Well, I am almost pain free from my surgery! I was so nervous and it was nothing! Everything went well. I haven't been able to do much still, but I am back at work and doing great! I also have lost 4 lbs since I had my surgery. I hope to lose more!
Kids are doing great. Nadia is growing and is a little terror! lol She is such a handful and has so much energy!!! Gabe and Ange are doing well in school. I believe report cards should be going out pretty soon.
Other than that, not much else to report!

Update
Wow its been forever!! Over 2 months!!
Ok, where to begin......
Well, Nadia had a doctor's appointment on Wednesday. For a checkup. She now weighs 20.2lbs and is 29 inches long. She eats just about ANYTHING!!! She is not much of a picky eater. Except meat. She will eat it, but doesn,t care for it. Oh and she is so crazy!!! And so funny!!! She makes us laugh so much! I can't believe she is 14 months! My baby is growing up.
Angie, well, she is Angie. Same ole self! lol she is such a diva and such a daddy's girl. And man she has an attitude!!! lol And she is only 8! I'm in so much trouble when she is a teenager! Shes loving school. She was Citizen of the Month for September for her class. Other than math, she is doing well in school.
Gabe, is in the GATE program at school and is staying pretty busy with homework! I think its good though cuz its challenging for him and in the past it was always too easy. We will see how he does grades wise. Hopefully its not too too hard for him. It doesnt seem like it yet.
I took the kids to have their pics taken at picture people last month. Here they are. They all had fun doing it!

Slacking!
Yup, I have been! lol.. So Nadia turned 1 last Tuesday! I can't believe its been a year!!! I'll have to upload photos soon. I have so many I need to!! lol... The joys of working and being a mom! No time to do anything!!!
July 9, 2009
Busy busy busy!!!
Story of my life! lol... Wow, I dont even know how long its been since I last posted. What? Almost 2 months? Crazy!!! I have to try and remember everything that has happened since then!!!
Lets start with Nadia. She will be 1 in 12 days!!! I can't believe how fast this year has gone! She is now walking everywhere! And she is such a handful!!! She has tooth #5 coming out now. Its on the top between the 2 already there. She also likes to dance! Her favorite song to dance to is the Ghostbusters theme!!! She is too funny!! On Monday I took her to WIC and they weighed her and she now weighs 18lbs 4oz. Her height I'm not to sure of. They said she was 26 inches, but at her 6 months checkup she was 25. I'm pretty sure she grew more than 1 inch. I guess we will see at her 1 year checkup.

Here she is dancing to the Ghostbusters theme!!
On to Angie. She passed to the 3rd grade and had Outstanding Attendance for 2008-2009 school year. She only missed 1 day all school year! She was so proud! And I was so proud of her! Other than that, not much else going on with her.
Angie with her certificate:
Last but not least, Gabe. Well, he's doing pretty good. Enjoying the summer! He's going to be in the 5th grade GATE program next school year. I hope its challenging for him! He needs it! Oh, he got the Outstanding Attendance award too! Only missed 2 days! Go Kids!!!
Gabe with his award:
As for me and David, things are going really well. I am working mostly and David is taking care of the kiddos.
Well, thats about it for now. Hope I can post again soon and more often now that I have my own laptop!!!
May 19, 2009
It's been awhile!
Oh wow! Where to begin!! Lol… It has been awhile since the last time I posted!
Ok, lets start with the kiddos from oldest down to the youngest!
Nadia – well, she is a HANDFUL!!! Lol… She is crawling EVERYWHERE and climbing onto EVERYTHING!!! She pulls herself up onto anything and everything she can. She is getting braver and braver everyday! She is trying to let go but not quite. And no steps yet!! Also, the only baby food she is currently eating is the cereal and fruit and her little snacks. Everything else she eats is “big people” food. Lol… She will be 10 months on Thursday, May 21st!!! 2 months til the big “1”!!!! My baby is growing up so fast!!!!
Angie – she is such a diva! Lol… It’s hard for me to go shopping for her unless she is with me. She is very picky about what she wants and what she will wear! She is doing really well in school and is ready for the summer! She and I planted a small sunflower plant a couple of weeks ago and she is super excited to see it sprouting! She will probably have more of a green thumb then me! Lol…
Gabe – well, he was accepted into the Gifted and Talented Education (GATE) Program at school! He got the letter on the 14th and I signed it and had him take it back to school. I am super happy for him! He needs to be challenged and I am hoping the GATE program will do it!
As for David, he is doing well. His birthday is less than a week away. For his birthday, we are going to a Dodger-Angels baseball game! We are so looking forward to it! Also, our 10 year anniversary is the 28th! Wow, 10 years!!!
As for me, all is well on my end, just staying super busy with work and the kids. Trying to keep them entertained and not bored! Lol… Well, that’s about it for us. Hope you all are doing well!!!

