Oh man, its been a really long last two days! Yesterday, Julian and I sat at the Chrysler dealership for 4 hours waiting on our car to be serviced and detailed! and today Tabatha and Gabryel came over to spend the day with me! We always have a good time, even when we are doing NOTHING! :) [like today]

Tabatha just recently got her 27 week ultrasound, and after being reassured she is most certainly having a little girl, she so kindly gave Julian all of Gabryel's hammy downs!!!!! What a wonderful friend! Tabatha and I have very similar personalities and taste so i loved ALL the clothes!! I wish i would have taken a picture of how much it was before i dug through it all to look at everything, but it didnt cross my mind. but needless to say, his drawers, closet and side cubbies on his dresser or filled with clothes he can wear from now through 24 months!.. :) what a big help! THANKS TABATHA!!! :)

This is a picture of my lil Lauralie.. [Tabatha's baby girl]..

a glimpse of our day today

my big boys all 8 teeth! the side bottom ones are still small but you can see the little pecks! :P

his perfect smile, that just warms mommy's heart!


yeah we have fun together! :)

Smilee JuJu!

hes simply my heart, pride, my joy, MY WORLD!

10 months & 8 teeth

omg yes, my son has 8 teeth! all four top front... all four bottom front!..

Every morning my mom calls me on her way to work and she talks to Julian on the cell phone.. well today he wanted to talk and i wouldnt let him because he had already put spit in the ear peice... so when i wasnt paying attention he CHOMPED on to my finger! The FIRST time he has bitten anyone! - man oh man what am i going to do with this wild child! :P

He still isnt full fledge walking, but he does take about 10 steps before falling, and sometimes he catches himself on the furniture and can keep from falling over.

Yesterday, Julian had biscuits & syrup.. he had it from head to toe, so i figured we should just get into the shower together.( i needed to wash the hairspray out of my own hair)
It was Julians first time in the shower, and he absoultly LOVED IT! HE would laugh when i would hold him and thirl him under the water. and would sit by my feet and play with his toys. oh & he would also walk around the edge and anything and everything he could get his hands on, he would toss clean out of the bath tub!.. .. oh yeah i had a mess when we were done, but it was oh so much fun, and SOOO much easier than fighting him to stay seated in his bath tub! :)

Other that that nothing new has happend here lately, its been very boring!
WE are super excited to go see Aunt Cherish & Uncle Josh this weekend in Philly! :)

Ohh my Juju bug. He was in the most lovely, pleasent mood today! Hes just such a character..:)

My snugglebutton woke bright eyed and bushy tailed, i made breakfast to keep our day on a chipper positive note.

My mom is after me to try to get pictures of his six chumper but this is the best i could get..lol

Top three- other front top is just bout to push out as well... incase you cant see.

and he really faught me to get a picture of the bottom... You can see his front two..and on the left side..he has another one, but it just broke through a day or two ago so it's not as big as the others just yet. But i think he covered it with his tounge in the picture. Oh well . :P He was in too good of sprits to make it go sour.

shot of him being all cute drinking his baba

Later i went into the bath room to straighten my hair, Julian is NEVER allowed in the bathroom unless hes in there with Josh or Myself. && he alwaysssssssssssssss plays with the shower curtain or his bath toys. Julian LOVES bath time, after dinner we always sing a lil song," julians getting a bath.." and he always halls tail for the bath tub. WEll i guess today when in there with me he decided he wanted a bath..because he sure did crawl into the tub BY HIMSELF. Shame on me for not keeping a better eye...& thank god for letting him crawl over into his blow up duck instead of the actual tub... oh man that could have been baD! but i hate to take pictures.. because it was so cute && josh wouldnt have believed me if i hadnt had the pictures to prove it.

Finally, when josh got home.. him & julian sat by the sliding glass door to watch the rain/thunderstorm. Julian will love weather ( i assume) just like Josh and i do!..he just sat there in awe looking out the window at the lightning!.. it was so peaceful!

my boys! :)

that was pretty much bout it for the day..just dinner, bath & bed after the rain storm!

