It's the unexpected events that have happened in our lives that have gotten us to where we are today. Whether or not they make a person stronger and more open to what life throws at them is up to that specific person. I want to share some of the events that happen, or have already happened in our lives. Welcome to our journey ;)....

5 month milestone

I figured I would post a couple of videos of my little bug trying to scoot and crawl. She has been doing this for a couple of days now. She got up on all 4's Saturday and just rocked back and forth. She is such a busy body, always trying to see what's going on and being nosey/curious. I give her another month before she has this down pat, hopefully! I don't really have time for a long update right now, but I will try to update soon. Me and Halle are going to Orlando this Friday with big Rusty, Kelly, Sara, Hayden, and Gabby so I probably won't update until I get back from vacation! Everyone pray that we have a safe trip!

Stormy Night

Yay... me and Halle survived our first stormy night in Enterprise! I am the world's biggest scaredy cat when it comes to stormy weather... I am the first one to pack up a bag and head off to a safe hiding place (which at our house now is a small closet only 2 people could fit in). It was lightening and thundering for hours! I got really nervous with the baby monitor being on and it being right there by Halle in her bed, so I folded up some covers and made Halle a little place to sleep on the floor beside our bed. She slept so good considering the loud thunder and rain crashing against the window. She's my brave little buggie :) Rusty had to get up at 3:30 that morning to go to flight line. We both knew that he wouldn't be flying in that weather, but it stinks b/c he still has to atleast show up before they send him right back home. He said that it was the hardest he has seen it rain since he has lived here. It was bad! I told Rusty that we are getting a weather radio b/c we can't hear the sirens from where we live and that would suck if a tornado was coming our way and we didn't even know. He thinks I over react about it, but he will be the first one wanting to have clothes and food out of my "emergency bag of goodies" if our house was to blow away. Heck, the "storm closet" is so small there might only be enough room for me, Halle, and Abby... I'm jk, I'm sure we could make room for him :) I was so proud of myself for making it through my first major storm... probably alot more to come when hurricanes start rolling in! I'm scared just thinking about it :/ Anywho, I don't know what's on our agenda for this wkend. We were supposed to go see Don and Amber and take her the bassinet and her present (which I was really excited about b/c I made something for her), but I'm not sure we are going anymore. Rusty also mentioned going to Mississippi to go see Kelly and Rusty b/c there is a big fight and big Rusty already rented it for Sat. night plus I think Hudson's has a little influence on us going there, as always. But, I told him that Jason and Sara are coming home on Sat. and they probably don't want a house full of people when they get home. They probably just want to unpack and relax from a long road trip. Who knows where we will end up! Just pray that we have a safe trip where ever we go!

July 4th Weekend


This past weekend it was just me and the girls ;) Rusty had to go to one of his friends weddings in Illinois. It was the first weekend I have spent by myself since I moved in with Rusty. I was lonely at times, but buggie kept me pretty much busy the whole time. I was going to go to Lincoln to visit Don and Amber, but then Rusty wants to go so I postponed that until a later date. Then I was going to go to Mississippi to see Kelly and Rusty, but I looked at the weather and it said it was supposed to rain on Sunday and I didn't want to drive home in the rain so I didn't go. Yes, I know I am a big chicken when it comes to going places. I get nervous with it just being me and Halle in the car. All of these senarios go through my head and I constantly think "what if". I guess that's just part of being a worry wort. Anyway, I think we all had a good 4th. Halle wasn't feeling good the first part of the day. She has been teething and it got the best of her yesterday. She ran a slight fever and was really ill most of the time. When she got to feeling better, we went to the neighbors who had big blow up water slides, swimming pools, cooked out, and shot fireworks. To bad Halle was to little to go on the big water slide, it looked like fun! We didn't get to see the firework show b/c Halle was extremely sleepy so I came home and put her to bed. I stayed up for a little while longer to watch some of the fireworks, but not many b/c I was really tired myself. Today is a happy day b/c Rusty is on his way home from Illinois! I can't wait for him to get home. I missed him alot.... geez what am I gonna do whenever he has to go back over seas???? I don't want to think about it!!! Kelly get ready for me to move in with you :) Ha! Sounds like my little buggie is waking up now so I better run to her rescue! Oh I posted a picture of her playing with her toys, that's pretty much all she did yesterday when she was feeling up to it.
