Baltimore...

Wow... It's been a while since I've been on here. Its been almost 2 weeks... Sorry. Been a little busy...

A little update...
We're in Baltimore now. Living with Chris' sister. Still living out of boxes though. Its a slow process with us I guess haha! Her basement is a mess... Basically our whole house (minus our bedroom and the nursery) is all in her basement. Its crazy. A little sad at the same time. A whole 2 years of our life is packed away in boxes and I have no idea when I'll actually see it all out of boxes again. I miss my kitchen stuff... And my house. I miss my own home where I could have all of my things out. Don't get me wrong, I'm veryyy grateful for everything that his sister is doing for us. Giving us a place to live for free until we get back on our feet... Which won't be hard once our house gets rented out. (That will take a huge burden off our shoulders). I guess it just sucks. For the past 2 years I've learned to be on my own with Chris and now Jr, and not need to depend on anyone, and now I have to depend on a lot of people.

I've started my job at Sam's Club up here... Needless to say, I hate it. I don't feel welcome and people aren't very kind... But its to be expected since we are in Baltimore. HA! I'm looking other places for a job.
I really don't want to stay there if I don't have to.... Hopefully I can get out soon. Plus I'm not getting enough hours there (which means not enough money).

Jr has 2 teeth now, and his top 2 are in the process of coming through. He's pretty adorable with his little teeth haha! And he eats like a pig. He loves all of the baby food. Apples, pears, green beans, squash, sweet potatoes, everything. I'm going to start making his food homemade though. I just have to find some time haha. Oh and he lovessss pizza crust too!

Zoey and Ace (Stephs pit) get along great! They are too funny together. Especially since she's so small and he's huge, but she holds her own! And Alex (the cat) chases Zoey all around... I think he thinks that she's really a cat ahah. And Aspen (the other cat) just ignores her most of the time. He's not as playful. But they are all pretty cute together.

Oooo Chris made us all dinner tonight... He made bbq chicken tacos =) They were deliciousssssss!!!!!

Well I guess its off to bed I go. I have to work every darn day this week... Next day off.... SUNDAY! Yuck!! Shoot me now!!

I have a few pictures to put up. But haven't had the time. Later this week.... Maybe Thursday... I'm off that morning. Night y'all!

Saying goodbye...

Last night what Chris' going away party for work. We had it at O'Charleys (yummmm!!). A good amount of people came which was nice. Tim Rowe and his wife Holly, put together an amazing plaque for Chris! I love it! He was a little worried that he wouldn't get one that was nice, because he didn't think anyone cared like he had always cared for the people whose plaques he did. So I was very happy when I saw how nice the one they made was.

After dinner I dropped the boys off to the bar to meet up with everyone else, while Jr and I came home to hang out until they were ready to be picked up. I know Chris had a lot of fun.

Chris wasn't supposed to have to go into work this morning, but they called and told him he needed to. I don't know why still... Chris ended up going in and going to medical because of the other night. (May not have told what happened but Chris and Ryan were wrestling and he slammed his chest into Ryan's knee and he's been complaining about it since then). Well medical has apparently told him that he has a broken rib. I guess this means I'll have a cripple complaining on the way to Baltimore tonight. Haha its ok though. I'll be in my car and he'll be in his.... Oh wait, rephrase that..... He'll be in my car and I'll be in his. He just called and said he can't drive his so I need to (his is a manual sports car). Bleh this sucks!

I went over the house and did the last walk through and it made me a little sad to say good-bye to our first home. Its sad. I'm going to miss my house and my spaces.

I still need to run back past my neighborhood and check my mail one last time and then say good-bye to Heather and the boys.

Oh I just want to get to Baltimore already. So I can just be there and have all of my stuff and see everyone.

Pictures from yesterday and today:

He's pretty darn cute sometimes...

Daddy hog-tied him with his blankie

Jr was giving his musical lion kisses this morning.

Just another Sunday...

Well its another Sunday around here... Except today we have plenty to get done. We're planning to heading over to our house shortly. We still need to finish packing up the last few things, like candles, cleaning products, and bath stuff. Then we need to do a quick clean up around and then vacuum. I don't plan on doing a super deep clean since the rental company is having people come in to do a clean behind us anyways. Everything needs to be done and out by Tuesday and packed into my car that night. We are heading to Baltimore on Wednesday. I'm getting so excited!!!

