Passporter’s 2012 Walt Disney World Guidebook Giveaway

Passporter’s 2012 Walt Disney World Guidebook Giveaway

Check it out....Chip and Company always gives all the Disney information I ever need....I love, LOVE, LOVE them!!

...3 months 4 days...

That is how much time we have left before we are on our very first REAL vacation.  Yes we have gone on vacation before to see our wonderful family...but it is not the same as taking a REAL vacation and relaxing just the three of us.

This year we are headed to Disney World Resort.  It just so happens that we are going the day after little Miss Alexandrea's birthday as well. Coinsadence????  I don't think so... YAY!!!!

We figure that since she will be turning the big 3, and she is soooo in love with the Disney Princesses (all of them) and all the fairies...she would love to see them in person.  Plus it is our birthday present to her.  Might as well let her experience some fun times with just mommy and daddy while it is just the 3 of us.  Because even though we may not be pregnant right now, we are trying to have another one.  I want her to be able to have memories of just the 3 of us.  I have had people tell me "She is too young to remember it".  Well those people are WRONG!!  We have passes to Seaworld and Busch Gardens...and we originally got them the day after she turned 2....to this day, she remembers all the animals she has seen at both places.  She even looks @ pictures of our trips and can recall things that happened those days.  And we have gone numerous times.  We got one smarty pants on our hands :).

Nothing really new to report, other than things are going well.  Alexandrea was moved officially into the 3 year old class @ school.  Even though she isnt 3 yet...she is potty trained and they said she was ready...which makes one a very proud mommy :).

Robert and I are steadly working the same round about hours @ work and when we actually have days off together, we enjoy them that much better.  We are house hunting!!  Yes we may only be looking for a house to rent...but alas, we are NOT apartment folk...lol.  There is nothing wrong with the apartment we stay in...other than it is starting to get very small.  When we first moved in here, we did not have that much stuff...NOW, we have Christmas, Halloween, Birthday, and all kinds of extra stuff.  So needless to say, our place is starting to look like a storage unit...lol.

I finally decided on a major (it was about time...lol I have all my general education classes out of the way and needed to decide).  I am enrolled now to take my BS in Business Administration with a focusing in finance.  I decided it would come in handy with working in the finance department @ Marriott Vacation Club International.

Well speaking of school...I have to get my paper done...so I am leaving you with a couple of photos :)  ENJOY!!

Bringing in 2011

This year I am bringing in 2011 sitting here at the house with our lil bit...she of course is sleeping, I would LOVE to be in bed, but I refuse to admit that Im getting older and need to be in bed...LOL....that and the hubs will soon be off work....HOEPFULLY I can give him a kiss right @ 12am (if he makes here in time)...

I have plans for this year, and I plan on accomplishing every single one of them.  Even if it takes me till this time next year!!  I WILL ACCOMPLISH THEM!!!!!

For one I plan on having our 2nd child...lol

Well I am off here to enjoy the peace and quiet that getting Alexandrea a "big girl bed" (a pillow top twin bed) has brought me....soo I leave you with this...

HAPPY NEW YEAR....MAY GOD WATCH OVER YOU AND YOURS AND BE SAFE!!   OOOO, AND NEVER FORGET....WHEN YOU PUT YOUR MIND TO SOMETHING IT WILL ALWAYS WORK OUT AND BE ACCOMPLISHED :)

So sad.

We were planning on surprising everyone at Christmas that we were prego again with BabyAdams#2, but sadly to say on Friday evening we miscarried.  Right now we are trying to pick up the pieces and make do with what we have, but it is still a very sad time for us.  Yes we were only 7 weeks, but 7 weeks of being prego with your hopeful second child is more than not being prego.  All the what if's about your soon to be completed family...

We are going to the doc tomorrow to make sure everything is ok.  Then in a few months after we have healed and maybe ready to move on, we will try again for our second angel.  But of course this baby will never leave our hearts.  We named him/her Angel. Either way if they were a boy or girl...the name works and atleast we know that our little one is in a better place.

Thank you for your kind words.  Love all of you...Have a wonderful holiday.

