hello!

Me and my baby on the 4th. He was so sweaty so i had to change him out of his cute 4th of July outfit :(

This is how i found my baby while he was taking a nap the other day!!! LOL he loves my blanket

awwww Daddy has been waiting to be able to do this for a long time!

Pull his hair Elijah, come on you can do it!!!! LOL

This is my favorite!!! he looks sooooo excited! They love playing together! I love my two favorite boys!

I cant believe my baby boy will be 6 months old this coming Saturday. Just in time to be in his very own house and his very own bedroom! i cant wait to decorate for this little boy. it's gonna be great! he is such a sweet boy and i am saying this as he is crying in his crib because he does not want to go to sleep even though he is exhausted!!! LOL

last night was the most wonderful night ever... he slept from 8:30 pm to 6 am!!!!! then until 8:30 am. i was soooooooooooooo happy!!!!!!! of course now that i am writing about it, um well he will probably not do that again for a while but hey i dont care. i got more hours of sleep in a row than i have in 14  months. with being pregnant and then having him i havent had more than four hours of sleep in a row in forever!!! Thank you Lord!

on another note as of today i have lost ALL of my baby weight! and my kiddo is not even six months old. i am so proud! so now i have 15 lbs to lose before september. i have to buy a dress for my brother Ryan's wedding and then a dress for my brother Wade's wedding which is in January. so i have got to get in shape for those events! they are coming up fast. this is such a busy year and i cant believe that it is already July. my hubby's b'day is next week too! i cant believe i have known him since he was 16 and now he will be 27... gosh where did the years go???? we are leaving wednesday to head down to get ready to close on our house on thursday. my sis and bro in law are coming up to help us load the uhaul. they are sooooo awesome! i cant even begin to thank them enough. i have been working so hard and doing so much and i am so tired! LOL but i am so glad it's almost over. once we get the uhaul loaded and unloaded i will be less stressed out for sure. i just want it all to go as smooth as possible. 

we had a good 4th of July. it was very very very hot out and E and I were miserable. LOL but it was great seeing all of Dennis' family again and getting to show off E to them. He was such a great baby and it was rough on him but we did the best we could. i kept getting in the truck and cooling him off, he fought all of his naps and wanted just me for the most part so that was rough. i wasnt too excited about holding him in 100 degree weather, it just made me even hotter! we survived though! he basically had a melt down that evening so we knew that after the fireworks it was time to head home. poor baby was soooo sweaty. the whole day we let him drink from our water bottle and he loved it, i would keep his head wet and his shirt was soaked from the water that would run out of his mouth! LOL he was so cute and for the most part he was happy. i didnt get any pictures really cuz it was hard enough taking care of him let alone carrying my camera everywhere. others got lots of pics so once i get a hold of them i will post some. i did get one picture of him and I, we went to Dennis' uncle's house to cool off for a little bit so that was nice. 

I better get back to work. just two more nights here and we are gone... no more apartments!!! thank you Lord! i am sooooo ready and so excited. i am going to miss my friends here but i know that we will be better off being closer to family. i miss them so much!
