my once in a blue moon update,lol

let see, where to start. tyler had his surgery last month. hes all fixed now waspretty well behaved ont he plane too and from seattle, and while we were there. igot lots of comments like "wow hes so good" and so on. i got to hang out with teresa again. shes great! we went to a place called the rock . its a pizza joint, it totally awesome and i recomend it to anyone. then of course we HAD to go to WALMART while i was there,lol. there and target. i seriously bought 20 boxes of mac and cheese for the boys. its 1.90 or something like that here, it was only .63 there. anywho. what elese. oh we signed logan up for tball and we are just waiting to hear when practices start. the snow is FINALLY MELTING. KNOCK ON WOOD! so hopefully it willbe soon. I have recently been appointed the new ombudsman of the anacapa. woohoo!! im excited and have been busyalready trying to make sure that people get the information that they need. tyler got his first hair cut last week, hes so handsome. still my baby, but hes just looks so darn cute! jason will be going to school in south carolina in a few weeks. so he'll get to be all hot and sweaty while we are stuck in the cold for a month or so without him. oh joy.

i almost thought i was done, but im not. guess thats what happens when you dont blog for a while. im still continuing on my weight loss journey. i started weight watchers back up 2 1/2 weeks ago. as of friday i had lost 4 lbs comming in at 138. but of this morning im down to 136. yay!! seriously thats 2lbs away from my initial goal.i can tell already that its not gonna hurt to loose a few more . so afteri get to 134, then i'll shoot for 5-10more

I'm going to be an aunt, again!

i received a wonderful email this morning from my sister rachel and her husband aaron. they are expecting their first child in october!! yay!! he thinks its going to be a boy and she thinks its going to be a girl. but they are going by the chinese predictor calenders. kinda hard to do when you arent exactly sure wich day you got pregnant,lol. anyways im so happy for them and i hope they can make it back to the states some time this year so maybe we can see them. they are stationed in germany

february

now that this month is half over i guess i should post,lol. like i said in previsou post,im bad aboutkeeping up on this thing. so whats new with us you ask?? well logan started arena wrestling in the begin ning of the month. hesgetting better. he needs to learn to focus more ont he wrestling than playing with his friends. a boy from his class goes too and its so funny to watch themgo at it. lets be honest , give a boy permission to fight or wreslte and they are happy as clams. tyler is not only walking now but running. we are working onthe talking but he'll do everything in his own time (as he has done thus far). . jason finally came home this weekend. so i had him for valentines day! yay! logan had no idea that he was comming in. tyler on the other handi think knew.he woke up sat morning saying dadadada,lol. logan wasnt happy that he was having to go to the airport with me, i toldhim we were picking up miss hollie. he wanted to go play with his friend odysseus. so i got there and tld him that hollie had a big surprise for him and he had to shut his eyes tight. so we get there and i led him in by the hand and stood him right in front of jason and told him to open his eyes. SURPRISE!! its daddy not hollie! hes been stealing all his daddys attention since he came home. doesnt want to let anyone else snuggle without him there too. even mommy. lil turd. so we've been relaxing spending family time all weekend, its sooo nice

tylers surgery

soty's surgery is finally schedualed for march 17th. we donthave orders yet though b/c the guys just got back from baltimore. they dont go back to work till the 25th. so im not sure how this is all going to work. hopefully it wont take too long and we'llhave our itenary for the plane trip there. im sure i'll probally just stay at the same hotel i stayed at last time since it was only 5 minutes from the hospital. i was going to be at the hospital waiting by myself, but a friend of mine there in seattle that i met on coastie chicks will be comming to sit with me during tylers surgery. thank god, i hate waiting by myself. the dr said its a fairly minor procedure and we should be able to leave the hospitalt he same day. yay!

vacation 2010!

so we were going to take a big trip this year and go to disney, to visit my sister in cali and then home to va and nc to visit family. well jason is in mexico with the boat right now and he has decided to nix the summer vaca this year. he said that instead of taking the big vacation this year, he wants to save that money, take the kids to one of our parents and then him and i go to mexico or somewhere else in the carribean by ourselves!! you wont hear any complaining out of me! so now instead of making plans for disney im searching for vacation deals, i know its early but i wanna know where we are gonna go and how much its gonna cost. i would love to go home but jason said he doesnt know if we can do it. we can use miles and companion ticket and onbly have to pay like 850. but that means we have to choose between going to see my sister in cali or going to see my dad in va. decisions decisions

if its not one thing its another

so we came home from vaca and tyler had pink eye and a cold. a week later logan had pink eye and missed 2 days of school. well now this week logan is sick yet again and missing school. he complained alst night of his tummy hurting and he had a low grade fever of 100.8. so this morning, GUESS WHAT!? he still doesnt feel good and still has a fever. so hes lounged out on the couch being a grumpy bear. he keeps yelling at ty when he "bothers" him. like ty really understands that brother doesnt feel good and doesnt want to play. if he keeps that crap up he'll be spending the day in his room camped out there instead of my couch.

on a good note the weahter hasnt been too horrible a nd we had 2 wonderful days this week. so atleast we had some outside fun for a bit.

boy im bad at this

wow im really terrible at keeping up wit this blog thing. so heres updates. we just got home from vacation in north carolina and virginia. it was greatto see everyone. i spent way too much money im sure. but its money i wont be spending on things int he futre now as i bought stuff for the house we needed and clothes for me i needed. since i have lost so muchwiehg that none of my clothes fit properly:D. anywho, christmas was quiet, we hadour usual family dinner at dads and then did christmas morning wich was small seeing that logan and tyler where the only 2 kids there. the still got spoiled though,lol. then we headed to nc to see mom and other family and friends for the new year. i got to hang out with my bestest friend erin who i hadnt seen in years. i stayed with her the whole week i was there. we got home this past wedensday. it wa a long trip but well worth it. so now we are home in the cold. it snowed alot while we were gone and alotsince weve been home. this kids love it of course. theyve been out playing in the snow alot
so now that we are home im trying to plan a trip to disney and to visit the family this summer. i hope it all works out. it will help break our tour up as well
