May in Fast Forward

Right before the begining of May Joee started crawling up a storm, and pulling up about two days after she took off.



Then we started May in Flordia, we went to St. George Island (dont worry there was no oil there) with Max's maternal family, which is huge.










Max and I had a ton of fun, we got out and about alot since St. George Island where we were staying doesn't have alot going on and we aren't to fond of the beach. Well I love the beach, sound of the ocean, playing in the sand, feet in the surf. BUT I do not get in the ocean, hardly ever, and I do not lay out, or I turn into lobster woman, I am very fair skinned. I think Joee has a better than than I do.















We played some family games, my team won every challenge that we were in. We are just bad like that :) I brought the Wii game Just Dance, while the pt system is jacked up, the game was fun to play with everyone.



We went up our first lighthouse! So awesome! I hope to do that some more, and got a brochure on all the lighthouses you can climb in FL.




















I had a wonderful birthday, Max got me those Reebok shoes from the butt commercials. Some cute cards (he is always good with cards because he has such a big heart) I got some awesome cupcake stuff for my birthday too. And a new cartridge for my cricut!






The day after my 25th birthday I celebrated my first mothers day as a mommy. It was cute, Joee and Maxwell got me cards. My mother really loved her photo book I made her for mothers day. My grandmother was way jealous, and I really should have made Gina (MIL) one, but I didn't have as many pictures of her and Joee because she always tries to HIDE in them or make the goofiest of goofy faces! But I did make her a beautiful card that she loved.


Joee with her cousin Trent!

Then Max and I ran in the Warrior Dash with some of his family, which was AWESOME!




Then this past weekend (Memorial weekend) We went to the mall, and played arcade games with Joee. She loved all the lights and buttons. She also rode her first carousel, she loved those lights too. We watched a billion episodes of Dexter. Then we hung out with Max's (and mine too :) Friend Richard, who was on leave for the weekend from the Marines. I love Richard, he is a wonderful friend to Max. He was my favorite of his buddies to hang out with because he is really funny and very easy to get along with. We miss him since he has been gone. He use to hang out with us alot before he left for the Marines, which was back in 2009 the year we got married.

Later we took Joee to pick strawberries, which wasn't as fun as I remember it being, but she will love it next year! However she did look super cute! Dressed in a strawberry outfit much like this one....



And that was May for our family give and take :)

PS Maybe Ill be a better blogger in June lol.

Not Me Monday

I did NOT forget to post a Not me Monday last week, that did NOT aggravate me since its my favorite day to post, so I did NOT skimp on blogging last week because of it!

Anyways Happy Not Me Monday!



Joee has NOT decided that she only can crawl in reverse. I mean really... we are trying to get her in gear but its not working. She has NOT taught herself how to go from belly to sitting either.

Joee also did NOT just start sleeping through the night ALL of the time. So we are NOT moving her to her big girl room tonight! Yah Mom can sleep!

I did NOT spend way way to much time on Shutterfly this week. I did NOT make Joee a cute book for when she is older with pictures of us from the park. I would NEVER make it rhyme, I'm NOT that creative.

These are NOT some of the pictures of us at the park...




We would NEVER take our 7 month old to have her ears pierced. (Did you notice^^)


We would NEVER take Joee to have her picture taken at Wal-Mart, we sure would NOT buy all 8 poses, and there would NEVER be a problem once we got our pictures and they are big. One ISNT a picture of Joee trying to crawl. Her foot is NOT tucked under, and her big toe does NOT stick out and look like a winkie... yes a wee wee. There is NOT spit up on Joees outfit in 2 of the pictures either. NO this wouldn't happen after we sent $150 at Wally World getting this done. (I took these pictures of the pictures... I dont have a digital copy.)

Did you see it.. well here it is!


We did NOT feel rushed even though we had an appointment, and she did NOT walk away several times to talk to people that were walking up. That is NOT crazy to do with an infant that has a small window of having her attention!



So we did NOT go take pictures AGAIN the next week at Portraits Innovation and these pictures were NOT cheaper, and better!!





I do NOT have 11 days before the beach, and still have a lot of weight to loose, this would NEVER make me want to stop eating. No. I am NOT that crazy or shallow.

I did NOT promise a friend that I would make her little boy a shirt for his bday party that is fast approaching. This is NOT been the most complicated promise (crafting wise) that I have ever made.

I am NOT sick of all this pollen I am NOT tiered of my nose being more like a faucet.

We would NEVER throw our Chihuahua a 6 year old Birthday Party!! We did but I don't have pictures from this year! Rue my first doggy is 6 now!!
