I love smart phones!

I know I know I'm going to sound totally stupid. Woke up this morning saying 'theymust have an app for blogger' if course they do! Since we do butt have internet (yet) I'll just update from here.
Its been a busy month.. I'll start with jordan. Jordan has been feeling hernia pain for the past month or so. :( poor guy.. So we went in to see when he could get surgery.. Well he now has 2 inguinal hernias! He will be going into surgery on august 1. Finally! So keep your prayers goin that day.
Now for chloe.. Oh chloe.. She is growing up too fast!  She is now 16 weeks. She can now roll over onto her tummy, sit up mostly by her self, and she had the cutest laugh I've ever heard! She is just progressing its hard to keep up! She is just such a fun little girl to watch grow.

Now me! We got moved into our new apartment on the 7th of july. Its still not done so I will only show you chloes room. (its adorable!) On saturday we went to ashley home furnishings.. We came out with a $3,000 room for only $989.00! Their sale is amazing. So that is my birthday present from jordan. Love that man.

And thats whats been up with the esters. :)

Like A Champ

We cant get enought of this little girl.





She can lift that little head








Totally caught her mid smile :)



Today was Chloe's 2 month well baby appointment and that means she got her shots :( But my little girl has to be the bravest little girl ever. She cried during the shots, but after the nurse put the bandaids on and i picked her up she cuddles right up to me and stopped crying. She is soo sweet. I couldnt ask for a more sweet baby. Our little girl is now 10 pounds, 8 ounces and she is 22 1/2 inches long. :) So proud of our little girl. She is just growing up so fast.


Jordan and I also found a new apartment were moving into next month. We love this apartment, but the area has just gotten bad, and its a constant fight for parking. This apartment complex is only 10 min away from base, compared to 15-25 min where we are now. It is also more kid friendly, a playground, pool and a walking trail around the entire complex. These apartments are very nice and we are so excited to move. :)

We love this sweet girl

The one time i enjoyed being dressed for the day.







Bath time :)







Oh how i love tummy time





Chloe's two month well baby dr appointment isnt till next week, but i cannot help but put up pictures of this little girl. She is just so dang cute :)




Grandma, grandpa Gardner, and auntie Meg came to see Chloe this last memorial weekend and it was so much fun to have them here. I wish i would have pulled out my camera and been crazy mom and taken pictures. But my crazy brain didnt process that till after they left :( But it was a very fun weekend with the family. Beaches, yummy food, and just spending good time together :)


Just thought i'd put up some cute pics of our little one.

Happy Girl

This little girl kills me with her cuteness :) I swear she gets cuter and cuter every day. I cannot believe she is now 5 weeks old. Before i know it she will be 2 months and i will just die... I am so excited to see how she progresses. This girl is such a sweet girl, this morning she woke up singing. And she was so happy all morning that i had to catch her on camera



I also wanna share how much of a support the WIC program is. We have recieved so much food and supplies that i am so thankful that the WIC program exists.


Well i just thought i'd share a little update of this little one before her 2 month appointment. So excited to see her grow up

The Doctor

Today was Chloe's second doctor appointment, what the naval hospital calls her "2 week well baby" appointment. She is really almost 4 weeks old (On monday). Could my darling child have been more of a nightmare?? Probably, but this little girl put on quite a show today. She arrived fine, happy, actually blabbing in the back seat the whole way. Finally take her out for the doc and bam, Chloe goes into an absolute meltdown. She is just crying about everything. It was almost embarassing if the other babies around werent doing the same thing. But to see my little sweet Chloe doing that made me so sad, i just wanted to pick her up. Cant wait till she gets her shots in a few weeks.. Not. :(
Just thought i'd share my frustration with little Chloe this morning.

Little Chloe updates:

I now weigh 7 pounds 5 ounces (i gained weight finally) and 20 inches long.
I am 3 weeks and 4 days old
Doc said i can soon be rolling over (within a few weeks, scary huh??) because i am progressing a little bit fast.
and i am a healthy girl. :)


As fussy as she gets its hard to look at her and get frusterated... She is just TOO DARN CUTE!!

Tired much?



I thought i had been tired before like in college staying up to either watch movies, study, do nothing.. etc. But now i know what tired is.. Our little Chloe fell asleep at about 9:15 last night, mom and dad stayed up talking and doing laundry finally going to bed at 10. Chloe woke up at about 2:30 am hungry, so i feed the little one. She cried and fussed all night till about 4:30 am this morning. Mom was not a happy camper, but i never once felt selfish. Not i was tired, not i wanted to go to bed. It was why are you crying? What do you need? Why arent you tired??? (Hahaha!) But she did finally settle down and went to bed, of course she was back up at 7 am. But she is a baby, she has needs.
And this after noon she is sleeping lots. She will be having good awake time before she goes to bed so she will sleep like.. well a baby! :) Just thought i'd blog about my first encounter with an all night baby.

Congraduation!!!

Yes people, my amazing husband and marine is finally graduated from his MOS school!! YAY!! And not to mention, he graduated at the top of his class! Very proud wife and baby we have here at home! He is now officially a fleet marine. Fleet marine meaning he now has a normal (in military sense) job, and he can come home every night to his little family. :) But.. He can now be deployed with his unit he is in, if they are needed. :( Makes me very very nervous to know that, but to be quite honest, i am not too worried about it. I think things have worked out the way that they have for a reason and it will continue that way. He did sign up for this after all, and with marrying him I might as well have signed that dotted line too. We took Chloe to his graduation today, first serious outing she has been on, and she did AWESOME! I think she is just a gift. I have been so lucky to get about 6 hours of sleep at night, and i can take naps throughout the day. She is just such a sleepy baby that i can reap the benefits, and she gives mommy some nice benefits. :) Just a quick update, dr. appointment coming up soon.
