Alyssa's Here! :)



Tuesday we ate a good steak/chicken dinner grilled by my Joshua! Then Wednesday I took Alyssa downtown San Diego and we stopped by Ocean Beach and Coronado Island (soo cute!) Yesterday we ate at In-N-Out Burger (delishhh) and went to see the seals at La Jolla Beach! OH MY WORD! By far the prettiest beach I've ever seen in my life! Loveeed it.

More later..

Tomorrow, Tomorrow, I love you Tomorrow!

Helloooo out there~!!

Well let's see... Friday after Josh got "home" from work we decided we'd go ahead and come down to Jacob & Elizabeth's (since Alyssa's coming out here we had plans to stay here anyway). So yes, I packed up all of our belongings "once again" and now are living with Jacob! And Elizabeth, starting tomorrow :) Alyssa also comes in tomorrow!!! She's flying into Los Angeles so I have a bit of a drive ahead of me in the morning but I am so excited to see her! It's going to be a FULL house this week!

Saturday the 15th was mine and Josh's 2 year wedding anniversary! We did absolutely nothing special, but he did come home from base yesterday with a pretty necklace and a card! Better late then never, right?? I think we may just start celebrating it on July 4 since that's a holiday and we had our wedding that day, anyway.. There's bound to be more fun on July 4 than just may 15 anyway... But nonetheless Happy 2 Years to us!!

I may have already said this in a previous post butttt this weekend I booked us a cute little cottage on Del Mar beach (the one on base) so that'll be a lot of fun. Alyssa & I don't have any plans for this week because she works 5 days a week 8hrs a day and this is like her first vacation so she just wants to relax, WHICH IS a- okay with me! :) I told her we could lay in bed all day on the computer while eating Baked Lays and Pretzels just like we use to do (especially when Daddy was living at Nanny's, that's definitely what we did all weekend!) I miss those days!! :) I'm so fortunate to have a life long best friend and I'm so happy she's coming all the way out here just for meeee! Or okay, US! :)


On a side note: Any Mom's out there just feel like you're losing your mind some days?? Well the past couple days it's been that way with me!!! I feel like I never ever EVER get a break from tending to these girls, not even for one minute. Don't get me wrong you know I love them to DEATH but sometimes I just need a moment alone. But I just haven't been getting it lately! Maybe it's just getting more intense because Abs is starting to reach and "low crawl" so I'm having to keep my eye on her at all times AND Kinsley, oh Kinsley!! She just is always right on top of me all day. Or she's constantly on top of her sister, who doesn't always like that, so it makes her cry. And Josh just doesn't get why I feel like I'm going crazy some days, he thinks I'm just impatient. But let me tell you, Saturday when I got him to (as he calls it) "BABYSIT" the girls while I cleaned his own brother's house (not complaining whatsoever) Not even 5 minutes in  I could see the evil taking over his eyes!!! Abrielle was crying cause she was tired and Kinsley was there, as usual jumping all over the place. And yep there he was sitting on the couch looking like he was LOSING HIS MIND and not to mention temper! So of course that just makes me want to stop what I'm doing and take the girls back under my supervision but he wouldn't let me. Even though he wasn't being nice about "not letting me"... I guess some days are just more stressful than others, huh!? But there's nothing, absolutely NOTHING more rewarding then seeing my girls smile at me and hearing Kinsley tell me she LOVES me! So I guess you could say, it's worth losing your mind over, ha ha! ;)


So anyway, I had a GPS but it was absolutely terrible. It often took me to "invisible" destinations and it was just really slow. So today, I bought us a new TomTom. I'm trying to get a feel of it before I use it to get to LAX tomorrow, but I've always heard good things about TomTom's sooo wish me new luck with my new navigator~!!

Gotta run,
Just wanted to update real quick before Alyssa gets here!
Love you all!

Beach Babes

Yesterday afternoon Megan & I took the kiddos to the beautiful BEACH! We couldn't have gone on a more perfect day. It felt sooo nice out! It's been rather chilly lately with the wind and all but on the beach yesterday it was just PERFECT! Nice breeze and certainly not too warm! I caught myself feeling guilty for being there while Josh is at work "hating life" :( Bless his heart, I am sooo ready for this school to be over with. It has him constantly exhausted, so he's not been in the best of moods for over a month. I'm not use to him being so tired or grouchy. He's usually happy and content! So, hurry up June 8 :)

The pictures below are a combination from my camera and Megan's (very awesome) camera! Hope you enjoy. And a shout out to Facebook's newest "Stewart" member... Andrea!! I'm so glad you're on there now, but that doesn't give you permission to lack on writing on your blog, ok!? :)
