Memorial Day Weekend

Well, we tried to go golfing today...Leave it to San Antonio to rain (hard)! We tried and managed to get 2.5 holes in, but then it started to lightning and pour rain. We were soaked by the time we made it back to the clubhouse. Thankfully, I wore dark clothes !

Anyway, Shelley and her beau, Jeff were here for a very short visit! Leave it to Shelley to call me the day before she arrives to call and let us know! It was a blast, James was upset when "Jelly" & Jeff left today.

Alexander had his 2 month visit this week. He is 12.2 lbs and 23.5 inches! He is very healthy and tolerated his shots like a champ. He is smiling and cooing like a champ! He is enjoying lots of tummy time and just like James he looks best in dark blue! He is also charming the daycare workers (also just like James).

On May 15th our neighbors Erik and Stacie had their twins, Deegan and Kenna, very cute kids. We are looking forward to Alexander, Deegan and Kenna being best of friends.

The Boys

James and Alexander on Mother's Day! They are truly the apples of my eye.

Back At Work

Well, I know I haven't updated in awhile, but I think it was a little bit depression and a little bit of stress. Anyway, I went back to work on May 3! Overall, things have been good. I have left 15-20 min "early" every day, but since I had a talk to give yesterday I had to do work at home as well. At least I was with my boys. Going back to work has been somewhat easier this time around. Most likely since I do not have the weight of deployment looming for the next 2 years. Also, I know James did well at daycare so hopefully Alexander will do the same.

Work is good, feel like I never left except the pile of work is bigger! At least everyone is being nice for now! Enough about me.

Alexander is doing great! He is getting bigger by the day! He is so cute and is gaining personality. James is a wonderful big brother and so helpful. Of course, he has his moments as well. The other day he had his first REAL blown out tantrum. He ended up in bed early (6:45 pm) because of it. I know you are all thinking NOT JAMES! but yes he just would not listen so....now he listens!

I hope that no one is feeling hurt about not receiving an announcement, but please know I have not sent out ANY announcements yet! So be patient I am working on them! As I said earlier I went back to work and I don't even have any photos of Alexander at work yet! Boy I feel like a horrible mom! (especially since my patients and co-workers have been asking about them). I have a ton of photos but I have not printed them yet! So part of my job this weekend is to send some announcements and print photos to take to work.

 Ok Alexander calls! and I need to work out at some point today (gotta lose that baby weight Army is already asking for a weigh in!) LOVE IT! I promise to update this more frequently.
