To Gentry

Happy Fathers Day...Almost!
Although he isn't a "Dad" quite yet he does have something in the works that he is super excited to meet! He is going to teach her everything I wouldn't, he is going to let her do everything I wouldn't, he is going to show her such love that I won't be able to show her because there is something about a dad a girl adores. I'm excited to see their bond, I'm excited to see if she has my favorite characteristics about him, I'm excited to see if she will have his carefree attitude and skip my stress mania personality, I'm excited to see his reaction when he first lays eyes on her. I know he is going to be a great dad and I am excited to witness it in just a couple months! We love you Gentry!

WHO?!?!


Attention future casters (my definition: people who cast people for movies) for The Grinch Stole Christmas my child may be the perfect candidate for the leading role of a WHO!


HAHAHAHA She cracks me up a ton!!!!!! I'm pretty sure she may be sucking her bottom lip or something because this is the only ultrasound picture that looks like this but is it not totally funny? I don't think her dad aka my husband likes it when I make fun of her but really how could you not laugh about it? She is totally cute and my favorite but I am still her mom and can think she is silly!

Kicker

At 19 weeks I still hadn't felt this girl move but i know she is active due to the ultrasound on Tuesday, she was all over the place! We were laying in bed last night trying to go to sleep, I guess I should say I was trying Gentry was out cold, anyways it was then I felt something weird. I thought it was just gas but then it happened again and again and again and again one after another for probably five minutes. I was giddy with excitement and contemplating waking Gentry up, I tried and said hey give me your hand and feel this... his response "Cool" and when right back to sleep! haha I asked him this morning if he remembers anything from last night and said he remembers me bothering him but doesn't remember feeling anything! It was just seconds later that I felt her push her head, butt, or something round into my left side and luckily he could feel and see that! It was sooo super cool! Just thought I would document this so I don't forget that she has started out as a very active individual!

To a friend/brother

Yesterday marked 8 years since my dear friend Carl Iaulualo passed on. I remember it like it was yesterday, nothing can prepare you for such shocking news. A lot of people knew this great individual but no one got to experience living as close to him as my family did. Those memories with my siblings and the Iaulualo's are ones I hold dear to my heart. Yesterday many people were talking about stories they remember about him, but I had a different outlook yesterday, I feel as if he was telling my sweet little girl stories about me to prepare her for me! I am so grateful that he was such a great friend/brother from another mother! I think many people feel the same way, he wasn't just a friend but family to them! Here's to you Carl, I love and miss you tons but thank you for loving my little girl up there!
