What the..

For the past year or so we have been waiting to see if we will be moving with the military. About 3 months ago, I gave up on the idea because nothing was happening, and I was sick of living like I would be moving soon. Stu left for training at the end of July for about five weeks, came home and just got back from another two week training where they informed him that most likely he would be getting year long orders to move out to California (Ft. Hunter Ligget) in Southern Monterrery county, sometime soon..........so I say I will believe it when I see it. So we might be moving soon? Well either way I'm annoyed, excited and stressed about it. I guess we will just continue to wait to see what happens. In other news I just got back from my trip to Michigan where Eleanor and I spent a whole week with my bfc (best friend cousin) Terra and her little girl Jocelyn. It was a lot of fun and nice to get away for a minute. Ava is in preschool and ballet and loves both of them so much. She is so smart and fun. El has been saying tons of new words such as: princess, thanks, bless you, popsicle, oh my gosh, and oh cute! I just love my babies, and our new edition Molly dolly the pupster. She is so sweet and my girls love her too. Also since I may be moving out of state Im planning on updating my blog more. If we don't it will probably be back to the once every three months or so update:)

It's about time.....

I'm a blogging slacker.  The last couple of months have been a little crazy so I just haven't had time or even wanted to update. Let's see....Stu and I went to Zion's in April it was so much fun. We camped, road our bikes all over and just relaxed.  It was our first getaway since before I got pregnant with Eleanor. When we got home Stu built a chicken coop and we got eight chickens from my sister that were already laying eggs. We would get at least six eggs a day until one tragical day the dogs somehow got into the coop, or the chickens got out, we don't know what really happened but Tinkerbell is now dead and Fugly is even more ugly than before and Rosemary got half her neck torn off but is still alive and doing well.  After that they all kind of stopped laying for a while. We got 4 more little baby chicks that my girls love to chase around the yard they are so cute.  We planted a huge garden and a smallish herb garden. I really love it here.  I don't think we will be moving for a while.  A couple weeks ago we went to Las Vegas with Heidi and Branden and our kids. It was fun. The girls loved swimming at the condo and we just hung out and relaxed. Poor Heidi broke her arm tho. That sucked.  When we got home Eleanor decided to break her arm too! She was trying to be a big girl I guess and walk down the stairs instead of going bum's first, as Ava tells her to do, and she fell. It was a sad day.  I took her to the Clinic and they x-rayed her she fractured both bones in her arm. Now she has a purple cast and has to wear it for 3 weeks. Lame. That pretty much sums up the last 2 months.

My Hawaii Trip and more...

Ok so as you may know I got to go to Hawaii a couple weeks ago with my sister Shauna.  It was kind of a last minute, spur of the moment thing that happened and I was fortunate enough to go with her.  She has a friend that lives in Honolulu and we got to stay at her apartment and drive her car (which happened to be a convertible) around while she was at work.  It was a lot of fun and a well needed vacation for both of us I think.  We went on hikes, camped, and went to a different beach almost every day. We went on a full moon hike one night which was totally awesome because we saw a full rainbow at night(cuz the moon was so bright). We got to the top of the mountain/cliff thingy and the view was amazing. The moon light made the ocean water below just sparkle. Then it started raining so we climbed into an old WW2 bunker sort of deal that was at the top of the mountain, and ate cheese and crackers. It was fun. We saw  whale tails splashing out of the water a few times, a bunch of turtles swimming and one resting on the beach, and even heard a wild boar in the jungle that was getting ready to charge us so we ran fast. The weather was mostly lame and cloudy, but there were a few choice sunny hot days that we able to bask in the sun on.  It was a really fun trip but the last few days I was missing my girls and my man, and was ready to come home. Since I've been back Eleanor got another fever and had another seizure, so we spent last thursday night in the ER trying to figure out what was going on.  All her test came back fine,  we just need to figure out why she keeps getting fevers for no apparent reason. She got another fever yesterday(a week exactly after the last one)she hasn't been sick at all in between, and I was paranoid all day/night that she would have another seizure, but she didn't and her fever is finally going away now(I hope) And Stu is out of town, and so is my mom. So I'm doubly stressed of course. But I'm sure everything will be fine.
