Today has been quiet the day! This early afternoon I found out that my oldest sister Amy has cancer. She has stage 1 germ cell cancer. It is the easiest to treat and coming from people who have lost loved ones to cancer they said if you are going to have cancer this is the kind that you want. She is recovering from her surgery right now and then they are going to start Chemo in about four weeks.
Lim received a phone call this early evening stating that his brother Keni is on life support and has been in a coma since last Sunday!!! He woke up for a brief moment while Lim was talking to his youngest brother Joey. Keni didn't know what was going on and was scared then fell right back into a coma again. He didn't speak or anything. The doctors said that they have done everything medically possible to save him and that it is up to Keni now. We have been praying for him! Lim is leaving tomorrow morning to fly back home. Unfortunately we will not be able to go with him. It is good that he goes. He really wants to give him a priesthood blessing. I think that will make miracles happen. We did receive a phone call from Joey tonight saying that Keni is showing signs of improvement. That his left lung is worse then his right. We just have to have faith and hope and pray.

Malachi's First Field Trip
I didn't have my camera with me when we went to the zoo for Malachi's first field trip! I was so bummed! Our charger is MIA! So thanks to some good friends of ours they took pictures and sent them to me. I still have one more friend who has some pictures for me but I thought I would post what I have. :) Malachi had a great time. Lim was able to come with us along with Isaac and Alma. We were all there and it was just a great day to spend time with eachother at the zoo. It was funny to watch Malachi with his friends. He wouldn't eat his lunch unless Daddy was standing next to him. He is afraid of the peacocks still! One came by him years ago at the zoo back home while we were eating. Since then he refuses to eat if there are peacocks around. Poor guy I hope he will grow out of that soon. These peacocks are pretty bold though. They will come right up to you and get a crumb or piece of food right next to your foot and if you are not careful they will get on the table! So crazy! Anyway we had a blast and here are the pictures of Malachi and his school mates : ) Enjoy. Malachi is almost done with Kindergarten!!! Man where does the time go! He only has two more days! Then he will go into 1st grade and Isaac and Alma start preschool next year!!! Half day but still what am I going to do before the baby is born??? I guess just get ready for the baby. hahahaha I have always had a child at home for the past 6 years. It will be weird that they are all in school well at least for half the day. Time goes by too fast!

It's a GIRL!!!!!!!
Make a Smilebox slideshow |
This was our second ultrasound and it totally made up for the one that we had on Friday! This is what happened on Friday... They made me wait about forty minutes after my appointment time to be seen I had such a full bladder that five minutes into the ultrasound they asked me to half drain my bladder. Yeah not the easiest thing to do but I did. Anyway they wouldn't let my hubby come back with me while they did the measuring which was way weird because they did when I was spotting! Anyway so he waited in the waiting room for an hour! I wasn't able to see the screen at all during the whole time! Anyway so she went and grabbed Lim and started to show us the baby. We saw the heart beating which made us happy to see but she showed us that for about thirty seconds then showed us the kidney's and stomach and the foot kicking me but not the whole foot just toes. Then she went to see if it would be a boy or girl for two seconds said sorry cord is in the way, I couldn't tell, then wiped off the equipment and my tummy and that was all she wrote! Then she printed out this cruddy picture the worst I have ever seen where all you could see was the baby's knuckles moving so everything was blurry and you could hardly tell what it was! Even when I showed the tech today she could hardly tell. Crazy! Anyway so after giving me the picture she held the door wide open while I am still exposed and I am trying to hurry and pull up my pants tuck in my garments and fix my two layers of shirts! Not an easy task when the tech is still in the room holding the door wide open!!!! Yeah not a good activity I ended up just pulling up my pants as best as I could pulling my shirts down and saying that I would fix myself in the car. Lim was so upset! So I called up this other ultrasound office that does 3-D to see if they would just do a simple ultrasound where I could get a couple of pictures of the baby and see if we are having a boy or girl. They were so awesome and said Yes for 75 dollars they would give us 4 to 6 pictures and would try to see if we were having a boy or girl. We went in there and they were awesome!!!! The tech was GREAT and the quality was so much better!!!! Anyway they ended up printing us 15 pics one of which was a 3-D pic for free because the tech felt so bad for what we went through. She was so Awesome!!! It was incredible I am almost glad that we went through that so we could find this great place!!!!! Lim is super excited to have a girl! She is already softening his heart! I Love it!!! He was shocked at first but through out the day it has become a reality. We told the boys and they are so excited! Alma at first said No I don't want a baby! He just woke up from a nap and was a cranky bear. hahaha but when he woke up all the way he was so excited. Isaac said I have to give the baby a kiss and hug Mom before I go to bed. It was so sweet! Today was such a good day!!!! We were going back and forth on a name but we think we will stick with Kim Yonn Eileen Horn. Kim Yonn is my Mother in Law's name and Eileen is my middle name which has been passed down from my Mother and her Mother and I think her Mother. We are so excited!!!! We just couldn't wait to share the news!!! : )

