Allea is going through this stage where she has this squished up face smile. It is the best thing ever. With each big smile she is yelling, "Cheese" through her clinched teeth. Adorable.  In case you don't believe me here are some pics to prove it.  Riding the Train. Cheese on top of Uncles shoulders                                                         Random everyday

The first pic shows my ultra cute daughter dancing, laughing adorably while carrying a backpack. The reality was she was screaming, falling and trying to get it off.  :) Facebook will never know!!

 It's October, and the weather has been so fall like. We loaded up the kids and decided to head to the park and do some Halloween decorating.  The weather was fantastic, the kids had fun, and the pumpkins turned out great.  Allea and Yo'sea painting away.  Taking a pretzel break.  Our Happy group Allea washing her brush

Yo has been going to a Native Hoop Dance workshop for the last two weeks.  She is only two so I didn't expect  any fancy dance moves or even for her to listen well.  I did  however want her to be exposed to the vibe of the entire dance.  But to my surprise she really liked it. She did her 2yr old best to follow along.  Allea and I had fun watching her. Then when we would get home Yo would ask

There is something about hearing the words of the Prophets, Eating good food, and having family around that can just uplift a person.  This weekend we had Jacob and Anna(Jacobs Fiance) with us both days watching General Conference from our living room. Then on Sunday we had my parents, Vee's family, My friend Callies family, the Kerrs including our awesome friend Rachel plus the love birds over.

Seriously why do the girls even keep me around?  This morning I woke up, walk into the girls room and this is what I found. Allea enjoying a morning bottle provided by her big sister Yo'sea. This isn't the first time something like this has happened. The other day I found them both in the crib enjoying mandarin oranges, another time I found them with Cheerios.  I guess I should be thankful that

Yo'sea has been getting "The End" and "Amen" mixed up. For instance, when we finish reading a book, she will sometimes say "Amen!" and at lunch the other day while blessing the food she, said, "The  End" Ha! It cracks me up each time. When I'm laughing, Yo'sea  gives me this "WHY is she laughing" look. It's ok to laugh at your kids. Honest. Amen!

   So what is it about family photos that send your children into hysterics?Children that are usually full of giggles and smiles, and look around with their head held high. Change. Instead become these children that look  down, to the side, or at the ceiling. They look anywhere BUT at the camera. If by some chance of   both look at the camera, neither of these sweet children will be smiling.

So it is a tradition to give children a snow bath to wash away all the jealousy, naughtiness and what not of the past year, and CLEAN them up for the next year. We had a nice big snow storm today, so we thought no time like the present to give her a snow bath. She was so excited about the snow. I asked if she wanted to take a bath in the snow. She readily agreed.  I mean it makes tons of sense

Yes I want to stay youthful, vibrant, and "In" for as long as possible. I don't want to be "OLD" or thought of as "Past my Prime' So yea, going back to college should keep me "with it" and youthful right?  Well, sisters! I gotta tell you nothing is making me feel more old, decrepit and on my last legs, then staying up all night to study for finals.  Three, cheers for education! (BLAH@!)

Pitcure this, I'm doing my Mom duties making dinner in the kitchen when I hear Baby Allea scream, I run into the living room where I am met by a wide eyed Yo'sea Yo'sea - Allea crying Mom Me - Why is Allea crying? Yo'sea- I bite her Me- Oh no, that isn't very nice. Now what? Yo'sea- (to Allea) Sorry Lea, sorry owie. (Turns to me) Time out (Then walks to the time-out area) All there is left for

I am recently in charge of a 4-plex and we have an opening in one of the apartments that we need to get field.  I advertised on Craigslist and some other places and for ever REAL person inquiring about the apartment there are at least 3 Scam artist.