The Adams Family Christmas Tree 2010

So we busted out the decorations and lights and let Alexandrea tell us every spot to put the decorations.

And this is our FIRST REAL Christmas tree since Alexandrea was born.  She is so proud of it, she has been telling everyone about it...lol

Just a quick update with pictures...and .....17 more days!!!!  (not sayin what...just 17 more days)

Long Time No Post...

Sorry for not posting anything lately but things have been REALLY crazy around here lately.  From work, school and lil bit..but I must say there are some VERY interesting things going to be happening this month...and that is ALL I am saying. 

We are getting our Christmas tree on Wednesday :)

I am leaving you with a couple new pictures I took on my new camera...THAT I LOVE!!!

...Weekend Get-Away...

Me and the hubs had one about 2 weeks ago...and thanks to working for Marriott...we got a discount on the room...PLUS an upgrade!!  woot woot!!!  Lets just say that the get-away, was something that we both needed...no baby (by no means I am not saying we didnt miss her, because OMG I could not sleep). 

Its like something inside us sparked and we reconnected in a way that brought us back to the "honeymoon" stage of our relationship.  I could look in his eyes and see the love he has for me, no question I am one of his favorite ladies!!  Of course not first but only second to our wonderful lil bit.

I dont even know where to start...I have fallen in love with him all over again :)

Alexandrea's School Pictures

2 more days!!

Till me and the hubs go on our weekend getaway to Orlando :)  Pictures deffiantly to come :)

That is all...I had to write it down because Im just way excited!!  Its been exactly 2 years, 4 months, and 25 days since me and the hubs have had a full 2 days by ourselves :)  If you wanna know how I came up with that number....Ever since our wonderful little angle Alexandrea was born.... :)

Right now our game plan is leave Saturday morning check in our hotel...go to Ripley's Believe It or Not, lunch, Seaworld, Diner....then back to the hotel for some pool and hot tub time....Next day, Breakfast, Aquatica, Diner, home to see our baby girl....

BUT unfortuantly when we get home we have to leave again, BUT with babygirl...to fog the house for durn fleas!!  Im tired of them!

The Artist in the making!!

I think we have a little artist in the making...You be the judge :)

The white circle is what I drew...the green thing around it, is Alexandrea's circle she drew :)

A few pictures...

First let me start off with a few pictures from when we went to St Pete Beach to visit with my daddy...

Day off with mommy and daddy...park and pool time....

Biology

This is my new class I am attending for the next 5 weeks...week 1 is down for the count.  I think I did pretty well on my week end test, but I wont know until I get the grade on Wednesday...bummer!!

Update on us...Everything is going well, for the most part.  Things seem to be falling into place.  Alexandrea is a really busy body lately.  She loves her new school and potty training is going well for the most part.  There are times I really just wanna wait because I personally don't think she is completely completely ready.  But there are those days that she proves me wrong.  Her vocabulary and words are getting much better.  She carries full conversations with us now.  She is learning big words too, like DELICIOUS and FREEZING.  To me those are words a 2 year old should not know, but she does. :)  Don't get me wrong, I love all the learning that she absorbs, but sometimes it makes me sad I wanna tell her to stop growing and getting older so fast.  I cant believe it but she is already 2 and half, and she just turned 2!!

Robert is doing well, for the most part...he is working to basically bring a paycheck home now...he no longer likes working where he is.  His car is back up and running, which that is a life savor because with only one car working, it is really hard for 2 people who work night (well one who works late nights and the other until 8) to get back and forth to work.  Let alone get errands done when the other person needs the car.

ME, well I am doing good.  I am still very stressed, but I would rather not go into details about that quiet yet.  My work is still doing very well.  I made bonus last month, so I am hoping this weeks paycheck has it on it.  If not I know the one at the end of the month will.  For this month, I know I definitely getting it, just to how much, now that is a different story.  Have not lost anymore weight, but that is kind my fault..well DUH it is my fault.  I have not been sticking to my diet and definitely not been exercising.  I'm just soo tired and when I do get the courage to venture out for a walk around the lake with Alexandrea, it rains or something like that.  I am about to start a new goal though of another 20 lbs starting in the beginning of October.  In the mean time, I am just managing to not gain any weight and to stay where I am at.  I have a doc appointment on Friday.  Not going to say what it is, but nothing bad just some basic check up stuff :).  And if you do know what it is for...KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT AND DON'T TELL ANYONE!!  :)  Sorry had to put that out there.

