I may let him stay up till he see's your plane land, but that's it for him and me... I am way tired.. But hard to curb a little guys excitement :) I should be putting a new pic of your flight on here, but the page isn't loading... So stand by...1 hr and 8 minutes till you land in Vegas... Your on the final leg of your trip home...



Looks like you are getting ready to cross over the AZ border, JJ is just saying, airplane, Mommy, home, hill, Jesus Safe... I told JJ he should go to bed and he wants to watch airplane...


You are now in AZ headed to Las Vegas... You have less than an hour to see Jason and more than likely he is sitting there are the airport waiting for you and JJ knows that daddy is bringing Mommy home and he is happy about that...

33 minutes left from what Google Earth says and it is 10:48 right now... Our time that is...And BTW... JJ is still awake and fighting his sleep



JJ keeps yawning and yawning and just does not want to go to sleep till you land... I told him he has to after that... Poor guy... He only took a half hour nap on the way home, is so tired and then I wake him up so he will sleep tonight. But I think the adrenaline is getting the best of him and Mr Sandman is calling his name,lol... 23 minutes is all he has to wait... Not sure he will beat Mr. Sandman :) Poor Mister Mister... the picture below is at 11:07



Well, you have landed and JJ has sucummed to Mr Sandman... I am sure you will see him in the morning... Love ya and have a good night and WB...

Crazy JJ- Day 19

JJ has been a crazy guy today... He has been wanting to jump all over the place and having a good time... I think he knows that you are going to be home tomorrow nihgt... Soon you will be able to take over...

JJ seen a huge spider at Walgreens today and wanted it... I didn't have the money to get it, so he came home empty handed...

No Spongebob for JJ- Day 18

Well, this morning JJ was pretty good even though he couldn't watch Spongebob... Which is more than ok with me... But he decided to sleep in or lay quietly... I kinda made a fib to him about what would happen if he got off the bed, lol... He still believes it, so I will leave that one alone...

Other than that, we didn't do a whole lot... I had to go to your store to drop off the key. But JJ and I made a fun time of it all...We had to have Pastor Dean come and help us hide the key and then JJ and I went over and had a very expensive dinner. We had tacos and Del Taco... How can ya beat 39 cents? But it was good and tacos taste better when they are cheap... It was a good thing we forgot the juice at your store... JJ was way thirsty.... On the way home JJ kept say Momma, Airplane, fast, home, hill... He is excited and we started a countdown... So he knows you will be home in 2 days...

But JJ stayed the night in my room tonight and he is finally laying down... I think he was just wound up from the day and fighting sleep. he sure is a cutie... But we will see you in a couple days... Love ya

Applications, Tiredness and Sleep- Day 17

Well, we woke up at 7 am... This is getting to be old really fast... But you will be home soon and that will be nice I am sure... Although it will still be 7 am mornings... But we went to get applications from people who wanted jobs... It went pretty good all in all... There are some off the wall people... We had breakfast at Albertos and then after all was done, we came home and slept... I was way tired and now we are getting ready to go to bed again...

Just a Monday- Day 16

Wow, the countdown is here now... You will be home pretty soon and JJ is waiting... He didn't really do much today... Since Jason didn't work and your dad and I had to go into town to scan his work... Bridgette did take some pics of JJ with her now in her hands camera... But this is it for today...

Spent Time With Daddy- Day 15

Nothing really too much went on today... I slept most of the day while JJ spent time with daddy... It looked like JJ really liked that alot. They came home and we had a BBQ... We made Hamburgers, Corn on the Cob and Chips... Craig and Bridgette came over for the BBQ... It was kinda of a spur of the moment thing... Nothing big, it was what it was... Then JJ hanged out with me and watched the Dodgers play San Francisco... I think SF won... Bummer on that, but what can ya do... JJ was happy, thats all that mattered to him...

Only a few more days and then you will be home... Yeahh on that...

Quizno's and Naptime- Day 14th

Today was somewhat calm, but I am very tired... I actually didn't do much until it was time to go get Chuck and then JJ and I went over to Quiznos to take pics... I'm gonna make this a short blog since you know what happened and I am beyond tired...


I have a ton of pics for day 14 and will have them on facebook for you...

