My good friend, Aysha, and her family are moving to Camarillo next week. We had our first playdate with all our kids. Hopefully not our last even though it will be more difficult to get together now. I didn’t even take a picture with her! Too busy snapping away at the kids but I did get one cute photo with baby Leilana, who is gorgeous and such a good baby.
Park fun photos:
We will miss you, Baltas!

We attended Jim & Grace’s baby shower over the weekend in super windy Norco, CA. It was fun seeing my pseudo brother in pink. LOL. We didn’t stay long since dummy me double booked us but it was a great party. Wonderful food, beautiful decor and a lot of good people who truly loved Jim & Grace…just as I do…
Us with the beautiful and glowing Grace.
I love Glee. Quote of the last episode that kills me came from Puck:
“Are you questioning my badassness? Did you see my guns?”
But this post isn’t about Glee. It’s about the word ‘ass’. My sister who will remain nameless (not Van) called me a kiss ass based off my touchy, feely posts about parenting. I’ll have you know that my parents do not read my blog so I’m not kissing ass. I’m just reflecting. Back to the case in point. I hate being called a kiss ass. And it’s not the meaning of kiss ass that bugs me as much as the word ‘ass’ is in it. So I told the nameless sister,
“Don’t call me anything with ass in it.”
Being that she is a smartASS, she asked, “How about badass?” I said, “No, it still has ass it it. What part of ‘don’t call me anything with ass in it didn’t you understand’?”
Why would I want to be a badass? By definition, two wrongs do not make a right:
Definition of Bad:
Bad – having undesirable or negative qualities
Definition of Ass (my favorite from Google query: “define ass”):
Ass – buttocks: the fleshy part of the human body that you sit on

I was going through my old blog…my first blog on Xanga.com. And I found this and thought two things:
1. Bao’s cute.
2. Can’t believe it’s been two years…still miss him.

i wonder if heaven’s got a doggy ghetto…
when we brought you home, you smelled like shit. you continued smelling that way for 10 years. you peed on my leg. you waited until everyone was around you so you could lay the worst farts. you dutch ovened our tent when we went camping. you eat crickets. you massacred a full family of opposums. you have more baby pictures than i do. you pooped in anh hai mike’s car for revenge. you wouldnt do tricks unless i threatened to tell dad on you. you fake injuries. you chewed up an entire couch. you’ve always wanted to kill my bunny…
yet i miss your barbarian ass! to ten years of love, laughter and unbearable odor! props to my dog mickey.
Cute story about growth and independence.
Yesterday I went to meet the Le family at the park. We were playing at the park until about 7:20pm, my kids started to melt down so we decided to go home. I was just talking to Nathan (he’s 18 months now?) and asked him, “Do you want to help Di Thi push your cousins?” Well, he did. He helped me all the way to my car. LOL. I had to walk so slow because I didn’t want to run over his little feet. At one point, Hong saw Aidan crying and asked Nathan to let go and I just said, “Oh no, I asked for it so I have to walk slow and let him see it through until he doesn’t want to do it anymore.” And he did see it through and was so proud. What a big boy (already…).
It’s amazing. I got to see this kid grow from birth until now and I’m so amazed by him, by nature and by the nurture he gets from his parents.
It took about 5 minutes to get to the car. Good thing it’s a small park. LOL.
If you already received a call from our mother than this is old news now…LOL.
Van Ngo and Eric Oberly won the US Magazine Dream Wedding contest! Woohoo! It’s so exciting to be related to someone who wins one of these! I’ve been having a great time playing the video over and over again so I can tell my sister what a nerd she is!
Hahaha. Seriously, I’m so happy for you, Van. Now tell Mom to get off the phone and go back to work!
Congratulations, James Anthony Stefanovic!
Class of 2009!
On Saturday, Tina, Bao and I drove to San Bernadino to attend Jimmy’s graduation. We grabbed a few McCafe (only to throw them away when we got there since they did not allow beverages in the coliseum…a small price to pay for an air-conditioned arena.)
Mike and the kids eventually caught up with us at the Stefanovics for a kick@$$ party thrown by one of the cutest and coolest wives around (how did Jim get so lucky??).
Thanks, Jim & Grace for having us over. Congratulations!
Not really. This is what happens when you forget your memory card and have to rely on a crappy cellphone…LOL.
Uncle Steve and Aunt Jenny took the kids on their very first trip to Disneyland over the weekend! We had a little resistance on Aidan’s part but once he got there, he was very happy (as the pictures show). It was a very hot day and their crazy Mommy put them in pants and socks and even packed jackets! There was a point that Steve and Jenny were looking for a change of clothes since they got so sweaty and pulled out the jackets…at this point Steve thought I was crazy. LOL.
The kids left at 11:30 and came home at 6pm. Mommy and Daddy got to spend some time with grown-ups. We had sushi at Kaisen Kaiten with Roger and Hong followed by the Sprinkle binge mentioned in an earlier post. It was fun but we after we got home, we missed them like crazy.
Big thank you to Steve and Jenny for taking the kids out. Venturing to Disneyland on a weekend with twin infants — you two pretty much can do anything now. *wink*
My sister, Van, and her fiance, Eric are a finalist for US Magazine’s ‘Win Your Dream Wedding’ contest. I think it’s awesome she’s going this far so vote for them! Nothing like a free wedding in this economy, huh?!
