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!

Georgia here we come!

We recently found out when we are moving to Georgia for sure and I CAN NOT WAIT!  Don't get me wrong I have made a few good friends here in VA that won't be going with us and I will miss them but I couldn't be more excited to being moving south and to a place were we will be for more than 6mths!  We will be in GA until at least November of 2013!  We are currently looking for a place to live and I actually have a friend going to look at a house for us today...right now as a matter of fact and I can't wait to hear back from her!  I am praying that if this is the place that God wants us to live that all things will work out!  Once we finalize things I will share more but I don't want to get my hopes up!  I'm sure you are wondering when it is we are moving....in just 3 short months!  Mid May, just after Adah's 2nd birthday, we will be saying adios to Virginia and Hello Georgia!  I am just so excited that I had to update!  I will be sure to post lots of pics once we find a place and some info on the area incase anyone wants to come see us in GA!

Picture overload

Now that Rachel made uploading mass quantities of pictures on here so easy I may get a little carried away!  Ha!  Some of these are close to the same but a little different but I couldn't decide which ones I liked the best so I just uploaded several...I knew our families wouldn't mind! :)















21 months

Sweet little Potatah, you turned 21 months this past Saturday!  You are growing, changing and learning so much everyday!  You are so sweet....so sassy.....so strong willed.....so demanding....etc!  Daddy and I just love you to pieces!  We go to sleep every night just talking about you and laughing and smiling!  I love to see you care for and want to help with your sister....whenever she cries you come running with your arms open saying "come here sit-her, come here!  Hold you!"

Just a few weeks ago we started music class at Gymboree and you LOVE it!  You love music, you love to dance, and you love to sing and learn about the instruments!  We also go to free play at their gym once a week so that you can run and play and climb!

Here are a few more things that you are up to lately:

-count from one to ten in english AND spanish
-you know too many words and repeat WAY TOO much
-you know your alphabet but we are working on saying it in order
-you switched to a big girl cup
-we are working on getting rid of your paci
-you have mastered walking up and down the stairs on your own
-you tell mommy and daddy that you LOVE US!  BEST THING EVER!

Mommy can't think right now!  Its been a long day with you and sister!  You are SO smart and SO beautiful and we love you SO much!

A couple of pictures of Adah from today!  It was 70 here today so we went to the zoo this morning and played on the patio after nap!
