Chirstmas was…
Fun!
- This is my favorite! I loved it! It’s all I wanted!
They REALLY enjoyed their present! I’m SO glad we got noah that Diego Riding thingy… he loves it!
X-mas eve was good. I feel like not everyone that was over here had a good time, but I won’t stress out about it! I did! So did Dan & the boys!
It was us, F+S - The Worleys, K+M , The Pascuals, J+B and Kip, Dani + Kids came later…
It was SO awesome to see Beth! We had too much to catch up… 3 am was early for us!
X-mas day we had a brunch at F’s house very low key.
The kids got waaaay more gifts then we expected – they LOVED it!
70% of the gifts they got on x-mas eve were from K+M so K helped Benjamin open his packages – Every gift he opened he said:
- This is my favorite! I loved it! It’s all I wanted!
Cute, hu? He said that for EVERY gift! lol

Brazilian X-mas Brunch
As you can see bellow my kids did NOT like Santa! (If they only knew it’s their uncle!)
We had a very good time and pretty good food too. We missed some people - Sm was in Fl and so forth… (is that right? so forth?)
Anyways…I don’t have time to write details but we all had a great time! =)
Check out some pics!
Those are my favorite:
After that Linda & I scraped until like close to midnight. It was awesome to spend sometime with her alone, Dan had the kids so we worked and laught a lot! (laught? laughted?) whatever - my brain is not working today!

It’s not easy!
Mara’s dad passed away last week -so yesterday we went to Columbus to cry with our friend - Not just a visit it was healing all over the place. God filled her house with His angels; we had a blessed time with happiness, peace, answers to our questions, reconciliation and lots of love.
It’s had being almost 2 years since I saw/talked to her. So it was great. Half away of our visit we hear this beautiful music coming from the outside, we go check it was Daleth, Connie & Ze + another 2 families came to visit too. What a blessed time. The 2 families I met there were so much fun! =)
We all had a bunch of good laughs! Hopefully it was good to Mara too (Looked like it was!)
I can’t imagine how hard it is to loose a loving one. But as the brother said during the prayer – he was ready – he even said good bye to his animals! :~(

I was so “in heaven” that my 2-hour drive back home felt like a 15 minutes. The boys were so awesome and this will be just a trip to remember…

The weekend
We had a lot of fun this past couple of days while we were out of town.
A road trip can sure bring a family together! Even thou it was a “business” trip we had a good time. The kids were amazing in the car and everything went smooth – All was good… I’m a pile of exhaustion; it looks like I got punched in the eye; tired as can be but I would do it all over again.
Saturday while we where driving thru Indy we stopped at the Cruz’s house – had some awesome food and the boys had a bunch of fun! I think we may be going out there for new years!
We had a chance to drive-thru doughnut shop; and the whole time after that Benjamin kept on asking for “Mc Donald’s with chocolate on top”
Today we went to Linda’s for a “baking day” and it was a blast! Besides putting on #s & #s with all the yummies I also had a great time with Ben, Noah & Monica. Linda got Benjamin a gingerbread “train” and he loved it! (Linda – send me the pictures when you have a chance please!)
When we got home he was so excited to show daddy. Their conversation went:
B “Look daddy – the train I did all by myself”
D “Oh Benjamin, it’s awesome – I’m so proud of you buddy.”
B “I’m so proud of you too daddy”

Me, Myself & Lilian
I’m just gonna have to accept the fact I’ll be overweight for now on!
Only 3 days not watching what I ate and I put in over 5#s – believe me or not! =(
My face is more broken out then the teenagers on my street and I’m getting full of “worry lines”.
BLAH!
I guess I need to “LET GO & HAVE FUN!”
It’s just *so* freaking hard 4 me to look in the mirror and feel like crap, ugly & very unattractive.!
T said my “insides” make me pretty - Mike T said it’s all about my “Inner Beauty”
* bullshit! *
That is ugly people talk!
I do believe in Inner Beauty -I’m just angry right now!
Angela has a great thinking and attitude about it – I wish I had just a tinny bit of it!
I have to change my attitude! It’s hard….
I talked to Dan about changing our relationship in 30 days – it’s being a week and so far we haven’t done anything, I’m loosing hope here…

APF & Ben’s Concert + things we are into to
Yesterday we went to see the Aussie Pink Floyd concert @ Taft Theater, it was insanely good! I was very impressed.
I post a few videos on my You Tube account. My camera is a piece of crap but still did a ok job – I wasn’t really concentrated on the camera – I was enjoying the show while recording so they are not good however it can give you a little taste of it! =)
Next year I want to go again!
And this is the Show Benjamin put up for us the other day – I forgot to post this video! Funny guy! He just waited their for applause! =) lol
The boys now love:
B - “Spider’s going up your back – spider’s going down your back…”
N - “Serra, Serra, Serrador…”
Dan is totally out FF – he is so upset! (I’m not! Lol)
And I? I love this Slim-Fast Optima Muffin Bar, I don’t do Slim fast diet or anything – I’m just a muffin maniac! Nutrition is not that great – lots of sugar, but better then a regular muffin! They have like a Blueberry, Banana Nut & Chocolate Chip
So this is the one thing I found to indulge in the mornings! Mmm with a spice pumpkin coffee! =)
Encouraging words on a flurry day
Blahhhh - So we get up this morning and it’s flurrying outside! =P
Anyways… -Our group had an assignment a couple weeks ago, I just now got around to read some notes they had for me… between them I had a few words that were *VERY* meaningful to me.
K said:
“I love being your friend! You have a gentle spirit that invites me in…
… it’s just the patient way you present yourself…
A said:
“you are God’s work of art…
… you are one of the most incredible person I have ever met…
Dr said:
… what a kind woman you are! The youngest of the group but your experiences in life had made you grow fast… your faith is immeasurable”
I’LL keep these encouraging notes around.
Welcome Baby Girl!!!

