About Me

My photo
We are extremely blessed! J and I have been happily married for 4 years and continue to grow and learn more about each other everyday(you would think after knowing each other for over 15 years there wouldn't be anything else to learn)!! Josh is currently a submarine officer in the Navy. We just finished up our shore duty in Monterey, CA and SOAC(dept.head school) in Groton, CT and are now living in Virginia for a short while where Josh is the ENG on the Tennessee. We will be moving to Georgia with in the next year and couldn't be more excited! While Josh is busy on the submarine I am busy raising our two sweet little girls Adah and Michaela! We love being parents and watching our sweet baby girls grow, change, and learn each day! Can't forget about our first "children"...our crazy cats Izzy and Ollie! We have been blessed with the best friends and family in the world. We can't wait to see what God has in store for us in the coming years!

Sometimes I hate technology.....


I had a whole bunch of pictures to upload and post but blogger keeps messing up so here are the few that I could get! I'll see if Josh can figure out what is going on when he gets home!

Adah enjoying bread at Cheesecake factory! She is a carb lover for sure!
notice her injury on her forehead.....that actually looks really good from what her forehead looked like after she took two dives into the concrete in one week!

Playing at the park....trying to get out through the bars!
Ready to slide....at least we pretend...she Hates the slide and REALLY hates the swings! She prefers to walk around and pick up mulch..mmmm!
Crawling up the steps!

16 months

My sweet lil Adah Potatah! My how you have grown and learned so much lately! This past Saturday you turned 16mths...you are almost a year and a half! I can't even believe it! This means pretty soon you will have a baby sister!

You make us laugh so much! You bring so much joy to our lives and we couldn't imagine a second without you in it! You are becoming such a sweet and considerate little lady!

Here are 16 new things you have been doing this month:

  1. you say ma-ma
  2. you will answer us yes or no when we offer you things or ask you questions
  3. you use a fork(the right way)
  4. you talk non stop! YOu tell us stories all the time as if we know what you are saying!
  5. you are cutting 2 more teeth which gives you a total 14! That means only 4 to go!
  6. you aren't too sure about strangers anymore...you really study people and won't go to just anyone
  7. you tell me when you have a dirty diaper by walking over and saying bo-bo
  8. you LOVE your baby doll....you "shhh" her and put her to bed, feed her, hug and kiss her, etc.
  9. you still don't like TV but LOVE your MBCR videos!
  10. we made the mistake of getting you addicted to the DVD player in the car
  11. you can now roar like a tiger
  12. you like to play with your belly in the mirror(sucking it in and pushing it out)
  13. you have had more falls/accidents this month than your entire little life combined
  14. you love to test us....always trying to get away with more or run away as far as you can before we catch you
  15. when we ask you to smile real big you open your mouth as wide as you can
  16. you have your first best friends.....the McClure girls that live across the street! You absolutely LOVE them and they love you! You wait at the front door every morning for them to come outside and then you scream with excitement! You love to play with them and give them hugs and kisses! You laugh with them SOOOO much!
I'm sure you are doing so much more but mommy and daddy can't seem to think of them right now! We just love to talk about you each night after you have gone to bed! We just smile and laugh the entire time we are talking! You are everything to us and we love you more than words can say!

Picture update!

I would write much other than what is going on in the pictures! Adah has her 15mth checkup next week so I will do a long written post on what she is up to. Josh is still at department head school here in CT and I'm trying to get over this lingering morning sickness that so far has decided to last the entire pregnancy. I am now half way through and still getting sick everyday! I was only sick with Adah for about 4-6wks! This one has been nearly 14weeks! BLAH!

Enjoy the pictures!

This first few pictures are from when Adah and I went peach and blueberry picking with our friends across the street!


Adah picked it up just to throw it behind her back!
love that little bubble diaper butt!
Trying to find the best blueberry to squish between her fingers!
tickle time with mommy!
Her most favorite thing to do with her most favorite person!
Happy as ever on Da-Da's shoulders!
