Catching up on the catch up

I have so many things I need to catch up on and so many things I want to elaborate on but for now it will be short and sweet which I think people like, right?


Troys brother and his wife sent Chandler a birthday present and BOY WAS HE EXCITED FOR IT! They sent Hinckley a gift too which I thought was very thoughtful of them. For some reason Hinckley really struggled during Chandlers birthday. I think it had a little bit to do with the fact that daddy missed his birthday this year. *SIGH* BUT HE WILL BE HERE NEXT YEAR FOR HIS BIRTHDAY!!! YAHOO!
Woops some how these got mixed up


It was a Thomas the Train pillow pet. Chandler LOVES ANYTHING TRAINS! LOVES THEM! THANK YOU UNCLE TRAVIS AND AUNT JENNY! YOU ARE THE BEST!A few Saturdays ago we took Daddy to the aquarium in town. He was such a trooper because #1 Chandler peed through his diaper on his shoulders. YUCK! #2 He watched the boys while I ran to K-mart to buy new pants for Chandler and trying to watch these 2 at the aquarium alone is tough they both want to run in different directions. Don't worry we scrubbed Troy down pretty good. Thank goodness he had the jacket picture below that he could just take off his other shirt and put this on!

After the aquarium we rode the train to the zoo but we decided to just ride it to the zoo and back I guess we were all a little tired. PS we went to show our year membership to get into the aquarium and I was shocked to find out I didn't put Troys name on it. It was one of those moments of oh yeah thats right you were gone a year... THAT SUCKED BAD. I am glad you are home. I hope none of you ever have to go through a deployment because they are horrible. WAY TO GO RACHEL D. FOR MAKING IT THROUGH WITH ME! And any other military mommas who read this blog! We have been listening to this radio station that is playing Christmas songs and there is this one song that Josh Groban sings,"I'll be home for Christmas" and it has soldiers on it saying, I am going to miss my 4 year old this year opening presents, I want to give a shout out to my family back in Alabama, Etc. Troy and I both cry like babies when it comes on. Tears of pain of him missing last year, tears of joy knowing he is home THIS year, and tears of sorrow for those still over there. GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS AND KEEP THEM SAFE. Okay now I am all tearing up just thinking about the song.

Okay side tracked. Sorry... Look at this picture. Is it not precious of 2 of my favorite boys?!

Doesn't Hinckley look so GROWN up in this picture. Oh man I CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF THIS KID! LOVE HIM TO PIECES!
This is at the aquarium steering the boat
Oh I guess I liked this picture so much I put it on here twice!
Friday nights are my absolute favorite now! I use to dread them when Troy was gone. A few Fridays ago we rented a dance wii game and laughed and laughed and laughed until I almost peed my pants. Not really since having my 2 boys something has changed with my bladder. OKAY! SORRY TMI I know but does anybody else have that problem? It totally bites! I can barely jump on a trampoline anymore.
SIDE TRACKED AGAIN! Okay I am focusing... No really I am going to focus

This is Chandler at the mall a few weeks ago. As we went in the doors we saw this little beauty just sitting there with no little kid to play with so we snatched it up and he was in HEAVEN driving it. HEAVEN I tell you
We also stopped by Best Buy. Can you tell they are related?! LOL!