My little helper or is he?????
Here is a picture of my little helper. That is what he was thinking he was doing this morning when I asked him just to go downstairs after he had woken up. I was taking care of a few things upstairs and asked him to go downstairs and get ready for breakfast. Well I had clean laundry that needed to be folded and put away last night but I decided to do some reading and go to bed early last night. So Isaac thought that he would be a big helper and take all the clean laundry and put them in the washer! Turkey. I was telling Malachi how he needs to put some clothes in his bin in their room and Isaac came up so proud of himself saying Mom I already did that! I asked him what do you mean, he said downstairs I put all the clothes in the laundry room! I looked at him and said not the clothes on the chase?? He said yeah I will show you! I went downstairs and thankfully he put it in the washer last time he put it on the floor and had dirty clothes mixed in with them, and yes they were folded and I was putting them away when he did that one. hahahahaha awww I told Isaac next time put only the clothes I ask you to put in the laundry room in there. K He of course was a little confused but said okay. I wonder if he will do that next time. Hahahahaha Good times. Just thought I would share that with you.

Mother's Day!!! : )
I had a very relaxing Mother's Day. It started very early since I had a meeting at the church at 8:30 that morning! I heard Lim's alarm go off I think like three times. He hasn't been feeling well and was trying to get up to serve me breakfast in bed. Poor guy. After the third time of his alarm going off I looked at the clock and saw that it was 7! Awww so I ran into the shower and hurried to get ready! Lim in the mean time woke up the boys fed them breakfast made me breakfast and had all their clothes ready to go and dressed himself, so we could all go to church at the same time. He dressed all the boys in their Sunday best at church while I was at my meeting. When we came home we had leftovers for lunch and we all took a much needed nap! When the boys woke up he took care of them so I could sleep a little bit longer. Then he made us yummy fried rice : ) He is such a good cook : ) The boys made me pot holders that say I Love You Mom with flowers on them. Very cute! So now I have three pot holders. After dinner we just hung out around the house and had our friends come over to help eat up the fried rice hahaha. We made a chocolate pudding pie with canned cherries and whipped cream to go on top! Yummy!!!! It was a very nice day!
I am very thankful for my boys and my hubby. I am Grateful to be a Mom and to have another edition coming soon to our family!!! We are all very excited about this baby! I am thankful for my Mother and all her prayers and Love! We all miss being with our family but love the phone calls that we have. Life is good!!! : )

Crazy Dreams!!
Whenever I am pregnant I have really weird dreams! I think it is all the hormones. Last night I had the worst dream!!! It was not a good activity at all! I woke up crying it was so sad. I had a dream that kids were being kidnapped and I was a teacher but they were kidnapped at their houses! It was so sad and I was trying to help find them and it was horrible!In this dream Malachi also kept trying to run down the street to this huge gutter! It had iron bars but he was the size of when he was two again and he could fit through them! I ran after him and by the time I got to him, he was about to let go of the curb! I told him never to do that and he looked at me and was like why Mom? It was just freaky and gave me chills!!! I am still a little disturbed by it hence the reason for me posting this.
On a good note last night my friend took me to get my very first Manicure!!! I have gone and had the fake nails put on before but never a manicure and it was really nice!!! I was thinking what a great gift for Mothers Day!!! The lady there asked to see our hands and as soon as she saw mine she said You need one!! I told her I have man hands. hahahaha So I am happy to say that they are looking more like a women's now. Hahahaha After our manicures we went for Coldstone. Yummy!!! Since it was Tuesday college night if you bought one ice cream the second one was only 25 cents! It was packed in there but so tasty and worth it! I had chocolate ice cream, peanut butter, hot fudge, and then Reeses Peanut butter cups! I thought it might be too rich but man it was well balanced and very tasty!!! I am glad I only bought a like it size since I scarfed the whole thing! hahaha My doctor says that I am only supposed to gain a half a pound a week. I don't know if I will make it this week. hahahaha
