This is the second day that Matti pooped out of his diaper. He hasn't done this since he was like teeny tiny :( & both times, I didn't even realize it until I was done changing him & there was poop up his back.
& last night, Teddi was wide awake while sitting by my feet. He ALWAYS sleeps. We head for bed & he would not come to me. He started shaking (which he does when he knows/thinks he's in trouble) so I look for pee or poop around the house & nothing!! I get him on his fours & that's when I see it. He had a nasty poop pellet (gross, I know TMI lol). I'm so sick & tired of poop.
End of rant.

*Comment to this entry and I will give you 5 subjects/topics that I associate with you. Then you must elaborate on them.*
Babies
I've always loved babies & kids in general (especially the younger ones how babble about the most random things that don't make sense). Most of all I love my baby :) I mean, how can one not LOVE their cute little hands & feet, the tooth-less smile, & they always smell good! Growing up, I didn't really get to take care or play with babies. Most of the time they were in the toddler age group. I liked to look. I have to admit, I would get so nervous when someone asked me to hold their baby because I was afraid I would drop them & I didn't know what to do if they cried. Jason's god-daughter, Alaina, was one of the first babies I had to hold the most. & each time, I was terrified. I never changed a diaper before Matthias was born. When it came down to Matthias though, it was all very natural. Everything just came to me. Babies are the best gift God can give to the world. Having Matthias call out, "Mama" or just reach out to me is one of the greatest feelings in the world. They have their own little personalities & I love learning things about them. Now, I can say I'm pretty much a pro with this baby thing. haha jk. I don't think a lot of people know that babies used to scare me haha. Usually, I get told that they don't want to hold Matthias because they are afraid, & I remember feeling that way. There's nothing to it guys! :)
Navy
I have a love-hate relationship with the Navy. I probably show more of the hate side though. I love that my husband, my best friend, my son's father, chose to serve his country. I love knowing that Jason is out there helping to fight for our freedom. I was excited about going through our first deployment & experiencing everything I've read about it (deployment & homecomings) in the past 6 years. Yes, Jason has been in for almost 6 years now. Yes, they work Jason a lot of hours & sometimes we only get 2 hours in a day to see him, but it's what he has to do. There's something about seeing a ship full of sailors manning the rails while they pull out of port. Seeing them in uniform saluting is just so touching. I hate the time that Jason has to be away from us, especially from Matthias, but I know that in the end it will be worth it. He is doing a great thing. The Navy has helped us more than it has hurt us. Our relationship is rock solid thanks to these separations. We've met great & amazing people because of it. Friendships that I know will last even after we go our separate ways. I'm proud of the men & women in the Armed Forces but even more proud of Jason. I'm a Navy wife & I'm proud.
Straight Hair
Once upon a time, I could hop out of bed & my hair would be stick straight. Believe it or not, my hair isn't. Since we've moved to the US in 1994, my hair has gotten this wave to it. I hate it & that's why my flat iron is my best friend. aha. I can't deal with curls in my hair & I will have lazy days when I'll just leave it how it is. That's how I was post pregnancy, but I've started to care again--8 months later. Weird thing is, if I try to curl my hair, it will either a) not curl or b) fall out after 15 minutes. So yep, second secret is out, I straighten my hair.
Dance
It's so weird that you chose this word. I love dance. I love watching America's Best Dance Crew, Dancing with the Stars & So You Think You Can Dance (does that show still come on though?). I took ballet when I was in 7th & 8th grade. I loved it & I quit for the dumbest reason ever. Before that, I did Filipino Folk dances & those were fun while it lasted haha. In YFC, I decided to dance for Revelation & we did that dance for the Talent Show at Great Mills in 2003. We took first place! :) Anyway, I watch those shows, especially SYTYCD & the contemporary/ballet ones are when I start wishing I hadn't quit. I really wish that I was still dancing. I also told Jason that I wanted to do ballroom dancing with him, but we obviously haven't gotten around to that yet. I do wonder though, if my back would hold me back. I have bars in my back & that's why I always have perfect posture. I can't arc my back anymore.
Filipino Spaghetti
This one of my favorite foods in the entire world. I love spaghetti period, but filipino spaghetti is just AMAZING. & it's one of the easiest filipino dishes you could make! A lot of people often ask me what's is filipino spaghetti. Basically, instead of tomato sauce (like Ragu or Prego etc), we use filipino ketchup for our sauce. Yes. Ketchup. BUT filipino ketchup is usually banana ketchup (if I'm not mistaken). Yes. Banana. haha..but it doesn't taste like bananas. I can get into this even more & say I prefer to use UFC ketchup instead of Jufran. haha. My mom taught me how to make this & I make it for Jason at least twice a month. It's very sweet & sometimes spicy if you use the spicy ketchup, but it is oh so yummy! I'm craving now, thanks Xa! & I forfot to add, we put hot dogs in it!

