A Family Affair.

Daddy's other little helper.
The redo in Tiff's room is definately coming along. JB got his hands on the roller! John got home from work and went right to work on putting another coat of paint on. It's a very pretty color that we're going to paint the floor to match. Tiff's dream of a Japanese inspired room is coming to life!

Bala called last night. It was wonderful to reminisce and give each other updates on the family. I miss you all so much. I am so blessed to have my best friends be members of my family.

More on the room reno' is to come. We are having so much fun and cannot wait until Tiff gets home to see it.

Oasis in the Making!

Daddy's little helper.

We're working on redoing Tiff's room! Tiff's has outgrown her bunk bed (and her room can't fit it!), so we're retiring it. Mia was a "big help", haha! Poor John. JB and Mia both followed him all over the place trying to help him. They looked like little baby chics chasing him everywhere, just chirping away. Mia is mad right now because she can't go to the dump with Daddy and JB.
We're really excited about the changes. I'll post some before and afters for you.

Biba, Guahan!

JB and Mia kicking it with a caraboa.
John and Mia taking a break from folding clothes. Chips and french onion dip, yum, but Mia just ate the dip.
Happy Liberation Day, Guam! Yeah, we went to the parade. Laugh all you want, but it was the first year ever that it wasn't raining the whole time! I rained about two afers after we got there, but I'm just going to call that our natural timer.

Lately...

With Tiff gone, I don't have a 2nd pair of eyes to catch stuff like this.
Pretty Kaiya on the 4th of July. She's going to have a baby sister anyday now!
Mia sporting an Australian hat on the 4th of July, Mate!
Mia showing her agility and naughtiness.
Hi, guys. Not much going on. We're in a holding pattern waiting for Tiff to return. We aren't complete without her! JB is saving her gum and Mia loves to look at her picture on the computer and say "Sissy".
John's in training. He's looking for the enemy up at Andy South, who is disguised as his Superiors. He came home smelling like the sweat of 100 men... who wore the very same flack jacket over and over without a proper washing. He's having fun, but it's tough on the body. He's red as a lobster and very dehydrated. He did not, however, require medical attention as some others had, woot woot!
JB is loving summer camp as it serves as a trading place for him. Today he got a sweet "scanner" for his precious Transformer. He also learned that if you pretend to be sleepy, you can get out of Jiu Jitsu and get a sweet nap in the air con office. Aiyaiyai.
Mia has learned how to say "please" and "thank you" so you better give whatever she wants up or else she'll throw a fit! She's a danger to herself, like JB, and thinks nothing of climbing up on the computer table to get "no no's". Ai, these kids make me grey!
I'm good. I'm trudging along waiting to pick up Tiff. I miss her dearly and can't wait to see her gorgeous smile again.

Movie Night

Mia's been trying to take her diapers off lately so John's solution was to put JB's small underwear over them, since it's too hot lately to put on a full outfit.
Mia enjoyed the snow bubbles until they landed in her eyes.
The two little ones, John and I went to see Spiderman III. We went to GPO where they had a Copoiera demonstration and snow bubbles blowing from machines attached to the roof. Everyone, including me (Tiff would have been so embarrassed, was dancing to the Copoiera drums in the bubbles. Such fun!
