4 years done, 4 to go??




Well I have to do a little brag post about Randan. Today he's been in the Marine Corps for 4 years! Its so crazy to me. what a crazy 4 years its been. I missed the whole boot camp phase but since he got back from boot camp we've been together. He has worked so hard and gone to so many schools not to mention gotten high shooter and been at the top of the class in most of them. he's deployed twice, once on a MEU for 8 months. and the second one to Afghanistan where he got shot 2 months into it. he's been in the sniper platoon for I think 3 years maybe just 2 I'm not sure and has loved it! He really enjoys his job and what he does, which makes it all worth it. He would be getting out today but with being shot he'll have to stay in at least until his leg is completely healed which who knows how long that'll be, he's going in for another surgery on sept. 12th. he's even contemplating signing on for another 4 years but we'll just see. one day at a time :) I'm so proud of Randan and all that he's accomplished in his 4 years in the Marine Corps. He's such a great Marine, husband and daddy! don't know what we'd do without him!

3 months and a move!



another month gone!
Emma is talking up a storm, she sits in her swing and gabbers at her bird mobil, so cute :)
Smiles like crazy
Giggles the cutest little giggle that gets me every time
puts EVERYTHING in her mouth, i try to giver her a toy to play with and it goes straight to her mouth
is a bit like her momma, likes attention and entertainment 24/7 :/
still sleeps so good
and still is not to fond of her car seat. hopefully now she'll spend less time in it!
she's startin to get in the crawlin mood. okay prob not but she'll push up on her elbows and stick her cute lil bum in the air. mostly just when she's mad. :)

and, we moved AGAIN! ha ha. The military wont let Randan out of the Marine Cops until his leg is completely healed and his doc told him it'd be a while. so we decided we'd been apart long enough and traveled the roads too much. so we put our house up for rent and within 2 days had renters.(kind of bitter sweet) so 2 weeks later and here we are, back in California. we decided to live on base this time so we're in Oceanside, CA. Its fun to be back and nice to be out of that crazy St.George heat! I'm excited to live here again and let Emmi experience the beautiful beach! my mom, meag(sister), and reece (meags husband) came to Cali and helped us move it was fun having them here and we were so grateful for their help! We'll miss you all! Come visit ;)
