Santa is back in town...

Aloha everyone..
I have not blogged for such long time due to my busy schedule but now it is break time. Pagna is growing so fast. He speaks like non stop now. He is very good in sharing with little kids (not too much with his kids at his age). He always invites the kid next door over and plays with him.
Few weeks ago, there had a strayed cat around our apartment.He loves playing with the cat.every day he got up,opened the door and called out "maow, maow, moaw". He even gave away his food too. Sadly the RA took the cat away. We went to the zoo and aquariom. He LOVES the petting zoo. He doesn`t like be too close to the animal but loves to touch them or he said " No touch" means he does not want to touch the animals.
Last sememster, my friend and I had worked out on our school scheldule that we could swich our time to care of our kids. Kaipo is her boy who is nine months older than Pagna. They have grown closer. They played together very well.
Today we had a very lz christmas. We were planning to go hiking today but luckily we went yesterday. We won`t able to go anyways because it is snowing oh I mean rainning. Pagna got a CARS flee blanket and an air plane. David and I went see Avatar in 3D and treated ourselves with spanish food dinner. Anyways, I am so sorry that we did not have time to make any greeting card. But our wishes go to all of you. Merry Christmas and Happy New year

Pagna grows up, so does his mom.....

Pagna is now 18 months (19 months in another two weeks). He understands a lot. He is 93% tall for his ages and 91% heavy for his weight. After I found out that, I came home and told David that Pagna needs to stop drinking too much milk.So now Pagna is completely nipple bottle free. Whew... it was not that hard. He drinks his juice and milk from a cup or a bottle with a straw. He knows to do a lot of things now such as putting trash away, open the fridge and the house door (but he does not do it often)...
He speaks and makes a lot of noises. He speaks English, Khmer, Japanese and Hawaiian.
English: eyes, sky, star, doggy, birdy, Elmo, daddy, bye bye, night night...
Khmer: tors( let`s go), yum yum (eat time), eek (dirty) (I should teach him more khmer)
He plays peekaboo in japanese. He says "all pau" means " all done" in Hawaiin. He touches my heart when we seat down for lunch and he starts to fold his arm and pretend that he is praying. He will run and crab a slipper when he sees anything crowling because he saw us did with roaches.Well I think it is enough about pagna. I am so sorry for not putting any pictures on because we don`t have our camera with us here. It is in Washington. Can you tell that I am getting old because I start to forget thing now.
Yes I just turn 27. I feel so old and think that I should have another baby. Oh wait Edana, if you are reading this, don`t get too excited. I am just joking. I need to finish school first and get our life seatle down first. It is very hard to handle a kid and school at the same time.
To celebrate my birthday, David took me to cheesecake Factory. We ordered the food that we always get of course Jamaican shrimps. Oh it is so good. We even treated ourselves a brownies cheesecake.It was a fantastic break for me. And now school starts again even though I am not ready for that.

Oh here is a picture of Pagna and his best buddy at the ward camp out weekend.

Keep hanging.....

Aloha guys,Sorry for taking for ages to post some update of our life. We were having a lot of visitors here. I am in school and busy with big boy Pagna.
Guess what I just find out. I Hate physical science. I am taking also tennis which I suck. I need to admit that I am very persistent and hopefully my teacher gives me an A.
David still has been crazy with his fish hunting even thou he does not really like eating it. One of his friends went fishing and got an Eel(I know how to spell an EEL wow) and he gave it to us. What am I going to do with this weird creature? Help me. I turned youtube the answer for everything found out how to prepare and cook eel. When I gutted it, I found a minini inside of its stomach poor eel. We made Japanese dish by grill bbq eel. Pagna loved it so did David.





I have quite a few projects that needed to finish. One of them is cutting David`s hair. Well I will save this for his mom because we are going to see his family really soon.



Pagna is almost 17 months. few weeks ago, we took to the genetic specialist for his abnormal galactose level. It was time to test him again. Before we went to the lab, we had challenge Pagna to take regular whole milk for four days. They took his blood and sent it to California and the result came back normal. Yay for Pagna. He can eat everything but not candy because mommy does not let him.

bZZZZZZZZZZ or LaZZZZZZZZZZ

Well my schedule is really busy recently because I have no School No work but all my time is all to Pagna and David. Oh man tell me about that. The truth about this is my fun time with them. We are working on our new farm and going to the beach alot. Pagna is growing so much. He is a grown up boy now. He does a lot of new things.






A lot of our friends have gone home or left for a mission. We miss them so much. We are grateful for their love and care.

As I don`t take any classes this term, we hung out everyday. We work on our new farm. David has friends over to play game or they go out for snorkeling or spear fishing. He caught few fish and a big octopus.

Eternal Family

Sorry guys for taking ages to post up some pictures and update about our busy life here.
Again, Pagna had fun on his birthday with his grand parents. We were relaxing a lot. We went to the ranch " Kualoa ranch". We went on a tour and a pet zoo. Pagna rode on a dockey, saw some horses and peted a dog. He was so cute.








Not long after seeing his Americains grandparents, Pagna went on his very very first long long flight to Hong Kong to see his Cambodian grandparents. It was too long on the plane...
It felt so good to be on earth. We took a bus to our hotel. We were so lucky to have David there because I would be crashed without him. We went throught the custom so fast because David is a white american oh yes. They cut the line of about 50 people for us. We got there about six in evening which is already late in Hawaii. We were starving. We went down checked out around our hotel. We ate on the street. Sorry Ma that we did listen to your words. But it was delicious. We had two days before my family got there. It was cool.





First time for David to meet his parents in Law and for Pagna to see his grands parents.

Grand parents are in town...
Guess what? Pagna has lived with us for a whole year long.
Happy Birth day Pagna






Pagna also has a special gift from Cambodia, a nice set of cambodian cloth, a necklace and a bracelet.

Busy time...
It has been so long that I haven`t updated anything about us. I have been little bit busy with school, Pagna and so on. Pagna has grown so much now in this sort period of time. He walks perfectly. He know how to clap his heads, wave goodbye and point to stuff. He was 25 pounds last check up. I think he lost weight little bit because he plays a lot and eat less. He is so fun to be with but it is tiring too to keep up with him the whole time.
