Bianca Ann’s November

Tuesday, November 29th, 2005

Hello folks… thought to devide the stuff about me and each of my family to save space…see if it works.

2 Nov.–Nemo on Ice in Everett evencts Center..Bianca ann had a blast so did we. hours before that we let her watch the Nemo on DVD to prepare her for the Nemo on Ice in the eveningNoi2 . She was smiling, clapping and jumping the whole timeNoi1 –we could feel her joy at that moment.Noi3      

3 Nov.- It was a a cold day thought make a champorado with fried dried fish. so yummy…(Oh I will be just posting the pics in my album..take too long to upload my pic here when I attached it with my blog… Bianca Ann loves it also the fish… after lunch we made some art–cutting pic from the flyers and glued it to the while paper. Billy comes home early that day–means I have to cook dinner-spaghetti. Bianca Ann was still cutting paper behind me while I was stirring the spaghetti sauce. I did check her every minute we were talking too–she was describing of what she was doing— though she’s been with scissor a few times supervised by me during art time–you know mother’s instinct that something might happen. One moment she got quiet so I kinda glance at her— I jumped when I saw hair on the table–I freak out and worst thought came true–she did cut her hair. I grab the scissor first then run for the camera for evidence. She was so embarass because I was laughing hard at her…Good thing its only her bangs she had a 2 ponytails that time…pic is posted at my blogs photo album. Tell me what do you think??? And I did learned my lesson in a hard way–scissor and a toddler  unsupervised in SECOND is  a bad idea…

Something to Laugh for Thanksgiving! forwarded by a friend

Wednesday, November 23rd, 2005

As we enjoy the holidays, remember to be nice to those first-time turkey cookers… One year at Thanksgiving, my mom went to my sister’s house for the traditional feast. Knowing how gullible my sister is, my mom decided to play a trick. She told my sister that she needed something from the store.

When my sister left, my mom took the turkey out of the oven, removed the stuffing, stuffed a Cornish hen and inserted it into the turkey, and re-stuffed the turkey. She then placed the bird(s) back in the oven.

When it was time for dinner, my sister pulled the turkey out of the oven and proceeded to remove the stuffing. When her serving spoon hit something, he reached in and pulled out the little bird.

With a look of total shock on her face, my mother exclaimed, "Patricia, you’ve cooked a pregnant bird!" At the reality of this horrifying news, my sister started to cry. It took the family two hours to convince her that turkeys lay eggs!

Happy Thanksgiving to all!!!!

Fairy Ballerina…

Tuesday, November 1st, 2005

Woke up this morning…still raining,wet and cold—so thought we are not be able to go play outside with this wet weather. I asked Bianca Ann want to be a ballerina again with wings this time?? she reply yes mommy!!!

After breakfast were infront of the mirror on her ballerina outfit—fixing her hair and the tiara; when I get done she wants sipi again— she calls lipstick "sipi" I have to let her do it before she throw a fit. This time a fairy ballerina with a wings….Hal0528 Hal0532 Hal0533 Hal0534 Hal0537 she loves it so much that she requested a music she can dance with and pretend she is a butteryfly flying…I do praise GOD and so thankful for my precious Bianca Ann. She is a wonderful blessing to me and my family.

Thank you all for keeping up with me and all the Halloween wishes and I do wish you all a warm sunny days ahead—i know its cold brrrrr… our mountain here are getting snow and am sure SOON we will be getting one. I cant wait…I do love snow in my yard! CIAO!!!

Halloween 2005!!!

Tuesday, November 1st, 2005

I got up at 7 am…my alarm Bianca Ann wakes me up with her crying…she was kinda warm…I said Uh-uh!!! give her milk, a tylenol, a cold rug and a massage with vicks vapor rub. I guess it helps, she took a nap and wakes up in a good mood. It was a rainy, wet and cold halloween monday. I called Maya to let her know that we will be stopping by at 4 pm for the trick and treating if it will rain at 6 pm.

I set Bianca Ann mood that she will be a Ballerina and we will be going to Tristan house for the candy. She dont like it when i say "trick or treat, gimme something to eat… she would remind me—its CANDY Mommy!

When I was dressing her up–she was being good—she stand up still while I was fixing her hair and putting the tiara, oh the feathery tiara I got from Rite Aid –it was too big on her head!!! so I use the one I got from Target–good thing I got a reserved Tiara. But I was able to use the star wand from Rite Aid. She even tried to put lipstick liner as an eyebrow—able to clean up that, then insists to put lipstick by herself—her face was a mess but again able to clean it up. She’s watching Mama really good!!! he!he!he!

