"Begin today and write in it your goings and comings, your deepest thoughts, your achievements and your failures, your associations and your triumphs, your impressions and your testimonies. I promise you that if you will keep your journals and records, they will indeed be a source of great inspiration to you, each other, your children, your grand-children and others throughout the generations. Remember, the Savior chastised those who failed to record important events." --President Spencer W. Kimball

Happy Mother's Day!

I hope all you Mother's out there had a very happy Mother's Day this past Sunday! Even though I had to work, I still had a great day! On Saturday night, my sisters and I took my mom out. We all went and got manicure's and pedicure's, went out and ate at Cafe Rio, and we were gonna watch a movie, but instead we just went and kicked it at my older sister's house. It was so nice to spend some quality time with my mom and sisters. On Sunday, I had to work in the morning so I didn't get to go to church, but when I got home, we had our annual Mother's Day feast at the in-laws. It was so nice to have Auntie Namu here from Frisco, Maze from Arizona, and Manusina from New Zealand... we just ate and talked all night long, and enjoyed each other's company. There was tons of food there, but I just focused on the JUMBO King crab legs. I don't think I've ever seen crab legs that big...they were so delicious!

This Mother's Day was extra special for my little family because we got some awesome news.... I have been feeling a little weird lately, not really sick, but different so I thought I'd take a pregnancy test just to see.....

I went to Walmart and bought the 2-pack...the first one had a two lines, but the test line was super duper light...so I'm thinking it's really a negative. I take the 2nd test and the line was a little bit darker, but still light. I read the instructions and it said that if there is any line at all, then it's positive. I was so excited, but still a little skeptical so on Friday morning, I dropped Makai off at school, I went to the doctor to get another test. POSITIVE! I was so happy! This is probably 1 1/2 years of trying, so we couldn't be more happy! My estimated due date is January 7th, 2010!!!!
