Aloha Hawaii,Howdy Texas

I can’t believe that I have actually left Hawaii after 16 long years.I was excited about it and know I’m like what in the world have I gotten myself into.Texas just might be a little bit to country for me.We have been looking for houses the last two days and I’m not impressed too much by it.The best area to live in around here is Harker Heights.The houses that we have looked at over there are really nice.Renting there is good but I don’t think it’s in area that i would buy.We just need to get a house quick because dragging the kids everywhere we go is getting old and chaotic.I do miss Hawaii but i miss my friends and the routine that I had but I don’t miss Hawaii state.I still can’t believe that I’m not in Hawaii.

Jaiden Takes a Bath

In addtion to crawling all over the house Jaiden has also become quite the expert when it comes to sitting up on her own (and standing with the aid of furniture).  The primary benefit of this to us, is that we were able to give away the little baby bath, and start letting Jaiden enjoy the tub … normally with her sister Jasmine … but since we’ve been in billeting, she’s had the tub all to herself.

Of course I had to get my camera out, so that we have a good supply of blackmail pictures when she gets older.

OMG!!! Jaiden is crawling

It’s way to soon for me that the baby is mobile.I want to keep her a baby for as long as i can but she keeps growing on me.Jaiden is now getting into everything.I laugh that she now can crawl to me crying to be picked up.She looks for me everywhere which makes it hard to do things at times when i need to get chores done.I know that it’s ok for her to cry but i just can’t help but to pick her up when she starts.She is the baby so i have to spoil her.

p.s Happy Birthday Grandma
