Another day another dollar.

YAY ITS PAYDAY. I went to the commissary this morning and it was actually quiet in there lol. It's supposed to be 61 today so I might take the kiddos to the park. Its exactly 30 days til our move, so that means we are putting in our 30 days notice to housing. Im so excited about that. I have lots to do to get ready and only less 25 days to do it.
Tomorrow i have to go back up north to get my new plates and tags from the dealership. Oh joy i was kinda hoping that they would mail them to me. OH WELL... We need a day to get away from the phone. Ds work keeps calling him to come in when hes off work for stupid crap. so it would be nice to be away from the phone for a couple hours. We have to put Ds car in the shop to get brakes replaced and a tune up so it will be road ready.
Alex and Samantha have actually been rather quiet the past 2 days. ( knock on wood).
Hopefully D will be back on days on Monday or I'm gonna be uber pissed.
Grats to my friend Mandy and her hubby. Their dog is the cutest dog on Tinker this month. Miss Rosie is a doll. I just might go steal her. Muahahaha. but then again my "wifey" can get really mean and I don't want to get her mad. LOL.

Busy week.

My new baby, Mom got here Wednesday afternoon. It was sleeting and snowing and she wasnt wearing a jacket lol. So we took her out to Chili's for lunch and to walk around Arundel Mills Mall in Baltimore.

On Thursday mom and I had our girls day out. we went to Lenny's for lunch then out to Point Lookout to see the Lighthouse. We walked around the little beach near by where ppl have seen a ghost of a lady walking around looking for graves. We were all alone and we heard footsteps behind us. The wind wasnt blowing anything to make a crunching sound. IT WAS AWESOME. Then we went to Leornardtown and drove around for a bit before coming back to town to do a little bit of shopping,

Friday was my birthday. D got me a new digital camera. I got new shirts and pants from Mom and Terry. Peggy sent me some birthday money ( don't know what ill spend that on just yet lol). Oh and D got a cake. yeah I kicked his arse for it to. D and I had our night out. We had dinner at Lone Star. The food was pretty good. I had me a strawberry daiquri. I deserved it since it was my 26th birthday.

Today we all went to the Air museum outside the base then had lunch at Cheeseburger in Paradise. The food was good. But out waiter sucked lol. we ended out day at Point lookout again so D and the kids could see it. Yeeeeah that lasted 5 minutes cus everyone else was cold and wouldn't look around with me. .. chickens... lol.

Tomorrow mom goes home. Poor Alex he didn't want Gramma out of his sight all weekend. Poor thing wouldnt even go number 2 on the potty. so we finally got him going again today. So he's all better. We thought there was something wrong with him. But we figured out that the problem was that he didnt want to leave grandma. Cus everytime we'd say go to the bathroom Alex, hed scream for her and wouldnt go unless she was with him.. Poor guy. Grandma prolly feels bad because of it. And she shouldn't. he's just a stubborn guy.

Sami has really enjoyed her visit. Always hanging around gramma. And gramma got to see that Sami has developed a very loud personality LOL. Poor sami got to learn that Gramma doesn;t put up with her back talk either. Sami got real mad when Grandma called her on it lol.

Let me say that it was real nice to have them crawling on someone else for a change. We are planning a visit for May once everything is settled in Florida. I could use a vacation now that i have a vehicle that i can travel in. I hope everyone had a nice weekend. Cus i know we sure did,

My baby

After much debate Deryn and I have decided to add to our family. Thats right I got a new car the other day LOL. Had all u guys going didn't I? D and I felt that with the kids getting bigger and I planning on traveling more, that we needed a bigger car. So we bought a 2008 Hyundai Santa Fe. We got a heck of a deal on it if i may say so. I love it. It has xm radio, automated headlights, radio controls on the steering wheel, and we added a dvd player for the kiddos. On the way home from picking it up today the kids watched wall-e and omg they were so quiet. Best 16 hundred bucks ive ever spent lol. of course deryn is finding every excuse under the sun to get out of the house just to take my car for a spin. LOL Only thing i wish i had on it was a GPS system just to drive D crazy LOL.

Mom will here tomorrow.
Deryn ordered me a birthday cake. Im scared to see what he picked out cus hes been laughing evily about it for the past 2 days.

And Alex is getting his 4 yr molars. Oh yeah thats so much fun.

First hair cut

Sami got her first haircut today. I was very impressed with her. I expected her to fight it. Nope she was a big girl and sat very still for the most part lol. Ill have pics as soon as i get them developed LOL. She got her hair trimmed up and has some bangs. Girl can see now lol.
I have an appointment next Friday to get mine trimmed and highlighted. That will be a great birthday treat.

This weekend Deryn and I are planning on driving up to Salisbury to test drive a car that we've been looking at. It's the only one we seem to agree on LOL.

A nice sunny day

I got lucky and the weather was 70 today. So i forced the kids outside to play just to stay out of my hair. Too bad we are having storms come in late tonight and it will be cold again tomorrow. /sigh.
Anyways I think i may have insomia. I find myself not going to sleep til almost 6 am now. I hope its just the excitement for the move. Im still gonna bring it up at my docs appoitment when i make it for my other problem.
So yeah housing at Mayport called and told D that they "didn't" recieve his paperwork. This being after he called after he sent it and they said they got it. ./sigh. Hopefully that got straightened out.
I'm not looking forward to V-day. (sorry Mandy.) I have my reasons. ( and Mandy my "wifey" made a cake without me so thats one of them LOL).

Samantha's birthday.

So here it is. I finally got around to having a family blog so that our friends and family back home can keep updated on our adventures.
Samantha had her 3rd Birthday yesterday. It was good only Kari was sick and spent most of the day in bed. we didn't get any pictures because Deryn forgot to get a camera. We are planning on having another party when Mom comes to visit next week. So I promis we'll have pictures then.
Sami got a new dress and shirt from Mommy and Daddy. A mermaid barbie from Alex. A kitchen/cleaning set from Great Gamma. Princess pjs and a bear from Grandma and Grandpa. And this weekend we are going to pick out gifts from Meemee and PaPa. Thank you all for the gifts and the cards. She had a great birthday. We had pizza for dinner and Dora the explorer cake and icecream.
She is growing up so fast. Sami is talking more clearly and is going number one in the potty. Unlike when Alex started potty training, she's doing this on her own. She also knows her ABC and likes to pick out and put on her own clothes.
Alex is great. He is fully potty trained (except for the night time). He will be starting Kindergarten in August. Kari is looking forward to a quiet house during the day but also isnt ready for Alex to start school.
Kari is good. She will be turning 26 next week. She is planning on going back to school herself. Kari is starting to get real serious about losing weight. She has lost 7 pounds since Jan 1. But has slacked off in the past 2 week cus of everyone being sick in the house. She does plan on getting back on track once everyone is well.
Deryn is doing good also. He has been busy with work getting everything ready for the move to Florida.

Hopefully I'll keep this blog updated. But you all know how real life goes LOL.

Love to all,

Deryn,Kari, Alex and Sam.