I was out with the girls, and for not apparent reason I thought we needed a ROMO GIRL photo. As I look at these photos they crack me up. Don't my girls understand that you are suppose to look right at the camera and FAKE SMILE there little hearts out? Obviously they need some lessons in being photographed.  I would like to point out that I seems to smile and look directly at the camera each and

So our oldest Kidlet is sick. :( Poor Yo'sea had a fever yesterday before our ward party and trick-o-treating. We didn't have the heart to make her stay home because she has been so excited to "get kangy" since we had a practice Trick-o-Treating at Joseph's school earlier in the week.  So I did what ever good mother would do, and I gave her extra cold and fever medicine so she could enjoy the

Since, I've left higher learning I've totally focused on being a Mother  and a wife. The days of staying up all night, going to parties, music and mayhem are long gone. As they should be right? Well, lately I have found myself, getting interested in new music, style, joining groups, doing projects, all sorts of things. Acutally right now, I just got off of iTunes, with a list of downloads i want

 We went for a little family outting today to a Country Farm Fair in Payson, Ut. It wasn't that big but it had plenty for out little family to do. Latley, Yo'sea has been so obsessed with "CHOO CHOO Trains" so we had to take a ride.  Here are pics of our tractor girls. Maybe they can help Granpa Chee next year.  Happy Pumpkin faces!  Happy Scare Crow  SCARY Scare crow Our Future

I sat my two girls on the Lazy boy to watch some cartoons while I made dinner. While in the kitchen I hear Yo'sea yell, "No Allea, no no Allea. MOM! Allea, my blankie! Mom, Mom Allea my blankie."  I walk into the living room to see an upset Yo'sea trying to get her blanket back and a smiley faced Allea with her baby power grip full of Yo'sea's blanket.  I loosen Allea's grip (still smiling) and

 This year for General Conference, my family decided to all hang out on Temple Square, with a picnic lunch and just listen to the speakers. My Mom, actually had some tickets to conference, which she let Joseph and I use, so we enjoyed listening to everyone speak in person. I never get tired of how then entire conference building filled with people goes completely silent when the Prophet and his

So after 8 yrs I'm back in College. Yep, I never finished up the first time around, so I decided why not try going back to school while married with two kids.  That has to be way easier then going to school while single and having no one else to worry about but myself. Right?  Well so far so good, I'm caught up in all of my classes. I've only missed class, a few times once for stay up to late (

If you read my last post, then you know my Mom wanted and iPad for her birthday. But on her big day we presented her with an iPad Cake instead.  I can't remember her REALLY wanting something and asking for it.  So, all of us kids and my Dad decided to pitch in and get her an iPad. Now we did order the iPad BEFORE her birthday. But it wasn't' going to ship until AFTER her birthday. So for her

My Mom had her birthday on the 1st of July. Since the iPad came out, my Mom has been telling us that she wants an iPad for her birthday. As far as I can remember, I've never heard my Mom really WANT something. The iPad doesn't have a price tag that fits in any of our budgets but we really wanted to something for her since it was her birthday. So we did the next best thing. We made her an iPad

Yo'sea has the most softest skin, I asked her what her secret was and she told me to use a Yogurt facial mask regularly. First, covered your face and hair with yogurt. Then you can then eat the rest of what is left in the container.  I have yet to try this, but I can tell you Yo'sea's face is radiant. So it must work!Happy Moisturizing!

Joseph has been working a lot of long hours lately, leaving Yo'sea and I with tons of Mommy/Daughter time.  Although we miss Joseph, we have been trying to make the most of our time together. We have been going to the park, cooking,  playing dress up, dancing in the living room and even shopping.  Today while I was looking for a Birthday Present for a family member, we came across a Photo Booth.

Today we had Stake Conference, our Stake is 45 min. away from were we live. Since, we were already far from home, we decided to do some exploring.  The  Hualaupi Mountains aren't far from the Stake Center so we thought that would be a great place to check out. Plus, they had some snow up there. I don't mind being a desert girl in the winter, but I have missed snow.      Once we got there Yo'sea

So I'm basically done with Yo'sea's Bird Dance dress. I just need to add some ribbon to the bottom of the skirt. The Bird Dance, isn't a Navajo Dance, or a Pow wow Dance, it is a dance that Natives here in the area do. Yo'sea's Grandma is Hualapai so I thought it was fitting for her to learn the dance.  PLus, I just want her to get use to dancing and being proud of her Native heritage.  So what

