Quick Beach Trip!

We decided Thursday night to head to the beach this weekend since nothing else was pressing. Joseph and Grammy and left on Friday morning and Jason and his dad came after work. Saturday we rode the boat all day and met up with the Gaston's however the rain got us about 45 minutes after we stopped the boat late Saturday afternoon.and we didn't get to play very long that afternoon. But we had been on the boat "All Day" as Joseph said. SUnday we saw with the McAbee's and it was fun getting to catch up with them before we left. Here are a few pictures.

"The Softer Side of Men"

As you can see sometimes men do have a softer side!! HA! Joseph was playing in my shoes trying to give me shoes to wear to church on Sunday and he came out with a black and a brown heel of mine on. It was too cute and I had to take his pic!! But you can see above he really is a true boy!!! His Daddy didn't want me taking the picture but I couldn't resist!!!

Growing into a big boy!

We have been trying to potty train for about 3 weeks now and I think we are finally getting the hang of it. He didn't do as well last week while I was gone but we had a great weekend. He never wet his "big boy underwear" all weekend! Yeah!! So hard to believe that we are almost out of the diaper phase!! They grow up way to fast!

He was so happy to see me when I picked him up from the sitters on Friday. He ran and jumped into my arms and hugged and kissed all over me! Needless to say we are suffering from separation anxeity again but as each day goes on he will get better. He didn't want me out of his site this weekend though!!

I was so happy to be home!!

I miss my boys!

On Monday, I left flying to Charleston, SC to meet some other of my collegues for work. I have not been away from Joseph or Jason for an entire week like this. Only for 3 nights. It is becoming very difficult and I miss them tremendously! Joseph even cried a little last night when I talked to him because he wanted his mommy. Daddy also said he didn't sleep well and was beginning to really miss me. We also have been working on potty training and he had been doing really good but had a bad day at the sitters yesterday. I am blaming it on me being gone though. Anyway I just need to blog about how I feel. Guys if you read this I will be home on Friday and can't wait to hold you both in my arms. I love and miss you both soo much!!

Love,

Mommy

I love the Beach!!

We enjoyed a nice trip to the beach this past week while we were off work. We ate, rode the boat and swam all week. We have a beach bum on our hands!! We were able to play and swim with the Gaston, Smiths and Meadows on several different occasions. We didn't want to come back to reality!!! Hope everyone had a safe and happy 4th!
