I have always heard that when kids get older they will tell you they hate you. Okay I'm thinking this is fine because it's part of the teenage hormone thing. Well my daughter, Hana who just turned 3 told me those 3 words you never want to hear "I hate you". We were at gymnastics watching Ricky and I told her not to do something she looks at me, point at me and says those 3 evil words. I couldn't believe what I heard. This definitely didn't come from my precious little girl. So I asked her again and sure enough those were the words. If i'm getting this at 3 what am I going to get at 13.
I still have my sweet little boy whose 5 1/2 and would never dream of saying those words to me.
Amazing how different they are.

HANA'S 3RD BIRTHDAY PARTY
This year I have decided to keep Hana's birthday party small. It just makes it a lot easier and a lot more budget friendly. We invited the people that mean the most to her and us. The original plan was to have her birthday party at Collins park. It was a perfect idea. The kids could play outside the adults could converse. Well the day of the party it was a high of 61 degrees and sunny. Which sounds perfect right? No! There was a blizzard wind with it. Houston hardly ever has high winds!! Big Ricky had to convince me that the very cold wind just wasn't good for the kids nor all the decorations. The party was moved to my house. I had 2 hours to get everything ready. Thankfully it was a small party, maybe 8 different families.
As much as I didn't want to have it at the house, I have to admit the party was a success. The kids had a lot of fun. The irony of it was that the kids played outside almost the entire party. The adults stayed inside where it was nice and warm.
Hana had an amazing birthday.
To My baby girl Hana,
Wow I can't believe you're already 3 years old. I remember it just like yesterday bringing you home. You were so tiny and helpless. It has been amazing watching you grow into this spit fire girl you are. Even though you are petite you sure are tough and can definitely take care of your self. I think when God made little girls out of sugar and spice you received an extra dose of spice. You are definitely a strong willed child. You learn very quickly how to manipulate a situation. But at the same time you are extremely affectionate and say the sweetest things. You are also a very talented little girl, just like your daddy. Everything seems to come easily to you. I love how your big brother, Ricky is your comfort. As long as he's around you everything seems to be okay for you. I love the way you make us laugh with your comments and actions.
You're only 3 and already have such a huge personality. Daddy and I are extremely proud of you. I wish you could stay my little Hana forever but I know one day you will grow up to be this amazing woman.
I am so thankful and blessed that you are in my life. My life has been enriched and happier with you in it. Yes, we do have bad days but it doesn't matter because you are in my life. I love you and your brother more than anything in this world. You guys are what makes my life complete. I love you my precious little girl.
Love always,
Mommy
HANA CELEBRATES HER 3RD BIRTHDAY AT GRANDPARENTS
For Hana's actual birthday on March 19 we were in Corpus Christi visiting Hana and Ricky's grandparents. We made sure to have a small celebration for her. She picked out a chocolate cake that was yummy. She was in heaven because she received a couple of presents. It was a small and good celebration. I can't believe my baby is 3!!
SPRING BREAK 2010
Wow it has been a long time since I have blogged. We have just been busy and non stop. This Spring Break went by super fast. We also stayed extremely busy.
The 1st Saturday of spring break we met True Vine Fellowship up at The Huntsville State Park. They camped for 4 days or so, but I thought 1 nice sunny day was good enough for me. The nights were cold!!!!
It was a gorgeous day. We got there around lunch time. First thing the kids did was go swimming in the lake. They didn't anticipate on the water being so cold. But they were all troopers and got right in. Later we fished. Big Ricky caught about 8 perch in a very short time. Hana and lil Ricky were great at holding the fish and letting them go.
There was so much food. Especially meat. There are no words to describe how much food there was. I think it could of fed a small village for weeks.
At night the kids made smores by the campfire. Some of the adults played volleyball. Yes, I was one of these. If you know me, than you know I have no athletic talent. For the most part the guys hogged the ball but I did get a few victory shots.
It was an amazing day. It was beautiful, we were with amazing christian people, the food was amazing and we all just had a blast.
Big Ricky is really interested in WWII pilots. So by chance Hooks airport was displaying some of the actual WWII bomber planes on Sunday. It was very interesting to see the size of the planes and just the technology back than. I can't believe how much everything has advanced. To walk through the planes you could almost feel what an adrenaline high it is. Let's not forget the fear that must have been going through these guys as they were out on a mission. These men were definitely brave.
The Houston Rodeo was also in town so we decided to take the kids on Monday. It's a neat experience seeing all the agriculture and letting the kids learn first hand. The kids also had a great time at the carnival. They were more interested in doing the carnival walk throughs than the actual rides. Lil Ricky's favorite was the trampoline where your harnessed and jump as high as you want. It was a great day for the kids.
From Tuesday to Friday the kids and I spent the time in Corpus Christi visiting my parents. The kids had a good time going to the beach. The water was still too cold, at least for me and the kids. But you would be surprised how many people got in. For the most part we caught pretty good weather. Hana also turned 3 on that Friday so we celebrated her birthday with grandparents before we made the 4 hour car drive back home. It's always good seeing my family. The kids love spending time with them and Ricky and Babi (grandma) have a very strong bond.
Like I said Spring Break went extremely fast but it was fun!
