I can not believe spring break has come and gone.

Over spring break, Julian and I have def. kept our selves very busy..
- found a place to live
- did all the jazz for that
- got 2007 taxes refiled
- plenty arts and crafts
-went to the zoo
- did easter pictures
- cleaned out 'baby logan's room'
-went to BR to see Grandmaw & helped her in her new garden.
- and also planted flowers with mommy

Julian ready to pick the carrott...

Grandmaw giving Juju a hand..

&& and waaa LA... He was so excited. Julian loves carrotts.

Julian playing in the play grounds near the garden. I want so badly to have a yard to get him something like this. He LOVED this little house.

Welcome Friends! :)

For Snack I happend to pack carrott's.. ' how ironic'. So since Julian learned earlier that day that they came from the ground..

He thought that's where they now belonged.

My pooped little man, sitting in the dirt making dirt pies. He was soo ready for a nap && a BATH! :)

Cookie monster!

Today was yet another perfect day here in the deep south! & Julian was so worn out from playing yesterday..that he slept til 9 today! whoohoo that def. started my day off on the right note!..
Once we were up Melissa and I went to babies R us to catch a amazing sale they had going on! I mean .. it was a steal!.. I got 10 outfits for Julian all Carter, and Koala brand clothes and i spent exactly 53 dollars! I mean that is amazing. When checking out I literally felt like I was robbing the place! I check my reciept to see everythign was scanned & was like.. MAN that was amazing!

After coming home we ate skettie Nanny cooked..and Julian took his nap!.. After, we of course played out doors and soaked up the wonderful weather while it lasted.


Julian running around!


Melissa always keeps iceed animal crackers for Julian. He kept asking, 'cooocooo' which is cookie, so she got tired of going in and out ..and finally brought the whole jar outside for him! :P she spoils him so bad- haha. So here he is being the cookie monster, that he is..


bout to diggg IN! :) yummm!


As most of you know I have been having horrible luck since Josh left on deployment. I have been doing so much praying that thing will work out for us. Today I found a place for us, and I have been a nervous wreck that something will fall through and I'll be at square one all over again. Well today on my ride home... there was a small peice of rainbow in front of me.. and it literally looked like if would be directly over my apartment in DA from the view i snapped this picture- in paradis!.. I knew this was a sign, a small glimmer of hope for me!.. Things are going to work out one way or another, thank you lord for adjusting my vision- so that i would be able to notice this.




it was really tough to get a picture of from my iphone, and with the colors of the sun set. but it was really little and cute!.. thought i'd share!!

Enjoyy

Grand ol' Flag

Today was a beautiful day, 75 degree's clear blue sky, cool breeze, and big warm sunny rays. Perfect!
Julian and I went to my mom's for the afternoon after his nap. She has a big yard, and Julian loves being outdoors. We rode four wheelers, attempted planting flowers, and simply just played in the yard, Julian had a blast!


Playing with his trucks on the porch, with a flag he pulled out one of my mom's potted plants.

haha, i thought this was funny- it's like so redneck for him to put the flag on the back of his truck.. paaa- hahahahaha!

Maw maw had to go to the dollar store because we forgot italian dressing to let the steaks set in... and came home with some mini water guns. In this picture she was showing Julian how they work. He was so excited!


Once he had saw that it was just water, he would walk up to the gun and point it to his mouth, with his mouth wide open. he wanted her to squirt the water into his mouth.

He wanted to do it on his own so badly. This picture I could just see that his thought bubble said " You just wait mawmaw.. wait til I figure it out.. I'M GET YOU!"

& a few minutes later.. he did in fact get her. lmao.. only with his blue drink in stead- he learned that it too, squirted. Only had to give it a good sqeeze- && it was much easier than trying to make that trigger thing work.

& this is the face he gave when he realized that it worked! LOL

My baby was waving his american flag so sweet. He's supportive of his daddy! :)

Proud Son of a US Sailor, OS2 Danford on the USS ASHLAND. Miss you Daddy! But I am supporting you from afar!... xoxo

quick update

It has been very busy here the last few days..but here a update on things.


Here is Julian at his first play group.


Julian was invited to a tea party by another girl at the play group. At the tea party was clifford, and Elmo! haha


Today we stopped by my mom's to pick up a few things. Julian has a play phone over there, and evidently Julian thought Sophie needed to talk to whom ever was on the phone.


"incoming call for Sophie"

Uncle Jakey came by today to visit, and get his birthday card!! :)

I got Julian a folding chair today to go with his easter, but decided to let him try it out today since it was so pretty outdoors!

my precious little mann, eating his grapes while outside playing chalk.

Julian's easter. hahaha.. it's already finished.

His Easter contains:

-bubbles

-candy

-cookies

-veggie tale gummies

-veggie tale peeps

- 1 veggie coloring book

-2 books

- a rake and shovel for when we do our garden

- 1 folding chair

-24 pack of crayola chalk

Just around

Maybe I did Jinx things! Remember that 74ish degree weather I was just talking about in the last post? Yeah well guess what? Tonight Louisiana is getting SNOW... GO FIGURE! and it has been in the mid-low 40's all day. Way to go ME!

Today Julian and I took it easy for the most part. This morning I got dressed while Julian was napping. Once he woke up we ran to babies R us to get a shower gift, diapers, and some last minute things for Julian's Easter basket. Yes, call me crazy... but my son's easter bastket is already complete! haha.. and lets see.. there is a month and week left til Easter- Over achevier?

I also just mailed my hubby a package yesterday and already got another almost full. I like to theme his boxes..so far he's had a Valentine's Box, Mardi Gras Box,next is Easter then I dont know about May- but June will obviously be Father's day and July - Independence day. && finally August he will be home!! It usually takes a few weeks for packages to get to him, so no use in sending any after Independence Day Box. Last deployment I was able to focus on OB appointments, getting things ready for "the baby", and making trips down here(Louisiana) to visit family. But this deployment, since I am already down here with family on a daily base.. Holidays are all I have to look forward to, in order to help the time pass more quickly. Julian and I also have our box that we pull out of to give events for us to woke on together. so far we have
- planted flowers( we gave them to his grandmaw's for Valentines day.
-made bird feeders
-played at the park
-played chalk outdoors
and our newest is to go to the library to get books and read. The events I put in the box are just something small for us to look forward to doing together. The smallest things to look forward to help the time. Julian has been missing and asking about his daddy alot more lately, so today we watched family videos. Last time we did this, he cried like crazy then they went off- but this time he did alot better. He laughed the whole time his daddy was in TV and once it went off i tried to be funny and make him pay attention to me and not the fact that Daddy wasnt on the TV anymore.
Julian has the sweetest little voice, and is starting to say so much.. some of his newest are..
-i sit sit
-yess
-hello (aa-whoa) lol
-i love you
he is in a size 5 diaper and size 5-6 shoe.
he run's so fast for having such short leggs, and just recently is feeding himself with his forks and spoons at every meal, and doing a dang good job!

Overall it was a simple day, full of one on one time, and arts and crafts that you'll get a sneak peak at a little later! ;)

Enjoy.