Trip to Indy
Before I say anything else I want to remind you that November is…
Now, about the trip...
I forgot to post about this but back in October the boys & I drove to Madison - IN to visit Gisele & the girls. The time in the road was very smooth, I never drove there before and this time I was my own co-pilot but we made it fine. The boys had the best time, Haruka is just about 3 mos older then Benji and so is Ain older then Noah. Benji scored a wooden baseball bat from Gisele - (I think he slept with that bat for the first week! lol ) They had a blast and tears when was time to leave… from all of us not just the kids!
We asked Benji to take a picture of Gi & I and this is what we got:
Benji & Haruka - they had so much fun!

Halloween
I don’t really care for this holiday, but this year I had fun!
Past Saturday our neigborhood had the 4th Annual Kids & Pets Halloween Parade, the Lebanon Fire Department lead the kids walking behind the truck from the park in the lake all the way down to the playground down on Lake shore. Getting better every year, this time we had music,snacks for the kids and even a balloon making clown (You were awesome Shelly!)
Today we weren’t gonna go out to trick or treat - we sat in our driveway and handed candy - Benji had a lot of fun, but man when he saw Isabella he just wanted to follow her so we ended up going to the houses in our street only! He *REALLY* losen it up byt the 3rd or 4th house…
My boy got his first crush!!! Awwww
This is the flash light we got to hand to thekids along with Candy: The kids enjoyed the flashlight way more then I expected! =) Cool!!!
Updated 11/04 - Pictures
Noah on his Batman Pjs
Benji & Isabella
And a puppie named Blue we found! Noah also has a PABLO from Backyardigans custome,but I don’t have any pictures in this computer to post (coming soon)
Just like a flower is Noah !!! & A cool one from Benji!
Like a flower that blooms overnight…
Today - Noah is talking: (in order of understandbility)Dada
More (and signs!)
Ball
Mama
He signs”thank you” on his own special way, touching his forhead!
Immitates the train “Tchooo tchooo”
And a lion “Grrrrrr” =)
Benjamin
Yeap! Kids say the darnest things! My 2.5 year old things I’m ”as big as the elephant we saw at the zoo mama, with all the manimals !” -I guess I better start on a diet soon!
He is very active and all over the place, always remember where his toys are, what he and other people own and the cutest latest is that he reads books for us before bed time…
… so today he found a card; a thank you note; somewhere in the house and this is him reading it:
“Its Mikey Mouse and a birthday, you get it… *a pause here* you come you get bfiday cake
PS (yes - he said P S ) There is a Mickey Mouse standing up. PS the end.
HAHAHAHA
I can’t help myself but laugh! - where did he get that????
Our first (and hopefully only) 911 call
So - every mom at some point called poison control… (we done twice) also every mom got a child that dialed 911 as a mistake - or just out of curiosity.
This week we had out first “ooops” 911 call!
This week we had out first “ooops” 911 call!
Noah did it - he talked to the dispatcher when I heard something and got the phone from him….they still sended someone to check up on us - my dear!
The interesting part of it to me is that I looked at the phone, on “redial” to see what he dialed and it was 0591111
Isn’t that interesting?
Isn’t that interesting?
Some funny conversations
Benji: Mom, I want chocolate milk
Me: Hot or Cold?
Benji: Mom… not hot and not cold. I want it warm
….
Benji: Ma, what are you doing?
Me: I’m writing an e-mail.
Benji: An-mail? I see…
….
The shocker: Came home he was watching TV, I asked how he was
“I’m so happy you are home mama, I’m watching Thomas the Blue, Noah is night nights, dad was mad and he said Fuck”
We never cuss in front of him, so it was interesting to see he knew that was something “bad” to do and he was telling on dad. LOL
If that wasn’t enough from now on I can’t watch my shows around him…
I was watching Family Guy and he was playing with trains, kinda far from the great room, did not look like he was paying any attention, then he laughed at something they said at the show, turned to me and said:
“Mom, this is a funny show”
Benjamin knows:
* The ABC’s
* Recognizes numbers x letters
* All shapes and colors

Positivism (not even sure that is actually a word)
A nice big waive of “positivism” hit me this past couple of days, and I like it! (Insert happy funny voice here)
Even the parts that are not working out so great don’t drain me out, so it’s a cool balance.
↓s
I being to the Dr., my colesteral & blood preasure are high and that is a big *NOT GOOD* specially for someone in my age. Need to do something about it. I’m heavier then I ever being – even while pregnant I didn’t weight as much as I do right now – the problem is that it does not bother me enough to do something about it.
Now I’ll have to because it’s not just “looks” but we are talking about my health!
This past Tuesday I tried a new med for migraine but it didn’t do much! I was very desapointed! =(
↑s
Everyone else is getting sick, everyone but me and the boys! (Urru!!) GTJ!!!
The boys are just sweet loving kids, they are amazing and they make my life full of joy! They are the best gift from God! =)

Kids & Video Games
I never thought Benji would be into playing video games so early. He is always asking to play Monica’s so I opened a Nintendo DS we have here to take to Tia Ro when we go to Brasil and let me tell ya… his boy loves it!
He call “My video game with the crayon”
He doesn’t play more then once or twice a week - I think he is too young for it, but when he does, the little time he spends with it, believe me, he is freaking concentrated on it!

