absent minded ness

We had a very blessed Easter. Our church Children's ministry performed a skit based off of high school musical and we changed it to Sunday School Musical. It was fun working with the kids and they seemed to really enjoy it. Me and hubs had a little scare. We were practicing before service at a house right across from our church. The kids lined up and walked over. I didn't go with the group and I went through a different entrance because I had to use the bathroom.

I went and sat with hubs and saw the group of kids all sitting in the front. When we were 5 minutes in to the skit and it was time for Bunny's line, I realized she wasn't there. I looked at hubs and he darted out to look for Bunny. She was missing. Hubs found her in the church nursery . She was left outside and when a man found her crying, he took her to the nursery. She made it for the last song of the skit and she was crying on her way on stage. She was hyperventilating. Poor kid. I don't know how she got left behind. We were so scared. She was sad she wasn't able to say her line but Bunny got to say her line when we performed our skit again at a nursing home after service.

I have been so absent-minded or just preoccupied that I just don't seem to pay attention. Yesterday, I was running a bath for the girls and while the kids were undressing, I thought I'd just look for their spring cardigans in some totes. The kids were running around in the hall and then Bunny comes running in and she said that "puppy fell in". I rush towards the bathroom and I see Puppy crawling in to the bedroom with a big red mark on his forehead drenched from head to belly. His eyes were teary eyed and he was gulping air like he just swallowed a lot of water. I realized he fell in the water head first and I grabbed him and just held him while Bunny told me what happened. Puppy fell in the water and Bunny ran to him and lifted him out and carried him out of the bathroom. She was so scared and her flight reflex saved Puppy. Hubs ran up from the commotion and I told him what happened and he was so angry. He didnt' yell at me but I know he wanted to. I heard tragic stories of babies drowning from buckets of water, bath tub filled with water, and pools. I didn't think it could have happened to me. I am so grateful that bunny saw it and her reflex was to fish him out and not to come get me.
I felt so horrible and I learned my lesson. Never again, will I do that. I will never walk away from a bath tub filled with water. NEVER

So today, Hubs was telling me that he's worried because I am either going to kill or lose a child during this pregnancy. I know he was kidding but I need to really pay attention to detail. With each pregnancy, I feel like I'm just not with it and it just gets worse with each one.

Damaged

Do, do you got a first aid kit handy?
Do, do you know how to patch up a wound tell me,
Are, are, are you, are you patient, understanding,
Cuz I might need some time to clear the hold on my heart and I
You try to gain my trust, [trust] talking is not enough
Actions speak louder than words
You gotta show us something
My heart is missing some pieces
I need this puzzle put together again

Damaged, Damaged, Damaged, Damaged
I thought that I should let you know, that my heart is
Damaged, damaged, so damaged, so damaged

Horton Hears A Who

Hubby and I have been going through some stressful times and unfortunately, it has effected Bunny. It's been a lot better and I thought that it would be nice if I took her out for some "mommy and me" time. I told her that I was going to take her to see 'Horton Hears a Who' at the movie theaters. She was so excited. Over a year ago, it was her favorite bedtime story but when I asked her about the book, she had no recollection of it. She was excited that she was going to have mommy all to herself. I took Lamb with me to pick up Bunny and on our way home, Bunny was letting Lamb know that we were going to go on a date. Lamb had no clue what Bunny was jabbering on and translated it as, "mommy, Bunny said that I can't go home... ah!!" and broke out in to tears. I comforted her that that wasn't the case. Lamb was upset that we were going to the movies and she was not but I bribed her by saying that I'd bring home an icee for her. Then she was fine.

It was a great time and Bunny had a smile from ear to ear the whole time. While we were out, she kept asking "are we still on a date, mommy?" Then at home, I was making dinner and she comes up and she give me a hug and she asks," mommy, are we still on a date?" I laughed and told her now that we are home, our date day is over but we'll have many more. She runs off hooting and hollering all happy. I hope she'll always be that excited to hang out with me.

The movie was great. Check out my review.