I wouldn't of thought I was one to believe in censorship when it came to quality reading materials. Seriously, I've read most of the classic BANNED books, and didn't think twice about them.  You would think, being such a free thinker, I would never try and CENSOR a book for my child, and at the very least BAN the book from my home. But have you read this book? Have you seen this book on sale at

Aug. 09 was a big month for us. Joseph was promoted to the MANAGER of his store. Which is something we have been wanting for a long time. The down side was that he got his manager fired, so that left him managing a store by HIMSELF. Which left Joseph putting in some LONG hours over the past few months while they hired on someone else.

Recently, I have been having some really vivid dreams. When i get a chance I tell Joseph all about it. But someday's he is out the door before I can lay the stories at his feet. So for now I thought I would start keeping a sort of Dream Journal/Blog, and see if sifting through my dreams in this way I can some how makes sense of what my brain is saying.

The week of the 20th there is a Pow Wow in our area. Joseph and I have been trying to design a dress for Yo'sea to wear to the Pow Wow. Yo'sea  is of two tribes Yaqui and half Navajo. Since Pow Wow's are more a Plains Indian inspired gathering and adopted by  all other tribes.  I wanted to make her a dress that would represent the dance of her choice but still have Dashes of her Tribe to let

In the summer it is soo unbelievable hot here, that Joseph and I got use to shedding all of our outer clothing and walking around in our Skivvy's, while in the house. Since that time, we got into the habit of running around in the house in our underclothes. Which isn't that much of a problem, being that we are in the privacy of our home, and Yo'sea is pretty young still. But there is one

So my wonderful cousin Dezi , did a review on her Blog. It was fun to read, how her year went. Plus, like her I think it will end up being a great way to compare years to come. So, here I go..January- We had our first family outing on New years Day. We went out to the Grand Canyon to see snow. Also, Yo'sea was blessed that first Sunday. February- Enjoyed going to the Grand Canyon Sky Walk for

So it has been raining here for the last week. We haven't seen as much of the AZ Sun, as we are use too. I'm not complaining, it was nice to have desert showers, and nice cool days. But on the first hint of sunlight Yo'sea and went for a little walk around the complex. She had so much fun checking out rain puddles, washing rocks, playing in the mud, and just being a kid outside. I loved how she

So I spent the summer complaining about the heat of Bullhead City. It seriously gets HOT here. But, since Oct. I haven't complained one bit. I love the winter weather here. It does get windy at times, but I can handle that. Most days are in the High 60's and Mid 70's and just great! Today was such a nice day, I couldn't help but get the family out of the house to enjoy a bit of the outdoors. We

Yo'sea is up and walking, and with that walking she is now exploring all new area's of the house. One of which she particularly enjoys is the Bathroom. She loves to play in the toilet, to make confetti out of the toilet paper, and throw the contents of the drawers all over the place.Because her new playground grosses me out! I now do my best to keep the door to the bathroom closed. Plus, it is

Once upon a time in my life. I used to do a Mixed Tape/CD (Tapes are the items that existed before CD's. CD's are the things that stored music before .Mp3 players) for every year of my life. Just songs that weren't exactly from that year, but songs that were significant to me that year. I loved going back to listen to those mixes because they brought back, feelings, peoples, events, places,

So my husband, asked me what I wanted for my birthday coming up in Dec. He asked me to make a list then he would surprise me from off the list. So I went to the computer, ready to make a bookmarked folder of "Things I want" and i was stumped. I can't think of ANYTHING. Seriously, I kept thinking of things we NEED for the house, Yo'sea, or the new baby. I couldn't think of something for me.

Our Halloween was a busy day, we first drove out to Peach Springs, to have a Halloween Picnic with the Hualapai church branch out there. Then back here at home we went to the Church TRUNK or TREAT. There were soo many kids, all of them dressed up. Yo'sea had so much funjust watching all the kids, run around in there costumes. At the church, they had tons of games, food, and even a Haunted house.

