Pompous Princess




miss El Wallace is sweet, sexy, flirty sixteen today and I just wanted to post my sisterly birthday wishes for her here!
let's start with pompous--Elena likes to be her own boss. Hardly ever enjoying others' opinions, rules or orders. She likes to be the one who has voice and command in any situation and if not, raises her nose high in the air to show disapproval. Fusses when her hair hasn't been washed in a few days and HAS to look somewhat decent before going out. whether just to the nearby store, or far away mall. Loves shopping. Especially clothes. She'll easily spend 5,000 yen on a pair of jeans, and jump right into them for the next outing. Always wears some sort of jewelery. pretties herself up before carpet job, and says, "What? If I'm going to be working and getting dirty I at least wanna look somewhat decent!" true...true...
and as for the princess part. well I usually don't let her get away with being one. but today is an absolute exception! so I'm sure she's doing her best to make the most of it:) besides, isn't sixteen supposed to be the sweetest turning point other than 20?
Lainy is lots of other things too. she's beautiful. and she has a good sense of humor. lots of good memories made with her and I were of stupid things we used to do together. "kurchak?!" you get the idea Lainy. she's a great dancer and makes the yummiest chocolate cookies and apple cake! she's an all in all fun girl to be with, and always lets me use her make-up!
Happy birthday Lainy!! i'm sorry this year has to be spent up here in the middle of nowhere, but I hope that it doesn't stop you from having a good time and seeing new and exciting things out there for you this new year! may this year as a 16 year old bring lots of hunks, drinks, cool new teen priviledges...wink, and more. reach for the stars and fly beyond the planets. I know you can grab any dream and make it a reality if you put your whole heart into it! gambatte nezumi!! and... one more thing..
doshite kimi-o 16 ni nate shimatandaro??? kee hee hee. I love you!! Happy birthday my little, yet bigger than me sister!!

some canuck photos


okay so this computer is a bit strange...somehow it's not letting me find a way to get rid of this stupid underlined stuff... so I'll have to put up with this for now.
here's some photos of what's been up here so far! basically every day has been work for the guys. they're outside in the back with their axes and saws and going at the trees like wild men. in case you haven't already noticed in the photos of the boys with the tree-"trunks", they're getting a bit too much air up here. hahaha.
and by the photo of the pizza, you can now see why people here in Canada love to eat. how could they not? you buy a pizza, you gotta finish it all!
and just to squeeze in another mommy excited comment about my son's potty training. in the three days since starting potty training, he's done three poos and two pees! isn't that... worthy of jumping over?? I do! ahaha. such a shiner. Thank you Jesus.
aaaand, soon it will be my little sis, Lenlen's birthday!! sweet sixteen! so everyone who's forgotten, it's the 29th. so give her tons of love and make her feel like a total queen cus' having a birthday up here, with no friends since we just moved here, can be tough, especially if it's your SIXTEENTH! anyhow. please do send lots of cards and love:)
so that's basically all I really wanna or have to say at the moment, so enjoy your morning while I go jump into bed!!
Aishtemasu!!

a happy mommy post

After just getting the potty yesterday & only his third time being on it (he hates the thing), Jas did a poopoo in the potty!!
I don't think I've ever been so proud in my life. today was a very good day! & I am one happy mommy.
BUT! that might have been beginners luck. so any tips or ideas on how to get started & make it fun & effective, from any of you mothers would be gladly appreciated!

pray for him. he's a stubborn one.

NainaiBA

we have connection up here now! so I can try my best to keep this blog updated with lots of photos and weird ramble from my new country mind. nahahah. I'll talk about the trees..and bugs... and trees.. and giant food. ><
anyways, I gotta keep this one short. but to run you through a quick update on how life is fairing for us: Jason is back on schedule! thank you Jesus! me and Joe can finally sleep through the nights once more! hurrah! our house is still very very empty. but we are doing our best to get it filled!! I love our kitchen. it's big enough for me to do cartwheels around in it. isn't that awesome?! na. not that big. but big enough. it's my happy place up here. so if you are in the area, pop by and I promise I'd have a bunch of goodies on a plate for you:) everyone is alive and... alive. I think slowly but surely their adjusting to this whole new world. you gotta believe me, it's nothing like Japan. good ways and bad. I miss my buddies in Japan. but of course, you all know that!!! there's so many places I wanna take you, so many things I wanna buy you. but being across the world makes it so tough. so if you come over I'll fill up each part that I say I wanna do! so I guess I'll end here for now. maybe later I can try and upload some photos;) lots of love to you!! have sweetest dreams. muwa
