Yippy Yip Yip Yip!!

The looooong, and I do mean LONG....wait is ovah!!! I am proud to mention that I am the parent of a very, and I do mean LAZY, baby!! Nothing is wrong with him!! Yippy!! He is just really stubborn (like his parents) and wants to do things at his own pace. Today he had an appointment with neurologist and she found nothing wrong. He has started physical therapy and is NOW finally pulling himself up and climbing up our stairs (after I tempted him with a chocolate doughnut). I am still probably going to post here and there though. Lately, there is just so much crazy people bothering us...(I have a few good stories, like how we called the police on a drunk harassing us at home and 4 cop cars showed up. And how my brother-in-law decided to call my mother-in-law at work and decided to threaten to kill her co-workers. Fun times follow us!) Also, I get to start work again! 2008 is proving to be a very interesting year for Jonathan and I. But in the end we prevail and that's all that matters, right? Thank you all for your cares and concerns. I've been busy trying to keep my 5 yr old and my 1 yr old busy. And trying to get that baby to walk! I haven't been able to tell each and everyone of you thank you for everything. Yes, thank you all sooooo much and I love you all!!!

I'm going crazy.

Sorry I haven't been around posting much. It's just one damn thing after another. And now the center of my focus is on Baby Nicky..again. I took him in for his check-up and told them he is STILL not walking. And then I get this, "You should have brought him in at 15 months! If babies don't walk at 15 months there could be a problem". Well thanks! The last doctor told me not to worry and he's just probably lazy. Long story short, I have to take him to the neurology department at the university because they think he might have cerebral palsy. Why do they have to tell you what your child "might" have? I don't want to know! Don't make me more freaked out than I already am, right? Just say, 'take him here to get him checked out. We'll get a better idea why he's not walking'. Moving on. So I'm trying to get him an appointment and I still can't get him in...even with the doctor's referral. Nice. I'm going around in circles trying to get him in, but it seems like nothing is happening. Except making me more depressed. I've cried a few times over this. There is a little tiny bit of hope that I do clench tightly to. After Nicky's appointment, I visited my mother and she introduced me to a woman that has kids the same ages as Nate and Nicky. Her and I got to talking and she told me about her friend that went through the same thing I'm going through. Nothing was wrong with her friend's son. He was just lazy and/or slow, and didn't start walking until he was almost 3! I was thinking...Good God! I don't know if I could carry Nick around everywhere until he was three, but if it meant he was not sick I could deal with it. Anyway, that's what's up. I'm not going to be posting, I don't really feel up to it. But when things start moving smoothly again blog wise, I'll bug you guys and tell you. Take care!! Love you all!!

Part 2!

We went on this fun tour that took Jon & I around Oahu.
Dole Plantation! They had pineapple everything! Ice cream, candies, fresh pineapple slices...I'd just wished I liked pineapple... :/This is a Baptist church that also owned a golf course at the bottom of a cliff. And this is what happened at the top of the cliff...The Battle of Nu'uanu Pali.This was our tour guide! He was from New York and talked like my Lobstah! He was so fun! Our view outside of our room. Looks like a postcard, huh!?
We went to Germaine's Luau. I loved it! The dancers show you the different kinds of hula dancing! Those girl's hips move 100 mph, it was crazy!! We also went on a bike & hike. This is us after biking, and that is Honululu behind us!

This is me before the hike. I had brand new white shoes, but I didn't want them to get dirty, so they gave me these boots!! That day wore me out!! Plus, I almost wiped out on a bike! haha But it was a really fun trip!!

Mmm..Another Sex Tape!

When I saw this on Dlisted, I just about cried!! It's a sex tape of Ryan Phillipe and Veatrice from the Jimmy Kimmel Show. I always thought Ryan was one of those guys that was always serious...I'm JEEELLLLUSS of Veatrice!! I want you to get the fck up off of my leg Ryan Phillipe!! Enjoy!

Honeymoon Time!

We went to Honolulu, Hawaii for our honeymoon. I highly recommend that you visit Hawaii sometime in your life. Jon and I promised each other that every 5 years we're going back. Watch out Hawaii, I'm coming back 2013! We were thinking about taking the kids there, but screw that! If they want to go, they can pay for themselves!! haha jk. It was so weird that I had no one to take care of (except myself) for a whole week! If we wanted to go somewhere, we could just GO, instead of having to find someone to baby sit our kids. One night we didn't want to be in our hotel room, so we just walked to the beach. Moving on! I have tons of pictures so this will probably be a 2 part post-thang. Just to show you how clear the water is!! This is where they filmed part of From Here to Eternity... and then that big wave comes splashing down...
We took a submarine ride and we saw sunken ships and airplanes that crashed. While we were down we saw sharks, tons of fish, sting rays, and my favorite sea turtles! Arrrrr!! Sea turtles!! Strapped to my boots! (sorry Pirates of the Caribbean moment) This is the U.S.S. Arizona. When you go there you have to watch a 20 minute movie about what happened. And they have a lot of footage of the devastation. The reason they had this video of everything was because one soldier wanted to show his parents where he was and what he did, so he was filming and then hell broke loose. I cried. These were kids that were under attack, 17,18,19 yr olds. A lot were brothers. I felt so bad for the parents. I don't know what I would do if both my boys died. And Nathan is driving me nuts because every time he sees a military commercial he says, I'm going to do that. I know he's only 5, but its like, what if? He's been saying it for 2 years now...anyway. Whatever he does, I'll support it! This is the oil that is leaking from the Arizona. Right when you step out on the memorial you can smell the oil. And the feeling is just so heavy. It's hard not to cry. Right before you go to the memorial they tell you, "This is the soldiers grave, please have respect for them and reframe from talking." And while most people kept it quiet, only the really old people and the Japanese were talking loud. I can get the old folk, perhaps their old, hairy ears don't work anymore...but the Japanese, I don't know. God bless Japanese people, I don't hate them, but it makes you paranoid when they are talking loud and laughing at the memorial. That's all I going to say about that! ...uh.. onward!
And this is the U.S.S. Missouri. It also was damaged during the air raid, but they were able to salvage it. It was amazing to see that battleship. Truely amazing! Def. see the U.S.S. Arizona. There is also a museum of what the kids did on the ships (baseball teams, etc.) as well as the telegrams that was sent to the families about there loved ones death. Well that is all I'm going to post for now. I'll get another post up soon!!

If I was a guy, I would look like my brother. Tee hee. Genetically, we both have the exact same facial features. It's neat that we have the same mouth because his son and Nick both have our mouths.

I WILL post about my honeymoon, only because I KNOW I had a past life in Hawaii. That's the most beautifulestally place I have ever been in my life. I loved it there. Plan a trip to Hawaii, trust me, it's worth it.
