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!

Pictures: cookies and baby gifts

Here are a few pictures of the pilgram hat cookies that I made! They are pretty good....but like I said before a little more difficult than I had originally thought! Also is a picture of the little gift we got from Josh's Dad and LouAnn today! Thank you guys so much! They are absolutely Adorable...we love them! And not to mention they are baylor colors so they will match the only other baby thing that we have.....a Baylor onesie given to us by my brother and lindsay.

The nerve of some people...

Today I got really depressed with being pregnant. I know it is suppose to be cute and fun.....but some people just don't know how to keep their mouth shut or just stop while they are ahead.

I'm at tonight and a lady comes in and we are talking.....she asks me when I'm due....at first I was confused and said what? and she was like umm...you are pregnant, right?.....I chuckled and was like oh yeah...(that was the first time anyone had noticed or at least said anything)......I told her that I was almost about a week away from being 4 months....she was like "WOW! Are you having twins?" ...... I go no, just one...she goes well you look like you are having twins.....! CAN YOU BELIEVE HER! I was pissed and sooo upset....I wanted to just cry and lock the doors to the shop and go home! I could not believe that someone would say that! Just a side note.....I do not by ANY means look like I am having twins. I have only gained about 4-5 pounds since being pregnant....granted my stomach does pooch out....but come on!

Anyways....I just wanted to vent! And incase you are going to ask....no I will not take a picture and put it up on here....especially after that comment.

On another...happier note....I made the really cute Thanksgiving cookies that my lovely friend Rachel put up on her blog....and they turned out really cute...and are actually pretty good. I will take a picture of those and post...hopefully tomorrow. I will say though that they were not as easy to make as "rachel made them look":)! (Yes Rachel...it is your fault!)

Hope everyone has a great weekend! Oh and for my little brother.....WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED TO TEXAS TECH! Undefeated and got KILLED by OU(I don't think killed even comes close to describing what happened)! WHAT IS THAT ABOUT?!?! I bet they lose to Baylor next week too! RIDICULOUS!

The babe, new friends, and yoga!

Well....we went to the doctor again today. I'm not gonna lie...I was a little disappointed. We did not get to see the little peanut....which means....to mean it is still a peanut! We did get to actually HEAR the heart beat this time which was really cool....but why couldn't he just let me see the thing too! UGGHH! Oh well....I guess we will just hope to see the babe next time. I was really hoping to have another picture of the growing babe before going home for Thanksgiving....not gonna happen. Our next appointment isn't until the week after Thanksgiving....which at that time we will have just celebrated our 2 year wedding anniversary! YEAH! I love you Josh! We have been having so much fun that it feels like yesterday!

In more exciting news....I met a friend today! We actually met through an online group of Submarine officer wives. We have so much in common...it is CRAZY! Her name is Amanda....she is due 4 days after me with her first baby....she just moved here to monterey.....she is from the South(Oklahoma to be exact)....the only downside is she is a BIG Sooner fan.....we have had the same gravings and aversions during our pregnancy so far......her husband is a submariner.....! I am super excited....and she even invited me to join a prenatal yoga class that she goes to on Thursday nights.....so I went for the first time to night and met her and we hit it off instantly....and I really enjoyed the Yoga!

I guess making a friend and the relaxing yoga made up for no picture of the babe!

Hope everyone has a good weekend.....I'll be hanging out with my uncle and grandpa!
