a darn annoyed house fly and Jaynann

Ok I have to hurry and type before I forgot what happened earlier this afternoon. I by accident have let 2 flies in the house, my bad. One was killed and the other one escaped and still is flying around the house. A few time while Jaynann was laying down and I was taking a little nap. That darn fly had managed to bug her. I didn't know what it was at first, she jumped and cried. I thought she had a bad dream or ran out of milk but no no it was that fly. Later on she picked up a piece of baby wipe and tried to pick up the fly. Certainly she missed. The fly escaped and flied away. She even used one of her favorite book to try to hit that fly. She spotted where it was and went for the goal. She missed! Oh no! She got even more mad now. While she was playing with a laundry basket dressing herself up in a dress, the fly came near her again! She couldn't stand it no longer, she undressed all her clothes down to her diaper. Just about when I got done nursing Zeke and ready to snap a picture, she decided to give up killing that fly. Maybe in a little bit, she will be driven crazy by the fly again. What funny about this story is her expression. She was mad, annoyed, and maybe scared of the fly. She ran away from it and came up with several solutions. I convinced her to put her clothes back on so that the fly wouldn't touch her. Jaynann is certainly a smart girl. She observed Ed and I when we tried to kill the flies. I am just waiting for her to roll an Ensign magazine to hit that fly again. We will just have to wait and see. That darn fly is still in sight and is waiting to attack Jaynann.

My prince has arrived.

I'm not a pioneer.

Ed has something about the ancient pioneers. He seems to talk about them a lot, almost all the time. He often compares life's experiences today to the pioneer's time, to be funny maybe. Don't get him wrong, he admires them. He even mentioned them in his Zeke's blessing. So if you have had a conversation about the pioneers with Ed. He'd tell you how I was a bad pioneer because I couldn't handle hard works and such. Plus I like to complain just about everything. Once he joked about me being a bad pioneer to my friend, she was so offended for me. I thought to myself, oh well, I'm glad I wasn't born during the pioneer time. Ed would laugh and laugh about it. What so funny?! I don't know. So this past eight and a half months, I was carrying our 2nd baby Zeke. It was such a challenging pregnancy. Not only I had to deal with bathroom problems, also it was painful to sit and walk. He was hanging out in my tummy so low. Once the doctor felt his head and said to me that the more kids I have, the lower I will carry them. It is sad to hear. However I doubt the doctor's comment because I don't see how it is possible. I guess, I would have to pee my pants all the time. It is all funny to me now but I remember that I wasn't laughing a month ago. Enough about me, let talk about Zeke. He was such a perfect baby. The day I went to the doctor appointment on the early morning of May 18th, I was already 4.5 cm dilated. By the time I got to the hospital around 10.30 am, I was at 5ish. Ed and I had a good time waiting for the medications to kick in. It started to become real when I felt the pain at around noon. Some tears start running on my face but it wasn't long until I received an epidural. That was a very painful process for some reason. It also took a long time getting it in and I was really crying in pain this time. I looked up to see Ed's face. It seemed like he was scared of the needle. I heard it was quite big and long. Yap, I wasn't a true pioneer because I refused to deliver him without pain medicine. I know the pioneers didn't have a choice then. I'm certain they wouldn't mind having a pain killer if it was available then. Anyway, once they give me some type of relaxing medication, I was so sleepy. But then not long after, I was at 6, 9, and 10 cm. I heard Dr. Anderson said "let have a baby." I pushed his head, shoulders, (not knees and toes) and the rest of his tiny body out. It was fast and almost painless when I delivered him. Zeke was screaming very loudly right when he came out. The nurse said he was mad. It is a BOY! I cannot believe I just had another baby! After Zeke was born, Ed came up and kissed me. He said thanks for having a baby for him. I thought that was sweet and I wouldn't mind doing it over again. He then started telling me how I would make a good pioneer. Hahaha!!!! I laughed. Why did he bring it up again? Don't know. But Ed just had to mention it so that it could put a smile on my face. I guess he has changed his mind after the delivery.He later on mentioned it to his family and friends how I was such a good pioneer again and again and again. I'd shake my head and laugh when I heard him said that. I had it way easier than the pioneers, Ed. Trust me, they'd love to have it my way than their way. I'm just blessed to have the baby this way and I am thankful for every second of it. So there you have it, Ed's and my pioneer experience. For those who know my husband well will know what I'm talking about.

P.S. Zeke, Ezekiel Gonlawat Hewitt was born on May 18th, 2009 at 3.37 pm. He weighed 7.1 pounds and 19.5 long. He loves to sleep and poo A LOT!

Don't you grow up too fast baby Jaynann.

Call Me....

Jaynann has a boyfriend(s).

