June 22: Movie Night

So Friday I was COMPLETELY lazy... I did not feel like getting out of the bed and since Mimsi was sick, I had all the more reason to stay in my PJs all day!

I let the Nanny relax a bit on my off days. The kids are usally sleeping in. I take out the dog, make breakfast, clean up a bit and turn on the cartoons for the kiddies! Then I am completely tired because I worked the WHOLE night before. Shout Out to my famous Breakfast Burritos!!! Back on track... So Gustavo and DJ went to Fahaheel to finish up some little last minute things... I took care of my baby bear, Mimi, and gave her a shower. She was having body aches and all! Poor thing! Then we ordered some Chinese. I was SADDENED by how un-happy I was with the food. I will NOT be callin there AGAIN... (I will not disclose your name now... Because it is SUNDAY) Gustavo was craving Sabidee... But I didn't have the number, Go figure. As the night pushed on, I started to get very sad... So I baked and baked. So my family is happy to have Chocolate Cupcakes with Carmel frosting and Super Fudge Brownies...

Then it was time to get in bed and watch our movie...

"Battleship"

Yes- It is Rihanna

And the Hottie from "Just Go with It" Brooklyn Decker

I think that is was a pretty good movie. Gustavo watched more then usual but only Dj made it to the end. I always wake up close to the end... I started Boo-Hoo crying for no real reason (Am I becoming a SAP?) and my sweet DJ noticed and rubbed my shoulder... I LOVE those moments! We are doing a great job raising two little humans!

I know it seems like a very boring day to most... But it was just what we needed~

Build-A-Bear

Since Gustavo is about to go on a "Business Trip"... I thought that for "Father's Day" the kids and Gustavo could Build A Bear together. The kids are always trying to bargain a way into sleeping in our bed. And every morning that is their first stop! I figured this way they would feel like they had a piece of him. They absolutely LOVE their bears!!! See below:

This place had every accessory a bear can have. It was pretty much a Bear boutique. From shoes to jewelry, leather jackets and all sorts of cool gadgets to accessorize and pimp out a bear.

This was the sound section where you can select from a wide variety of sounds or could do your own custom which is what Gustavo did.

So many different kinds!

DJ picked a Pup

Take a picture. Special edition Build-A-Bears!

Stuff and Fluff Station!

Mimi picked the Celebration Bear! One year in Kuwait! ME TOO!

Mimi listening to the message Daddy left!

DJ patiently waiting for M.I.D.K to get stuffed

Daddy talking to DJ. His Champion!

This is DJ and M.I.D.K (M=Magnificent, I=Including, D=Destroy, K=King)

Rub your hands together... Really fast!!!

Rubbing some LOVE off of Daddy!

A great Father/Daughter/Son activity! Don't you just LOVE Father's Day?

DJ at the Early Learning Center Store where they have real cool and expensive educational games, every time we went to the Avenues he will always want to go into this store to get this huge medieval castle. The deal was that he had to learn his times tables to ten and he will get it. Sure enough DJ completed the task and Daddy had to go buy this castle. Yesterday we just went to get the action figures.

Dj-White to Yellow

So- DJ had his karate competition this Friday. I guess I was confused because I did not think that I would be downstairs in a room packed with people... Nor did I think we would be the only Americans! LOL.
