Happy Birthday To Dean

Well, today is April 30th and I know what that means!! Today is Dean's 24th birthday! He thinks he is getting old but I think that he is still great! I don't think he will get to do very much celebrating over there but I will make sure he gets to do plenty when he comes home! We keep hearing different dates for his redeployment!! If I tell you a set of dates please do not think it is the gospel, the army is always changing what they are going to do! So nothing will actually be a final date untill he is really at home!

Jolie is doing great! She has 4 teeth now and she is so full of energy! We are back to sleeping all night but she likes to wake up early sometimes and I am not always a morning person. She is getting better at crusing around objects and she can stand on her own for about 10 to 15 seconds when she is really good and balanced. She gets along wonderfully with Roscoe and has a new doggy friend named Cody! He is the dog of my friend Ashley! Jolie just loves animals. Soon we will be changing alot of stuff for her! She will get to start drinking regular milk and eating a few more things that she isn' supposed to eat now!

I am doing good I only have about 10 more days till the Onion festival! When the onion festival is over I will be adding alot more items to my ETSY shop. So check out that shop around the 12-13 of May!

We had better go so that we can get some stuff done today!

Happy Birthday Baby!!
Love,

Teresa and Jolie

Best Buds

Jolie and Roscoe are becoming the best of friends!!! Roscoe knows when to leave her alone and when she is actually going to be nice to him!! He loves her when she is in her high chair eating and when she is throwing food over the sides for him to eat. He doesn't like her when she throws big toys off of the high chair because he has been hit one to many times. He likes playing with her when she is on the floor, untill she grabs hold of his ears and yanks on them. She likes to chase him around the dining room and kitchen and he is okay with that untill she starts sreaming really loud. They know each others moods and that is what makes for good friends!!!

Love,

Teresa and Jolie

Early Mornings

Normally, I am a morning person, but not when I am awakened a 4 a.m. to a little girl who does not want to go back to sleep. This is the way my mornings have been going lately.

Other than waking up early in the mornings Jolie seems to be doing great. Most of the time during the day she is all over the place. I have to move stuff she isnt able to get it. Like right now she is mad because she can't reach the stuff at the back of my night table and is screaming like a banshee. That isn't abnormal in this house. Jolie has always had a high pitched squeal but look out because it is worse when she is mad.
Jolie went to a birthday party on Sunday for her friend, Lucy. She had a fun time and had her first cupcake. Of course this was only practice for her so she will know what to do when it is time for her to have her first birthday.

Dean tells me I do not write in this blog enough, so hopefully he reads this and knows that I do listen to him, atleast some of the time! We usually get to talk everday, the time varies but that is one of the main highlights to my day. We only have 88 more days to the middle of July. Atleast I think that is right.

Roscoe is doing good. He is seems to be gettting lazier and hopefully he will get fatter and start looking more like a bassett hound. I don't think we will ever be able to get a new recliner because the new one would just become Roscoes again. He guards our yard very well, barking at everything that comes close, person or animal. He has come to know that usually there is alot of traffic over at Mrs. Johnny's house, So he just kind of raises his head to see who is there now, and then goes back to sleep.

I am doing well enough. I just know that today I will definetly be taking a nap. I haven't been sewing quite much recently but that is only because Wal-Mart in Hinesville, Ga, is terrible! I went on Sunday, after the birthday party, only to find that they didn't have any of the fabric that I needed. I swear, Wal-Mart is one of the most pointless stores in the universe. The draw you in because they are supposed to have everything at such a good price and they have the groceries too. Who cares!!! The things I would appreciate would be if they kept all their stuff in stock and maybe had more than 4 actual registers open that acutally had a cashier.
Well I think I better go get the laundry done, before everything gets wrinkled again. I hope everyone is doing well that reads this blog and I hope you have a wonderful rest of your week!

Love,
Teresa and Jolie

Lovely Weather

Just here lately we have been having some beautiful weather. The clouds finally went a way and the sun is shining so bright.

Of course Jolie loves the weather because she loves being outside in her stroller. I think she just loves it outside period. She is always looking around and of course watching Roscoe run around like crazy. Jolie, as usual, is full of energy. She pulls herself up on everything and is learning how to cruise very slowly. I don't know what I am going to do when she starts walking, I only know that I will probably go insane.

Dean is doing good. He told me the other day that we only have about 100 days to go. Which seems like a lot, but after all the day we have already counted down, I guess it isn't to many. The weather over there is extremely hot already. And just a warning if we come visit you for dinner sometime, make a note not to make chicken and rice. That is all that they feed them over there. He also complains about the pork chops. When he gets home I will be spoiling him with all of his favorites. He is very excited to come home and start using the camper. He is already planning where we are going to go first.

I am doing good. I have 30 days till my first craft fair. I am trying to sew at least one item a day. Yesterday, I made my first ACU purse, which I think turned out great. I love it!

Hopefully everything is going good for all of you out there reading this!

Love,

Teresa and Jolie