My beautiful baby Jaynann has managed to survive nursery no problem. Since we also work there, no one really knows that Jaynann is only 15 months not 18 months yet accept a few leaders. She has been there since she was 11 months. Not only she got along well with all her bigger friends but she has found herself boyfriend(s) also.
The first one is Michael is Christy's littlest boy. He is about 20 months. He used to hold her hands and walk around the chapel. They also play together often in church. Jeremiah is another boy that likes to feed Jaynann goldfish crackers. He used to come to nursery with green runny nose. Luckily he has gotten much better lately. So I feel relieve to let them feed each other. They somehow sit next to each other every Sundays. Last one is Tucker. Now I don't really know this little man's parents. A few weeks ago, Tucker was playing with toys, Jaynann leaned over about 3 times to try to kiss him on his cheek. She missed it! I was sitting next to both of them and saw the whole action. It was adorable and funny at the same time. Picture this event in slow motion. Jaynann even closed her eyes, hehe. I thought it was random. Baby Jaynann, you've never told mama about this first love. So this past Sunday, I was attending relief society and left all the kids with Ed and his crews. Ed told me afterward that Tucker and Jeremiah jumped on top of Jaynann while she was laying down drinking her milk. I guess Tucker started it and later Jeremiah joined in. Even better, Ed said Tucker gave Jaynann a big hug. They both were hugging each other actually. Darn, I missed it! I saw Tucker's dad after the meeting was over. I told his dad that my baby is in love with his son. He just laughed and didn't say much. I just want you to know Jaynann that I tried to be friends with Tucker's parents but I guess they aren't ready yet. After church was over, Ed said Michael's heart has now been broken, poor little man. Next week, I'll have to get some Valentine candies for Tucker for something. It'll be a memorable event that I can tell Jaynann later on when she grows up. Happy Valentine's Day baby Jaynann.

XOXO,

Mama

Jaynann and her Daddy

My Diddiiii

One day after putting Jaynann to bed, Ed mentioned to me that he didn't want Jaynann to grow up. His mom also ask often "when're you gonna stop calling her Baby Jaynann?" To Ed, I know Jaynann is everything. Even though back then when there were just us two, Ed didn't show much intertest in babies. Now Ed is Jaynann's "favorite biggest toy." She adores him and likes to be around him. Every night, Ed put her to bed. He always says to her, "good night, daddy loves you." Every morning, Jaynann cries for him to pick her up. I love seeing their relationships grow. I believe Jaynann is the luckiest baby in the world.

First few days at home, Ed and Jaynann too many naps together often. It was nice to see Ed became a dad.

Ed had proven me that he could give our newborn a bath. Go Ed!

Angela's wedding, both of them were tried.

4th of July night

A few days before moving out from the Tree. We sat outside after Ed got home from work. Jaynann and Ed were enjoying the nice weather. Jesse took this picture.

One day when Ed arrived home from work. Jaynann was so loving and wanted to be in his arms. Ed was in heaven.

The night before Christmas, we decorated a ginger bread house. Ed fed a bunch of gummy to Jaynann to keep her away from troubles.


You know what they say about being daddy's little girl.

Where we are......

I'm 15 months.

little foot prints

Saying hi to Dusty, the dog next door.

Jaynann is now almost 15 months old. She is still lively like always. Her little brother in my tummy is now almost 20 weeks. He is also happy and active. Can I say that I LOVE having a tummy and really don't mind it at all. I can do this again and again. As for Ed, he is almost done with his MBA. He has about 4 more months to go. When Ammon, the littest one is here, Ed will be done finally.

Jaynann...

She now has about 15 teeth. Luckily she doesn't bite. She still walks funny and has begun run. As far as getting in trouble, she likes to get into everything. She sometimes hides herself in the room, closes the door, then she cries for help. She also likes to drag the dirty laundry around--I guess because the clothes are colorful. One thing different about her, she has learned to say words like grandpa (papa), Tippy, daddy, and some Thai words. Reading is her hobby, she does it about 2 to 3 times a day and the same books over and over again. I can read to her without looking at the books. I am getting better at it too. She also likes watching morning cartoons. We dance and sing in front of the TV. Jaynann loves to learn. In nursery where we serve, Jaynann is the littlest. She blends in no problem however. Playing, singing, eatting, and reading in nursery are her favorite things to do. She has her favorite friends, boys of course. She even leaned toward on of them to try to kiss him 3 times. He didn't realized it until the last attempt and he rejected! How cruel! Don't know what inspired her to want to kiss him. Maybe she felt like he was like her teddy bear like one at home. I wish I had a camera to capture the moment. I was in charge of singing time last Sunday. My girl sat and stared at mommy (Tippy). She clapped and attempted to sing songs. My heart was full with joy. I guess I never had that experience with my mom. I was a shy fat kid in school who boys just wouldn't stop picking on. I dress Jaynann every morning and love it! I put her in skirts and dresses. It is my favorite time of the day. My dad didn't allow me to wear skirts nor shorts. I remembered once he ripped my only dress in pieces because I wouldn't take it off. I wore it over and over again. Yea, that scares me. Don't get me wrong, I love my dad very much. Just when me and my sister were little, we didn't get to be kids. Too busy in school and tried too hard to be smart. Once it was time for me to be a mom. I am doing almost everything opposite then my parents offered me. I think having freedom to choose is great. She is a human being and God made her a human for a reason. I do restrict and limit some options since she is still little. As far as what to eat or play, go for the goal baby. Anyway, I enjoy being a mom very much and I cannot wait to have a newborn in my arms again. He will be quite a joy to our lives. Ed cannot wait to buy new toys like legos and I cannot wait to say I have two kids, hooray!


Jaynann likes to explore.
