at work

in the past couple days people have finally been giving me the 'you're pregnant' smile and a hug... or people coming over to my desk to chat about the wee fetus... and i just have to laugh... cause i would have done the same thing... first questioning if 'so and so' is indeed pregnant for a month or two to myself to save me from the embarrassment of 'excuse me, i just had a big lunch'...that would suck...

so now, the word is out at work, and it was the boy in my belly that told.

so i have a few more belly pictures from hawaii that my sister betsy and mom took that i just love.

have a great labor day weekend... i'm taking a nap! xoxo mollymalia

she may be small

but she has a huge personality.

my little penelope has found her little spot in the valley of my pregnancy. every time i have her out she snuggles right in. i love it! she'll ride along there the whole time she is out and even after an hour nap i'll wake to find she is still there! i hope that i don't squash her one of these days!

today jord

had mainland fever.

she started to cry for hawaii... um, thats okay jord, i do it to!photo by betsy

here are some pictures... most of these, if not all, are courtesy of my sister... i, in most cases lately forgot my camera when we went places. but ashley, my sister-in-law, has a few posts of things that we did there if you would like to see more pics.

a moms proud moment

okay, so its been a while since i have blogged,
sorry... been relaxing!
but now we are back in the desert and
trying to pick up our lost daily routine...
i'll up dated you all on our trip in pictures when i get them all together...
but until then i really need to share something with you...usually when i fly i say little prayer as the plane takes off...
as we were 'taxiing' to the run way in hawaii on our way back
i noticed kasey saying a little prayer (he hates to fly).
jord asked what he was doing, i told her and she just sat there
and watched him.
a couple minutes later i heard some whispering, i thought that she
was just talking to kasey but looked over anyway.
she had her arms folded and eyes closed saying a little
prayer of her own.
i motioned to kasey to check her out...
he got this big grin on his face and just sat there and watched
her until she was done.
i loved it.

only 5 more days

until we are on a plane bound for 'my' island!

i'm so stoked to be able to go home for a couple of weeks...
i miss my family tons being out here in ootah.
i just wish that i would be able to surf this time around.
maybe i'll sneak in a few waves. don't tell the doc...

or kasey!i know this picture is not what you would think from hawaii... but i really remember doing this when i was like 12 right after hurricane iniki with all the rubbish that rolled up on the beach. among doing this, digging large holes to play in, putting crabs in my dads piko (bellybutton), body surfing and pretty much bringing the beach home with me in my suit when i was a kid... i am soooo glad that i grew up in hawaii! i wouldn't have had it any other way! after i took kasey out there the first time he told me that now he understands why i am the way i am and why i'm always telling him that i'm on hawaiian time. never in a hurry, and always late! i love it!