People, oh people...
People surprise me – all the time. I can never know that to aspect. Some for the better, some for the worst…
And those you think you can count on you absolutely can’t when you most need them – and when you are out of options and solutions, someone you never thought about reaches out to you and everything works way better then what we imagined when everything was going down the drains. If that makes any sense…

A very wet Zoo
We made to the zoo today with Kristen and Mike, it’s sounded like a perfect day until we leave the membership office and KABOON – it’s pouring rain!
Very wet, we have a membership and could go back at anytime but Benji was so frustrated with the idea of not visiting the elephants, that was all he talked about for 2 days…. we still managed to show Benji the elephants, the discovery center and a couple train rides.
We headed to Mike’s house to dry and I actually took a nice hot shower and Kirsten cooked us dinner. I tried for the first time “Spaghetti squash” I absolutely enjoyed it.
Dan got a ride there, and we all headed back home together…

TV
Of couse we set goals to limit our tv time this fall/winter, so at first we picked just a couple of show. But wait! We can DVR and watch 3x faster in a quiet environment after the kids are in bed! So that became 5x more shows that we expected! LOL So we are watching:
The Office – Awesome as usual. It’s the best!
Law & Order – Not need to comment.
Kid Nation – I really enjoy this show – so does Dan. Benji even watches it with us… don’t understand much but watches it.
Survivor – Just because we used to enjoy – but to be honest it lost it. This one is full of “beautiful & strong” people and it just feels like set up… people just talk about “the way I play the game” … anyways… it’s just getting old!
Grey’s Anatomy – Even Meredith being as annoying as can be I still enjoy this show.
Private Practice – So far ok. I’m giving it a shot, we’ll see.
Carpoolers – I’m LOVING it! A lots of: “man are the best and yes we(man) are animals, we love sex and woman are dumb” kind of jokes but wait – 2 & ½ Man is like that also and we watch it!!!
2 & ½ Man – The comment is just above…
Desperate Housewife – Not important but I like to watch when I have a chance
So here is at least 5 hours!! FIVE!!! Five!!!! Five hours in front of the TV every week! Way more then I would like to but at least Dan & I do it together cuddling in the couch. I enjoy listening to “Singing Bee” while I cook dinner or do dishes if that is on…
Besides that we don’t watch anything else anyways… so I guess it’s all right.

We got a new mattress!!! FREE!
Dan was always complaining that out mattress sucked that it was falling a part blah blah blah…
He always asked me to call the co. because it had a 10 yrs warranty. I never did… so times goes by and he called. They came out to measure our mattress and let me tell ya: When I took the mattress cover/pad out I was choked! Our mattress really was falling a part!!! The guys measured and got back with us a few days later, the result was that we were approved for a replacement.
Not just that but they didn’t make our mattress anymore (It was only 3 yrs old) so they gave us an upgrade. It was originally $600 and we paid $400 for our mattress on sale and we just got this new one AWESOME $1220 worth for FREE and free delivery and everything!!!
How cool was that???

Good taste in early age…
So my two year asked me in the car this morning:
Mommy, can we listen to “the ring of fire” ???
So I browse my ipod for Johnny Cash, play it and he sings in the back of my van:
“Burns, burns, burns the ring of fire…”
“Down, down, down…”
Song is over and then came:
Mommy, can we hear “the ring of fire” again???? Pleeeeeeeeeease?”
Dear – we drove downtown Cincinnati –home (35 mins) listening to the ring of fire, over and over again….

As you can see our September has being busy – no time to post – not time to spare!
We are *on going* 24/7 and there’s a lot more coming our way! But we are pretty happy!
Dan just came back from Florida and back to work after a 6 days vacation; he went down with his BFF (LOL) from high-school and apparently they had a BLAST! They got to see Dolphins, Manatees and Wales (?); do a bunch of guy stuff and more then anything – RELAX!
We missed dad dearly! The boys REALLY had a hard time – it scares me because I don’t think Dan will be able to stay in Brazil as long as we will and the boys are just gonna miss him A LOT! –All thou I believe it’s much hard for those you are left behind…!
We spent lots of time with Dani, Grace and Isaac – they had a few sleepovers and that was fun (except the fact Dani and I had a total of 5 hours sleep in like 3 days)
We totally treated ourselves with nice breakfasts (Danish, donuts and chocolate crescents) – Bob Evans a couple of times and ice coffees most mornings while the guys were gone; after all we had a “vacation” too. Dan got us quite a few gifts.
Kristen came by Thursday night and she cooked a AWESOME stir-fry for us! Yuuuumie K! We had the best time – just talking shit and drinking some wine – some of the neighbors joined us and it became a private party pretty quickly!
We also got to spend some time with Cindy and that was great! The kids had the best time at her place – she treats them like kids and they LOVE IT so us moms had a break too and C is just funny and good to be around, I always learn a lots from her!
The Bengals game on Monday was pretty awesome! They won.
Noah has changed a lots – it’s like he went from the baby stage to a 1 year old. He is so independent and busy. He is drinking Goat and Cow’s milk out of a sip cup and *finally* enjoying solid food!
Every morning when Dan leaves for work Noah stay at the door sobbing, he doesn’t want me or anything else…. He just wants his daddy! I can wait until we can do some serious life changing decisions. Can’t imagine how this breaks Dan’s heart every morning =(
Benji is in love with Pancakes, he calls them “Birthday Cake” and is asking me all day long to watch “Thomas & friends” -I find this the most boring cartoon EVER!
Tati’s mom leaving in a couple days, we saw Daniela’s parents & family that just got here and I just can’t wait to see mine!!!!

I PASSED!!!!! =)))))))))
I passed my immigration test!!!10 oral questions, something to read, something to write andOh yeah! Oh yeah! I did it! I did it!A few more weeks and I’ll be an American!!!!______* ______BTW – (totally different subject) – I forgot to mention a few weeks ago we had a camp out on Tati’s backyard??? Benji loved playing in the fire, roasting marshmallows and hot dogs! Pictures will come – eventuallyDary will have surgery next week – Cindy had hers today and sounds like she is hanging in there!
A funny one…
Benji does not like to see my breast – not even for a second! If while feeding, Noah stops to look around and my breast is uncovered Benji used to freak out and try to cover up by bringing my shirt down.
This week Benji looked at me while I was nursing and said:
- Mama, Can you putt away your ‘bottle of milk’ ???
2 totally different posts
1. Wild Oats Sold! =))) That is good news! I think we'll get more variety and better prices with Whole Foods!
2.
I was doing my laundry when....
…I heard Noah crying in the living room, so I walked over there:
Benji: Mooooooooom, Noah is crying!
Me: Why?
B: Because I hit him in the head!!! (He didn’t even give me time to say and continued…)
B: With this bridge mommy, I used this bridge…(a plastic toy)
M: Why Benji? Why did you do these? (while helping Noah)
B: He was blanking (breaking) my tracks, I’m playing trains and I hit him! (No signs of feelieng guilty here - at all!)
M: Benji – that was not nice, Noah is a baby he wants to play with you blah blah blah… + blah blah blah…
B: Sorry Noah! Then he holds my face and say: Mommy, I said sorry!!!
M: Thanks Benji – what about a big hug?
Benji hugged Noah, Noah smiled, tears running down his face
B: I think he needs that “Nemo” from the freezer mommy (a reusable fish shaped like ice pack we have)

