Funny GIF

Hey, here's a funny as heck GIF a talented animator made for me. Oh boy :P

My Weekend

Tim gets a 3 day weekend, yeaa! We need it especially since he had duty for several weekends, argh.

Yesterday, we went to Red Robin for dinner, mmm.. good burgers and we watched "Meet the Fockers".. which was pretty good. I liked Dustin Hoffman and Robert De Niro. That was the third time we brought Landon to a movie theater and he does really good. He sits in his stroller and watches the movie the whole time. Its so cute!

Today, Tim met up with a coworker to go have a LAN party (video games).. boys! Im relaxing here, blah.. but he said he'll bring me a Chipotle burrito, whoo!!

I've been working out hard.. I have two Paula Abdul dance/ workout videos and it rocks!! I wanna be at least a size 8.. I used to be a 5, but I noticed that my hip bones became more wide when I was pregnant with Landon.. but, I accept my figure, just need to get rid of the baby fat!

Here's the latest pic of me,

Beautiful Angel

I wanna dedicate this post to my beautiful daughter in Heaven.

I found out I was pregnant on Jan 28, 2005. It came as a big surprise because I just had a baby 3 months before! I wasn't planning on having another one for a year at least, but we took it as God's beautiful surprise and plan for us.

She was due Oct 2, 2004, right near Landon's birthday.

I didn't tell anyone in our family because I had hoped to announce the news to everyone in person in April for our family gathering. I didn't get the chance to do that with Landon. It was hard to keep my mouth zipped.


I knew it was a girl with all my heart. Something inside me told me that there was no doubt I would have a daughter. I also had a dream a few days before that I gave birth to a beautiful baby girl and she looked so much like Landon. My sister told me she had a dream that I had a baby girl that looked like landon, and she was smiling and laughing. My sister didn't know I was pregnant either...

But on Feb 13, the day before Valentine's Day, I experienced bad back pains and I found blood all over my pants. A part of me knew what happend but it was pure shock. I didn't expect to lose her. The doctors confirmed it, that my hormone count was at 7, when it should be 5,000. He said that it was too early for me to be pregnant and my body wasn't ready. He said it was extremely common for women at my stage, but I wish I knew before.

It broke my heart knowing that I wouldn't meet her in October or hold her in my arms like in my dream. I hope that she didn't feel any pain or fear. I prayed to God to tell her that Mommy is so sorry, and for him to give us a second chance again someday.

My favorite name for her was Briar.. Briar Danielle.

A friend wrote a beautiful poem that I'll share with you all..

Somewhere in the pearly gates
is a beautiful baby girl,
A baby angel.
Landon’ sister and playmate.
Left before her time on the earthly ground
Needed above for her duties above.
Landon has an angel to look over him,
Kiss his boo-boos when
Mommy and Daddy aren’t around to do it.
Play with Landon as his secret playmate,
Landon has a guardian and his sister
Will watch over him.
Help him walk his first steps, pedal his bike,
Confront his fears all with his “angel” behind him.
It’s hard for Mommy and Daddy to lose a baby,
Landon will know the love,
For his sister through Mommy and Daddy.
Through the eyes of Landon, he will tell you
About his sister because of Landon,
He will see his sister and tell you,
“She is around us.”

Be My Valentine <3

Valentine's Day was so wonderful!!

We celebrated it on the 15th insted of the 14th.. less of a crowd, plus Tim gets paid on the 15th. It was one of the best days ever!!

He surprised me on lunch with red roses (my fave), chocolate and a cute bunny card! I got him a heart basket with a pic of our family for when he goes away to RT school, some pez (he collects them), a conversation card, which we had fun using at dinner when we went to "On the Border".. yum!

We talked for hours, it was perfect!!

He came back and he and Landon were so goofy, I couldn't help but take pics!!

Insanity

Things have been so crazy, whew..

My computer messed up really bad. I lost my files and everything for some reason, but thank GOD that I found a way to access Landons pictures, whew! Im gonna have to burn them on a CD or print them all out so I dont lose them.

As some of you know, I found out shocking news. I will talk about it but I need to let some people know first in person before.. now I cant even say anymore without being obvious, shh.

Tim has the day off tomorrow because we are going to a Spouse program in the Navy that lets us know the details of what to expect from the Navy. Thatll be nice because the Navy is full of unexpected surprises..

Tims fighting to go to RT school in Sept 30. That means Ill fly back to Cali then and be with family. Im tutoring him in College Algebra. I took statistics in college, but this thing is new to me and very difficult, WHEW!

Here's a pic of Tim and landon together. They have a beautiful bond between those two. Landon lights up whenever he sees him.

Update

Sorry that its been so long since I posted. Ive been having bad computer problems, now I can finally post, whew!
