Oh my goodness, "Hello!" everyone. It's been a little over week since the last post. How are you doing my love??? I have been VERY busy, seriously busy with many exciting stuff!!!! I really want to share my good news, but it will be another few weeks for me to be able to make it public. I know, I know, I don't mean to be cruel, but my new projects require some work and until they are completed, I can't show exactly what they are. But, I hope you like my new projects! Once they are completed, I must say I'm stepping towards to a new life; a new goal. I'm so excited about this.
Anyway, here is another exciting news, or should I say, bittersweet news. We found out last week that JT's mom is going to take our daughters Ju Ju & Soap to NJ with her for 10 days!!! 10 days!!! They are going to visit bunch of family members who will be renting a beach house on the shore. My girls will get to see and play with their cousins which will be good for them.
JT and I were kind of shocked and didn't know what to do at first because.... We have never been apart from our daughters for more than one day. Yes, for the past five years, we've never been apart - we're all glued to our hips. So, when my mom-in-law broke the news, my mouth was opened for about a minute, couldn't even say a word. JT's stepdad couldn't stop laughing because he told me I looked like I was ready to cry. Ahem.. yeah, it's very hard for me. I don't know what to do when the girls are gone. 10 days. JT's stepdad said, it will definitely be a great experience for the girls to be away from their daddy and mommy, and it will be good for me and JT.
If I think about it, JT and I really haven't been alone, just two of us. Of course, we've gone to dinner and movie dates here and there, but I was already pregnant when JT and I got married, so we really didn't get to enjoy our honeymoon. I have been asking JT what he wants to do and he doesn't even know how to answer to that question. Oh silly man...
So, here is the question: Do you have any suggestion what we should do while the girls are gone?
I definitely want to enjoy alone time and play some sports with him or go to dinner without worry about going home early for the girls. I also can't wait to spend "ME" time without worryin about makind dinner for my girls... But still, I'm going to miss Ju Ju & Soapy. I am afraid that they are not goint to miss their mama... I guess this is something we as parents have to go through, watching the kids grow up.
Anyway, I am looking forward to your suggestions because Maki and JT are still in shock and don't know how to plan our second honeymoon. We need your help!!!
Oh by the way, I was driving on freeway last week and saw this guy on the motorcycle, texting while riding! It was dangerous! Really dangerous! I'd never seen anything like it. I wonder what was so important texting and riding motorcycle on full speed (it was probably like 75 - 80 mph) - it looked like he's done it before, like a piece of cake kinda attitude, but I looked to the right and my eyes opened so wide. Please don't drive and text. If you need to text, make sure wait for a red light or park your car. I must admit, I have done it before, but it's not good. I will be careful.
Okay, so my dear friends, stay tuned on my breaking news in a few weeks. I'm getting so excited!!!
P.S.
Thanks so much everybody for your opinion on camera. Canon is most popular, hands down. I haven't decided yet, but I'm leaning towards Panasonic Lumix. I will let you know when I get a new one!
Another P.S. - I'm going to start writing post in my other private blog again - if you haven't received invitations and want to read about my real personal life, then send me your email. I will send you the invite! Thanks!
Have a Cozy Weekend.

Mmmmmm...what to do. What to do? :)
I think you and the hubby should stay at some 5 star place for a couple of days, and just love each other, spend time being treated nice in a hotel...if you can afford it.
But if not, changing your home into a 5 star place for a night wouldn't be hard either.
I'd tell you to come home to Hawaii for a couple days...but I'm sure you and JT wouldn't want to do that without the girls right?
love love

Wow 10 days. I can completely understand how you feel. My situation is very similar. We are having a weekend away this weekend (2 days and 1 night) and i am just looking forward to visiting a local city and strolling the streets, stopping for a chat over a glass of wine and actually being able to finish a conversation. So excited. Make the most of it and have a wonderful time. Would love to read your other blog by the way x
Sounds like you have some very exciting news! Can't wait to hear it. Glad everything is going so well!
It will be good for the girls to experience being away from home. You don't want them to be too homesick when they start staying with friends and going to camp. At least you know they are in good hands!
And you and JT should definately plan a nice little get away or staycation! Have fun!
OOooh how exciting! You will miss them, but it will be a great experience for the girlikins, and good for you and JT to have that time alone together.
Do you like kayaking? Kayaking together is always fun. And a nice picnic in a park somewhere. Hmmmm.... so many possibilities!
I think y'all should take a mini vacay to a cute place near you and stay the night. :-) Also, eat breakfast in your hotel robes... It makes everything better! Haha!
I missed your camera post but I'm a big fan of the Panasonic Lumix LX3 which has a Leica lens. If I was buying another camera it would be that...or if I had the money it would be a Leica. Hopefully my days of being poor will be coming to an end sometime in the next year or two...
I can't wait to hear about your big plans!! I'm also working on some of my own but I just can't get the momentum going... Everytime I think I can do it I just get the feeling it's going to suck. I'm a wimp...
Um my suggestion is sex, sex and oh ya more sex. Anywhere and everywhere. HA!
Even if you don't go anyplace for a second honeymoon you can always pretend to be on one.
Yeah, what LBluca77 said! *laffz*
Definitely go on a 2nd honeymoon if you can! What fun! Or at least do a Staycation for a few days. I'm sure the kids will miss you a lot... just like you'll miss them... but it will be good for all of you to have a break.
I don't know what I would do with 10 whole days. Sigh. Anything you do will be so great because it will just be couple time!
Oh my gosh 10 days without the kids? That is a long time! You guys should do a little road trip or go to a spa and relax!
You'll have such fun on your break though! And it's good for your girls to get to spend time with your folks!
The Rambler: No we wouldn't want to come back without the girls. But we sooo need to be there!
Amy: I'll try to enjoy every minute of it. I'm just not sure enjoying it will make me a bad mama instead of missing them?
Laura: You are so right! I'm trying to tell my girls to enjoy. I think they will... Thanks honey:)
Dionne: Acutally, I've never tried kayaking. I'd always wanted to try, so maybe this is our chance to try all kinds of new stuff :)
Bakegirl: Yep, I decided on the camera! I'm sooo excited! Thanks so much girlfriend:)
LBuca: Hep, it's definitely on our to do list! LOL
LadyStyx: Yeah right? LOL
Ms. Salti: Yes - we're trying to figure out exactly where to go. We'll make the best of it.
Bayjb: JT loves road trip - he wants to do cross country with the girls someday.
The Blond Duck: I'm assuming so! I am afraid I'm gonna enjoy it too much :) I miss you!
