Girls Night Out

Well Saturday was my friend Shanna's Birthday. So a bunch of her friends went out and had dinner at the Cheesecake Factory. And let me tell you it was Delicious! They are definetly a little pricey but it was so good. I had this chicken artichoke soup (wonderful) and I took a piece of cheesecake home to share with the hubby. It was a really nice group and it was so nice of Charlie to let me go. He actually told me to go..he's like you need to get out and do something for yourself. He is just such a great guy. I am so lucky. It was really nice to see Shanna again and I hope she had a great birthday!
On a great happy note...my Jillian was able to switch back to regular Similac Formula!yay! No more allergy. We are so thrilled. She is just doing great..she is walking with help from us..I think she is just ready to be mobile. She is getting to be so much fun. I am still looking for a job..which I guess is bittersweet. I love staying at home with Jillian, but then again we really need the extra money. But if I work now and save up..when we have enough money..we want to try again for another one..in about a year. Well anyway, thats about all that has been going on. All the pics were taken on the same day..enjoy and thanks for reading.
God Bless you all.

9 Months

My Little Jilly May is 9 months old already. We went to the DR today and she got shots. Poor thing. I just hate doing that to her, she just cries and cries. She has been sleeping since we got home. DR said everything looks great. I asked about her teeth (haha what teeth, she doesn't have any) And he said she will get them, and not to worry. And as far as her not crawling or wanting to lay on her belly, he said that was fine too...he said she will probably just walk early..yay! She is just growing so darn fast, I can't believe it! And..they are going to try her on regular Similac Formula to try. So wish us luck, and hopefully she will do okay on it. If not, she will most likely be lactose and tollerant :(. Other than that we are doing ok. Just trying to make ends meet. Not enough money and too many bills. I'm really trying to find a job at a preschool, but its kinda hard with Jilly. Too much for childcare. But once she turns 1 it should be easier. In 3 months she is going to be 1..boy does time go by fast. I'm almost ready for another one.haha. Well not quite. I'm enjoying my one on one time with her, and I don't want all the attention off her yet.haha. Well I hope everyone is doing ok. Have a great day!

SL Trip

Jilly on our way to SL

Well this weekend was pretty good. We went to the Round Valley tournament to watch Albert and Ricky wrestle and they did great. Ricky took first and won outstanding wrestler and Albert took third. They both did great, good job boys. Jillian did really well at the tourney..a little cranky at times, but thats to be expected. I met up with Brandi and got to talk to her and we had a really nice visit. Tytan really liked Jillian. He kept playing with her shoes and face. It was so cute. He is a riot! And little Miss Sydnee was a wonderful cheerleader for her Uncle Coco. And Brandi's little baby bump is just the cutest. I had a great time visiting with the Kakavas family.Thanks Brandi. We also stayed at my mom's for like 2 nights. My mom hadn't seen Jillian in awhile. My mom kept saying how fat she was!haha. We had a really nice visit with my family. I really miss seeing them. My sister cried when I had to leave, it about broke my heart. I love those kids so much and they just adore Jillian. Noah is so cute with her he always says "Can I hold miss Jillabean!" (he's 4) And it is so cute...she is as big as he is! I'll post some pictures when I get them. I took them on my moms camera.

On a sad note, when we came home from our trip my dog Mylie tore up our house and there was stuff everywhere! This has been going on for awhile, but we just can't seem to fix the problem. We tried everything. So last night I put her on Craigslist and within 10 minutes a lady texted me and came and got her. It was so hard for me bc I loved that dog so so much. But she just ended up costing us too much money. She tore up a bunch of Jillian's things, and we just don't have the money to keep replacing stuff. So we decided no more animals until Jillian is older and we know where were at and what were doing in a couple of years. (with charlies job we just don't know) But she went to a good home with another Min Pin, so i'm confident she will do great with them. Well I hope everyone had a great weekend. OH! and I take Jilly to the DR today for a check up and shots..so I'll let you know how it goes. They are going to put her on new formula, so hopefully she will do better..wish us luck and I'll post again after her appointment! Take care everyone!

Jilly and Carden

Well Charlie our cousin Julie and her husband Keane came down this weekend and spent some time with us. It was really nice to see them. Jillian and Carden are about 4 months apart and they are 2nd cousins. Carden is really growing up and it was so nice to spend time with them. When we lived in Show Low we saw them like twice a week at least. We have become such great friends with them and now our kids get to grow up together. Jillian said "Dadda" for the first time this weekend. And let me tell ya, Charlie thought that was the greatest thing ever. So now she has mama and dadda down. She is just growing up so fast I can't believe it. On friday my baby girl is going to be 9 months old! Do you believe it?! I sure don't. Well I hope all of you are doing fine and dandy. Have a great day!
