Day 274/366

John has been working like a champ to put in this fence for our backyard! I wish I could help more but keeping a certain two-year-old who wants to "help" Daddy out of his way takes my time!

Day 273/366

Us girls made Daddy brownies while he was busy putting up a fence in the backyard.

Day 272/366

Juliet had fun today picking "flowers" for Mommy out of our front lawn. She was so happy each time she brought me a new one!

Day 271/366

Claire fell asleep while drinking her bottle this afternoon, she was even still holding it!

Day 270/366

We took a trip to the local grocery store, which was amazing and huge. Of course Juliet wanted to ride in the police car. This cart is seriously the hardest thing to "drive" ever, took some really talent to not run into several displays and other people along the way. And a happy Claire getting her diaper changed. The first thing she does is try to stick her foot in her mouth!

Day 269/366

We had a nice laid back day today. Claire passed out on the floor before I moved her into her crib for her morning nap. I'm so glad she is done being swaddled! And Juliet stole the duster and had a blast dusting everything she could, including Titus who wasn't so much a fan.

Day 268/366

Juliet loves her Titus. Every time we drive away from our house she waves at it and says bye to Titus!

Day 267/366

We went to Lowes to look at some rugs and lamps but Juliet quickly got distracted by the John Deere's. I think we have a country girl on our hands!

Day 266/366

We found a dangerously yummy frozen yogurt place in town, Juliet stole my bowl of strawberry lemonade sorbet!

Day 265/366

The weather here has been so warm and perfect. We've been warned that this fall like time only lasts a couple of weeks before it turns cold. Juliet loves walking in our neighborhood and is learning quickly about staying on the side of the road since there are no sidewalks here.

Day 264/366

 

Claire and I relaxed this evening while John took Juliet and Titus out for a walk.

Day 263/366

We spent most of the day unpacking and organizing the house. After Claire's afternoon nap we took a walk around the beautiful neighborhood. 

Day 262/366

We made it to our new home today! I love the neighborhood and all the friendly people!

Day 261/366

We had a nice easy drive out of San Antonio up to Fort Worth for the night! Tomorrow Oklahoma!

Day 260/366

It hasn't rained here in weeks... moving day, it pours ALL day! Juliet thought she was sneaky playing with Daddy's shaving cream while we were out loading the truck!

Day 259/366

 

I pass out on our closet floor after packing the last box! Our entire apartment is in boxes right now, all done in one day! John picks up the truck tomorrow morning and he gets the fun of loading all this stuff down a flight of stairs into the moving truck!



Day 258/366

John brought home some of his gear today, Juliet had fun wearing his helmet for all of 10 seconds!

Day 257/366

The girls and I hung out in the BX while John was off starting his out-processing paperwork so we can head to Oklahoma next week. This giant play kitchen kept Juliet occupied for a very long time while we were waiting!

Day 256/366

Juliet loves sitting with Daddy on his computer chair. She then opens up his wallet to play with his military id card.

John finished his last flight here, he's officially a T-6 Instructor Pilot!!!

Day 255/366

She loves her Daddy, and today of all days, we are so proud of his service and all those who came to serve after this tragic day 11 years ago...

Day 254/366

Juliet loves drawing circles and happy faces now, she'll draw on pretty much anything though!

Day 253/366

Claire has enjoyed having her swing back, and watching some football with us today! Go Packers!

Day 252/366

Juliet couldn't be happier than to be back with her Daddy!

Day 251/366

 

We were able to bring Claire's car seat on the plane so I didn't get stuck holding her for the three hour flight. Both girls' were angels until decent when Juliet woke up from a 20 minute nap and threw an amazing tantrum, kicking, screaming, and ripping her seat belt off. Thankfully all the nice people around us made comments about how her ears must have been hurting her, haha!

Day 250/366

What color are Claire's eyes today?

I don't really ever like using flash, but here it does help show her strange color eyes right now!
Today's our last day in CA, tomorrow we fly home to Daddy!

Day 249/366

Some strange weather here today, we were outside playing when it started to rain (well sprinkle on and off all day)!

Day 248/366

The girls enjoyed playing outside today, only a couple more days left in California!

Day 247/366

We drove back to Southern California today... I got to spend two hours in tears going over the Grapevine because of my sinus infection not allowing my ears to clear...

Day 246/366

Up on top of the world!

Day 245/366

Juliet LOVED playing in the dirt up at the H-Ranch today. All signs of my pretty princess are gone!
