Just the Girls

It is always fun to get together with the girls! Thanks Brian for letting me go out twice last week with the girls!

These are some girls in my neighborhood. We went to dinner at Olive Garden. So fun!

The night before I went to dinner and shopping with my friends, Sariah and Kristin. We ate at Asian Star. Yummmm! It was so delicious. I love these girls.

Playing with Kristin's extensions.

Haha. That is so gross.

A MUCH NEEDED vacation

This may be my longest post ever. So a few weeks ago, one of Brian's best friend, Josh got married at the San Diego temple. It was so wonderful. The weather was great and these 2 were so happy. They are so perfect for each other. I was so happy when I found out they were getting married in CA because I wanted a vacation. Brian's parents took the boys and we brought Sarah. My whole family went because he is best friends with my bro Bobby. He is pretty much part of the family. He is like the asian brother I never had.

YAHOO! Pat, Lil, and Tim (my siblings)

Me, Mom and Lil

Are we ever serious?

SMOKIN' HOT

So we got a little bored and were having the guys take funny pictures of us pretending to laugh. We were really cheesy and ended up laughing hysterically at the end.

We made our husbands do the same thing.

Most of these guys have been friends since middle school. How lucky to have such close friends.

The dinner afterwards was so much fun. We ate at this delicious pizza place and just hung out.
Brian and I.

One of my best friends, Abby, and Sarah. Sarah slept pretty much the entire time. She was so good.

We went outside for dessert. I haven't seen these 2 happier.

Beautiful view.

DISNEYLAND
We couldn't do a trip without Disneyland. This is just what I needed. This made me so happy. I love Disneyland. The whole time I kept thinking about how much I wanted Danny and Sam there but it was nice to do whatever we wanted.

Let me just show you how excited we were to be here:

I wasn't the only one excited. This is Brian's friend, Danny who brought his girlfriend and came with us. He makes me laugh.

I told you I was happy to be here. I love the people's faces behind me.

So the last time my family went to Disneyland, my mom wanted this horse stuffed animal. Everyone took turns playing this game, trying to win it for her and no one did. So finally this group of young girls were playing and my dad decided to join the game so that he would have a good chance of winning (how hard can it be to beat a bunch of young girls, right?). Well he lost to this little girl. Haha. So none of them won it. Well this time we decided to all play at the same time so that no matter who won, my mom would get it. I know we are so smart.

I love my dad's face here. He won and was so proud of it.

They picked us to go in a little early and we were so excited!

Goodbye Disneyland! Thank you for making us so happy!

Feeling Much Better

Sarah has been the last one to get over being sick around here. On Monday night, she was just miserable and finally at 2 a.m. I put her in her swing and she fell asleep at 2:30 a.m. I was so tired, I just passed out on my bed. She woke up 2 hours later and was wide awake. Long story short, she maybe slept 4 hours that night.
I took her into the doctor the next day for her 2 month appointment (no, I haven't gone completely crazy from all of the doctor visits yet) and her RSV was gone but she had an ear infection. Poor thing.
Ever since she has been on her antibiotics, she has been so happy. She doesn't cry when I lay her down and she has smiled a few times. Needless to say, I have been much happier. She was in the 95% for weight. I wasn't surprised.

Sarah's First Day At Church
I wanted to get a picture of all of the kids before we went to church on Sunday. Brian was out of town and I needed to be there for my church calling so we were a little late but we made it.

Before I had any kids, I was shopping at the Secret Garden and I saw this cute red dress. She is in kind of a weird position but it is just adorable. I decided to buy it for when I had a girl. I was so excited to put her in it.

If I have to go to the doctor one more time...

...I will go crazy.
We just got back from our 5th doctor's appointment this week.
It was confirmed today that poor Sarah has RSV. She got it from the boys but since they are older, they can deal with it much better.
Over the past 2 weeks we have seen the doctor 8 times between all of us.
It has been quite miserable.
I am on my second kidney infection (they can't give me very strong antibiotics because I am nursing),
Sam and Danny both had their viruses and
Sam has an ear infection and
Sarah has RSV.
Brian has been traveling and with all of this going on, I just take it out on him. I feel bad but at the same time I get frustrated while he is gone.
Oh well, it could be much worse so I will stop complaining.
We have to put Sarah on a nebulizer a few times a day to help her lungs. Danny freaks out the whole time because he thinks it hurts her.
Speaking of Danny, I have had to rely on him to help me a lot and he does every thing I ask. He is such a sweetheart.
Sam has been being a little naughty to get my attention. Poor guy.
Hopefully this will be over soon.
When I told my cousin, Abby that Sarah was having a hard time breathing, she asked if it was because she was so fat. I laughed really hard. She is so cute and chubby.

And on top of all that, I have decided to start counting calories for the first time in my life and I have cut out desserts and candy. I feel empty. I am so use to eating sweets all day. They make me so incredibly happy. Dang you, sweet tooth.

So in LOVE

Here are some more pictures that Jennie took of Sarah when she was 11 days old. I just love how sweet Sarah is and I love that Jennie is so amazing at capturing that in her photos. Thank you Jennie. I appreciate these so much more than you know. Enjoy!

I love you Brian

I also love my boys