Alot of Everything- Day 13

One Week Left




One Week LeftToday was a really full day for JJ... We started off by going to Quiznos... It was a mess but they are getting things done... JJ had fun looking around and being nosey and I think your dad was the same way... I was suppose to go get the keys from the contractor, but he only had one key so I have to come back to get it...

After that I went to Bridgettes to give her some food... We can't have a hungry Bridgette now can we... We actually met her at Lyndseys... Was a lot closer than her house. We then took Grandpa to his work and went back to McDonalds and played a bit and then we should have met the guy from the apartments, but he was not there... He was a noshow... I was not impressed with that at all... So off to McDonalds again... We stuck around long enough to see Beckiah and then to the park... Still not much accomplished, but playing around...

At the park JJ feel for this lady... Im sure he thought she was cute, lol... He played and played and I am sure he will sleep really good tonight... He will crash... Thankfully Jenn and Scott was thinking about us and brought drinks and yogurt from McDonalds. We only had breakfast and I had no money, so was happy about that... Really I was in the mood for Carlitos, but that was good... Thanks Jenn and Scott... We really appreciated it...

Back to Quiznos we went to see if the guy was done... NOPE... So I called Craig and asked him if he was going to take us out to eat... We went to Pirate Island Pizza and lets say that the place has gone down hill... Was not impressed at all... Not sure how they stay in business at all.

Now I am tired and waiting for JJ to discover that he is tired too...

A Clean Room- Day 12

Wow, who would have known that JJ would take a nap so easily... We cleaned his room today. We also went through cloths that were to small or just plan ugly and going to get rid of them... So cloths are hung and boy does he have tons of pants that fit him still... I don't think you will need to get him any for the winter Jessica and he has two drawers of shorts and lots of shirts. Not many for winter though. So I think you will have to get him some winter shirts.

But he is in his room sleeping right now on his nice clean bed with his flannel blue sheets that he absolutly loves for some reason... I took some pics of him taking his nap and will put them on here later one when your dad gets home with some batteries.

I'm starting his blog for today early because he is taking a nap... Which is GREAT. He woke up shortly after your hubby brought him in the room and would not calm down, not in a yelling way, but a singing way and doing his ABC's... This has gotten to be a regular morning thing I think... I finally got mad when he threw the remote behind the bed and of course he wanted to watch Spongebob and the stupid remote went to the middle of the bed on the floor... Ughhh... You know me and my lack of sleep issue... But I made a loud ughhhhh noise and JJ knew I was not happy, so he said sorry and acted like he was asleep... He is a smart cookie... But I am going to go now... I will finish this later in case you stop in here before todays is done...

Jennifer and Scott came over for dinner and JJ was happy about that...

SHUT UP- Day 11

Beware the pictures are a bit blurry, but had to take them fast before my camera died...

Well, today JJ learned a new expression... Not sure where he got it from or what he was watching... But he now puts his hand in the air up to your mouth and says Shut UP, Aunt Niece, Shut UP... After he did that, he was telling anything that made a noise the same thing... It was like "Talk to the Hand"... JJ has also taken up the habit that grandpa loves to do on Sundays... He loves the funnies..
Garfield seemed to be his favorite out of the funnies... Grandpa better watch out. If he is missing a part of the paper, he better look in JJ's room...

Other than that, we didn't do much. Grandpa too the van in so we just sat around the house doing nothing. Which is a good thing since I don't get to do that much... he played around in his room and his constant companion seems to be the penguin today... Gotta love it... Thanks to Chris at Shiloh's, he has this cute penguin...

He says he loves you and is singing his ABC's. Not in order, but he is trying... But over all he is fine and we had a day filled with cartoons that are getting way annoying around now...

So you have fun and love ya..

Sleepy Time- Day 10

Wow, it doesn't seem like we are already on day 10 of this blog... Has it really been that long... I am sure it feels like it to you Jessica...

But today was a lazy day and I tried to sleep and he was not seeing things my way at all... But we played the song Itsy Bitsy and he loved it and I know he misses you... Todays blog is kinda short... But I will put some pics of him on here... The pictures on todays blog was actually taken last night... So you are just now seeing them... I didn't want to load them till now... In this one... I am teaching him how to pray...

