BIG NEWS!!!

           I just had to get on here and record this!! Little Drew has had his first tooth cut thru today! WooHoo! Never thought I would be so excited for him, but this is cool. My baby is growing so fast, I cannot believe it!! It is one of his bottom teeth. I just hope it doesn't make nursing too difficult.

Scotland & England Trip

           We are finally back from an 8 day vacation. Scotland was amazing! And London was awesome, just ALOT of hard work with traveling in London with a baby! Having to carrying the stroller up and down all of those stairs in the underground is ALOT of work! Luckily there were alot of nice people there to help if Drew was unable to give me a hand. And Little Drew screamed like everytime we were on the underground or on the train or bus. He got ALOT of attention from people. He learned to shake everyone's hand. People would always try and help him stop crying.

            I don't know how long it is going to take me to finish writing about our trip in this blog, but I will conitue it later. May take a couple of days.... :)

Family Picture

           Today we went to church and it went well. It was fast and testimony meeting. I really like to try and make it to time to Sacrament on the first Sundays because fast and testimony meetings gives me the upliftment that I need. When we got home from church today, before everyone undressed or became a mess, we took family pictures. And I was just going to post those on here.

Getting Ready For The Trip!

           Drew and Spanky (our dog) fell asleep on the couch last night, Lil' Drew was in his crib asleep and I was finishing up some stuff on the computer last night before I realized I could have the whole bed to myself! So I logged off and hurried up and got ready for bed. I layed there relaxing and as I felt myself start to drift into slumber I heard crying which eventually turned into screaming. So I got up to feed Lil' Drew. Once I picked him up out of his crib I noticed his nose was quite runny. He didn't feel good and just wanted to be cuddled and ended up sleeping the whole night with me in the bed. I got like 3 hours of sleep. I hope and I pray it is just a runny nose and not the start of a cold!
          We have to get up EARLY Tuesday morning to drive to the airport. We are going to Scotland and stay there a couple of days then take a train from there to London, Englnd! And we will be staying in London a couple of days too. I have already been to London with a friend but Drew has not been yet. We are so excited about going! Thats why I am keeping an eye on Lil' Drew to make sure he is not sick. Yesterday we stopped by a store here in Bitburg called Kick and got him some boy "tights" to help keep his legs warmer. I also sewed something to help keep him warm. It is a fleece thing, almost like a pillowcase with a hole in the middle to put the stroller straps through to help keep the cold air off of his legs. We will be sure and take alot of pictures and write an entry in the blog about of trip, I am so EXCITED!! And I am looking forward to eating some GOOD fish and chips again! Mmmm!
           One thing that I was going to try and get us to do as a family this weekend, besides packing, was to kind of get "like" outfits on and take some sort of cute pictures for Christmas so we can make our own Christmas cards. It sounded easy last night when I was planning it all out. I was even thinking about us setting the tree up and taking pictures of us doing that.
            Here it is the end of the day and as I was unwinding I realized I forgot to record something very important in my blog that happened this week! Lil' Drew is getting around so good. He crawls around like a pro. He loves crawling up to the couch and pulling himself up on his knees and then from there he gets onto his feet. He will stand by the couch and slowly work his feet to where he is on the other end, either to me or our dog Spanky. And we ran into Brother Frost from church tonight while we were at Pizza Hut on the Spangdahlem Base and he said he could not believe how BIG he has gotten! (Lil' Drew gets that ALOT from people!)

 Let me see if I can find a recent picture of him to post on here for y'all to see.