Well for now I am getting off here, because I am exhausted..I don't have to be at work until 2pm, which is REALLY nice because this whole week I have worked full days.  So tomorrow morning I get to lounge around with lil bit and soak up all her goodness...not to mention I get to come home to my wonderful husband.  Which by the way has really stepped up his game.  I think I am falling more in love with him everyday...but that's another post one day.  :)

Love everyone, and I hope you had a good weekend.  I am going to try to post some pics up soon that are recent.  Like when we went to the beach the other weekend to visit with my dad.  But until then...The Adams Crew signing off...over and out.

Right and Left

Just a little update...we are starting to teach Alexandrea the difference between left and right.  So far, so good!!  YAY!!! 

Funny thing about being sick...

Well lets start off by saying I feel a little better, not much, but enough to probably stay all day at work tomorrow...I took a 1/2 day today.  I have had a bad case of a stomach bug.  I cant keep anything down and well its not soo fun.  The only thing I did all day yesterday was sleep....the hubs was awesome and let me sleep without bugging me to help with the baby.  I LOVE HIM!!!

But one good thing about being sick right now...I lost the pesky 2 lbs...LOL  actually I lost like 3lbs.....LMAO!!!!!!!!!

Just had to make everyone laugh...heading off here to head right back to bed...

JUST TO CLARIFY about EASYHOMES123

We did get our money back finally after being told we would not get it back from easyhomes123, AND if you were to fully read the WHOLE BLOG, the next day shows I updated that we got the money back!!!    We were told the house we were interested in buying was taken off the market, but we have proof that the house was still on their website the whole time...its called screen print with date and time :).  We did not sign a contract saying they could keep the money either. 

As regards to MY OPINION about the company...I would never do business with them ever.  Just do your research.  And I am only updateing this because he had nothing better to do then to look me up and harrasse me by sending me threating text messages that he would sue us for defermation of character. 

Just to clarify as well...this is MY blog and if I choose not to update something that is my business...not yours....GET A LIFE!!!

AND IF YOU CALL, TEXT OR REACH ME, MY HUSBAND OR ANY OF OUR FRIENDS OR FAMILY IN ANY WAY OR FORM AGAIN, YOU WILL BE SERVED FOR HARRASSMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Alexandrea's 1st day of school

Well the time has finally come, Alexandrea started her first day of school/daycare today.  We walked her in and at first she didnt wanna stay, but as soon as we were in her classroom, she gave me and daddy a hug and kiss and told us to leave.  I got into the car and started to tear up.  Our little girl is now starting to become an independent little girl.  No longer a baby, as I have been informed nuermous times by miss lil bit..."No mommy, I big goorl".

When I got the update of what she did today, I was told she did excellent and loved every minute, and even told her teacher she would see her tomorrow...but not really, she will see her again on Wednesday.  Alexandrea told me she wanted to go back and play with "the kids".  She even had a little status update of her day...she had snack and ate all her apple slices, gram crackers and water.

Guess this means that mommy and daddy will have to give in to Alexandrea's request for a little brother :)  Teehee

Here are some pictures from today...enjoy :)

!! 2 pounds !!

Have you ever been on a diet, or tried to get healthy and your almost at your goal or your first goal and you have those little 2 pounds staring and pointing at you laughing because you can not seem to lose them????  Well I am there.  My first goal was to lose 20 lbs, and I am stuck at 18.  No matter how much I try, exercise eating right, it seems like these last 2 lbs just wont go away.  I lose them, then I gain them...they are seriously just sitting back and laughing at me.

I am going to try to go back on phase one of the south beach again to see if I can get them gone, but who knows.  Once I get those 2 lbs done, then I am on my next 20 lbs.