Got done dress… and a few pic taking in and outside of our house,Hal051  Hal053 Hal059 Hal0510 we went walking to Maya’s house–there’s Dominique  dress up as a Minnie mouse and Tristan as a Mickey Mouse fireman…so cute!! Maya decided to let Tristan to come with me and Bianca Ann going trick or treating. We went to our second house at Lisa—we knocked—- Bianca Ann was so shy she did not say anything and even handed her candy to Maliyah she thought we are supposed to give them candy, as soon she see Lisa got a bag of candy she reached for her care bear pail and said thank you. After the 4th house—we went home to eat dinner with daddy at 5:20 pm. Bianca Ann could not wait to eat her treat candy…she got 4 in all. eat one but she did not finish it.Hal0516

After dinner–here comes Michelle with her niece Gisselle dress up as Dora The Explorer so cute she does looks like Dora. Still tristan with me, we continued to go around houses, with a 3 toddler feels like we been in the road walking forever. The 3 toddler got scared with some scary outfit/mask. I saw Winnie the Pooh Bianca Ann was so scared that she ran away crying, she always get scared of those mascot I dont know why–we have seen Arthur in Seattle Childrens Museum, Chuck n Cheese and Ducky mascot—same reaction.

We went home at 7 pm…poor Bianca Ann her hand was red — am not sure if its from holding/carrying around her pail or the cold temp. I got worried too that we might run out of candies—same thing happen last year that I end up giving away Bianca Ann’s treat.-all the 150— I repacked were gone and give some back-up candies 4 times. Some kids are annoying that they have to ring the bell and knock the door a few times this is around 8:30 pm—so i thougtht put a "note" just ring or knock once please…! Bianca Ann was so excited with her candies she tried to open, taste, throw and open another one.

While trying to put her on bed and putting away her halloween outfit, I just remember the "WINGS!!!! how could I forget about it…oh well its ok….my baby was still a cutie without her wings!!!

Carving pumpkin…

We carved our pumpkin last Saturday..Bianca Ann was so excited that she even tried to carved her own pumkin and she wants a happy face pumpkin. I helped her with her pumpkin… I did carved my own pumkin too, with an easy pattern. Billy was great; a witch holding a jack-o-lantern pattern.(the one outside pic of Bianca Ann) As to Bianca Ann Halloween outfit I was able to make up my mind last friday 29th Oct. just browsing on the sale rack of Target. And I saw this purple lovely ballerina outfit…thought wow!!! check the price $20.00,and it was not on sale– kinda pricey outfit..I proceed to the costume isle hoping to find an outfit for her—nah!!  the quality are made for one use only. Since I know it will be a cold day so I went bought a black long-sleeve onesie for her to wear with the ballerina outfit, I got already a black tights from the Old navy the other day. I got her also a wand (on sale 74 cents) and a cutie tiara with hair clip and band.

    Last Sunday went to church…Bianca Ann was acting funny. In a way —she knows there’s doughnut after the mass, she could not wait till the mass is over. She was pulling my hand to go to the table and telling me she wants to eat in a loud voice (doughnut was not served yet), during the communion she did not come with me—she sat down on the table, then she went looking for me ‘Mama where are you!"  on my way to my chair–she asked me Mama— I was looking for you! then asked me whats in my mouth and to share it with her.

After church went to Rite Aid to have my 265 photos to put in a Kodak CD— took 3 pic CD’s. While waiting I went browsing thier costume aisle with 75 % off tag…I found a purple feathery tiara and a star wand, thought hmmm I like it, then I feel in love with the purplish set of wings … the price $2.99!!! Thought lovely!!! Bianca Ann been watching the Dora Explorer halloween–so she knows what to say and she needs to wear a costume to get candy. I showed the wings to her she said she will be a Butterfly Ballerina …she wants to play with the wings that night  so I put it away and hoping I will remember where I put it.

I was so excited for the Halloween too— dressing up my precious as a Fairy Ballerina and worried what if she change her mind not to dress up. I went to bed at 2 am monday — after I iron my hubbys 2 cami’s uniform and even did a re-pack of the candies into sandwhich size bag (fold type) and tied it with a ribbon. I made 150 pieces whole box of sandwhich plastic bag…whew!!!