I've been watching Making the Band 4 Season 2. It's another mtv reality show following 3 of Diddy's music creations... Danity Kane, Day 26 and Donnie... girl group, male group, and a male solo. I was a fan of the season of finding the female superstar group. Well, any way... One of the males were acting a bit diva-ish or let say a bit catty... And Diddy wanted to squash that kind of behavior and called it "bitchass-ness".. There is no room for "bitchass-ness"! Bitchass-ness will ruin the group ... yada yada I found the word really funny. I'd like to use the word because I've been having some bitchass-ness in me lately. hahahaha So random but thought I'd share...

today, Lindsay Price was on rachel ray. I remember her in the 80's doing a toys rus commercial and was pleasantly surprised to see an asian looking gal on tv. Thus, opening my dreams for a career in theater. I quickly forgot about her but I still had a dream to be an actress/director/producer ... something to do with drama. As many korean parents, they squashed my dream every time I brought it up. The dream has gone but not forgotten... I saw Price and she's really cute and she's now in the show 'Lipstick Jungle' on NBC. It got picked up so I'm assuming it's doing well. Price is starring with Kim raver (24) and Brooke Shields. She's cute. I was surprised when she told rachel ray that her mother is korean. Price is half korean. Not only was she korean, but she's my age.

Growing up how my parents would continue to tell me that there would be no asian faces in the entertainment industry. How impossible it would be because America would never be open to Asians in the industry.

Now, if they see, Price, sandra Oh, and YunJin Kim (lost). Many more... I'm sure the road to their success was long and hard but at least they went for it.

AH!! But I know that I am where I should be and I am content just watching movies and admiring or complaining what I see. :)

I'm feeling so icky... so very icky. I've reached the weight that I weighed when i delivered Jonah about 10 months ago. I do feel big. Not only do I feel big but I feel unhealthy. I'm still in denial that I'm even pregnant.

I went for my ultrasound on Wednesday. AGAIN, they can't see what I'm having. I have a feeling that I'm having a girl but I had that same feeling with Jonah. So... I'll be surprised once again. It's nice when that time comes but just getting there is the problem. I am so impatient.

I have a special bond with my boy. He is so sweet and he is such a momma's boy. He's reaching and standing like a pro. He's crawling like a pro. He'll wave hi and bi with his arms. He'll play peek a boo. He loves hitting and smacking Jadyn for some reason. He laughs and smiles at Emma all the time. I love him so much. I'm kind of hoping that he'll be my one and only boy but if this one is a boy, it may be a good thing for Jonah.

We spent 5 days in Orlando, Florida at Disney World. We stayed at the Animal kingdom. The girls loved it. They've been looking forward to the trip and we'd mark off each day on the calender until the day we left. The first day, we entered Magic Kingdom without any plan and we felt so out of it. Also, I lost Lamb's luvie. Her beloved comfy cozy lamb. Lamb had it on her at the hotel during check in and we went up to our room and I realized she didn't have it. I asked her where her lamb is and she said "Oh, no... I left on the plane" I told her she didn't. So hubby ran down to the lobby looking all over for it. He couldn't find it anywhere. We thought we were going to have a long night but she was good. They slept in bunk beds for the first time. They enjoyed it. Bunny kept saying that "we have the best hotel room ever." The hotel found Lamb's Luvie and returned it. Lamb was so happy. She kept hugging and kissing the lamb and saying,"I'm so hap-pey!"

The rest of the days we mapped out a plan for the day so it went smoother and the girls got to go on rides. They saw characters and got their autographs. It was great. On our 2nd night, we were at epcot and got stuck in a rainstorm. We tried to wait it out but the girls were tired and Puppy was exhausted. So we got ponchos for everyone and ran through epcot to the entrance in pouring rain. We were soaked through except for Puppy. We did our best to shield him from the ran and he was asleep through most of the ordeal.

Lamb's not a very affectionate person but all through out the trip she had a smile from ear to ear and she'd tell me and hubby that she loved us and showered us with kisses. She'd pucker up and go, "I'm so happy, KISS." She is so funny.

It was a fun trip and it was nice to get away from everyday life. It's been tough the last couple of months and it was a good time for our family.
