the mommy group it was nice seeing them and knowing that although I had not done anything with the group for a while their friendship still there without any reproach, I really appreciate that.  Nenas always remember friends are to be enjoy when they are around.  Do not ever become dependent of a friendship or judge others for their actions, there is always a reason of why people act a certain way or do certain things.  We all make mistakes and we are nobody to judge them and if by any chance you dislike something a friend does have the decency to tell them in their face what you dislike, if they a real friend they would listen.  Also don't hold a grudge always remember it only hurts you and takes away from the positive energy you can give others.

So Halloween is around the corner and Ms. Samia wanted to be a Aurora for a while then it change to Jazmine but since we left to Miami her new costume is the Unicorn from Little Pony yes you are reading it right.   How can you change from a  princess to a horse, but what can I say it has being in her head for over 3 weeks and even though I have show her repeatedly the princess costumes she still sticking to her Unicorn.  So having no choice I came up with the costume with the help of baba like always.  Milo you love to get involve in everything we do specially when we are not looking around, here you are trying to get into the costume and poor Samia is looking like no Milo that is mine!

 

Samia here you are with your finish costume

 

Today we went to a pumpkin patch actually to the school that Samia goes it was great they had a story time with cookies and drinks plus a pumpkin Samia loved it. The place was decorated great.

 

  

 

 

While the kids nap I finally finish a dress for Samia, I fell in love with the fabric the moment I saw it.

Now I am sick but I have to take care of the las nenas, in another note my belly is growing and growing although I have to admit I had a prior belly so they are in the process of combining, although I can fit in my pants my shirts are a no between the boobs and the belly expending I am in need of new shirts.  Everywhere I have read you start showing much earlier in the third pregnancy no wonder I feel like a ballon.  I am already 12 weeks I can not believe it.

Between so much sickeness I had get a chance to do some sewing I am going back to my regular routine, I being skipping my afternoon nap so I can sew a little, usually I cut at night and sew during the day.  Yesterday I did a skirt with shorts for Samia, since she loves to wear skirts but I want to make sure she has a short under since she does not know how to sit yet.  She loved her skirt, the best part was when she would try it on, Milo you go mami I try too.  After finishing the skirt I found a white shirt that had some stains so I made some butterflies so you could wear it with the skirt. I have to be hones the skirt is a bit too much with the ruffles and all but I know she likes it and that is what matters.

News and more news!

Okey so I am back to reality and with many many news:

I am going to be an aunt again...si nenas finally you guys would have a cousin in your own age group yeppy yeppy.

We are moving again nenas not sure where but again in the run so in other words Baton Rouge Salam (I think Target thinks that because baba is arab he is a bedouin moving from place to place)

Baba would be gone for the next couple of weeks he would most likely be coming and going.

New House that I got to design but never lived there(this makes me a little sad and blue but oh well)

The not knowing where our home would be till about 2 weeks is driving me a bit crazy poor nails don't have much left of them.

So Samia this is an update about you....lately when we are out and about specially stores when you don't get your way you start screaming and even throwing your self in the floor in my spanish way this is called MALCRIADA CULICAGADA american way we will call this temper tamtrum. Many things arise when you do this I get people staring at me I get embarrass I think they are thinking I am trying to kidnapp you and the worst part I start sweating like I just finish running a marathon. SO I have tried talking, bribing and nothing works and I even had the idea of telling you I was going to spank you with la chancla. Your response - La chancla en la casa (The chancla is at home)...

Abuela came to the rescue I call abuela almost crying from the car and told her the show you had just made in the store and your response so her advice next time you come out of your house you show her that the chancla is in your bag. So needless to say now not only I carry pampers, wipes, cream but also mami magic wand the CHANCLA. So if you guys see a crazy lady pulling a chancla out of her purse when she is checking out that is ME. Will update on how this is goign to work next time Samia decides to act up. Hard to believe this nice girl.
