mid may

 so we’ve gotten pretty much one month down on the deployment checklist. casey has been to panama and peru so far. bought us some things made from alpaca . lets see…. 34 weeks down and 6 to go to finally meet Lola Sophia. We are all so excited. i’ve been doing a lot to prepare and get the kiddos ready.

Isabella. Goodness, she is graduating from kindergarden in 2 weeks. she is so excited! i am too. wow shes such a big girl. she has become such a good reader and an excellent artist. i am so proud of her.

Roman. Being really bratty but i think its because of the new baby. i think he will do a lot better when he gets into preschool and around other kids his age. his hair is blue now. such a cutie.

james blonde…. lol

my slow internet

i’ve been sitting for the past 2 hours watching my video game slowly download… 

Casey has been gone for almost a week. feels like way longer but eh, what can you do. i’ve been trying to keep busy. i bought a bunch of cute cloth diapers and hope i can stick it out for at least a year with the cloth diapers and much longer with breast feeding. this is my last week of work so i’m trying to use these last 8 weeks to get things in order for the kids and for baby Lola. 

Lola Sophia. I have finally chosen a name for this booger. i am 32 weeks and as big as a whale. i’m experiencing a lot of pain but trying to stay on the healthy track of food. lately i’ve had no appetite. i’ve just been staying hydrated and munching on crackers. i just need a few more things for her. Isabella is a wonderful helper with me . Roman, it varies from day to day. hes a good boy but too much like his father. this is going to be one heck of a summer. at least i have caseys family to support me emotionally. i really need it. 

i’m trying to get together some things for caseys first care package. i want to make it nice and fun for him. fathers day is coming up in june so maybe he will get it before then:). 

deployment blues

well hes off . im a bit down and time is going slow. i just need to get some energy so i can preoccupy myself and still keep the kids from getting sad. :(

oh, roman

“so yea , after you go to the doctor and get the baby out… can we go to the park?” hahhaha it must be so simple roman, get it and get out. love him:).

my big kid

isabella read her first fortune cookie today…. she read ” get over it!” then looks up and says get over what? lol. love her.

Bizzy month

holy crap this month has flown by. getting ready for caseys deployment on top of everything else. my lovely wonderful first born will be 6 years old on friday, (march thirty she says). she is already reading and writing so well and excelling in math . i just can’t believe how well she is doing in everything. she is getting better and better moving on from somethings in her life to more positive things. 

roman. ahh mona, he is completely potty trained to a tee. well he has been for months now just updating my life blog ( which i need to do more often). he will start preK soon. i know hes ready for kindergarden but his age is making him stay another year behind bella. at least when he gets to go he will be more than ready. he has his jerk moments but for the most part hes a very sweet boy. i’m not sure how he is going to handle not being the “baby” anymore. 

baby X. this is what my sister and i describe the unknown baby in the belly. getting big and growing a lot. moving a lot too, like kicking my bladder on the regs. this pregnancy hasn’t been the best but its my last one so i’m trying to make the best of it. i was blessed with 2 easy previous ones with 2 great babies. now i feel this will be difficult and probably a colic baby lol. just my luck. all that matters is that i’m happy, i’m loved, and i have a great family support system.
