I tried something new today!

For those of you who really know me, I normally do not try new things. I like my normal routine and normal foods but something at the grocery store caught my attention. Star fruit. It caught my attention because it was on sale. I love anything on sale so I thought I would try it. Kayle loves fruit but she is also picky. Well, I cut it open, (I had to read directions on how to do that), and then got all the seeds out and tried a tiny bite. To me a tiny bite is ok just in case it is not so good. I was pleasantly surprised. It reminded me of an apple mixed with a pear I guess. Kayle didn't want to eat it but was really amused with the shape. I am shocked that I would give it a chance but glad I did.

My thoughts

I have not written in awhile, busy with other things I guess... Life :) We sold our house and close on the 30th. It is very exciting but also a little sad. This home is where our children were born, celebrated holidays, and began our Navy life. So many memories! I am excited for the next phase of our life though. Monterey, CA here we come. New adventures and new memories.

I have also started (again) to potty train Kayle. Except this time it is for good, I am sure of it. She has been doing great and really loves to please her mommy. I love to watch her get excited about doing her business. It is not a fun process though, very tedious and constant monitoring. Well worth it though to get her out of diapers hopefully.

I don't know what else is going on. Life is good though :)

Weather

There is one thing I do not understand about Virginia and that would be the crazy weather. This week it has been all over the place and I am truly sick of it. Monday was a gorgeous 60 ish degree day Tuesday was a little cooler and Then Wednesday and today (Thursday) are bitter cold. I have never handled cold weather well, (I am from AZ and love the heat!), but this is to cold. The high today is around 30!!! How can 1 week be so drastic, seriously!!!??!!!

Oh yeah, and no luck with the house yet. However we do have time so not worried yet. Also, we should be getting orders this week, NPS could very well be official, yippee!!!

House for sale

You know you want it... A nice 3 bedroom 2 bath condo for sell. Who wants it ???? Our home has been on the market for just about 2 weeks now and we have had one couple look at it and one more coming next week. It is frustrating just trying to get people to come and look at it. We have plenty of time so I am not worried about it, we are just hoping to get the asking price. We will see! So if anyone out there knows any one moving to Virginia Beach, this is the place for them :) Check out the link as our home is now on public display :)

2 year olds are funny!

Kayle is a great observer of things. She has a new fun game she likes to play with me. Kayle is the mommy and I am the baby. I cry saying "mommy, mommy.... waaaaaaaaaaaaaa" and Kayle, hugs me and pats my back saying "it's ok baby". She then tries to feed me, burp me and tells me that I just spit up. When I 'spit up' she finds a wipe and wipes my mouth. She then goes on to give me more hugs and love. I am just amazed at her. How cute is that???!!!

In this picture we were making something, I don't remember what but that doesn't matter. Anyways, she stirred and helped measure things and we had a great time just me and her. I took advantage of the time we had together when it was just the two of us. They grow soooooo fast and I love every moment of my life. I cannot wait to see what she'll say or do tomorrow!

The Mom song

I thought this was quite amusing... I laughed watching just thinking about the future.

life now

I know I have not written anything in awhile. Life is super busy, juggling 2 kids and trying to keep the house organized. I love it but it is hard to get used to when it was just Kayle and myself. Throwing in a newborn mixes things up quite a bit.

My life right now is really about cleaning up poop, feeding all the time, doing loads of laundry, and still cleaning the house and cooking dinner. Sometimes I get a nap in but not as often as I would like. Eventually I will write more. Makenna just woke up... back to feeding :)