Naked w/ boots, blue IC & my colegas! lol
Last Saturday night Dan, me & the kids went to KI. Who would think we would of have such a nice time? Very few people; a much cooler weather, we had a good time & Dang!!! That blue ice cream YUMMM…
Since then I’m craving that IC…
These week we enjoyed Dad & Grandpa all day long, then this afternoon while they hanged out with Mike P. we went to KI for an hour and so. After we headed to Simone’s house for a nice nice time! We had a “dinner” lunchoun, all the kids had the best time! Noah didn’t even care where I was, he wanted to play play play – there was so much toys there so both of my kids had a blast! =) Then I got home and
“Ahhhhh was at KI and didn’t get the Blue IC!”
My dear, how could I have done that???? Anyways…
My “Colegas” lol -It was a nice time today uh? We GOT to do it again! I loved our time scrapbooking last week but today was *very* good! =)
I have a ton of pictures to post, if I ever find the time – You’ll see them here…
Funny one:
- Benji really enjoys the song “Boots” from Laurie Berkner – and I just got him a pair of “frog” boots for $3.50!!!
We are also potty training – and for that to go easier on us I’ll take his diaper off during the day when it’s just him and I. So theirs is Benji – running in circles – stomping around as the song says – naked wearing his frog boots! =)
*Tomorrow we’ll take Benji to the Bengals game – since it’s a pre season and the weather is nice! I think he is going to love it! =)
_______________
Please pray…
My dad has 5 spots (cancer) on his longs - He’ll start chemo again here soon. =(

Happy Birthday Noah!
A year ago…
…after about 7 hours laboring, 9 cm dilated and an emergency C-section Baby Noah was born! Feels like it was yesterday… and now just a year later he is walking, has 7 teeth, trying to communicate and keeping us busy!
We went to CCM for a fun afternoon – Noah LOVED the slide! Going up the steps and down the slide all by himself… cute! (Blah, I forgot my camera!) We had Jessica since Kip had surgery and Benji enjoyed her company!
It’s awesome to see Grandpa Elan playing with the kids! They were all running around, when Grace and Isaac came by all you could hear was kids running, lots of laughing and later the re-cups! (From laughing so hard!)
Daniela made Noah a cake and we sang happy birthday to him at Tati’s. She got him the cutest soft sole shoes (Thanks Dani – I loved them!)
Also - Happy Birthday to Mike P (40 - lol - not really , only 32) & Katie(26).

Elan is coming & I want to run away from myself…
I’m getting on my own nerves! I’m getting annoyed with myself!
“If you want be a grumpy that s ok, but could you be a grumpy kind of farther away?? – it’s not that I don’t love you cause you know I do! Sometimes I’m grumpy too!”
Get out of here grumpness!!! Yeaks! I just want to run away from myself this week!!
Bare with e people – it HAS to get better eventually! =/
I think the whole breast thing has something to do with it – I have never felt so much pain in my entire life!!!
It’ll be fun to have Elan here this week – We want to enjoy him as much as we can because after he moves only God knows how long it’ll be until we can see him again! =(
We’ll be so far away from him… Benji keeps on asking “When is Grandpa here?”
- Just a few more hours sweetie!… =)

Finally here!!!! Tonite & Tomorrow will be busy… some sad news…
Our season tickets came in the mail today!!! (Dan has being checking the mail box for 9 days now…)
They are so good looking - all about old times! =)
Now heading to the door to meet the Gausmann at KI for a fun family night! Sure there’ll be lots to blog tomorrow! =)
In another note: Tomorrow will be the funeral for GrandMae, at age 95 she passed away last Friday =(
RIP Greatgradma!! You will be missed! Wise woman - so much wisdom she had to pass on…

High up in the sky
Benji: Mamma – I want candy! Me: Candy??? We don’t have any baby, sorry! B: Yes we do! M: We do?! Where? B pointing his fingers to the ceiling: Is up there – high up in the sky! M: I don’t see any. Where? Show me! B asked to be held and showed me the top of the fridge: Up there mama, up in the sky on the refigedor mama!BLAH!!!!! Sure enough there was candy there! =oP
Be Or Not To Be…
…Upset? -That is the question.
As I heard a few of my husband’s friends talking about me (Yeap! direct to me – right at my face!) Talking about how I look!!!!
They were saying how I looked when Dan and I got married. They were nice, they were very nice talking about how I’m beautiful and how I’m still “sexy” even thou overweight and how they like hiding on me. (Even thou I don’t feel sexy, I mean to other people - I don’t even try to be sexy for other man - my husband does make me feel VERY sexy!)
But let’s me honest! How can a man say that right at a woman’s face “Hey sweetie – I love you, you sexy and all but you got to loose some weight” ???
I know it’s true – I’m over weight but that did hurt my feelings!
I guess the answer is YES! TO BE UPSET! Tati is the Queen of Maggots - I’m just a pricess…
Perry got extra tickets for a baseball game this week and invited Dan to go with him – so I went to Tati’s for the kids to play and so I wouldn’t be “alone’ for so long…
The kids had a blast! Noah was BROWN *literally* from walking and crawling in the dirt. And we were both cleaning out our Vans since we were outside and that’s when we found MAGGOTS on Tati’s car! Right there in her cup holder! EEEEWWWWW GROSS!