Hello, Everyone Joseph and I FINALLY have a Sealing Date, we are VERY excited. We feel like we have been waiting a long time for this. We are getting Sealed in the Las Vegas Temple, on Oct 17th, 2009 at 4pm. We thought it was fitting to send out this Digital Invitation, on Joseph's YEAR date of being a Member of the Church Of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I have enjoyed the blessing of

A month before the activity they handed us our kits, told us to use our imagination, and go for it.Joseph and I were busy all month, so as time ticked away, our AWESOME idea's had to become less awesome. There just wasnt' enough time to make what we wanted. Before you know it, it was a the night before and we had

I have been making hair clip's for Yo'sea. Which I am proud of, but I have no place to store them. I have tried a drawer, but they get all thrown together and it is hard to find the clip I want, when I want it. I saw this frame idea online, and I decided to make it.Here are a few pics, of the process.Step One- Find an Old Frame,cut some material to fit, and then Mod Podge, the fabric to the

Names can be pretty significant at times. When I was born, my parents were surprised to get a baby girl instead of the baby boy, they THOUGHT, they were getting. So they started toying around with girl names. I guess I was nearly "Gayleen Begay" ! Instead, they decided to name me Joleen after my Dad. They had decided that a baby boy would be a Joe Jr, why not just make a feminine form of "

I'm addicted, seriously addicted. I have decided to makeYo'sea her baby food, instead of buy it. I love that fact that I know exactly what is going into my child's food. Plus, it is soo easy, and fun. It helps out that she LOVES the food too. So far we have only tried Zucchini, Yams and Carrots. Basically, all I do is,Boil the veggie, until very tender. I don't add any seasonings or oils. Just

The Library here at Bullhead city, has alot of fun activities. Movies every Tuesday night, Activities every Saturday at Noon, Reading clubs, Contests and all sort of activities mostly geared to children. I know Yo'sea is young, but we like to go to the Saturday Noon activities. They are usually family oriented, and Yo'sea loves to see all of the children.Today's activity was entitled "Fantastic

I love looking at her pictures.She's starting a side business for her photography. She's doing it all for MEGA CHEAP prices. I'm totally on-board with that.AND--she's giving her first "business" photo shoot away. I

Joseph and I have been trying to keep "bad" food from Yo'sea's menu. We want her ingesting strictly "GOOD" stuff. We only give her Mothers milk, and her baby cereal. We have condoned a tiny taste of banana from her Aunty Naco. But that was about it.UNTIL....

We had two of Joseph's nieces staying with us for a couple of days. After they were dropped off with us, they realized that they would have to attend Church with us on Sunday.Since, they weren't prepared for going to Church, they didn't pack any Sunday clothes. Joseph and I got the bright idea that we would go to the Goodwill to find them outfits to wear to church. They immediately stuck up

Yo'sea has had a lot of first in the last few week. One, she is eating baby cereal now. She loves it, and does a great job at keeping the food in her mouth. Two Yo'sea learned to turn over onto her stomach. She gets all happy when she turns over, then she realizes she can't turn back over, and is stuck on her stomach. At which point, she starts to cry. :) Three she got to meet her Aunt Leanna

Seriously, in my dream, I even had a clever title for the blog.This morning, I wake up and go straight to the computer to put all of these insightful, humorous words out for everyone to read. I sit down open up the blog post and *NOTHING* I'm blank. I can't remember what I was going to write. When I try to bring

After much consideration (I swear, I have asked EVERYONE's advice). Joseph and I have started to feed Yo'sea Rice cereal a few times a week. The first week went fantastic. She was getting use to the spoon. She was swallowing, and openning up her mouth at just the right times..Then we had a lil'trip to visit Aunty Naco. On this trip Yo'sea got a taste of Banana (VERY small taste). Since that time

Yo'sea has been hanging around us for the last three months. You would think she would start to feel like the third wheel. BUT, noooo. She decided she was up for the challenge, and I think she ended up stealing MY man, and I have become the third wheel! She is sneaky! If you ever hang out with us, I suggest you keep an eye on Yo'sea and a hand on your man.:) I'm joking around, She is a joy. It is

Navajo Baby Laugh Party Defined: "As weeks pass, adults wait and listen for the child's first chuckle — a sign of joy that signals his desire to join his earth family and community. In Navajo culture, it is believed that a child assumes the qualities of the person who witnesses, or coaxes, his first giggle. (So it might be wise to keep your less noble relations away!)

