Here's how I am going to focus my energy: Diet Low Carb Nutrient Dense/ whole foods Eating in the correct order (veggies then protein/fats then carbs) Stay! Hydrated! Exercise Movement - take walks at work, set a timer to remind me to get up and move Exercise - continue with the Mutu System Other Continue taking my meds! Monitor my blood sugar levels frequently Set another follow-up appointment for Sept or Oct For Aljay...... hoiiiii..this guy got his fair share of procedures to get done Eye procedure for his Keratoconus (ker-uh-toe-KOH-nus)  occurs when your cornea — the clear, dome-shaped front surface of your eye — thins and gradually bulges outward into a cone shape .

 Last year we didn't get to celebrate Sefa's birthday due to Salani being hospitalized. I felt so bad because he's such a deserving kid! This year we decided to spend the weekend having our own moments with him.  FRI - Father Son Outing They went to the movies and watched Thor. Then they movie hopped into Top Gun lol. They followed up with dinner at McDonalds lol.  SAT - Shopping W/ Aunty Brittany One of the things Sefa mentioned is that Leila always get to go with her Aunties. It's not entirely true, but she did get to go Birthday shopping with just them. This time around though, Leila begged to go with him. He's nice and allowed her to tag along hahah.

Viiga's Baptism

Our 3rd kid chose to be baptized a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints!  A week before his baptism, Britt and I took him out for his lil photo shoot lol. It was too funny. He's such a character and I love that his personality shows through in every picture. His baptism was a little different from our other's. He had a combined program with the 2 other kids in our ward who were getting baptized. It was definitely something new that us parents had to try figure out, but it ended up being such a beautiful program.  Leila and Sefa were his witnesses.  Afterwards, he was confirmed a member  of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints  and received the gift of the Holy Ghost  by the laying on of hands by his Bishop, Father, and Uncles.  I didn't get enough photos with everyone. I'm sure those pics are out there somewhere amongst all the family phones lol.  We chose to do a light lunch at the house. It was simple and yummy!! ...