So much to update on! (Weeks 9 & 10)
Ok, so I have really been slacking!! I have been so busy I haven't had a chance to really read and comment on my fellow sassies blogs!! I am so sorry!! I love you girlies!! And these last couple of weeks have been crazy, so here are weeks 9 & 10 of the weekly blog challenge!
Ok, so, from youngest to oldest, here we go.....
Nadia is growing up so fast! She still has just the 2 teeth and she loves being on the floor! She cries when shes in her walker cuz she wants to crawl!! And she gets into everything!!! She is now starting to try and pull herself up!!! AGGHHH!!!!! lol.... She loves playing with Angie and Gabe. They make her laugh so much and so hard! Its so cute!!! She is currently getting over a cold.
Angie is doing way better in school this period. She has improved so much. We had a conference with her teacher the other day and she said she has noticed a big improvement in her work. We've been working with her a lot.
Gabe is doing the same in school, which is GREAT!!! His only problem is his temper and frustration. lol... He gets easily frustrated with the other kids in his class. They goof off to much and his teacher said that he is more mature for his age. No word on his GAT test. She said it could take about a month. But, whether he passes or fails, she is still recommending him for the class. Oh, and he lost another tooth at school on Friday!!
Yesterday, Saturday, I took Gabe and Angie to Fort MacArthur Museum. We walked around their for a bit and I took pics. Then after we drove around and made our way to Ports O'Call Village. We walked around and ended up going on a 45 minute boat cruise. It was really neat. We got to see all the boats and ships and even some seals! One day soon, I will post those pics as well as the ones from Angie's Birthday Party!!!

Gabe is doing great. He's almost as tall as me!!!
Tomorrow I start my first day as a Full Time Employee!! I have my new hours already too! 40 hours a week guaranteed! Yay!

Time flys! (Week 7)
So much this week! Where to start!!!!
Lets see, last week...Thursday Nadia and I went shopping most of the day. Friday night my sis in law and I went out to Island's and had a couple of drinks.
Saturday Angie and I went shopping for things for her birthday party which is this weekend. We spent the afternoon making candy (I bought a mold and candy melts from JoAnn's Fabrics) and candy and goodie bags.
Here's one of the 13 handmade invitations (all of them are different):
The candys we made from the mold and candy melts:
Goodie and candy bags:
Saturday night I worked so when I got home at 8:30 am Sunday morning I went to bed! I didn't sleep much, but it was enough. We didn't do much Sunday.
Oh, Sunday I cut Angie's hair! Myself! And it doesnt look to bad if I say so myself!! She tried to cut it herself sometime before that! lol.. crazy girl!!
The angle makes it look crooked, but it isn't!
Gabe took his G&T test on the 4th. We don't know the results, but when I talked to his teacher about the test back in the fall she said that whether he passes or not, he's still going to be in the program next year!!
Nadia is getting close to crawling! She's all over the place now! She mostly goes backwards, but she's starting to get on her knees now!!
Well, I think thats it for now! lol.. If I think of anything else or if anything else happens, Ill update!!

Here we go again! (Week 6)
This last week has been pretty busy. The kids have been sick and keeping me busy. Friday David and I went to the VA. They did an xray on my knee and gave me a knee brace. I have to have an MRI on it and probably have to do physical therapy. I fluid in my knee and sometimes it hurts when I walk. Other than that, everything else is ok. My thyroid levels are normal so I dont have to take my synthroid medication, but I do have to have them rechecked in about 6 weeks.
Angie's birthday is coming up in a couple of weeks and the last 2 days she was busy making her invitations. We are just going to have a small get together at the house and BBQ like we did for Gabe.
Gabe will be taking a test this week, either the 4th or 6th, for the Gifted and Talented Program at school. He doesnt seem to worried about it, but I am so excited!!! My baby is so smart!!!
Nadia is trying to crawl. This morning she was pushing herself up and going forward a little. Soon enough she will be all over the place!!
Well, thats about it for now!

Another week! (Week 5)
Another update!!
Good thing for the 52 weeks of a busy mom's life blog challenge! Otherwise, I probably wouldn't be updating this as often as I should!! lol...
So, before I update, I just want to say I LOVE MY SASSY MAMAS!!!!!!!! We've become close friends over the last year. As our babies grow, we share so much together!
Ok, on to the update. Lets see... Oh, Nadia turned 7 months yesterday!!! I took her for her 6 month check up on Thursday the 19th. She now weighs 15 lbs and is 25 inches long. She only gained 1 lb and grew 1 inch since her 4 month check up in December. I thought she would have grown more than that. She certainly feels and looks like she has!! The doctor said shes doing well so I'm not worried about anything!
Angie and Gabe just got home about 15-20 minutes ago. They went to a birthday party followed by a sleepover for one of their cousins. They went to Rainforest Cafe. I've never been, but they said it was fun and they had a blast!
David and I are doing pretty good. I've been working what hours they let me and he is still looking for a job. Other than that, we are just spending time together and with the kids. Last Sunday we took the kids and went and visited with David's grandparents. It was nice to visit and they were really happy to see us and the kids.
Well, hopefully the weather lets up and it starts to warm up again soon. Its tough keeping 3 kids entertained indoors! I want to take them to the park, beach, pier, and whereever else! lol...
Well, until next time!