Jason Bourne is back
A new “Bourne” movie is coming out so Dan & I decided to watch the first two; The Bourne Identity and The Bourne Supremacy. Dan had seeing it before but it was my first time and I really enjoyed it!
Now I can’t wait to watch The Bourne Ultimatum. * 08.03 – I’ll be there! =)
MBC Group - moms meeting
We meet at KI without kids – I was my first time at the “adult” side of the park this year! As I walked in I went straight to the Nickelodeon side f it - LOL
The shops were all 60-75 and 90% off. I had a nice Starbucks to pump it up a little energy to the night and we had all kinds of fun!!!
Firehawk had a 45 minutes line =(
I have NO voice…
Probably Dani, Tati and some other people lost their hearing too! =oP
Where did this come from? LOL
…that Benji learned this from TV: “Mama, Mickey Mouse drives a Minnie Van”
We haven’t watched much TV this summer and I didn’t hear this one anywhere - from where else could be? Does he know what he is saying????
Also, if you hear him saying “knock knock” and you ask “How’s there”? He answers:
”Orange” - or other times- “Banana who?”
This one was from daddy - Benji lol but he does not quite understanding the joke yet!

Hells Kitchen is Back!
…and I wasn’t expecting much after the first episode; the contestants seem so inexperienced - very desapointing - but then last night’s was really good!
Can’t wait until next Monday! - I shouldn’t have watched the “next week on Hells Kitchen”
- Now I’m anxious! =)

How can you not smile?????
The idea of keeping a tooth brush and Pj’s for Isaac at our house was good, since he is here at least once a week - today him and Benji wanted a sleep over even after they played all afternoon - later in the day while we were getting ready to take a bath Isaac says:
Lilly (Yes - Lilly - NO ONE except Shannon and Grace call me Lilly and I have NO idea where Grace got the Lilly from - anyway Isaac says Lilly now too)
Lilly - remember asterday I took a bath here in your slippery bath? blah blah blah a few minutes later on our “deep conversation”
Isaac - …And every night you call me Sweetie and my mom calls me Son - LOL
We get dressed and Dan is tucking them in and here comes the:
Issac - Well Lilly - I need socks! LOL LOL LOL (I’m trying hard not to laugh and get them hiper ya know… they both get socks)
Dan prays with them before telling them a story and it goes like:
Dan- … and thank you Jesus for M, D, B, N, I, G, K, and D
Isaac - ”those are my parents”
Dan is almost finish and he says:
“And thank for Sunny and Midnight too ok?”
Dan - Of course!
They are almost sleep and it comes:
Benji “Mama - I fatet” (Farted)
OnMyHead:
“Sometimes I feel I’m a single mother of 3″
*I being feeling a lots like that lately!! =]
Lilly (Yes - Lilly - NO ONE except Shannon and Grace call me Lilly and I have NO idea where Grace got the Lilly from - anyway Isaac says Lilly now too)

I’m very sad *tears*
Isaac spent the night over last night again - I think it’s like his 3rd or 4th time and he and Benji do it very well. But defenetely that’s NOT why I’m sad…
They are sleeping upstairs while I sit here in this quiet room and all I can here is the storm (NICE!) outside and all I can think it’ how much I’ll miss this place…
Yeap! Our house is going on the market and I’m very upset.
I love this neighborhood - I love our neighboors and the friends we made here! Many in just these 3 years became like family to us! I love our kitchen, our deck, Everything about this place! Benji runs around - he knows all the kid’s houses, where is Logan, Brailon, Isabella, Nathan, Calvin, Audry…
Ahh this is going to be so hard for me! -For all of us! I really think it’ll be VERY hard to find such a nice street like the one we are now… but if this is what will take for me to be home with the boys - we’ll do!
=] My yellow smile

Past couple of weeks
* My lap top is back from Best Buy and it’s working incredibely good
* Jessie turned 3 - we had a lovely time time at her party, with cookie cake and water baloons
* We went to Boomerang Bay for the first time with friends. Benji really enjoyed except that water was REALLY cold - Our first time at the Nickelodeon a couple days later wasn’t so pleasent - Benji was happy to see all his favorites cartoon but he was not into riding on anything… so Daddy got a pass for father’s day and with him Benji was glad to ride lots of diferent things - trains are still his favorites!
* We went to West Lafayette - took “big” Jessica back home - she was here for like 10 days enjoying her summer break
* Priscilla got me hocked up to this awesome strawberry shortcake - I have made it twice this past week hmmm mmm mmm
* I started working at All State Insurance and I already quite! I worked 2 weeks -I loved working but work 6-10pm after a day with the boys + Jessica is not worth just to be able to afford a “large” life - is it large if you need to work that much? Family time it’s much more important to me and I’m happy Dan thinks so too.
* I must have some shit in my head because it’s 11:30 pm and I just drank 2 huge cups of mocha iced coffee AND whipping cream mmmm mmmm
* We attended to Hermes birthday party and man - let’s talk about have fun - that was cool! We almost didn’t make because it was the same day of our neighborhood party (that was fun as well) but really - KAtia and Hermes are great people - I hope they stay around Cincy =)

Blessed was the pig!
I need a little money the other day & didn’t have any extra available - I got my ”laundry room piggy bank” I have on top of the washer (for all the change I find in pockets while doing laundry) and took it to Kroger
Guess how much????
$86,37 =)

$86,37 =)
(Unusual) Too much time in my hands…
And I had so much to do and didn’t know where to start…
So this morning - exceptionaly I turned the TV and I saw Dawson’s Creek last episode <
- Joey chose Pacey over Dawson… It made me wonder if Kevin Arnold and Winnie Cooper ever got together - hold on - I’m gonna find out
* 3 minutes later *
“Kevin quit his job working in Jack Arnold’s furniture store and struck out on his own. Sadly, for some viewers, he and Winnie Cooper did not wind up together.”

Kings Island Gold Pass - More than a Nice Surprise…
Salty Dawgs – Dixie Chicks – J’s Squad - called it whatever you want to!!! - It’s a fun group of women who love each other and have each other as sisters and it’s awesome to be part of it! -We rock!
Puppy, Xuxa, Tati and Dary pitched in and got me a KI Gold pass – Can you believe it?
And what makes me so happy it’s not the fact I have one – it’s not the fact they did got me a “gift” and spent the money (I do appreciate it thou)
We could not afford one this year and the he coolest thing for me it’s to think that they all have passes and they did it because they wished I could be there with them!
Now how cool is that?? I guess they do like me! =) LOL
I love you girls! -God bless you all!

