Goodnight Mr. Leno

I just wanted to say how much I have a crush on Mr. Leno. He's usually the last man I go to bed with and I'm heartbroken that he's leaving The Tonight Show, but I totally have a CRUSH on Conan O'Brien! Big kiss to Mr. Leno!

I am so thankful

I'm sitting on the couch thinking of all the fun exciting things I get to do in my life. Just recently I've been showing Nathan a few basic signs in ASL. I am a newbie, so we're learning together. I knew a few signs from being a nanny, and I bought a book right before Mr. Nathan was born. But as he grew, I was growing too with another pregnancy so I kind of put that aside for a while. He hardly ever since down but I have noticed getting the Leap Frog DVD and trying out the sign laugage is really helping. He's picking up the signs, and I can actually communicate with him better(I think). Now he's just getting frustrated at sharing and not getting his way, not because he can't tell me what he's feeling. I'm glad I decided to start doing that.

Nichelle, is just her own little lady. If she is mad...or wanting my attention she will literally chase after me to where I am. I didn't expect that she would be walking so soon, but Nathan has been wanting her to be mobile since he saw her in the hospital. She is very slender, very petite, but way strong. Have to be with Nathan around, who is stocky and strong as an ox. She can totally tackle him which probably isn't fair to him cause I have to remind him to be a gentleman and be nice to her. What a mean mom I am huh? I just saw an old picture of Nathan asleep on the floor, I wore him out that bad I guess. Nathan is usually pretty gentle with Nichelle, got lucky somehow with that. He's a huge helper around the house and wants to imitate me doing alot of things. His favorite is lying his baby down and kissing it goodnight. I'm like wow! That's fun! He's a great young man and I have a fantastic young lady!

I've been wanting to learn how to take fantastic pictures, which means I have to upgrade from my Kodak. I've had it for two years now, nothing wrong with an upgrade. Gonna boost the economy. I just want to fill my house with wonderful pictures of my family, it's been a dream of mine since I was I don't know 12 maybe. Pictures are important to my little family. My Aunt Jacquie loves pictures too. Her house is FILLED! I love going over there. Of course she's a Yuen Lui fan. But who isn't?

I better get to bed. I got a nice headbut from Nichelle this evening and the Advil I took is finally making me sleepy, but I can't miss Jay Leno. He's got two shows to go. I will talk to everyone soon! :)

Our Preview of the Summer


I know everyone enjoy the sunshine yesterday. We did. I got to try on a darling outfit for Nichelle, that we got via Maddie(her mom Krysten actually). I really liked it. And Nathan did too as well. Nathan enjoyed looking out the window with his outfit from Dancing with the Stars. We had that outfit on(the purple dress), took a nap(took the dress off)..changed and by the time we went to dinner with my Mom at Outback I changed Nichelle again. By this time it had started raining. I knew the sunshine wasn't going to last that long!
Since, today was a little more gray Nathan and I decided to write letter and to have a little Bob Ross art time. He did really well, and lucky enough these are washable markers so bathtime was very colorful. Nathan says "Hmm" alot, especially when he's not thinking about what's going on. So "Hmm" came out and he enjoyed getting to use the differentcolors. For some reason he expected me to know how to color on the tray to the high chair(it wasn't showing up) so I did my best acting job showing him the colors of the rainbow. So a few fun pictures to share of our private art session this afternoon.

1:27 in the morning

I really was ready to go to bed half an hour but I started listening to Michael Jackson(my Mom can tell you) and I just got carried away. I love Mike and one day ago he will be on top. I have even introuduce Mr. Jackson to my children(bless their heart they can't say turn it off mom) and Nathan seems to like it. But Nathan dances to anything(including Primary songs!)

I haven't heard back from the man I found on the internet who has the last name of Wilcox. I wrote him a couple of weeks ago and mailed the letter, included my phone number and no calls or a letter yet. I thought I would give it at least a couple of weeks. What would you do if you got a letter from someone claiming to be your niece and you haven't heard of such a person in at least 20 years. I'm just anxious cause I'd really like to know if he is my uncle and hopefully he can be a stepping stone for getting in contact with my father. I'm really afraid of the regection if I try to make contact with my father myself, so I thought this was a good way to start. Fingers crossed.

Hmmm, I can't wait to lie down. It's been a full week. Glad Mother's Day is on Sunday, be nice to hear the Primary kids sing to their moms. Now, when Nathan and Nichelle get to primary age and be able to sing to their mom, will I cry while playing the piano? Will I cry during the very favorited Sacrament meeting...I probably won't cry during the sacrement meeting...I'm sure I'll be reciting their parts with them. I can see it now. But I'm excited for Sunday.
