Curiousness

We bought The Curious Case of Benjamin Button today and watched it. My honest opinion is it was ok. i Love Brad Pitt and all and it was a well told story, but it just wasn't a great movie for me.. The ending was soo sad though. Imagine being a little baby like that. I think it was a little silly to have the daughter wait that long to tell her, but anyway.

Mason , my sister and I went to Target today! the best store ever! I decided that I am going to try to start running, and my sister is running with me, so we went to get some shorts and a new sports bra. My goal by the end of summer is to make it to the front of our neighbor hood and back running all the way. It's about 4 miles, so hopefully I can do it. I don't think I want to be a long distance runner, because I don't think I could run for the hour or so it takes to get 15 miles in. I don't really know much about running so before I buy all this cool stuff I'm going to make myself go everyday thats possible for a month.

Mason started really crawling today he is getting faster. He used to get about one leg up then stop and lay down then get back up and try again. Today he really got going and was all the way across the living room! He isn't even 6 months yet. i hope this means we have a early walker! It does also mean that I have to start babyproofing everything. he likes to try and find any wire or paper that is laying around cause obviousl those are more fun than his toys!



Well I am off to bed and hopefully another good day of running awaits me tomorrow!

Been a Few Days

So it's been a few days since I wrote. i have really been caught up with Watching Heroes, and playing with my baby!1
He is finally doing better! No more runny nose or coughing. I am so excited!
I have a baby shower to go to today for my cousin. They are having a baby in July. After that I am heading to the in-laws.

I will post more tonight when I get back!

My Baby's got a runny nose....

Hey everyone, I feel so bad for my little man he's sick. I think he's got a little bit of hay fever. I have super bad allergies related to outside and changing of the seasons is the worst so I think I passed on that undesireable gene to my little Mason man. I feel so bad for him last night he was coughing so hard he was crying everytime he did. It was like a little wail not full on crying so I know his throat must have been hurting him.

I had to use that little snot sucker thing on him 'cause he was so congested in his nose he couldn't eat and he does not like that at all! Hopefully he gets to feeling better soon I made him an appt today. Yesterday was Mother's Day, My first one ever. We went by Pauls's mom's because they were grilling. It was very yummy.

Today I have to drop Paul off at the recruiter office at 4:00 to be whicked away to New Orleans. He gets to sleepover in a hotel tonight then go to MEPS in the morning and do all the signing stuff. Hopefully I'll get to go up there tomorrow and watch him swear in I have to ask.

Anyway, I have to go take a shower and get motivated!

About Us

Ok I decided to tell you guys a little bit about us:

* My name is Stephanie and his is Paul
*We have a little boy named Mason who was born dec 4, 2008
*We have a chocolate poodle named Oliver who is very hardheaded, he does not listen at all, ever!




*We met while both working at the same job.
*Paul is a big outdoors guy, right now he is working on his vegtable garden, and cleaning out the back woods, he loves to hunt, fish, go mud riding. He is a guy's guy.
*I love to read. I'm usually pretty organized, but sometimes it's hard for me to get motivated. It's like I have super efficient Steph(she is good at cleaning or little projects), and Lazy Steph(she just likes to sit on the couch and read or watch tv).

Really the only other things I can say are that we got married in Feb '08, and Paul has lived in Lacombe, LA his entire life! It will be fun to see how all the moves work for him! I was Born in Bogalousa,LA(near slidell) and raised in Gilmer, TX. If anyone asks where I'm from i"ll first tell them TX! I am kind of excited about this whole Army thing because I always wanted to travel and see places. I want to actually finish school for once and maybe now will be my time to do it. I don't have a desire to get a big degree I just want a little accounting degree!

I'm excited to do this now while Mason is young so we can get our bearings first with out having to worry about how this will all affect him. I think I need to invest in some training courses for Oliver though cause he is a handful!

Anyway, Just thought I'd Share!!

xo, Steph

Telling the Family

Well, hubbys family found out tonight. We were going over there to eat crawfish(oh so good) and they were a little upset cause he hadn't told them yet. His reasoning was that he didn't want to say anything till he had taken the test and knew what jobs were available to him. I can understand that part of it but I also want to say "I told him to say something when he started seriously considering it!"

Anyway, the baby is asleep and I'm tired too!! Enjoying life right now!