With the unfortunate tragities that happened this past weekend it really makes us look into ourselves as a scene to educate so that this doesnt happen again. Even if you are the straightest of straight edge you can always find drugs…plain and simple they arnt goin away. It all is up to the person on how YOU handle YOURSELF. In no way shape or form should ekoostik or Legend Valley be blamed for these mishaps. We need to pass the word:
Be smart, Be Safe, Be Alive.
It shouldnt take death for us to figure out our tolerences. If you took something and you dont feel right, Go with your Gut! If you feel as though something is wrong…go to the medical tent and get help. You will not be turned away and they will not give you crap about being on drugs…they just want to help. We need to pass the word along so that things like this never happenen again. A time for fun shouldnt be turned into a time for mourning! Think, Be smart. Pass the word

Many blessings to count!
Dad went to the hospital a couple of weeks ago to prep to his surgery – supposed his colon cancer had spread to the liver and lungs! Anyways – after 3 positive tests his 4th one show nothing but “calcium accumulation” - Lets talk about a miracle?
And mom lost one for her jobs (we knew it wasn’t a permanent thing) and she got it back just a few days later – the same day dad went into the hospital.
Not a thousand Glories will be enough to thank our Lord! =)

Double dip
We got a sitter this past Friday to go out with Kip & Daniela on a double date kind of thing – Man!!! I haven’t had this much fun in a while. We did dinner, C-Hop & a quick stop at UDF for a late night ice treat. Great time; no kids, talking shit, wasting time… I laugh my crack off. (I liked this sitter except for some reason I can’t have her every weekend and don’t hang out with the kids – it breaks my heart! = Even thou I’m with them everyday!)
Some other news:
Noah has 4 teeth, improving his crawling, standing and dancing (Can’t hear music and starts moving around – can’t wait to see him at hooka). Very active guy has being good about sleeping in his crib and I’m loving it!
Benji is soooo into sports and he is very good in baseball and basketball. Playing outside 95% of the day, riding his tricycle, lots of fun with neighborhood kids.
In another note: I can tell we’ll get sick of grilling out before summer is here. We did it Saturday, Sunday & Monday. I ate so much this weekend I don’t even want to go weigh-in this week! =(

When you hold your farts “in” they travel up your spine, into your brain and that is where shitty ideas come from!!!

Happy as a mom - sad as a daughter
I got hit by my first “Mommy, I love you” before bed time just a couple of nights ago… what an awesome treat for a mom!
In the other hand – as a daughter I just got hit by the news my dad has more cancer – liver this time – it’s the same as the colon what makes it bad (metastases) and he is having surgery as early as next week.
I want to go see him but I don’t want to leave Dan alone (we don’t have $ anyways) but I feel so guilt that he won’t be able to be with the kids!
Right now I feel very desinencuraged. Extra prayers, positive energy or whatever is that you do to my daddy and family =(
Thanks!
Later that day I wrote:
I wish my family & a few of my friends were closer too…
I’m very thankful for the neighbors we have in our community! There’s like 5 families that are just amazing people and good friends!
We hanged out last Saturday night, grilled out some dinner, had a fire, roasted marshmallows, smoked cigar and make some music, played “But Tarts” (I didn’t – I crashed before it but I heard it was fun!), the kids had a good time and it’s just a nice nice evening/night.

Some more updates
Our carpet was tan color – now is yellow – Noah has now pooped twice between diaper changes and it won’t come out. Sure – it’s my fault and you think I would know better after 2 kids
We went to the zoo Friday – it was the perfect day – awesome time. Me and the three kids = I’m sore! Between wearing a kid and pushing another two on the double stroller I think I would love to see a Dr. Bill! =)
Noah stands by himself for like 5 seconds – I would say another month he’ll be walking. (Oh dear, my baby!) Yesterday I left him downstairs and run up to get something and when I looked back he was upstairs – if I haven’t seeing it I wouldn’t believe it – he never done 1 step before (that I seeing it) and there it goes we got him half way up the steps! He also has one top tooth sticking out – it looks so funny!
My friend Ben and his band Rumpke Mountain Boys are gonna be playing at Hookahville this year and we are considering on making up there – I think Nickie, /Shawn and Noah are going and it’s “sort of” kids friendly. So – we’ll see; tickets are not so bad $65 bucks but after gas, hotel and food it can get very expensive!
I dreamed of funeral cars the past two nights – now how crippy is that??
Benji got his first big deal bloody booboo – His toe got sliced out somehow outside and it was bleeding for a little while.