So I have been feeling the food storage bug. I have heard since i was child to get a food storage going. While living with my parents I didn't bother, while in college I knew BYU had enough to sustain all of us going to school, while single I knew I could just eat Ramen Noodles for a year if I needed too, while first married I thought, "where can I store food while we are in a small apartment"

Have you heard that song by Phish. The one that talks about, "When your there I sleep lenghtwise, when your gone I sleep sideways in my bed"? Well, I was thinking about that song, and it is true. I sleep differently depending on who is in my bed with me. I decided to illustrate my sleeping patterns for you. (This isn't my bed, and yes this my personal doodle talent)Joseph and I in

There is something relaxing about hanging clothes up on a clothesline.Maybe because I'm outside, or that the lifting and pinning of clothes is a nice easy stretch. Possible, it helps me feel like I am getting something accomplished because I can see each item I hang leave the basket. What ever it is. I really enjoy hanging laundry to Dry.

What is Frugality? Well This is what Wikipedia has to sayCommon strategies of frugality include the reduction of waste, curbing costly habits, suppressing instant gratification by means of fiscal self-restraint, seeking efficiency, avoiding traps, defying expensive social norms, embracing free (as in gratis) options, using barter, and staying well-informed about local circumstances and both

So there is a wonderful place called Mr D's here in Kingman. It is an Old Fashion burger joint on the original ROUTE 66. I guess a couple of years ago, Oprah came in the restaurant and fell in love with there Carmel Rootbeer (homemade on site). Since then the restraunt has been a big hit to those doing the trek on Route 66.Joseph's Niece, Christina, and I decided to check out what all the fuss

It is interesting what was scary as a child, but now that your an adult it is no longer a fear.For instance, when I was young, I was so afraid that there was something (a monster, a person, child eating werewolf) under my bed, that I wouldn't get out of bed to kneel down to say my prayers. Instead would kneel on top of my bed to say my prayers.I also thought that there was something living in the

To have a New Years Brunch of Menudo, with Grandma and Grandpa Romo. :)Grandpa Tacho and Menudo FixingsThen we took a drive out to the Havasupi Reservation, to check out there portion of the Grand Canyon.

So my lil'girl is magic.She has this uncanny abilityto put people to sleep.Don't belive me?Here is some PROOF!Ha, ha, I asked Naco and Joseph to put Yo'sea to sleep and what happen? SHE put THEM to sleep. If that isn't one gifted Newborn I don't know what is. :) Ha, ha,Actually, Joseph stopped home for lunch to see his lil'love. Which I was thankful for because she wasn't going to sleep for me.

Sometimes I wonder if Wal-mart is worth it.I know they are suppose to have some of the best deals out there.But, the store is always over crowded, the service is poor, the selection isn't always up to pare, and the lines are way to long.I ran into Walmart today to grab a specific piece of fabric, it took me ONE HOUR to get, 6 yards of fabric. That is just to much of my life gone, trying to get a

You never know how accustom or dependent you are on something until it is gone.On Christmas day, that evening. There was a HUGE storm that hit us. It was COLD, the wind was howling, and then it started to Hail. With the Hail, and wind, beating the roof and sides of the home it made me so thankful for Shelter. I couldn't imagine being out in that weather, especially with a lil'one. Right when I

We loved the Hospital staff, not only did we love them but they really liked us. Actually they liked out lil'one. I guess that's what happens when you see tons of bald babies, and we bring them a chunky lil'one with TONS of hair. Something interesting, I had two different sets of nurse's tell us that we were the topic of conversation at the hospital. It took me by surprise both times. When I

Yo'sea is already the apple of our eye. We love her so much. Bringing a lil'spirit to the world really is amazing.I can't complain about the labor