Here is a picture of the Itsy Bitsy Spider that JJ likes best and you can see why he always wants hats on spiders on his pictures...

This is still part of the video of the Itsy Bitsy... That spider makes his way all over the place...

Here you will see how intent he is on watching this video... The person who made it seemed to have done a good job on it... JJ loves it...


Miss ya and love ya

He says love ya momma, down hill...

A Monday- Day 9

Today started off like any other Monday... We went to get grandpas check and picked up Bridgette today and then went out to Denny's to have breakfast... I had the baseball pancakes and was really yummy. I ate all of my breakfast too... Grandpa and GG was very happy about that...

After that GG went to Walmart... Yeah, can you beleive it? She actually went to the worst store in the world and only because I needed diapers and pull ups... But I made out really good... GG got me two new outfits. One that has baseballs and the other is basketballs. It looks like a bulls jersey... GG couldn't find one that was like the Suns... She says I have to like them the best... GG is never wrong you know...

After that we went over to see Jenn at McDonalds and of course my sweet girl friend Zuriah.. You know I am pretty sweet on her don't you mom? We got something to drink and then GG had to meet the other Jenn at Carlitos... I had a busy day... As soon as we were on our way home, I feel asleep and now I am in the bedroom playing with daddy.

Quiet Day- Day 8

Today was a pretty quiet day around the house for the most part... GG stayed in bed most of the day because she wasn't feeling good... Dadda was mean because I wanted to get in the bathroom when he took a shower and I hurt my big toe because I was kicking the door. I guess it will be ok from what GG and Dadda say... We went over to Vinces house and didn't do much else today... Of course this is all in GG's words since I can't type any or say things that good...

love you momma, and see you soon from airplane...

Gg didn't take any pictures today because the camera needed batteries... So GG is putting a picture of Dadda and Me on here this time... love ya- GG loves ya too

Car Show - Day 7

Sorry this should have been posted on Saturday... But the internet went down so have to post today...

Car Show Day 7

Today we went to the car show in Enterprise… JJ had a very full day full of all kinds of excitement… We left the house way too early for my own good… Let’s say around 8am… Ughh, you know how I am about that…

We got all set up and JJ was watching all the cars come into the place where we parked at… He loved it… Then all of the sudden this guy from nowhere comes in with a snake… May I say a huge nasty snake…? They are not normal to have as pets… But JJ wanted to see the snake so bad, so I took him over to it and let him pet the middle and back end and stay away from the mouth… Not sure what kind of snake it was, but it was mega huge…

JJ was also ver excited about getting a dinasour tattoo that was airbrushed on... He was a little scared at first and the guy was funny. he was telling me hopefully his parents don't get upset over having it on him... Told him it was not a problem since they both have tattoos and JJ's will be gone in three days..

After that some girls came in with little pigmy goats…And of course off we went to go see them… JJ loved them… One of them is for sale even… They were way cute… JJ was fascinated by the horns… They were very sweet and gentle… They had them there for a petting zoo type of thing. JJ got to pet them all free of course…The video for today has him petting them at the show…

Then we got to the part of looking at the cars… It was an all day thing and JJ was particularly fond of the trucks and cars that had flames on them… His favorite one is the white Chevy with purple/blue flames on it…It's the one pictured here. The second was the 57 I think Chevy… It was red with flames, then he wanted a ride on a motorcycle and they wouldn’t let him sit on it, so that was not a happy moment for JJ at all…

Eventually we left around 3pm, a little bit sun burnt and exhausted… We went to Marvs for lunch and JJ almost feel asleep in the booth and literally did on his way home… We didn’t even get out of the parking lot till he was out…

Daddy met us at the gas station and then he went to have fun with daddy… He is definitely a daddy’s boy… But he misses you and loves you and was telling everyone that you are in Texas…

Not So Much Happening- Day 6

There wasn't much that happened today... JJ likes to watch the hill for mommie and daddie to come home and now he can say that mommie is in Texas rather than on the plane... That is a good thing... I think I will have to show him a map so he can visualize where you are at... Or a picture of the quiznos your at... If you have any, let me know and I can post it on here or show him...
He is very very excited about the car show tomorrow... he helped pack his lunch and was showing grandpa the car and how clean it is now... You know, he has to put in his two cents worth, lol... I wonder if he will be a good selling point for the Nova.. Put a cute kid around it and people will look... Hmmmm, wonder how that will be...
We were suppose to go on a picnic with Beckiah and the boys today, but since your dad stayed in, I didn't get there. I am sure she is mad... I will have to do that next week when your dad has a normal schedule... I will be taking pictures of JJ tomorrow at the car show and the cars he thinks is awesome... Look at this picture and see how much he has changed in just a little bit of time...