Its that time again (Week 4)
Time to update! Lets see... I am still working as much as they let me. On Thursday and Friday I worked at our Beach Cities office. It was a lot of physical work but the time sure did fly! Everyone there is really nice and helpful! My knee has been acting up a lot lately. I had to put my knee brace on today.
Gabe and Angie had today off from school for Presidents' Day so we got to sleep in a bit. I do need to update my pictures blog with the most recent pics of the kids. Maybe one day this week when I get a chance. I finally finished my scrapbook for 2007-2008. I already started a new book for 2009. I have 3 pages done, I just need to get a book!!
Since I've been working mostly nights, I've been reading a lot. I am reading the Ghostwalker series by Christine Feehan. I am more than half way thru the 3rd book. Its a really great series and recommend you read it.
Well, thats about it for now. As soon as I get a chance, I will update my pictures blog.

Busy, busy, busy (Week 3)
Wow, its been OVER a week since I last posted! I've been so busy with work and the kids. I actually have a day off today!! Yay!!! lol....
Ok, lets see.... Gabe lost another tooth last week! I can't believe he is still losing them! Angie is growing up on me. She doesnt seem to need my help much anymore. She's doing everything on her own. Nadia is getting close to crawling!! Shes rolling all over the place too! And she talks so much {ok, babbles} more too! I can't believe how fast time has gone. She has her 6 month check up on the 19th. We will see how long and how much she weighs!
As for me, like I said, work, work, work, work, work!!! Since Thursday I was working the night shift. Back to days tomorrow!!!
Well, thats about it for now.

What a weekend! (Week 2)
Well, lets see, what happened this weekend..... Friday I went out. Woohoo! Sgt Pepper's Dueling Pianos was so awesome! I so want to go back again!! I had 2 mixed drinks (Malibu Rum with 7-up) and a jager bomb..........yum!!!!!!!!!!!!! David and the kids just stayed home and played on the PS3. Saturday we pretty much just chilled at home. The kids played outside since we had really nice weather! Sunday I had to work.. blah, but I met up with David and the kids at his grandparents house for Super Bowl Sunday. It was nice to see everyone since we haven't seen them in awhile.
Other than that, not too much really going on.

January 29, 2009
Almost the weekend!
I am so ready for it to be here! 1 more day of work (6hrs) and then play time! lol.. ok, well not so much of a weekend since I have to work on Sunday!!! Super Bowl Sunday of all days! Everyone will be going to David's grandparents house to watch the game and I will be at work. Oh well, thats life! lol
Lets see, work is going great! I'm trying to work as many hours as they will let me. lol... This week I was working the early shift. Man, its hard to have to get up and BE AT work by 7 am!!! Normally I'm getting up around 6 or 6:15 and leaving the house after 7! But, you gotta do what you gotta do to make it in this world.
Oh, Angie is Citizen of the Month AGAIN this month! She is doing really well in school and is a big help around the house. Gabe is doing really well in school as well. He should be testing soon to see if he will be in the Gifted and Talented (GAT) Program at school next year. That boy is too smart for his own pants!!! Nadia has 2 teeth coming in on the bottom! I should be taking her to her 6 month check up around the 8th. We will have to see how much she has grown!
David is doing well too. Still looking for a job, but with this economy, its so hard. But for now, he and I are both spending lots of time with the kids and each other.
Well, thats about it for now. =)

My New Years Resolutions
Originally I wasn't going to "have" any, but there are some things I would like to accomplish this year.
1. I would like to lose some weight. I am off to a great start so far! I am down 2.5lbs! You can track my challenge: http://nikkisweighlossgoal.blogspot.com/
2. Spend even more time with each of my 3 babies. Both individually and together. Angie and I have been going for afternoon walks. Nadia may or may not go. She likes getting out! I play with Nadia on the floor. I watch tv (mostly cartoons) with Gabe.
3. Spend more time with David. I am looking forward to celebrating 10 years of marriage in May!!
4. I would also like to work on my finances. I found a really great job I like that pays me well and has awesome hours! I have a few things I would like to get paid off this year.
Well, thats about it. Not too much and so far I am off to a great start!

Happy New Year!!!
Well, things have been going well here in Cali! The kids are doing great in school and I am loving my new job!

Nadia is getting so big! When she was born, she was 6lbs 4oz and 19 inches long. At her 4 month check up in December, she was weighing in at 14lbs even and was 25 inches long!
David and I are doing pretty good as well. We have been together, as of the 1st, for 11 years! We will be celebrating 10 years of marriage in May!
