If you haven't already seen this...

This is a tribute to President Gordon B. Hinkley who passed away Jan 27, 2008. He was the President of our church and Prophet of the World. A wonderful man who we are glad he is reunited with his wife and the Savoir Jesus Christ.

"They paved paradise and put up a parking lot."

They paved paradise and put up a parking lot
With a pink hotel, a boutique, and a swingin' hot spot
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot

They took all the trees, and put em in a tree museum
And they charged the people a dollar and a half to see them
No, no, no
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone
They paved paradise, and put up a parking lot
Joni Mitchell

One of the last remaining undeveloped coastlines in Southern California is under terrible attack by those who love money and concrete more than they love nature. Maybe these people were never allowed to play outside when they were children but the point is that now they are trying to take away the outdoors from our children. These men want to build a massive toll-road directly through the San Mateo Creek watershed, through the Donna O'Neill Land Conservancy and San Onofre State Beach Park's San Mateo campground that will link up with Interstate 5 near Basilone Road. Most of it has already been approved but we can still do something about it. It hasn't been built yet and if enough people fight, anything is possible. To give you a clearer perspective of what is at stake I posted a link that shows some pictures of the future damage.

poopy

This past weekend we went to the game center and our friend Jackie was holding Elizabeth and she pooped all out of her diaper onto Jackie! This is the second time in a week that she has exploded out of her diapers so I thought it just might be time to switch to size 1. Say goodbye to the newborn size because we went to the Dr. today and Lizard weighs 10 lbs!!!! Yeah, but it is a sad moment to think that she is getting bigger. Being the sentimental person that I am of course I kept the last diaper hahaha

We love you Grandma

I'm not positive but I think this little girl finally weighs at least nine lbs. We will find out on monday


Hello

She thinks she can crawl or something!!!!

Washington

Welcome to Washington. This past week we went to Washington state to visit my dad and family. Everyone said "don't bring your baby on the plane because she is going to get sick and she will catch a cold in that state" well guess what she got better while in washington because it is not as windy there as it is here in Hawaii. My parents live by mt. Rainer so here is a picture of the lovely mountain. Here is Amanda and Kristen. Kristen is my niece and Amanda is a long time friend of the family that came up tp visit from Oregon for the baby shower that they threw for my little monster! Aren't they cute little ladies. They are only 16 and 17 so back off!
Auntie Michelle bought little lizard these bunny slippers we thought they were adorable so we put them on right away.
There was tons of food and a cute cake created by auntie Dhalia with a little baby on a surf board.
Oh this is awesome. It is a blanket that swaddles the baby tight so they can't get out. I love love love it. Of course Elizabeth can get out because she has massive muscles but it at least keeps her in longer. Thanks aunt Stephanie.
She got so many gifts we ended up adding two more suitcases on the way home. It was a really fun day. This is Jesse and Elizabeth after church. She wore her stunning red dress!!!
Uncle Fernando took us out to Outback Steak house. yummmmm... He made my sisters jealous because they haven't seen her yet and he got to hold her first.
Grandpa and granddaughter new found love....
On the holiday we went up to Seattle and had the most wonderful time hanging out and eating food. Of course we forgot our camera at home so we have no footage of that. But here is Jesse and Lizard pooped out from the long day we had and ready to go home.
Overall our trip was a wonderful one. It was nice to see everyone and hangout. Jesse ended the trip by rockin out to guitar hero.

days go by

Yesterday we went to the beach for the first time and i will never do it again until she is older. yeah yeah yeah she is only three weeks old but Jesse really wanted to go. The whole time elizabeth just acted wierd. She cried while she ate and she kept throwing up it was horrible. Her throw up was this white cottage cheese chunky stuff. So we were only there for about an hour, after Jesse finished surfing it was time to go back home where she is most comfortable. What can I say we live and learn with kids. We will just wait til she is older to return. But look what we found on the beach! On another note Jesse went back to school today so Elizabeth and I have to get into a routine. Jesse will be gone a lot of the time this semester because his class schedule is crazy. On monday, wednesday, friday he is gone from nine in the morning to five at night. And on tuesday and thursday he has class from eleven to twelve then works from one to seven. So now I can get a little taste of what it is like to be
a single mom. Ha hahaha I guess this is what it is like in the real world where the husband has to work and the wife stays home. In the night he will no longer be awaken to change diapers so he can get sleep. We decided he will have her whenever he is home so he still has a relationship with her and she wont be one of those kids who screams when left with daddy. They are so cute together and he loves her so much. Awwww !!
