A Little Catchin Up!

I haven't been into posting much lately. Actually, I haven't been into doing anything on the computer lately since Adilyn insists that SHE must be involved. She is now going to bed later and sleeping an hour less for her nap, therefore.....I have no time to get things done and I'm very tired. ANYWAY, we still have fun! Plus, I have been busy with Primary, my aunt came to town, more family is coming tomorrow and Tim has been out of town. For those of you who may peruse blogs once in a while and are interested.....here's what we've been up to lately.

On September 11th, Tim's squadron had another new plane arrive and we went to check it out. Adilyn LOOOOVES planes and she ran from one end to the other, sat in the cockpit, and insisted on climbing up the stairs by herself! Here's a few photos of the C-17 Tim flies.....he just flew this plane last week and went to Italy, Germany and a bunch of other places.

These are a couple photos of our trip to the Baltimore Zoo with Aunt Suzy! What a great time we had with her, we miss her!! :)

Another day at the beach!

Yes, Adilyn is STILL a beach bum and loves the water! This weekend we went to a different beach and the waves were much bigger for her. She LOVED hanging onto Dad's hands and letting the water lift her off the sand. Too fun!!!

Making some friends!!

The day would NOT be complete without Adilyn getting her favorite....yogurt!!!

A 30th Birthday Bash!!!

Yesterday was my hubby's 30th birthday!!! I hope he had a fun day, I tried to get guys at work to harass him since he doesn't like attention drawn to himself....I'm not sure they did a good enough job. I should have thought of something clever to embarrass him REALLY WELL!!! Anyway, we went to Hibachi with some friends....the Kroshus', Modell's, Power's, and the Houcks. Thanks for coming everyone, we had a really great time and it made it a special day for Tim. Adilyn thought the chef cooking in front of us was pretty crazy. She watched him and each time the knives would clank together, she'd blink and get this bewildered look on her face. It kept her entertained though....here's her watching with wonder and playing with Daddy's balloons!

Hope you had a great birthday, babe!! We love you!!!

Little Beach Bum!!

Things have been a bit busy with Primary, family visiting and Tim coming and going that I haven't taken the time to post anything lately. So, here's some photos I thought we'd share. This truly is our little fish/beach bum! She has always loved the pool and it's funny because we have 2 on our "housing" side of base that are across the street from each other. Each time we are in the car and come around the corner near the pools, she begins yelling "POOL", kicks her feet and flails her arms around.

Oh the days of summer!

Summer seems to be flying by for us. Tim recently returned from his "dollar ride" which means it was his first trip overseas. He went to Germany, England and Kyrgyzstan. It was a great time for him, he flew quite a bit and learned a lot. Plus, he did an air show and now can add 3 more countries to his list! Addy and I had fun while he was away, doing girl stuff. Here's some photos from some of the summer fun. She is a little fish so anytime she can find water, she will!! Even if that means it's the dogs bowl, the toilet (GROSS!), sink, or a tiny puddle. She is a very independent girl and I can't believe she's getting so grown up. She reads books all day long, loves to help mom in the kitchen, eats yogurt and many things with a spoon all by herself and she is signing a lot more now and learning more words like cold, pretty, go (she yells this at the dogs when they need to come inside!), gone and of course, DADDY! She walked around the house when Tim was gone, yelling it for like a minute straight! Too cute!

Anyway, we're making some great friends here and really settling into our new home. Can't wait til we get some visitors though, next month we're having some and it'll be fun to see family.

I'm a big girl, I promise!

Here are a few pictures of our little "big girl"! She is such a good helper trying to lend a hand to Dad in the garage and is growing up way too fast by wanting to dress in mom's clothes! Doesn't she know she's suppose to stay small? :) The other pictures are from our stay in Utah. The one below is from her birthday when we went to Discovery Gateway with her cousin Spencer.

Hi, uh, I'm in Delaware!

Well, after months of craziness.....we've finally arrived and are moved into our new house. Things with the move went well, however, we did lose our little red Cavalier someplace in Arkansas! I guess it couldn't last forever, it was a great little car for 11 years for us. Poor Tim and my step-dad, they had to deal with it breaking down during the move. Oh well, all is good now.

This is a picture of our house. We love it, it's brand new and huge compared to the places we've been the last 7 years! Adilyn is finally feeling settled. It sure is interesting how a little one can change once her life gets stable! Now she is a total terror....ok, she's really the "destructor"! She loves the dogs but she loves them too hard for their liking. She just can't get enough of her closet or mine and today found a leopard print shirt of mine and had to put it on herself! Yesterday at the outlets she ran into Carter's and went straight for the racks ready to pull all the clothes off. Too funny! She loves to say "Daddy" and is totally into giving hugs now and we can't get enough. She's also begun to hide behind her glider....aparently she "disappears" if she's back there and gets a BIG kick out of it.

Well, Tim and I wish you all would come visit us. We have plenty of room and there's TONS to do here on the east coast. Just plan the day and let us know, we'd love to have you. Now that our life is becoming more stable, we'll get back to posting and checking our friends blogs to see what is happening with you.

ps....can anyone name the movie the title of this post is from??? I've been dyin for someone to know it. :)
