That's What She Said

I am so excited!! Finally, my favorite show is back on. I have something to look forward to on Thursday nights again. (Pathetic- I know) I sure have missed the gang at Dunder Mifflin! :)

This Week's Events

I guess this is just mostly for journaling today so it might be pretty boring. We started the past week off with a Labor Day picnic with Sione's family. We got together at Desert Breeze park in Chandler. It's a nice park with a little water park, a train, and a carousel. (I'm pretty sure that Roxxi has some memories of this park- right Roxxi?!) :) While we were there I went to get my camera to take some pictures of the kids. When I turned it on I noticed the entire screen was BUSTED! I was so mad. I don't know what happened to it, but the lens wouldn't open & the screen is totally ruined. So, I'm in the market for a new camera. Anyway, we had a good time & Maizi had a blast. Soakai loved the water too. Just wish I had some pictures to prove it.

On Tuesday, Maizi started preschool at Busy Bee Academy. A friend in our ward teaches it & it's just around the corner from me so it's great. It was so cute. She had her little backpack & everything - once again it would have been great to get a picture of this special day, but whatever. She will go on Tuesdays & Thursdays for a couple hours in the morning. Yeah!!! She seems to really like it & I think it will be good for her to be around other kids.
I am so excited- maybe now I can get a few things done around the house or get some grocery shopping done. So far it hasn't worked out exaclty like I had planned though. I was hoping that for the two hours that she's gone, Soakai would take a nap, but no such luck. Oh well.

On Saturday I spent the day with 2 of my sisters. I woke up kinda early & drove into Chandler where my sisters were having a garage sale so I stayed there til they were done. After that we went to my aunt's house where my cousin was having boutique with tons of cute stuff. I got a few new hair bows for Maizi. They are so cute & naturally she's already broken one. She only had it in her hair for like 2 minutes. That kid is something else! So, after that Roxxi & I went to a couple stores & then to go see about getting pedicures. I've been wanting to get one for so long. I don't think I've had one since I did it for my wedding. LONG time! It's kind of a long story, but bottom line- we didn't get them. We just couldn't really justify spending that much money on getting our toes painted when we could just do them ourselves. One day though, I will break down & go get one. Anyway, I had a lot of fun to have a break & just hang out with them yesterday, especially by ourselves & no crying, whining kids. We should do it more often!

So that 's pretty much all that happened this week. Hopefully I will have a new camera soon so I can post some pictures.

I Can See Clearly Now!!!

Maizi finally got her new glasses on Friday. We went to pick them up & get them all fitted...I don't know how this is going to work out, but so far she's been better than I thought she would about keeping them on. She even asks for them sometimes. I have to admit, she looks darn cute in them (for being the thickest lenses I've ever seen.!) :) Poor little girl. I don't know how she sees anything through them, but I guess the eye doctor knows more than I do. So we got them Friday & SURPRISE, SURPRISE....they're already BROKEN!!! They broke on Sunday so that lasted a whole 2 days. They're supposed to be the most flexible, bendable, virtually unbreakable pair of glasses they make, but leave it to Maizi to find a way to do it. Gotta love her!! So here are some pictures of her before they broke. I'm gonna have to figure out a way to get the glare of the lenses when I take pictures of her now. By the way...notice the flower headband she likes to wear around her waist & her bootie slippers from last winter that are too small that are now her favorite shoes.

Happy 2nd Birthday Maizi

Maizi turned TWO years old on the 23rd. I can't believe how big she's getting. It seems like we just had her 1st brithday. She actually had two parties this year....our families are just getting too dang big to have them together. So on Friday we had the Fa's over. Sione's sister, Mary, made an adorable cake for Maizi. It was Cinderella & she loved it. Thanks Mary! We had my family over on Sunday. We had a lot of fun this weekend & she loved all the attention. She got so many great presents and she had so much fun playing with all her cousins.

Thank you everyone for coming & sharing her day(s) with us- we really appreciate it.
