It’s been a long week and I am ready for the weekend. Pish and I will be Katie free for two days. Pish is dropping her off at my brother’s house right now and she’s sleeping over for the whole weekend. She is so excited to see her cousins and I think they will be going to Legoland tomorrow too!
So Pish and I have a date night planned tonight! Woo hoo! It’s been a long time since we went out just the two of us. Through a connection (one of his patients), Pish was able to get us a reservation at the exclusive members only restaurant called Club 33 at Disneyland. I didn’t know much about it but I found it’s expensive to be a member! The Corporate Membership fee is $27,500 plus $6,100 in annual fees. The Gold Membership is for an individual with a member fee of $10,450 and an annual fee of $3,275. Click HERE for more information on the restaurant.
On Saturday we have a “no-kids” wedding to go to in Palos Verdes. Not sure if the current fires are affecting it though. Then on Sunday we’ll be picking up Katie. It’s going to be a fun weekend!

My favorite flower is the plumeria. A while back, Liz bought me a plumeria plant for my birthday. I named it Lizeria.
It flowered the first year but never again. I was worried that Lizeria was sick so I bought some fertilizer and Pish has been taking care of it. Then last week we saw this! Looks like there are more flowers on the way too!

Last week, Pish was wearing a pair of Nike shorts and Katie pointed to the logo and asked, “what’s that?” I said, it is called a swoosh. Then she responded, “No mommy, it Nike”. If you already knew, why did you ask?? hehe..I asked where she learned that and she said Auntie Debbie. Did you teach her that deb?
Another thing she learned from Auntie Debbie is what gas is. If you ask Katie, she’ll say, “Food for the car!” It’s funny that Debbie is the one that is teaching her about sports clothes and cars.

Here’s a conversation I had with Katie when we got in the car yesterday.
Katie: Mommy…can I watch dvd pleeeeeease?
Me: Can’t we just talk a little first?
Katie: Mommy…I talk to you while I watch dvd
Like duh mommy! We did talk for a while though. When I ask her what she did at school, she always say she washed her hands. Not sure if she’s absorbing the academic stuff but at least she’s clean!

I’ve been bad about bringing my camera and taking pictures lately. This past weekend, we finally met Binh and Lan’s baby Olivia. Newborns are so cute!! We also stopped for a snack and we had the biggest shaved ice I’ve ever seen. It’s not cheap but it is sooooo good with Condensed Milk. We got one size smaller than the picture below but it was still HUGE.
On Sunday we woke up, had breakfast and headed to Disneyland! Gotta make use of the pass you know. We are pretty efficient these days. We were at the park before 8:30am, rode Katie’s favorite rides, ate the lunch I packed, and met up with some of Pish’s friends. Then to end it off we used our last “front of the line pass” to ride Nemo. The best part is that the guy forgot to take our pass. So we get to use it again. woo hoo! We left the park by 1pm and Katie napped in the car. It was perfect! We still had the rest of the day to clean the house, vaccuum, do laundry and run some errands without being too pooped. It’s really nice to have an annual pass.

Pish and Katie are at Disneyland today. They got there right when it opened. Pish is maximizing the annual pass already and we need to take advantage of this while Katie is still free. I’m jealous though…
Here’s some pics that Pish is taking from his iPhone. It looks like they did a lot already!
It looks like they lasted 4.5 hours. Here she is konked out on the way home.

I went to a free health screening at work today. They pricked my finger and took some tests. The prick really hurt today! I’m such a wussy. But in the end, it looks like I’m healthy but I still feel like a fatty lately. I really need to start exercising.
Blood Pressure = 91/64 –> good
Body Mass index = 20.8 –> 18.5-25 is normal
Body Fat % = 26% –> recommended for my age is 21-33%
Non-fasting Glucose level = 101 –> under 140 is normal
