Lulu's First Boyfriend

So we have been going to lapsit(storytime at the library for 12mths-36mths) for almost 9 months now and Lulu has become friends with a little boy named Jackson. We have been having playdates off and on for about 4 months now. The last playdate Lulu got bold and kissed him goodbye. That's right...I have a VERY modern girl...didn't wait for the boy...Much to her daddy's dismay! We are coming home for a visit soon and we found out the other week that Jackson will be moving while we are gone. Because of this, his mom and I thought that it would be a good idea for us to get them together for one last play date...so here they are!

Lulu finally went crawling through the tubes at Burger King

Lulu and Jackson chilling out!

**There is a video of the two of them playing but the blogger is acting up at the moment so Iwill try to load soon!

I finally got the pictures to post. Hope you enjoy them!! Hope you had a GREAT Easter!

Happy Easter

We hope that you have had a great Easter as we have. Unfortuantly the blogger won't let me post any pictures but I promise to try again tomorrow!!! We love you and miss you lots. Happy Easter!

New Pictures

Not much new with us. We are just staying busy with our activites. This week is Spring Break for Gabbie. Hope you are all good and you enjoy the pics!

This is one of her mad faces

Gabbie's first soccer game. She's the blue in the middle. They had to wear blue jersey's to cover their orginal jersey's since they had almost the same colors as the other team!

All the way over. Nice view of some of the buildings on base!

The girls crowded room

Sisterly Love

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Happy St. Patrick's Day to everyone! We had a good day! Gabbie went to school and Lulu and I did some shopping. Please forgive the pictures. We are lucky when we can even get one picture. I was on my way out the door to Zumba and while I had been dresses in a cute green out fit, I had changed to my workout clothes. And no - I am not pregnant, I just haven't lost my baby weight!! Happy St. Patty's Day!

It finally worked!

I finally got it to work!! WOO HOO!!! Enjoy the pics!!

A cute picture if Lulu would open her eyes!

Here is one of the dresses mom. She and I LOVE them...they are cute and easy - Thank you!

Walking along the sea wall!! I wish I had more pictures but my camera battery was dying!

My friend Erin took Lulu down to the water's edge to check it out!! Isn't the water gorgeous?

Frustrating Blogger

I know that some of you think that maybe we fell off the planet...we didn't. It's just hard to find time to blog when you are the single parent. PLUS the nice little blogger hasn't like me in awhile so when I have tried to post things...it wouldn't let me. We are back and I promise (Mom, Dad, Robbie, friends, etc.) to be better about posting...just let the blogger be nicer to me :) I tried to post pictures but after waiting 30 minutes for them to load...they still haven't...I will try again tomorrow!! Promise!

Missing Him

Our Daddy/Husband left this week for the sandbox again!! Please pray for his safety and the safety of his marines! Pray that he will make the right decisions and come home safely and quickly to us! We miss you and love you lots!!

Happy Birthday Gabbie!

I can't believe that Gabbie is nine today! I know it's even harder for Robbie. I keep seeing the little 4 year old that I met when Robbie and I first started dating. It's amazing how much she has grown in that amount of time. I am so proud to be her stepmom!!

18 Month Appointment

Lauren had her 18 month appointment on Tuesday. I can't believe that she is already 18 months. Time flies when you are having fun I guess!!! Here are her stats:

Head Circ - 48 cm 90-95% Percentile

Weight - 24 lbs 4 oz 50 % Percentile

Height - 2ft 9.5 in 90-95% Percentile

Not sure where she got the height from. I'm assuming it's probably some of my mom's side of the family since everyone but her and my grandma are tall. She says a ton of words: Momma, Dada, Gabbie, Top, doggy, meow, kitty, bowl, what's this, out, up, bath, bed, cheese, no, yes, I know that there are a ton more but my brain isn't working right now. When I think of all of them I'll let you know!
