On Your Way Home- Day 20

Well... Today was a way long day at the store... JJ was on something was the energizer bunny or something... He got is own name badge and was so proud of that...

This pic was from a few minutes ago, and now you have officially crossed over into New Mexico... JJ is excited...He is trying to stay awake and that won't happen... 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..
