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!

Weekend update

We stayed in most of the weekend...one because J had duty and mostly because sweet lil A is sick again! Poor girl has been running a temp of 102 and has a horrible cough! All she wants to do is cuddle with mommy on the couch which is hard since I have M to take care of too! She didn't sleep well Saturday night and didn't nap well Sunday but seemed to sleep better last night and is down for a nap now! She has a doctors appointment at 3:45 today since she still has a fever! Hopefully they can give her something to help!

Hello!!

Don't mind the hair, she just woke up from a long nap and took her hair bows out while she was in her bed! Had to share this picture for my brother Josh( uncle bubba) and his fiancé Kristen ( aunt Kiki)...Adah came into the living room with her play phone and wanted to call bubba bubba and Kiki....she was saying hello to them in this picture! Can't wait to get to Texas so she can play with her Aunts and Uncles that she hasn't seen in almost a year! Makes me sad to live so far away!

If Adah could write a list...

She would have at least one of each of these on her want list!  Every time we go to the store or to one of her friends houses these are always the toys she points out or plays with:

Aquadoodle are SOOOO cool!  If you have a kid and don't have one of these you need to get one because they are AWESOME!  It is a huge coloring blank coloring mat that has a "pen" you fill with water and draw!  This is definitely on my list of things to get Adah for her birthday in May!  

 Adah can not get enough of playing with this doll at her friends house and EVERY TIME we pass it at the store she screams for it!  She loves to feed it and give the baby its "milk" and the baby makes a drinking/eating noise when the spoon or cup touches her mouth!
A barbie car!  Adah loves CARS...so much that in her stocking for christmas we got her match box cars and she plays with them ALL THE TIME!  A friend of hers got this barbie car for her birthday and Adah LOVES it!  It makes sense to me to get her a barbie car since one day sooner than later she will want EVERYTHING barbie...might as well satisfy her car want with something that will benefit her barbie want in the future...right?!?!


This is a Mommy and Adah NEED!  Adah has a couple of friends that have this cute/cheap easel from Ikea!  On one side it is a chalkboard and the other it is a dry erase board!  Adah LOVES to draw with the chalk at her friend Caitlyn's house and I just LOVE it too!  I only wish we had an Ikea near us! :(  Maybe we can find one along the way to Georgia and pick up an easel for the girls!

This is more of a mommy want than and Adah....Adah has a few of the books that go with the tag jr but doesn't have the tag itself!  She LOVES the books and if we walk down that isle at the store she says she NEEDS all the books!  I think she might enjoy having the tag to help her learn to read the books....and mommy thinks it is fun and educational!

The other thing she LOVES is to play dress up!  I so badly want to get her a "magical" chest and fill it with all sorts of fun dress up clothes, jewelry, shoes, etc!  I just love to see her use her little imagination and always thought it would be so cool to have a chest just full of play clothes!

FYI ..... Adah's grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, Great Aunts, etc that read the blog...I know Adah's birthday is coming soon so if you get the urge to or want to buy one or more of these for her please let me know as I have been looking for deals on some of them and had plans to buy and don't want us to double up on things!  So just check with me first to see if I have gotten any of them for her!
