Finally!

So after months of trying to figure this blog thing out I have got it! hehe... One of my new years resolutions was to keep our family updated on our life out here in NV. I wanted to do that on here, that way they can come online and check out what we are up to rather than try to call and most likely miss them or interrupt dinner or wake them up. (stupid west coast)

I have lost a total of 50+lbs from my pregnancy. 40 more left! All of this weight loss is thanks to a better diet and Breast feeding!! I am so thrilled that I have lost so much! Now the real task begins: working out or more like... making time to work out! So happy we have a pool at our complex, and in a couple weeks I will be going out there to get a hour a night workout along with going on the elliptical for 30 mins!

My little lover boy

"Standing" in his crib

Oh man... He didn't want to go to bed.
Update on Jeremiah, he is 15lbs! And in the 75% overall of his age group! I love my boy!

So our new suv... Brad hates it. I love it, but it doesn't have enough room. But we did get out of the high apr from the Camry and got a brand new car along with enough space for the dogs in the back when we drive. Overall I think it was a good purchase, when it gets paid off I'm getting a bigger suv though or a mini van pimped out... 
Rims, and lowered... Fiber carbon hood

Love this!!!
Yeah that's a tv in there...

I would never want to get out!
I just had wayyy to much fun looking up those photos. Hahaha!
I hope you enjoyed today's post! I had a blast writing and updating you all! Tomorrow I'm going to upload videos! Yesss!!

Off to make my spicy manicotti and some homemade vanilla butter bread! Yummmy!

3 Months Already??

It has been three months since our little man was born! He was weighed Tuesday and he now is at 14lbs 17oz and 25.5in!! God is good!! And as I type this he is chilling out in his little bounce chair relaxing telling me about his day!

In that time we have battled with two types of infections for myself, dealt with him not wanting to nurse, packing up our home, flying by myself with a newborn, Brad driving across country with two dogs and a full car, living in temporary housing that smelled like wet dog for a week, and moving into our new home.

Sure a lot to deal with in only a couple months!

On the plus side... God has brought us through with flying colors! And we are doing good out here, we even got a new SUV with a very very low interest rate, so much better than the Toyota!!

We are all doing very well!! And we just wanted to update you all! Love yous!!!

Pregnancy!!!

Okay I want to rant!

Pregnancy tips for the husband (and any other male):

* raspberries & milk are love when you are hungery but not hungery enough for a full meal
* when the dog smells to the preggy wash it, or she shall vomit
* "please go away" or I will fight you and wave my taser in your face
                                         (when taser not available gun may be used)
* don't by any means in the mist of an argument tell me that my hormones are acting up again, you WILL die
* I will eat as I please, so stop telling me not to eat what I'm eating when I'm eating, either I'll do it now or snack on something when your not looking that will be a lot worse than what I first wanted
* you are not pregnant, stop using me as an excuse for your mess ups (including being late or wanting a day off from work to "bring me to the dr")
* back massages are gold, please offer one at least once per day, I mean come on we are carrying your child.
* housework is hard enough as it is when we aren't pregnant, clean up after yourself and help with chores in the house it's a nice gesture and it's helpful
* if it's summer and your hot, most likely we are 10,000* warmer than you are so don't have the windows down when it is 100+ outside are you out of your mind???
* ask to help if you don't your just mean
* go to appointments with us and don't make a big fuss out of it, it's not fun for us it's like you going to the dr every week for 9 months before pushing a golf ball out of you know what so please be considerate 


Ehhhh... going to bed.

We are 36 weeks 37 on Monday. The baby is doing well, kicking away like crazy and crushing my bladder just like the first trimester. Pictures to come!
Can't wait for him to come and for us to be parents!
Also ready for our big move so he can have his own room and I can have fun painting!
We are currently looking for one of those big rugs that have the roads and houses to put in his room if you see any online that are a good price please call message etc!
We would love to have one in his room! They are just so cool!

Well once again going to bed... God bless you all!

Wow...

So I have come to the conclusion that I have no freaking idea how to use this blog. If anyone would like to help me out here please call me! PLEASE!!!