Yesterday I did a load of laundry. Since it was nice outside, I decided to hang the clothes on the clothesline outside to dry. So I walk out there with a basket full of whites, and I hear a breathing sound. I look down and there is a CAT, wilded eyed but not moving, and has a labored breath. I moved a bit closer, knowing all the cats in the area are wild, I was ready for it bolt. But, it

I got that Sewing bug again. For some reason I didn't want to BUY those Newborn mittens, that are needed to keep the baby from scratching there face. I just thought they looked so simple to make, I didn't want to spend money on them. So this morning I made my first pair. I need to add a bit of ribbon but they are basically finished.Who knew I would be one of those, " I can make this, why buy it"

I thought I would give you all a break from reading about my Cervix. Your very welcome!1. Real tree or Artificial? Growing up we had a real tree. In my married life we have yet to get a tree. Last year we just made one with string, because we had christmas early with my family and it just felt like we already celebrated. This year, we are all focused on baby and haven't thought about a tree.2.

I am not in a BIG hurry to have this lil'one. I am just anxious to see her.   From the Ultrasound yesterday they estimate she weighs almost 8 pounds, which is very managable. :)   The doc says I'm dilated to a 3 possibly a 4.  Since last night I have had back pains and menstral cramp like pains. Which is great. I did talk to Vileena's lil'girl , Louise today. Ten days ago I asked her when I was

So as of last week I was dilated to a 2, and having a cramp like feeling on and off through out the day. Then Friday night, no cramps and all day Saturday nothing. My parents decided to come into town on Sunday, so they could meet the lil'one (hoping I would have her) but it is Monday morning and so far nothing. (shrug) The cramp like feeling is back. I keep waiting for it to progress and get

For some reason, when I am using the bathroom in a public setting, like a store. I always go for the Handicap stall.Why? (shrug) Maybe it has something to do with my own lil'room in the huge department store.Or maybe, because I kinda feel like it is used less then other bathrooms. That may not be true.Who knows, go figure. All I know is I like the big stall the best!

My parents made me a delicious Healthy dinner (Thanks!), Joseph and the boys fried me a Rabbit.

Living here in the Desert there aren't alot of Fall colors around.But we happen to find a huge supply of fall leaves outside of the Page Stake Center. The kids couldn't resist, playing with the leaves. Fall Leaves are so much fun, and FREE to play with! Three Cheers for Fall in AZ

I have been having the feeling of cramps lately. So it has Joseph and I excited that POSSIBLY the baby will be on the way sooner then later. Well, after a night of me feeling a constant cramp like hurt. Joseph left to work that day very anxious. So I had planned on going to run errands right at 8 am to get it out of the way. But of course I got delayed because life is life. So I left around 11

So we had alot going on this Thanksgiving weekend. We had a HUGE extended family Thanksgiving dinner, a Funeral, a baptism, Family photos, and a birthday dinner for me. Yes being around family has been wonderful, and I have pics of all of the above. But first of all I would love to show off our family photos.

This week has been a long week(Yes, It's only Wednesday). I have been running around trying to get things organized for a new baby, preparing for my visit to Utah on my own and Joseph's Camping Trip this weekend, and preparing for our HUGE Family Camping Trip for Thanksgiving. Which are all fun events, but it takes alot of preparations. So yesterday evening after running around doing errands

So after church we were asking the girls about how they liked class and all of that. Just gently strolling down the halls to the car.

I recently have found some time to start reading again. I have written a few reviews on books on GOOD READS . It was fun to go down memory lane and add some books I haven't read in a while, and look up book reviews by friends. If you have any "Good Read" recommendations I would love to hear them, especially since it's getting cold, and I love curling up to a good book when its cold outside. :)

So we are in the middle of digging up part of Joseph's Grandmothers Septic tank. BLAH! Over the years the earth has shifted the pipes. So the pipes need to be dug up and relaid. It is defiantly a work in progress.I am 8 months pregnant and digging and I aren't friends. Plus, Joseph only has an hour of sunlight when he gets home from work. So we are SLOWLY getting it all dugged up. While we were