Past couple of weeks
It’s being a while since I had time to write – I probably won’t remember half of the things that happened this past couple of week, but at least the most important ones will be recorded!
* We had a visit to the zoo with the bible study group and kids to do a egg hunt but after walking all around Benji and Jessica felt asleep and never got to do the egg hunt!
* Lilly, Derek and the kids came for Easter, we already had plans for Sunday so Samantha stayed with the kids on Saturday so Dan & I + Lilly & Derek could hang out Saturday night and we had a very nice time. * Easter Sunday was fun. There was an awesome service at Lifeland. Dan cooked this awesome meal; he stuffed pork two different ways; one with Fresh Mozzarella, Basil and Roma Tomatoes (OMG!!!) and the other with a Spinach Paste he made up, Cheese and some other seasonings… We also had some Italian Sausage, and some sort of beef on the grill (That tasted very much like a Brazilian cut), all that with Vinagrette and rice “the perfect combination”. For he grand finale we had some Maracuja Mousse spread on this delicious white cake with coconut! (Dear, I gained 5 #s just thinking about it!) * Not sure if I already said that but Noah is cruising around very well and fast too. Standing up by himself, clapping, dances on sound of music
* Benji is finally done with pacifiers – he now can se them and still be ok. Now that is over it doesn’t feel like it was that hard. Very much into sports, outside (and frustrated with the weather), books and trains. Just got another couple molars (ouch!) and talking like a parrot! I’m introducing more and more words in Portuguese daily. Sleeping good 10 hours *alone* in his bed! Using the potty occasionally.
* I finished watching the “Lord of the Rings” trilogy and surprisingly I enjoyed it! Now I started reading “Finding God in the Lord of the Rings” by Kurt Bruner & Jim Ware Other books to finish are:
Free at last by Larry Huch
Unconditional Parenting by Alfie Kohn
Bringing up boys by James Dobson
My brother’s keepers by McCormick
Hold onto your kids by Gordon & Mate M.D
* My dad, Claudia and Tia Sandra meet with my 2 uncles and grandfather for the first time and it sounds like they got along very well – It made very happy; this was something I always wanted to happen and even thou I was sad for not being there I was really please to hear how well it went. * We worked on *some* of our landscaping – there’s still lots to be done around the house and the deck but the front it’s looking pretty sharp! I’m very pleased. Tim and Dan worked on past Tuesday and Tim worked alone for another 4 days…
* We went to the Y at the pool with some Brazilians, Katie meet us there w/ Sage and the twins. Benji is just in love with the pool and it’s pretty neat to watch! Katie looks so good – she is due anytime and her belly it’s just awesome! We are excited to see that baby’s face!
* Talking about babies – Isabella is here!! She came on 04/04 - Congratis guys!
* Melissa B. is pregnant!!!
* I drove both boys and me to Perdue and back last Saturday, it took me about 7 hours total (Man – I was tired) for a Brazilian service – that by His grace was pouring His good promises! (Dan 3)

Lots of fun time and good food
Samantha came by to watch the kids Friday morning while I went to Shelly’s for the Bible Study. We had a very nice as usual
Benji only wants to be “tataouside” all the time so Saturday Dan had Bill & Jeff helping to get the steps done on our deck so we don’t have to go all the way around the house LOL
It looks great and apparently was more complicated them everyone expected. We left for a couple of hours to the “annual” Brazilian children’s Easter Egg Hunt at GrandMae’s house.
Benji enjoyed his time, and all the candy! Noah ate grass and mud. =)
Later that night the Kilgalons came by and Amy – we grilled out, had some wine and smoked some cigars while the kids played in the basement/outside – Very nice time…
Sunday flew by – we never noticed and the only thing really I accomplished was a little shopping at Michaels, Target and some laundry!
We went to Frank & Dari’s house by Papa’s request and hanged out there way later then we should – lol – it was so good! The kids played wel together and like Dari said: “It felt a little like home”
They gave Benji this awesome train table with a lot of tracks and trains - he played on it al day!
- Thanks so much Dari!
Papa stayed at home today and that is always the best so the boys were all over him, we had Tim & Katie over for dinner, we had sushi, sashimi and the best best best fruit for desert -Yummie!! =)

I find it funny!!!
You may not but I do.
I won’t probably be able to describe it in a funny way anyways but I still crack up when I think about it!
I had a teacher many years ago that had a “fetish” (is that right?) with woman feet, I remember a long long time ago one day I was wearing sandals and he said “One day I’m gonna kiss your feet”. Also I remember him always with pictures of man kissing woman’s feet – nothing like pornographic but also not “polite” pictures…
Anyways – it’s being like 10 years or more since I saw him and we just get to talk again thru sites like myspace/orkut kind of thing.
So after he sent a couple e-mails one of them came with 2 pictures attached with man kissing woman’s feet and some sort of coments about mine.
One night I was sleeping and Dan woke me up – we talked about it and everything was fine, long story short – Dan asked “May I contact him?” And I said “sure!”
And this was basically Dan’s hilarious e-mails to the guy:
“I don’t appreciate that you send this pictures to my wife. It’s all good with me that you like feet – but you probably won’t like mine when I stick them up in your ASS”
lol – I loved it! It was so creative! lol lol lol!

Eventually the Sun will have to Shine
We went up to Findlay Market Sunday (www.findlaymarket.org) - I have forgotten how good that place is!!! We got a bunch of produce for very little money like:
3 Avocados for $1
2 boxes of Raspberries for $1
Pineapple $1/each
Ground Turkey $1.86/lb (very lean too)
A whole box of strawberries for like $3!!!
The Oranges and Pears were also pretty good price and even the items that were the same price as the grocery like Bananas, Zucchinis and some other stuff looked much better then the organic produce at Kroger!
That makes me anxious for the Lebanon Farmer’s Market to open!
For dinner Dan cooked a delicious fresh Tilapia on a wine sauce, veggies, and rice. We enjoyed that awesome meal with some good wine (forget about dieting at this point!) and some awesome strawberries for desert!
All we needed to end the perfect night was to smoke a cigar and get the kids to bed asap! Lol
And then…
We started the crazy week
– Benji barfing at the Child Watch at the Y - we had NO extra clothes so we weared Noah’s
– Because of that I never really focused on our P.oBox meeting
– I burned a big batch of beans I was cooking…
– And bla bla bla!
Let’s just concentrate that this week WILL BE GOOD! =)

Our day
Since Dan and Kip were gone for the weekend we tried spending the night at Daniela’s house yesterday, which resulted on a drive back home 1am.
They have too many cool toys and Benji just couldn’t slow down. He was excited as the kids on Mary Poppins =) Cute anyways!
I was feeling pretty crappy this morning but then Mike came over to help in the basement and finally we got it done! Or I should say Mike pretty much did everything because the kids were just all very needy.
I cleaned up the rest of it a little while ago. And it’s pretty much ready. We are now just waiting on the gates – we should get them on Monday!
-Thanks Mike for all your help! You got so much done - it would of taken me at least a couple of days to do all that!
It looks great – it feels great! Benji only wants to play downstairs… and me too! Now I want to set up a little sewing table and my “crap” table.
Benji felt down the stairs and that was pretty scary! (the basement one! no carpert!)
Elan had some sort of surgery on his month and apparently he is not doing that good – keep him in your prayers!
Dan made home not that late – we all had a nice dinner – the kids went to bed earlier (they were bit from the night before) and we started watching Lord of the Rings.
Dan and I want to watch all 3 of them again, so we started one today and now I’m gonna go back and watch some more!

