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!

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!

Lil Miss Adah Mae

Wow! What is Adah not doing these days! I gotta say we have one smart little girl on our hands! What a joy it is to spend everyday with her and watch her learn and grow! I just love her to death! She can be quite the drama queen and sassy at times....she is VERY sensitive and can get EXTREMELY frustrated when trying to do things that she either can't quite do or hasn't figured out yet or when a toy isn't doing what SHE wants it to do! She is doing so much better at walking and running after almost 1 month of walking! We have these 4 sweet sisters that live across the street from us ranging in age from 10-2 and Adah just adores them! We hang out with them a lot since Josh and their daddy are in the same class and their mom and I getting a long so well! Unfortunately, they will be moving to Hawaii for their next 3 years while we go to VA and GA! Such is the life of the navy....but the good thing is as that we will stay in touch and hopefully meet up again!

Back to Adah! Here are just a few things she is doing now!

-moved up to size 4 diapers
-loves to "flush" the toilet
-loves to put clothes, towels, etc "on"
-LOVES to give kisses but if she gives me one then she has to give Da-Da one!
-she is a BIG flirt
-loves to blow kisses and wave
-has started to carry purses around a lot
-can say eye and nose and point to them
-knows where her: eyebrows, hair, head, eyes, nose, mouth, toes, feet, etc are
-if you ask her how old she is she will hold up 1 finger
-she knows the sounds of a cat, dog, cow, coyote, chicken, duck, sheep, lizard, bird....
-has gotten very shy when there are new or a lot of people around...she will cling to my leg!
-LOVES to give her baby doll kisses and push her around in her little stroller
-can say baby(she learned this one when we were having the gender sonogram done!)
-love to hide things everywhere
-loves to empty her toy bins by THROWING them to the ground
-love to draw on the ground with sidewalk chalk
-LOVE LOVE LOVES to go on "rides" on Da-Da's back...if you are sitting on the floor she will go up to your back and grab on cause she wants a ride...Da-Da loves to spoil her with rides!
-playing with bubbles is one of her favorite things...but she also likes to blow them with her own spit..haha
-the girl LOVES to dance and when you say "dance, dance" she starts to dance!
-can shake her head yes and no....only when she shakes her head no she uses her WHOLE body!


Thats all I can think of right now but I know there is TONS more!

I love love love my sweet little girl to death! I think that this is the funnest age yet and I know that it will only get better! I can't wait to see her love on her baby sister!

Until the next time I get around to blogging....(pics to come soon)