Jrs other tooth is almost through. I can even see a little white spot of it. I can't wait until I gets out, then maybe he'll stop being so cranky all the time. =) He's going to look too cute with 2 little bottom teeth. I wonder if he's going to start getting them all in back to back now that he has one and a 2nd almost out?! I hope not... If so, poor me! HAHA! He's too funny right now, whenever his mouth starts hurting he chews on anything and everything. Its especially funny when he grabs his nin and chews on the side of it. And when he gets so aggrivated about it and wants to really chew on something. He does when we call his war cry and grabs either his blankie or nin or just uses his fist and yells at them and shoves them in his mouth and chews hard! Haha! Its the cutest thing ever.

Chris tried last night to get him to crawl. We had him laying on the floor and had toys down there with him. Well Chris decided to put the toys just out of Jrs reach. And Jr was getting so mad and pulling his knees up close to him and then trying to push away, but he wasn't getting very far with it.

Pictures of the Day:

At 6 a.m. he decided he wasn't ready to go back to sleep yet....

So we stayed up until 730-8 and then went back to sleep.

"Hey Ma! My shirts stuck on my head."

Fairly lazy day...

Well today was a bit of a lazy day, even though I had a bunch that I wanted to get done... I did at least go back to the house and get a few more odds and ends packed up and a little more cleaning done. And Chris got the walls patched and holes filled. And Kate (Ryans Fiancee) even replaced the screen in the back door for us. =)

We went on to Lejeune to see Kung Fu Panda 2 and then the new Harry Potter (they are doing an early viewing for free on base). Well when we got there the line was wrapped around the whole building and people were in tents like they had camped out there over night... It was RIDICULOUS! So we went home haha! So Jr and I took a nap on the couch and Chris went out with Ryan(Chris' best friend) and Chad (Ryans brother).

Then Ry made bbq chicken tacos... Yumm!!! And now its going to be a night spent playing the Wii and maybe a card game of some type... We'll see. I want to play Uno or Phase 10, but who knows.

Jr ate apples for the first time tonight! He loved them!! He ate a half jar and still wanted more! But didn't give it to him because he's a lush and will eat till he pukes haha!

Jrs progress as of today

As of today, Jr is 4 months and 3 weeks old... He has done a lot of new things lately...

On June 30th, he ate baby food for the first time... We fed him carrots. He wasn't too sure about them at first, but then he liked them a lot. It took him a few bites to get the concept that if he wanted another bite he'd have to open his mouth for it. He only ate about a tablespoon full that night... But a few days later he ate the rest of that container which was about 5 tablespoons full. He loves them!!

Then when we were out to dinner one night I gave him real sweet potatoes... Ones that weren't baby food. He loved them too!! Maybe this means that I won't have a picky eater...WISHFULL THINKING!

Jr is so funny... He loves to watch Little Einsteins... I put it on the netbook for him to watch a lot. He loves it. He'll usually sit through almost a whole episode... But sometimes he looses interest but then goes back to it. It atleast helps me a little bit to get some things done haha!

Jr also sits in his highchair now... Before he wasn't really able to because he couldn't sit up very well... Were still working on getting him to hold his own bottle... He's getting better with it, but only if its a smaller bottle. Its pretty cute.

Long time, no post...

Well its been a while since my last post I just noticed. I suppose a lot has happened since then.

For 4th of July weekend we went home to Baltimore.While we went up we took Zoey with us, and left her there so she wouldn't be at our house for the packing and moving. We had a good time while we were up there.

On Wednesday... I BOUGHT A NEW CAR!!! I got a 2011 Ford Escape XLT! Its Slate Gray with black grill and black rims that have a chrome outline. Sport package with moon and tune premium sound package. And black leather interior with heated seats... LOVEEEEE MY NEW CAR!!!!! I'll have to post a picture of it later. Its amazing! I love how much room I have in it. I offically can fit Jr into the backseat easily and can have room in the seat in front of him so that my knees or Chris' knees aren't touching the dashboard. And I love my heated seats... I've even used them already.... I know crazy right.. Its summer and I'm using heated seats. But like I turn the air on its lowest setting and get cold but if I turn it off I get too hot, so if I have on both its perfect. Oh and we got an amazing deal on it! With the amazing financing rate of 1.9%!!!!! WOOHOO!!!!



Yesterday the moving company came and packed our whole house up! I was soo nervous about the whole thing. And once they were there it wasn't too bad, but dang we had a tonnnnnnnn of shit in our house! Like I totally forgot about some of the things that we had put up in our attic until we pulled them down for them to take and it made me wish we had pulled them out like a week or 2 before... Then I could have gone through and purged. It was nuts!! After the movers left we moved our bags into our friend Ryans and now were staying with him until the 13th which is when we leave.

Today though.... Was great!! I found Jrs first tooth... Well I mean we knew it was coming in soon, but its actually through now and its not just under the gums. And he has a 2nd one coming in right next to it! Its so exciting!!