Time for a change
This is the third blog that I have. One of the other ones I've had for a long time, but I still write in. It's mostly about what I did that day or things that are coming up. The other one only has a few people on my readers list. I don't write there as much & I write there when I can't bring myself to write in the other one. I don't know why. I made this one to just write about whatever I have on my mind and nothing gets held back. I know I can easily do this with the other two, but there's something about having a new blog for a "new" me, I guess. I don't even know if people will actually read this, if not, it'll just be something to look back on for myself. I'm probably one of the most passive people you'll ever meet. The only time I'll say something is if it's something that really touches me or something that I know about. I've also learned that this passive behavior that I have is also a bad thing. It has left me with a lot of things to say, but not saying them in fear of losing someone I care about. It also gave people the wrong impression of me; that I can be walked on. I've been working on this. I am also a big goof & random at times which makes me look like the biggest dork. My biggest fallback is when I meet people, I'm very very quiet. I usually won't say anything unless I'm spoken to, and even then, I'll give the shortest answer possible. I try hard not to do this, but I'm just not good when it comes to things like that. Once I'm comfortable in a situation or with the people, I become my true self. I'll be the loudest short girl you'll meet. haha. With that said, I'm only 4'10" short & an extra inch was given to me 5 years ago when my back was fixed. I got two bars & 14 screws in my back to straighten my back because I had scoliosis--and didn't even know it! In this blog, I want to be able to express my feelings and say what I want. I mean, hiding everything?? What kind of a blogger is that?
I love my husband [&puppy]. I love my family. I love my friends. I love God. And I love FCJ [Families in Christ Jesus] Youth. I love love & I love hard. Sometimes I suck at showing how much I really love and care for someone, but like I said, I'm trying. My husband & I have been together for almost 6 six years [this coming October]. It seems like we've been together longer, and yes, we are high school sweethearts. He's everything that I want in a man & I know that sounds so cliche, but I'm not kidding. Everything that I wanted past boyfriend[s] to be, and I tried for them to become, is everything my husband is. I believe that everything happens for a reason & that whatever is meant to be will always find a way. He's in the United States Navy & we're coming up on 4 years being with them. Our time with them might be coming to an end, but nothing is sure for now. I thank him for everything that he has done & is continuing to do for me & for us. He's my rock.
My family. We're kind of weird. We show our love to each other by doing things for each other rather than spoiling ourselves silly with gifts and whatnot. Gifts were never a big thing with our family for birthday or Christmas. It's always been what we needed rather than what we wanted. I hated that as a child, but I love them for that. I'm glad that I wasn't spoiled, yes we did get gifts, but not thing crazy. I wasn't always close with my parents & little brother [who isn't so little anymore]. It was more of a just do your own thing & leave me alone. My parents were very protective over me, and I hated that growing up. My relationship with Jason was very hard because of how strict my parents were. I didn't understand alot of the things & rules they put on me, and some of them I still don't understand. I know now that they just love me & wanted the best for me. They didn't want me to hurt & they wanted me to be careful. I wanted to please my parents even though they probably didn't realize it. My parents wouldn't have let me get married at a young age if they didn't think he was the guy for me. I guess the 4 years it took for them to understand our love for each other & that we were willing to work hard [& with the Navy], but it's all fallen to place. I hate to say that we're now closer, but better late than never right? My "little" brahder just graduated high school. I didn't like him very much most of my high school years because he was the spy for my parents. I had to take him everywhere I went & he had to report back to my parents. Towards the end, he stopped doing that though. haha. Us together is so funny. We're both so goofy & we're so comfortable with each other that it's crazy. I can't describe the relationship that we have, but I know it makes me smile. He's got the most amazing girlfriend whom I love so friggiin much it's not even funny. That's all I'll say about that. My friends are pretty much the same friends I've had since high school. We're not the typical group of friends. Our ages range from 14-22., lol, but we make it work. We also don't call each other every day to see what's going on, because duh, I have a pretty boring life. haha. When we do talk or see each other, we just pick up where we left off. Catching up is better that way anyway. We're all pretty random & loud, but that's not a bad thing because it never gets old. We're happy with just sitting around doing absolutely nothing and still be laughing our butts off. They're the most amazing group of friends and I don't tell them enough.
This is quite long already, so I think I'll stop for now. I promise I won't write an essay next time, I just wanted to get all of this out for now. Happy Thursday & enjoy the first day of summer.
