FUIMAONO FAMILY

So the first half of December wasn't too bad.....second half is a whole different story (so dramatic lol).  Dec 21 Got word that all our paperwork went through and that we could close on the house the following day. YAY! Dec 22 8:30am Aljay and Mom and Dad went to close on the house. I got the day off from work and stayed home with the babies to start packing things up. We had planned a nice and easy take-your-sweet-time kind of move. The main thing we needed to set up was everything for our Christmas party.  10:00am They get home and right as we start packing up things, we get a call from Rachel about LaPreal's passing. We were hit with shock, grief, and sorrow...and then immediately went numb and into action mode. We knew that we had to get moved into the house so that we can help host all the Hawaii crew that would be coming up. So now instead of taking it slow, we were anxious to pack up and get the house ready.  Dec 22-24 We are busy moving into ...

I feel like it's been a while since I've done an update on me and da Bebe Girl!  So here we go... Gestation: 32 weeks  YAY!! Finally feel like I'm  "almost there"....and after people asking me if I was "almost there" for the past 3 months...it feels good to actually be within 10 weeks of my due date. Praying that I carry to full term and we have a complication-free pregnancy.  Body Changes:  Swelling & Soreness - started with the new year booo. More soreness as my blood volume increases and ligaments start to soften and prep for the birth. Moved up a shoe size to accommodate the kankles. And "preggo face" is in full effect! Fatigue - mostly from the last 2 crazy months...but more specifically with the last 2 weeks of December. I fully over did it while we moved and had to take some rest and recovery days (or at least try to). Overall Feeling of just being OLD  lol...i'm not even old...I'm only 30. But being preggs at 30...

OOohhmmmyyyyyy liiiiiiffeeeee.... December ended up being one buuussyyyy crazy month!!!!  eh I feel like that's just the theme of our lives! But before the crazyness ( which was the latter part of the month )   we did get some nice family time :) So here's the catch up of the calm before the storm.  NEW CAR + CHRISTMAS LIGHTS Dec 4 We were finally able to pick up our brand used car :) Even though  I lost the minivan battle with Aljay, I'm really happy with the suburban. He did good. Plus, we got a good deal and Aljay's credit was repaired for free :) We had paid off a bunch of things almost 1 or 2 years ago and so the credit repair guy was able to dispute it to get it off his record. So it's comforting know that his credit score is going to shoot back up once the disputes go through in a few months.  After we picked up the car we went home and picked up Mom and Dad. For FHE we went through the Christmas light show at Provo Mall. It was ...