JJ says night momma, love you momma.

Thursday Activities and Crankiness Abound - Day 5

JJ did really good sleeping in my room last night... He slept well and till around 8:30 this morning... Did you hear me 8:30 AM Jessica... But he was in a happy mood. We went and did the normal Thursday activities at church... Poor Scott had to run around trying to catch him during the meeting.


Also I took some bath time pics for you... You know JJ... He loves his bath time... We really didn't do anything out of the ordinary...

Oh BTW... JJ has a new pet... You should have seen Jasons face when I told him that I got JJ a pet,lol... Its a fish... I couldn't put the pic on here till tonight when I was able to get a new tank, since the one in the package was broken... How was i gonna put his fish named Fish in the fish tank when it leaks...

He is being a mister cranky butt right now... I woke him up from his nap and he is not a happy person... Kinda reminds me of you when you were younger...

JJ is not in the mood right now to say much except NO BIG DOG... Jasper is by him and he doesn't like that at all,lol... All I am going to tell Jason is, GOOD LUCK, lol
heading over to YouTube to put up tonights video...

Who Says M&M's Don't melt in Your Hands? Day 4

Jason brought JJ into the room when he normally does and JJ wakes up around 8:30... he was la la la ing it... Otherwise singing to himself... After waking up he came into bed with me and thought it was a good idea to play hide and seek and ummm, lets say it is hard when he is laughing at hiding from Jasper and having me hide with him... So up we go...Jj wanted his favorite candy today and I gave him some... You remember that old commercial where M&M's don't melt in your hands, but in your mouth... Let me tell you that is a big fat LIE... He had them all over his mouth and hands... Yuck

We really didn't do much today... Got his room and carpet cleaned and it is all nice looking... Tommorrow or Friday I will go through his cloths and see what fits and what doesn't... After Jason gets home I will video JJ for your good night message from him...

I made a couple videos of JJ so I am uploading them now... JJ also just brought in a toy robot that looks like the one from the song IMMA B... I think we need to get that song out of his brain...

JJ's message to you is "Hi Momma, love you momma, airplane bye bye... And Imma B, Imma B... He says he likes to sing... Night Night Momma...

So, go to facebook and listen to his messages to you for tonight... There is gonna be two of them...Jj is going to sleep in GG's room tonight...

Dreaded Walmart and Olive Garden- Day 3

Well, today we went over to Craigs to see the damage to his apartment... It was really bad... So G-Ma and I and Uncle Craig went to Olive Garden. I had the cheese ravioli and of course with extra cheese on it... We also went to Walmart where G-ma got me a special surprise and she will put a picture on here of it when she gets it done... Thank you for calling me mommie, I love you...

Dinosour Museum and Haircut- Day 2

Well, today was a busy day for JJ and I... JJ was having a fun day today... JJ went to have breakfast with G-pa and G-ma at Sils and he ate 90% of his food... He had three pancakes, 1 piece of sausage, scrambled eggs and apple juice... He only left one piece of bacon and G-pa was ok with that... He ate it...
How do you like the ant that got on my mouth... It was really big huh?

After we ate breakfast we dropped off G-pa to his truck and G-ma and I and Uncle Craig went to the Dinosaur Museum... G-ma took pictures of me there for you momma, so you can see all the fun we had... Did you know they only have three toes and really big feet...

Also we went to get my hair cut. G-ma decided I needed a cool haircut and I can spike my hair... Pretty cool huh... I look good though... After that we met Jenn and Zuriah at McDonald's and I had more apple juice and G-ma wouldn't let me have any cookies or ice cream since I had such a big breakfast... Jenn and Scott is bringing over some pizzas for dinner... That will be good...


Tune in later for a good night message from JJ
