Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day to the most wonderful men in my life... my grandfather, my father, and of course, the father of my child. The most wonderful husband, John. I love you baby- you're the most amazing father to our daughter- I couldn't ask for a better man to share my life with.

Today was a wonderful Father's Day- we woke up & gave John his present. I made a photo book on shutterfly with pictures & quotes. We each also gave him a card. Then off to Lowe's to get some more plywood & another dishwasher hose (this part wasn't so wonderful) so we could yet again replace the hose & the floor around the dishwasher. We thought it was fixed yesterday- had the a new sheet of plywood down, plus replacement tiles. Last night John walked out to the kitchen to find water pooling up under his feet again. After looking under the sink & seeing sparks (!)- and turning the electric off- he tore up the tiles & the plywood and ripped the dishwasher back out. The hose that was replaced had a kink in it & a hole. Ugh. It's all fixed now- for sure! LoL

Other than that though the day was really nice. We went out to my Pappy's where we were joined by my mom & dad, my brother, Sharon (his g/f) & Kayla (her daughter), and my Uncle Tom & Cindy. We gave my dad his present out there- I also made my dad a photo book. John grilled steaks that turned out sooo good! John is a master griller :-D Mac n cheese, baked potatoes & cucumber salad (my fav!). For desert we had some pineapple desert thing- it was pineapple, marshmallows & cool whip- provided by Cindy. John made a cake with chocolate mousse icing- yumm!! And my Pappy had an ice cream cake. I was good & only had some of the pineapple stuff and ice cream cake. I'll be attacking a piece of chocolate cake tonight :-D

Afterwards we headed home & put Delilah down for a nap. Then enjoyed a nap ourselves. And that was our day.

Some pics to enjoy- all that we got today. Oops!

Gosh I suck

I really was going to try to keep up with whole blogging thing but I've totally been sucking. I just have no ambition. Both of the girls are doing great. Delilah just finished preschool today. We had a rough start but it got better. And then she went back to the crying beforehand and giving John issues. She was very happy to learn today was her last day and promptly requested she go to a new preschool. Which she will be in September. Agap.eland! I am so excited for her to begin there. I think (hope) she'll like it a lot more and she'll learn lots of new things. I just hope we don't have the same issues with the new place as we did with the old place. Tatum is growing in leaps and bounds. Recently she's been trying to blow bubbles with the bubble toy grammy got her. It's so adorable as she dip the wand in the spill-proof container (gotta love those), pulls it out and attempts to blow bubbles. She actually did blow bubbles today but of course I missed it becau...

Almost a month since I last blogged- where does the time go? What to write about? I have no idea. Basically things are pretty boring. We've just been doing what John does while I work... going to Target for our weekly Target visit, going to the marina when it's nice, visiting John's parents. We've also visited Ash & the boys for some play dates. Other than that it's been low key which is nice since I only get three months with Tatum. Don't get me wrong I know I'm lucky to have the time I do with Tatum but I just wish I could have six months with her. My mom has since stopped coming during the weekends as I can lift Delilah again. It's not too bad actually- I was worried about it but I'm surviving. I've even been able to get them places by myself. Usually just to visit John at work or for our weekly Sunday visit to my parents. Last Saturday I did make a trip to this place called Wendt's Pork Palace (they have yummy wing dings) with Ashley ...
