Bye-bye 2011

Soo long 2011 you sucked haha. Sike, it sure was a roller coaster for me. This year was my year of learning experiences. I learned so many things about myself that I am grateful it has taught me both mentally and spiritually, getting me closer to my heavenly father. I learned so many lessons and have been through so many trials that I am forever grateful to get pass through them. The year started off a bit rocky then ended lovely with my little sister going on a mission. 2011 was my 1 year anniversary, with my wonderful hubby and my sons 1st birthday so it was a huge year for us. I am soo ready to see what 2012 has in store for us, any surprises or more lessons to be learned lol. Here are my 2011 pictures throughout the year :)

Big Brother!

Siupeli will be the newest big brother in town come the end of May. I can't wait because I hope he learns how to share and stop whining every time for nothing. He is so spoiled and babied by me and I have only myself to blame. I'm hoping it's a boy just cause it would be soo much easier and less expensive, he'll get all the hand me downs from his big brother Siupeli! We decided if its a boy then he will be named after his daddy Paea. Hubby of course wants a girl ever since from the begining. He actually wanted Siupeli to be a girl but too bad, he also sees the way he is with his baby cousin Vea, Siupeli is super in love with her. He gets super happy seeing her and she's the only one he will not be mean to lol it's weird, maybe it's a preemie thing since they were both premature? Who knows! If it's a girl we will name her after my little sister our sister missionary Sister Otukolo. We took her to the MTC yesterday and I feel apart after we left because my mom called me and told me that all Sister Otukolo kept saying was " I miss Siupeli, I want to kiss him one last time." When Siupeli was only 2 months Nancy was his babysitter so they were attached ever since. We use to call Nancy, Siupeli's real mom lol. I miss Nancy soo much but I know she is in good hands. See you in 18 months Nancy and we can't wait for you to meet your newest niece or nephew :)

Christmas 2012

This Christmas was alright lol wished I won the jackpot or something. Jk I'm just asking for too way much, since I got a iPad a month ago hubby said I was done lol. We went to Oakland a week before Christmas to spend it with the in laws for a few days , it was short but fun. That was my christmas gift to my hubby and it was suppose to be a surprise to my in laws but that failed cause hubby got too excited lol. My hubby's little brothers and sisters are madly in love with Siupeli it's special and I know my hubby misses and cherishes everyone moment he has with them. The weather was awesome and of course the steak cheese fries were mouthwatering. This years christmas happened to fall on a special day for my younger sister Nancy, it was her missionary farewell program soo it was a double great whammy! Her talk was beautiful and spiritual I loved it, I was balling before she even spoke lol, geeez I'm gonna miss her annoying self :) the food was awesome and being with family is always a fun time. Siupeli got toys and clothes all thanks to my in laws for sending him money to buy him presents cause we sure went broke after our trip to Oakland. Hubby just got shoes that were ugly but way too expensive lol and headphones that were $50 but were free thanks to RC Willey they give me free things just for being a loyal customer! Here are pictures that way you all can visualize :)