...

Well as you can tell this is now a blog all for JULIAN, if you look on the right sidebar, you see a Picture of Joshua & myself..and under it is a link to our blog.

Nothing new on JUjubugg..my camera was MIA & when i found it, it was completely DEAD. So i promise to keep do better & keep a steady update with pictures.

But check out Josh & I's blog..i did get to update it. :)

2 days shy of 10 months

my oh my how time flies, my baby boy is almost 10 months old. :) He is so grown already though.. walking better and better everyday, talking(6 words), getting into everything!! and has 6 of his teeth already. I suppect his other top front will come out within the next few days though.

he has his ..

and today his lower Lateral Incisor.(1)

Well yesterday i had a doctors appointment, after Julian and myself met Tabatha and Gabryel went out to lunch, JOES CRAB SHACK! I had a shrimp poboy yum!

after we came home to let Julian nap with daddy & i cleaned up around the house. After a nap Tabatha and Gabryel came back over to go swimming with JUju & myself, we had so much fun together! The boys usually get along so well, even with their age difference. Josh decided to cook stuffed peppers for us, after i gave Julian and Gabryel a bath together knowing Gabryel would prolly fall asleep on the way home!(which he did) and it would give Tabatha a break.

i forgot to bring my camera to the pool(toomuch going on) but i did take some pictures with Josh's phone while they were taking a bath!..

walking boyy

oh my! soo yesterday josh and i were sitting around and we usually hold julian at the waste and try letting go to get him to stand alone && hes been doing soooo well with standing. Yesterday when he did it, i was standing maybe a food and a half away from him and julian and julian just started talking. he took three big steps toward me before falling! i was in so much shock i couldnt move, all i could do was SCREAM at the top of my lungs in excitement! Josh told me to hush the neighbors would think he was beating me! haha! :P

i was thinking bout it all night, how much i wish i could have caught his first steps on camera and video. oh well it was too late to beat myself up over it, there was always tomorrow.

Well at bed time last night, Julian was having the hardest time going to sleep. His little nose was all stopped up so josh and i sucked it out with a nasal bulb. and after some coaching he finally slept. this morning he was so congested and croupy and wheezy that i made a appointment first thing. So being that my baby is sick, getting him to "walk" was last on my mind. NOT to meant ion in between the mess.. Josh called and told me he forgot his bed sheets for his rack at home, so i washed and dried them, also gathered his body wash, wedding ring, and DO and brought it all to him on the ship. Then called back again later that he needed his coveralls, so on top of all this i also had to bring him to work this morning before julians appointment. THEN i had company come over, a friend Sasha to spend the day with.
too busy of a day to think bout my 9 month old walking...

but this afternoon after everything settled down i sat on the floor to play toys with him. Julian crawled over to the sofa and used it to help him stand up like he would normally do to cruise the furniture. WeLL not this time.. he turned around, looked at me and walked all the way to me!!!!!!!!!!! He had his little chubby arms spread out like a bird to keep his balance! i was so excited i ran to get the camera to see if i could get him to do it again for video!!..and he did it! Not as well as he did the first time..but.. still its so amazing to me that he's doing all this already and hes only 9 months old!

so here is the video of my awesome baby boy.

About Josh, has duty today today and they leave again tomorrow until thursday! life of the military!

xoxo jonniLin josh & julian

this weekendd..

Family day Cruise!

Josh's ship invites family to come aboard the ship about once a year if we're lucky. I heard it was really fun but didnt get to do it last July because i was pregnant!
So there was a bus the left for little creek base and drove all the way up to Yorktown to meet the ship. Then we unloaded and found our loved ones. We got to go in and see and watch all the sailors do their jobs and enjoy the cruise, it was really cool i must admit. About 2 hours into the cruise i started getting sea sick! I could no believe it, never in a million years did i think it would effect me that bad. But after watching Forest Gump with Josh and eating lunch,(they bbqed) i felt much better. It was about a 8 hour cruise, i really enjoyed it.
