Since her teeth and very sensitive she is afraid to eat... she hasn't eaten dinner and she is also afraid drinking her juice or water because she said "it is going to hurt my teeth". I feel awful and guilty... I am sure I could have prevented her from falling!
Ouch!!
Since it was such a warm day Nevaeh and I were outside getting ready to go swimming, I asked her to take her clothes off so I could put sunblock on her. She went straight to the chair and began to climb on... before I knew it her little arm gave out and she hit the floor. Unfortunately, her teeth landed first!! I saw it all in slow motion but couldn't do a thing to prevent her from falling!! She hit the concrete so hard, I thought her two front teeth were going to fall out! I picked her up and I was scared to look at her (I am very squeamish), when I finally did all I saw was blood... I quickly called our dentist and was at his office in less than 5 minutes!! He checked her out and she got her first x-ray. He told us that her little teeth should heal on their own, but they will be a little tender.
Giddy
Do you remember that giddy feeling you would get when you started dating your significant other? Those butterflies in your tummy right before you went out on a date. Or just the feeling you would get when looking at him/her.... WELL I got those silly giddy feelings back!!
Jacob and I were sitting in the backyard and he said "go get the scissors", I already knew what he meant so I looked at him and said "once we do it there is NO going back". He nodded to confirm he understood. Well, I got the scissors and proceeded to chop all of his hair off!!
He is currently sporting a "Michael Scofield" look which brought me back to our dating days!! He seriously shaved 10 years off, easy!
At first I was a little apprehensive since I have known him "with hair" for 7 out of the 9 years we have been together but he looks better than ever... I am really glad he did, I feel like a young college kid all over again!!

Happy Anniversary
Yesterday was our 4 year wedding anniversary! We were blessed enough to be able to spend most of the day together!!
We also watched our wedding video with Nevaeh who continued to ask where she was. She also took it upon herself to cover my face most of the time and yelled "don't kiss her" or "don't dance with her"... I don't think I have ever meet a little girl who was more in love with her daddy!
Honey... thank you for the most amazing years of my life!
Finally
A couple of vacation pics...
#1) The first one is one of the high lights of Nevaeh's short life... she is in LOVE with Peter Pan. She was so nervous to meet him!! I ordered a 8 by 10 of this picture and hung it in her room and she gets giddy when she looks at it!
#2) Number 2 is a picture of us waiting in a TWO hour long line for some new ride!! Nevaeh was so patient!!
#3) The 3rd one is of Nevaeh all dressed up as Jasmine... Uncle Lofi and Auntie Jess were nice enough to buy that for her birthday!
#4) The last one is of all of us (Uncle Lofi, Auntie Jess, Leila and Johnny!).
We had so much fun and can't wait for our family vacation next year!
Car Wash
After being practically insulted by Trish about Jacob's filthy car, we decided to wash it this morning. Nevaeh was so excited to help! I told her to go to her room and get a sweater and some shoes... she quickly ran into her room... Jacob and I were already waiting outside when she walked out...
She was wearing sweatshirt, shorts and her glass slippers!! She looked so funny.. she ran out yelling...
Nevaeh: "I am ready, daddy!".
Jacob shaking his head: "I hope this isn't a an idea of how the future will be"
Me: "Well, at least she isn't wearing her bikini"
Nevaeh: "OH, MOMMY, I want to put on my 'baby soup'!!"
Jacob: "thanks Jen"
Oopsie...

Weekend
On the 4th, we decided to go to our friends timeshare, which is right on the beach for a BBQ and sunbathing. It was a lot of fun and Nevaeh LOVED hanging out on the beach for hours!
Nevaeh slept in her underwear Friday night, because I forgot to change her. Anyway, she snuck into our bed around 4 and then at 7 she woke up yelling, "EEEWWW, daddy's gross!!" I asked her why and she said, "he is sweaty". I leaned over to touch him and leaned right into my daughter's PEE!! Gross, I know!! At 6:45 a.m. the last thing I wanted to do was change the sheets, give her a bath, and change her all while dealing with a crying kid!! The only thing that got me through it was Nevaeh apologizing for "pee the bed"!! My poor baby, I tried to make sure she understood it was an accident and it wasn't her fault. While I gave her a bath, Jacob changed the sheets and put the pee soaked ones in the wash. Nevaeh was not about to go back to sleep after that so she went off to the living room and daddy followed. I headed straight to the bed and went back to sleep. When I woke up I found the entire house CLEAN. Jacob was sweet enough to make breakfast, wash the dishes and clean the house... while I slept! So sweet, his mama taught him well!!
We ended up in church last night which was awesome because we always intend to attend Saturday service but usually miss it due to Nevaeh's napping schedule. Nevaeh FOR THE FIRST TIME, walked into children's church without the slightest whimper!! She was telling us in the car, all the way there, that she was going to play with her friends, pray and eat snacks all on her own... and to our surprise SHE DID!
Anyway, since we diid church last night we have all morning to hang out as a family!! We have decided to head out to Carlsbad and get a nice workout in then play on the beach. We have packed our lunch bag and are now going to get ready and head out! Nevaeh convinced us to buy her a kite, which we will fly at the beach today!
Hope you all enjoy your weekend... or what is left of it!
