So today is the BIG day! We upgrade to our 3 bedroom , 3 bathroom house - 2 story - , we are extreamly excited. Yesterday we had our inspection for our new house and that was a bit stressful and overwhelming so hopefully today goes better , I figured happy attitude can only lead to a happy move so we will see:) I have the best friends in the world , one is coming over to help me this morning , another invited Emilito and I over for an early breakfeast before the movers get here at 745am , and others have offered to watch Emilito. We have decided not to take Emilito to anyones house , we want him to see the pack out , its important at this age when he knows and can feel whats going on to really see whats happening. Hopefully the transition will be easier not only with this new house but with our next duty station as well. He has his train set that he gets to take and put in h is own room himself , what a big boy:) Anyways I will keep you updated on everything and hopefully take some pictures:) My camera and Syds camera broke ,I think I am bad luck thats the 3rd camera I have broke this year but no worries we have this amazing camera we bought that is on its way from Best Buy and I did pay 40.00 extra to get a 2 year accidental warranty for drops and spills , so we are good with that :) Anyways until then my friend will be taking pictures today , yay!! Thanks again for listening to me jab:) Oh by the way at least one of my neighbors I already LOVE , she is so helpful and great , and so good with Emilito , she let us in her house yesterday and Emilito loved her , yay!! Alright I better go , time to unplug all the cords , I may have internet tonight I may have internet in 3 weeks , time will tell:) Until then wish us luck and lots of prayers:)

Farmers Market
Today we had our Farmers Market , the Japanese bring in home grown organic fruits and vegetables , I was so excited because they had one a few months ago and I was on bedrest so I wasnt able to go to that one , so I was ecstatic that I could go to the one today. I bought eggplant , zuchinii , cucumbers , celary , onions ,tomatoes , peaches , apples , oranges , yellow kiwi , and normal kiwi , bananas , potatoes , mushrooms , grapes, anyways you get the point i bought a ton of fruits and vegetables and they were incredible deals i spent 46.00 and got all the fruits and vegetables and two plants that are called "happy plants" to put in my new house. I am extreamly excited , I definently got a steal today with all I bought. I was so happy:)Not only are they all healthy for us but its ORGANIC , AMAZING!! Anyways Just thought I would tell you about my steals today:)

Whats been going on here....
Well I havent blogged in a few days and here is why.... we are getting ready for our move , well I am. I have had a billion errands to run to change the cable and the phones and all that good stuff , not to mention go to PSD and the housing and personal property office:) My husband and Sydney left a few days ago , Sydney will be back the day we move so thats perfect but Emilio wont be back till September and only for about a week and gone till xmas. But we are so exciteed for this move , 5 days and we will be moving to our two story 3 bedroom 3 bathroom house , yay! It works out perfect because they are renivavating the place anyways so on a normal move if we moved we would have to move ourselves but since they are going to renovate this anywyas we get a free government move , which is awesome since I am 5 months prego and my husband is gone:) Its hard to believe I am 5 months pregnant already , amazing how time flies by! I am starting to get me a little belly its so stinkin cute , I cant wait for that big prego belly:) When we move , I am not sure if they connect everything or not , if not and I or Syd can not do it we possibly may not have internet for 3 weeks , which is honestly perfectly okay with me , just thought I would give you the heads up. Thank goodness my husband is only in Yokosuka for school with his ship so we can still talk free , so thats no problem:) Anyways things are going well for us , I have 4 inspections , well 3 to do by myself Sydney will be here for one . I have an amazing friend who is goingto watch my son the entire day so thats awesome so he doesnt have to be there for the whole move. But anywyas... Just wanted to update you on everything thats going on I have a doctors appointment in a couple weeks so will keep you updated on that!!

Here are some recent pictures of the little guy and what he has been up to , he has been quite busy! I dont have pictures up yet of him from his dance class but he started yesterday and takes tap and ballet and out of all the students in the class he was the only one who wasnt running around everywhere or screaming. I asked the assistant teacher how he did , she said "AMAZING , if you ever need a babysitter I will babysit him in a heart beat" , and the actual teacher said he was "wonderful" , so I am really excited! Sydney and I were the only parents to be able to leave all the other moms had to stay in their with their kids , it was awesome:) I was so proud of my little boy hopefully in a few weeks I will get some pictures I figured I would let him get adjusted first!! Anyways...
This first picture is of him learning to ride his bike:) I love the technique he took on this :)
He is practicing his hairstyling techniques and if I say so myself , this hair do on Sydney looks pretty awesome:)
