icecream sandwitches!

Today was a full day, Julian had been sleeping in til bout 9ish but decided to wake at 7 today. BUMMER!
Cleaning started bright & early and good thing it did because daddy suprised us by coming home early today without notice! :)
Julian was pretty cranky again today- i noticed his top two front are both tring to come out at the same time! :( poor baby. so josh & myself shared our ice cream sandwitches with jujubugg..and trust me he did not complain HE loved the cold on his gums.

As for myself, I have a sense of change that has come upon me the last two weeks, its not complete yet but i feel like so much weight has been lifted off my shoulders. Its nothing I put alot of effort into changing- i mean some parts I knew needed work,but for the most part it is just a humble, loving, relief, and i pray that every soul could feel such a feeling. So today i celebrated with in myself by letting lose and taking in my happiness & change.

School is creeping up, im so excited to begin the classes to persue my hopes and dreams of being a success in my career! I truly feel blessed that i get to remain home with my son and not work and have the worry of attending school on top of working and being a good mommy to my babyboy. I cant thank Josh enough for doing what he does to support our famiLy.

Julian had trouble getting to sleep tonight, and i wasnt able to tag team with Josh because Josh was at his baseball game, so i decided to give juju a freebee and rock him to sleep. i missed doin that so much, but know i dont want to go back to doing that everynight. he has gotten so big, and heavy. he grasp onto me just as he did as a infant, checking ever so often to make sure his mommy was still there and didnt leave him. i cant begin to express how thankful i am to have such a wonderful beauitful son. i was watching discovery health last night and there was a baby on there that couldnt be held. she would stop beathing, and her heart would stop, so much could go wrong in a pregnancy and childbirth. i thank god for my blessings everyday, but still i can not get a grip of the total picture, how truly bless i have been with in the last two years.

:)

i have pictures from today but dont really feeL like loading them right now, Jon & Kate are about to come on so perhaps i'll load them with tomorrows' update.

ChuRch

today was church day!

Josh had work last night so when he came home he picked up some krispy kreme..mm'yum! i think it was to motivate me to get out of bed fast..haha. we got dressed and headed on to service! :) Julian got to wear his new outfit mommy bought for him!





i had been working on a roast since noon yesterday. When we got home we pigged out,roast cream patatoes, along with the groceries i cooked in my roast(patatoes, carrots, onions, bellpepper). it was sooooooooooooooooooo GOOD! i was suprised it came out so well considering it was my first time!

Juian def is cutting another tooth, only this one is playing hide N seek- I CANT FIND IT TO SAVE MY LIFE! the rotten diapers, spitting, sticking his tounge out and blowing spit everywheres, horrible sleeping- all signs lead to it. So i had josh run to the store to get more tylenol, and he came back with a "special" for julian!.. A shirt that says," my moms hot" haha i thought it was cute! his crankiness was really bad tonight so he got bath bottle TYLENOL and bed. hopefully that helps.

ROCKSTAR

today was a busy day for julian and myself. Although we stayed home we got plenty done, cleaned the whole house from top to bottom and even started to cook roast for tomorrow night.

Might i add, while i cleaned julian pulled out.. my son is so clever! He knows how to open his drawers and he pulls everything out!!.. so as i cleaned his room he proceeded to do this. well i was like whatever lets move to the next room of the house, Mommy & daddys!.. well he figured out how to open our dresser drawers and how to slide the closet doors..so i basically cleaned the whole room with him on my hip!.. in the living room i had to take the knobs off our tv stand because he knows how to open the doors and loves to make a mess of the dvds! The kitchen isnt much better, he opens the bottom of my oven and pulls my baking pans out..and today showed me he can open the fridge. He did it by default but never the less he did it alone.
It was a VERY busy day.. ha.








I decided to have a lil fun with his hair, he seemed to get the gist of it being a rockstar hair do- lol

Saturdays Slip&sliddee

Dont know where it came from, but Josh and myself were talking & out of nowhere we decided slipNsliding would be tons of fun. After a quick chat with the Jennings, we decided saturday we would def do bbq and slipNslide!! && we got more use out of the pool we bought for beach day!.. julian and gabryel had tons of fun in the pool!

heres a few pics.

Beach Fun

After a long trip away from our home, Virginia Beach.. we decided to visit just that.. the beach. This was Julians second time at the beach but first real visit. The first visit,was a windy day and we just wanted to show him what its all about. Being a clean mommy, i didnt want Julian to get FULL of sand... nor try to eat the sand, so we stopped at walmart and bought him this real cute swimming pool and a hand pump that way he could play toys without the worry of them getting sandy Of course we left it dry inside, no nasty salt water in it, because knowing my child he would have found something in the water floating around and decide to eat that also!!!

Boy am i glad we decided to get it because he knocked out in the pool & had a good one hour nap. :) mommy got to relax and get some sun!
