Carni-Val!

Friday we took Ally and Adrian to the carnival here in San Benito. She had a great time, but Mr. Adrian, hay Dios mio!! Allyson and Hailey had a good time. Ally made us laugh because she was being all brave by attempting to get on the huge slide they had there. A second later, she comes out and says "It's too dark in there!" as she swung her arms like "I can't do it!" We were laughing and told her it was ok, so she sat in the Carnies chair. My princess! She would always make Hailey go first on the rides anyways. Hee hee.




Adrian's Daycare Story

My chiquito has been attending Daycare for about 5 weeks now. I had been meaning to mention it on my Blog, but hadn't. We already knew that when he turned 18 months he would probably be leaving grandma's arms. Of course, no one is happy about this, but this is how life has to be right now. We were and are so blessed to have Abel's mom in our lives! She has been a tremendous amount of help, or shall I say a humongous blessing.

The day finally came and we were so lucky to find a good person to care for Adrian. She lives right across from Ally's Elementary School. Adrian has done great from day one. We took him over several times before we actually left him there all alone. He always seemed to like it, and he didn't want to leave. Then on his first day, Abel and I took him, and he acted like he knew that he would be staying that time.

He used to cry more in the beginning. Now he does his little sad face and waves "BYE." Teacher Stella says that "out of sight, out of mind." She reports that as soon as we leave, he is fine all day! She always tells us that he is a very good little boy and that he interacts well with the other little kiddos. I'm happy because I know this is still a benefit for him. Although it still breaks my heart when I leave :( We love you papito!!!

Grandma is still helping, she picks up Ally, Hailey and Adrian at 3:00...

Be A Man!

Abel told me to be a MAN this morning :( Why? Because I am NOT to fond of reptiles! I went to the sink this morning and there was a darn Lizard there. GAAARRROSSSS!!! I stepped back right away and yelled for Abel. I did not care that he was in his office (10-100, 200?). He was yelling at me to wait and I kept yelling at him to hurry up and come to the kitchen!!!! I felt like crying :*(

The stupid thing was kinda albino with a little pink, EWE!!!!! It was trying to climb out of the sink..... I was trying not to look, but when Abel finally came, he couldn't see it!!!! So I looked and it had already made it to the other side of the sink! Meanwhile, I'm making all these whining noises, or retarded noises as Abel called them.

I picked up Adrian and jumped on the sofa while Abel was attempting to murder it, EWE!!! He told me "It doesn't want to die!" Ay, Ay, Ay! Finally he tells me to open the door quickly, AS IF I wanted to!!! I did and that was the end of that. :P Abel told me I should've been a man and killed it, I don't think so!

Have you ever been -$597.58 at the bank?

Where do I start? So my hubby won't get so so so mad when he reads this? OUCH! I can feel the pain now!!!!!!

Anyways, it goes back to 3/16/08. I finally decided to balance the check book..... All this time I had been doing figures in my head, and we all know how that goes. The figures in my head looked good! I believe I balanced at home that night (3/16/08). Almost 10 days after getting the income tax return and spending and spending and then a little more spending.

By the time I was balancing, I had already withdrawn an extra $1,500 from one bank account to deposit into another. I just knew I was able to do that! I just knew we had it there! To my darn surprise....................... I ended up being a whopping negative $597.58!!!!!! (After the withdrawal) Message to Abel: "Don't get mad hunny!" I can't remember if I was able to sleep that night. I couldn't wait for it to be morning to go back to the bank that I had just deposited the $1,500 and withdraw only $650.00 to put back. How am I going to put this $$$$ back? Dunno? How am I going to explain this to Abel? ANSWER: I'm not....ouch!!

It was now Monday, March 17, 2008. I rushed to the banks, to withdraw from one and deposit into the other. I was able to wipe the sweat off my forehead, for now. Nothing should bounce now. I was so worried! I don't know how this happened!!!!!!! Our new balance..... $52.42. Green, not red.

Since that day, I have not spent unnecessary monies. Not only because of that, but also because Babel has me on a budget. The kind of budget where he keeps the $$ in his wallet, and not in mine :( I did not hesitate giving him the money. (Hee Hee....only I knew what had just happened) I didn't mind either because he is real good, he won't deny me anything I need, notice I said need, and not want. So, Monday night, I handed over all the $$$. I didn't even put up a fight.

Today I got paid, TONIGHT I balanced the check book again! GOOD LORD, I found an error!!! AHHH!!! GRRRRRRR! A good error though, our balance is only $765.72 more than what I thought!!! Can you believe that? I went back all the way to November 2007 because something wasn't coming out right? The check book said one thing and the bank said another? And everything has already cleared? Low and behold, I counted a deposit as a withdrawal. Que nina. VERY HAPPY ENDING. I JUST HOPE ABEL READ THIS FAR. LOL!

BTW: This is story problem. What is the true and final balance?

Let's Jiggy!

Although this movie is older, it keeps coming up. I absolutely love the part I have put here for your viewing pleasure. It makes me Literally Laugh Out Loud when I see it. I had to make it part of my blog, I just had to!

When I went out on Friday night with the girls, this very same part was playing on the TV's. Christy and I were cracking up and were repeating the words. When I listen to this song in the car, I dance like him! I don't even care if people are looking or staring....I'm having FUN! So, without further delay............ Here's a clip from "HITCH"



I ALSO LIKED THESE MOVES, BUT NOTHING LIKE THE FIRST ONES!

Girls night out!

OMG, this past Friday was my first "Girls night out!" It was a bunch of fun...as Christy put it, we have to release the pressure valve! All I have to say is that my laugh got some attention and even almost got us kicked out! Well, it wasn't only my laugh! I also got to meet several neat ladies. For sure, it was an unforgettable night!

Mr. Mine

Adrian's little vocabulary is expanding quickly!!! It's so cute! He is starting to say alot more words like "MINE." It seems to be one of his favorites. He usually says that when he wants something. If we're drinking something, he'll say...mine. So then we share.

Yesterday he had a physical done, and he received a book. As we were reading it, I said "APPLE," and he clearly repeated it! He can say words such as:

**Daddy, Momma, Bye, Pan, Ally, Hailey, Bo, Ball, Candy, Tea, Awe Man, Rumba, Kitty, Coke and several others.

I can't wait to hear more new words!!! :D
