• Back from the dark side...AKA Facebook

  So I've been MIA because I've become addicted to facebook.  Most of the people that read my xanga are probably on facebook and know what's going on I figured.  But then I realized that I don't have any logs of our family goings on except on here.  So here I go!

  We spent Christmas and New Years in  Hawaii visiting my family.  It was awesome!  We got to go to the beach several times, played fireworks on NYE and got to see some friends I haven't seen in ages.  Oh, and we ate....A LOT.  Lucikly John and I had some wonderful babysitters that would watch the kids while we got some good runs in.  I was sad to leave and so were the kids.  Keoni came back and started to plan how he would be able to move there when he turns in 18.  He even has a checklist and has recruited some of his classmates.

  January was a super busy month for us!  Both Keoni and Nohea decided to join the school soccer teams so every Saturday in Jan/Feb was filled with 2 soccer games.  Plus Keoni was doing Scripps Ranch NJB basketball league so he had a game on Saturday or Sunday.  Add in birthday parties and cub scout events and that makes a busy Rodriguez family!  Also, John and I finished our first half marathon in January - the Carlsbad half marathon.  It was a great experience.  John did super well especially for having surgery on his achilles less than a year prior.  I, on the other had, ended up hurting my hip and have been off of running till just this past week.  But I'm building up slowly, but surely for the La Jolla Half in April.  Wish us luck!

  February found me going to San Francisco for a week for work and poor John dealing with a sick Kaleo while I was gone.  The highlight of the week was seeing Chris Bustos - whom I haven't seen since college!  I also got braces.  Yeah, not so fun, but hopefully it corrects my overbite and I won't grind my teeth down to nothingness.  Nohea also got to have some friends over for a "girl's day" birthday party and 2 of them even slept over!  OMG - remind not to invite 15 1st grade girls over again.  While it was fun and made a lot of cute pictures, I just don't think I can handle it again.  Whew!

  So March is upon us and everyone is getting so big.  Kaleo is walking, talking, and signing.  Nohea is not my baby anymore and Keoni is going to be in the double digits soon.  Sigh!  Thanks to everyone who got the kids presents off of their wishlists.  The loooooved them!  And to whomever got Kaleo that drum - thank you!  Let us know who you are because you didn't leave a note in the package!  I'll try to post some pics soon and update more often.!