They are growing too fast right under my eyes….
Noah can:
*Clap his hands
*Smack (like send kisses – I’m not sure if this makes sense)
*Pay the drum
*Move all around the place with a sort of crawling/walking holding on furniture
——————— * —————————
Benji does better:
* Today was day 5 without a pacifier! He was biting it the other day and it broken – so we won’t use it anymore, I hided all the other ones and only give him the broken one when he asks and he’ll say: Mommy it’s broken” or “Mommy quebow” (Portuguese for broken) and give it right back.
Will this be the end of the “Beebee”??? – If so it would be great!
* He pooped in the potty!!!
Flushed, said “bye-bye” to the poop, washed his hands and Daddy gave him an H Kiss to celebrate! =)
I can’t imagine how much more I can buy at the grocery with diaper money!
*Speaking like a parrot! Ohhh coisinha tagarela!
Lots of words in Portuguese – I’m so pleased
Lots and lots of: “Yeaah! Yeaahh”
And my favorite:
“Noah funny, Daddy funny, Mama funny!!!”
Then he’ll look at something else and says: “NOT Funniie”
*Clap his hands
*Smack (like send kisses – I’m not sure if this makes sense)
*Pay the drum

Lots of words in Portuguese – I’m so pleased
Lots and lots of: “Yeaah! Yeaahh”
And my favorite:
“Noah funny, Daddy funny, Mama funny!!!”
Then he’ll look at something else and says: “NOT Funniie”
Little update
We made to the Cobblestone church yesterday. I really enjoyed it. It feels a lot like what I was looking for except that I like opening the bible for reading (however it may happen another days and or that’s why we have small groups) We’ll see next Sunday if Dan is gonna go again!
Dan and I got a “shot” of O2 Sunday (www.o2fresh.com), at first I didn’t think much about it but Monday I realized we would NOT have had accomplished as much as we did Sunday otherwise. I just want one of those machines for me – here at the house. For ANY time – it would be great uh?
Daddy stayed at home today and that was a treat! =)
It’s amazing how much the boys love spending time with him –They are all about Dad
Noah will literally “throw” himself to daddy anytime he is around!
We had lunch with Mike and Kristin and Kristin gave Ben a HUGE box of children books. There were over 50 of them! They were pretty cool and in great shape too. There were Dinosaurs, Dr. Seuss, Blue’s Clues, Fishes, Elmo, a very cool Adventure Bible and lots more! Thanks SO SO much Kristin! We are so happy you thought about us! =)
Benji loooves books and I’m sure they will be well used!

I’m a looser!!!!
I finally got a couple of minutes to sit here, ready may e-mail and just maybe finish this post. All 4 kids are asleep, I got laundry running and done the dishes! So I’ll indulge myself with some coffee…
And I wasn’t going to say anything – I’m not sure why – maybe just because I was a little afraid of not working?!
Anyways, I joined Weight Watchers last week. I was only hungry the first day – after that it was pretty good. I can eat a lots of points because I’m breastfeeding.
I ate pretty much everything just watching the portion not to excide my points and guess what???
Yesterday I have my first weight in and
I LOST 6.4 POUNDS!!!!!!
I don’t feel any change on myself, not on my clothing either… but the scale says so =)
And it encouraged me because it’s something easy that I can do and don’t need to give up any of the things I like!
Yeap – maybe I won’t eat a whole a of the chocolate, but I still can taste it (And this is the hardest part for me). Also I know from now on the weight loss will be way slower then that. We expect me to loose 1# a week. But since I loose it, don’t get it back and don’t stop my milk production I’m pretty happy!! Don’t matter how long it takes! =)
We meet at Shelly’s house yesterday for “P. o Box” lol (Girls - How do you guys like that??) And it was pretty good for the first time. I think we’ll see lots of good works from God with these meetings!

You would…
Today is the one-day I just didn’t do anything. I just sat all day and play with the children – I’m writing this post – I took time to get on with everyone else – called my friends, read their blogs, sent out late thank you notes and replied e-mails from weeks ago.
I found out Vinicius have a blog! How coo is that? Also another 2 friends of friends that I have met before and got back in touch with! And that was pretty cool.
I also need to start replying to my comments – right? I’ll get there guys.. I’ll! Just e-mail works much better for me but from now on I’ll answer comments right on the page.
I have soooooooooo much to blog about the trip but I need all kinds of time to do that, so I’ll sometime during the week - for a sumary: It was AWESOME!
Frances drove me nuts this past weekend – I know now that we cannot count on Dan’s family – however again I’m thankful for my friends!!!
I said something to her and she (full of guilty) understood something else. It’ll take a long time for me to want to see her again – I’m praying a lot about it – I can’t be so mad at her because I can’t express myself very good in English (and she MUST have hearing problems + English as well) but I’m just so PO!
Sorry – but she is a little off here (and most of the other times too)
God is good - I’m over it but she is crazy! If you know her you would agree with me!
In the other hand - I have had met Katia a while ago and we always talk in events – who would thing we would turn out to be good friends but I being enjoying very much the time I spent with her – sh cheers me up a lots! I need that
Despite all that I miss Tati a lots – her calls every morning – I complain about it when she is around – but I got to tell ya; we are like sisters.

Party of Five
I’m reading about nursing multiples and being getting a chance to put onto practice while Braylon is with me. I could not picture myself as a mother of 5. Two days a week is not that hard but never stop 24/7, 7 days a week – I wonder how other woman do that.
In the mist of all this I’m trying not to ignore Benji’s new words that are popping out every day; “See Mommy? See???”
![]()
Everything he touches, everything he plays with or likes he’ll ask us : “See, that?” And you better answer or he won’t stop saying.