So anyways, as most of you know we are having a little BOY!! And thankfully a year after birth this one will hopefully be able to speak somewhat unlike our other little boy whom just peed at my feet all of 10 mins ago.
So the scoop on the new little bundle of joy... he makes mommy have to go to the bathroom a lot, he also makes me very tired, very hungry, and when I'm sleeping wakes me up at 4 in the morning... maybe this is God's way of preparing me?
So we know our new base, the baby shower was great thank you Aunt Judy and Aunt Jan and also Gram for throwing us that lovely shower (I wish it wasn't so hot though I was exhausted!), Brad is now in tech school till the end of August, I'm finding tons of things to do and my little projects are taking up a lot of time!
Bradley at Tech School



So if this isn't perfect to represent Bradley at tech school I don't know what is!
He seems like he's doing well. He's only been there since Sunday (July 19th), he lets me know everyday that he doesn't like school and that he's tired.
I'll be sending him a little care package in a week or so. We'll see how that helps!

Well Mosley and Maggie are doing well too! I know how much everyone loves them! I'll be adding a video and some photos of the two of them in the next day or so. Please be looking for that update!

Well I'm off to enjoy the night by myself! Roomate is out for the night so that means.... LAUNDRY ALL NIGHT!! haha so much fun. lol

Night Ya'll! God bless and hope to hear from you soon!!!

AHHHH!!!!

It's getting close! What you may ask is getting close? Finding out what the baby is, baby shower, Brad leaving for training, his return, then baby Whitehouse being born, our moving... wow... and on top of all of that finding out when Brad will deploy... ugh...

Like I said before, this year is sure going to be a crazy one!!!

UPDATE ON BABY: Gummy bear will NOT stop moving!!! OMGoodness!!!

More updates to come

Well we are moving AGAIN!!!




This time our move isn't in the same city or anywhere on the east coast to be exact... Our new duty station is Creech AFB Nevada! Most likely living on Nellis AFB Navada(has housing)


I'm still getting used to the fact that I will not be as close to family and will really have to make friends on my own this time. We don't know any families out there and Brad is pretty sure that none of his co-workers will be going out that way either. But, we are trying our best to be positive. For instance the dry heat out there will keep me from having severe allergy attacks, and most likely I'll have a tan year round! lol


We are still planning on going home (New York and Florida) once a year to each place, we just need to get our finances lined up. We feel that God is moving us out there for a reason, what that reason is we will find out in his time.


We also just found out that our tour over there could very well be 3-4 years rather than the 2 they originally told Bradley when he signed for this job. Like I said though It's fine, we will find a way to see you all! We will have the skype camera up and going when we move out there! And will be emailing and mailing photos and letters to family who would like to keep in touch!


Other than that! I know you are all dying to hear news about the baby!

We find out what the little Gummy Bear is June 25th!!! We heard the heartbeat this past visit and it was amazing. Although the Dr didn't give us very long to listen (new dr we are going back to the original lady for the apt on the 25th) we are going to ask the next visit if we can hear again! Very excited!


We can't wait to see what we are having... I'm guessing girl, and Brad's guessing boy(even though he really wants a girl, ask him he'll tell you! LOL) and with co-workers and friends its half and half... we'll see!!!


Well I'm off to do something with my day... maybe clean or maybe just chill out online to find more info on my  new base... yeah that sounds good!!! Ta-Ta for now!

Two years and 13 weeks and counting!

Our anniversary is in TWO DAYS!!! Our two year wedding anniversary is on April 24th! We are so excited that we have made it this far! They say that the first 5 years are the hardest, and whoever they are they sure are right! Money problems, job changes, car wrecks, arguments, and so much more but God has gotten us this far already! And we are excited to see what is happening in the future!!
                                   *********************************
The baby is doing fine! And so are we!! Our next apt is on May 14th (unless I can get it moved up a week!) Our little "Gummy Bear" as we like to call it is 13 weeks old, according to the Doctor and is growing perfectly fine.
(Gummy Bear at 10 weeks... Sorry it's so big I wanted you to be able to see it close up! lol)
We have started looking at baby things, and looking at baby names. So far we have found this stroller, this furniture set, and a few other things. Everything is going to be gender neutral for the solid pieces so we can use them again. And we like the blues and the greens even for a girl!

Other than that the dogs are misbehaving as usual, I'm eating more food than I should but it's all healthy foods for the most part, and well Brad and I are doing great.
I can really feel Jesus working in our lives, and together we are working on helping each other with everything that is going on!

Oh yes and Brad's retrain date is in July! About a month after we find out what we are having!!!
Please pray for our growing family, you all are in our prayers too! God bless you all! I'm going to go spend some time with the hubby!!!
