My baby is 1:(

My baby Ezekiel James turned 1 on Deceber 17, 2009. We had a HUGE party planned with at least 20 guests who RSVP'd. We were so excited and had even bought two cakes to feed everyone! But guess what? It got SNOWED OUT! NO ONE COULD COME! POOR ZEKE! POOR US! * that is a LOT of cake to eat*. Our neighbor and her 3 children did come and they played and ate cake and did presents. It turned out to be a quite little party. Maybe next year it won't snow out right?

So exciting!

My cousin Shanna is having Little John today! I am so excited for her and her husband for the many blessings a child, especially little boys:), bring to a famiy. What joy they must be experiencing! It brings me back to when I was in labor with Gabe. It was a very bittersweet moment for me as my husband wasn't there when he was born. In fact, Aaron wasn't home until Gabe as about 5 months. I am so happy for Shan and John that John gets to be there. I am also so greatful that Aaron was able to be there when Zeke was born. My heart is filled with such joy for them as they embark on the best adventure that life throws...children! At the sametime my heart is full of tears of joy remembering the births of my two precious babies and thinking that my little guy will be 1 in 1 1/2 months..:(

It is hard to believe that my baby Zeke will be 1 soon:( I hate to think about it. Makes me want to have another one already! I have started working out and going to Weight Watchers with a good friend that had a baby about the same time I had Zeke. We both want to loose some weight before we have more kids. I still have baby weight to loose from Gabe and he is 5!!! Shows you how fast time flies. I know it isn't an excuse for not loosing the weight though:)

Soon Gabe and Zeke will not be the only great grandchildren either. My beautiful cousin Shanna is due anyday with her first baby Little John:) I am so excited for her and her husband John. What a blessing little boys are! She is going to make a great mommy:) It is sad to think that we are all grownup, married, and having kids! I remember her and I just being little girls. Oh well:(

Gabe is very excited for Halloween. He is going to be a spider and Zeke is going to be Eeyore!

Will post pics after Halloween!!

Much needed update

Sorry it has been so long! Gabe start Kindergarten and he loves it! We walk to school every morning with our neighbor who is in Gabe's class as well. Zeke is getting big. He is getting his first tooth and trying to crawl. He is 9 months old already! I had my birthday and Aaron got me a GPS and I was so happy. It was something I had been wanting for awhile. He also started his new job. YAY! No more military bull crap!!!

Too long!!

I can't believe it has been so long since I wrote a blog!!! Guess we have been pretty busy at our house! Gabe starts kindergarten on Wed!!!! He and I are both excited!!! Aaron will be getting out of the Navy in Oct. and will be getting a "real" job!!! And I am looking into going back to work a few nights a week, just to help get my student loans and the cars paid off. We are trying to get our "debit" paid off ASAP so we can start to invest and enjoy all that extra money!!!

The boys are growing quickly!! Before I know it Zeke will be 1 !!! I can't believe it!!! And my BABY is going to school....some days I am excited about it...other days I get sad...

Other than that, we have been enjoying having Aaron's brother and wife close to us. They now live in VA and we love spending time with them.

Our 7 year anniversary is coming up, August 31!!! And I will be 27 Sep 8th!!
