Hi Memphis' Mom!

Hi Memphis' Mom!

Sorry for late post...

9:34 AM

...Been so busy with everything. Memphis and I are in Ohio at my grandparent's house, enjoying the one foot of snow. I actually like it now that I'm up here. It's not as bad as I remember, I guess thats because I go from heated house to heated car to heated buildings. School is keeping me really busy this nine weeks. I have this one teacher that like to take points off for things that are specified in our syllabus. I have one B thanks to her. Anyway I'm missing John more and more. It's been so so hard for me to be away from him. Hopefully he comes to visit around the 20th of Febuary. I'm glad to be out of San Antonio now, I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. It feels good to be around family now if only I had John too it would be perfect.

I've started planning me and John's wedding which will happen in September and when I decide on a date will let everyone know! It's going to be a 50's themed wedding with hints of Asian things here and there. It will be neat! I'm also busy planning that so I am keeping myself busy busy busy so I don't worry myself sick about John.

Anyway Memphis and I are doing fine, missing his daddy though. We're keeping as warm as possible! I've got some pictures I will put in a new post for all to enjoy!

A TOOTH!!!!!

1:25 PM

So yesterday I was feeding Moo some carrots with a big person spoon because all of his were dirty and I heard a distinct cling sound and when I felt his gums I can feel a little hard tooth peeking through! No wonder he's been a fussy gus lately. He gave his Daddy a hard time last night while I was at work. I think it's been hurting him and making him irritable, more so than he usually is. I was so excited when I found the tooth that I squeeled again and scared Memphis! I always do that when I get too excited! I don't have any pictures of the tooth yet but when you can actually see it I'll try to snap some.

It's getting closer and closer to moving time, and we still have so much to sell and box up. I need to have everything sold and shipped by the time I fly out of here Jan. 27th. I'm also in the last 2 weeks of my 3rd and 4th classes in school and I need to finish a paper and complete a powerpoint presentation. I better get busy!

Frustration!!!

1:20 PM

Ok so John and I tried to get ACTUAL cell phone service but for it to be under my name we'd have to pay a 700 dollar deposit per phone and 300 per phone for his. BS if you ask me. Makes me so mad!!!!! Anyway december is already going by fast. Pretty soon it will be time for me and Memphis to leave and we are so far from being ready. We are selling basically everything we own and will start over fresh and new! It'll feel good though to start over. I'm excited to leave here, it's so drepressing sometimes. The only downside is me and Memphis won't see John for maybe a few months, hopefully only 2 at the most. Whenever the snow decides to melt in NY. Anyway I don't have any new pics uploaded so this is just a short post to catch people up!

Traveling...

3:39 PM












This picture deffinately sums up the attitude Memphis is developing with me and John! Little Punk!
















So I'm moving really soon, in a little less than 8 weeks, which will go fast anyway. Last week seemed like I was really busy and I sort of procrastinated on some school work and ended up turning it in the day before it was due, which is totally unlike me because I'm usually done with everything fir the week by wednesday. Anyway I guess it seemed busy because John was on vacation and it's hard to focus on school when he's around, which is funny because Memphis demands more of my attention than John does. haha Anyway now it's back to normal and John's at work. Oh I also started my job back up at Old Navy but I only work 3 days a week at the most. Last week was great because when John is working we only have 2 or 3 full days together and I start to miss him. It's going to be so hard when me and Moo go to Ohio for a month or two or whenever the snow decides to melt in NY. I'm gonna miss John so much, and John will miss Memphis a bunch! We are going to chat on the webcam every night though so he can see Memphis everyday. I'm also really nervous still about flying. All the flight cancelations in the midwest due to snow is maing me really nervous, because the weather is usually worse in January. So I'm hopinh for smooth travel and no long layovers and cancelations because that will be hell with Memphis! Anyway I'm posting some pics of Moo!
These socks are brand new and already a hole! hahahaha Moo's foot




HAHAHAHA I always catch Moo closing his eyes!

Yay Yay Yay!!!!!

9:38 AM






I have most excellent news to tell: Memphis and I will be leaving San Antonio forever January 27th!!! We will be flying to Ohio and staying with my grandma and grandpa for a while, maybe until the snow melts. John will be staying here for a few weeks to a month and then he will drive to NY and come pick me up in Ohio! I'm sooooooooo excited!!! This means I have a ton of work to do before we take off. We need to start packing and selling everything! I also got my job back at Old Navy so we'll have those paychecks to add onto of savings pot! I am so happy I'm over joyed! I couldn't sleep last night because of all the thinking I've been doing! John and I both feel better now, before we were both getting depressed thinking about having to stay here until May. But now we can just start preparing to leave and never come back here to SA.






Anyway here are some pics of the Moo!

Winter ghosts

8:57 AM






Now it's starting to feel like fall here in Texas. Today is really windy and chilly, so nice not to have to use the airconditioning and we are saving a lot of money by not using it! This past weekend was fun, John finally got 2 days off in a row! We went to old navy to buy some clothes for John because he has no winter-y clothes. He says he wants to start dressing better, I'm such a trendsetter! The Moo keeps growing like a weed, he giggles and laughs a lot more and I have the pics to prove it! John and me were playing games with Moo trying to make him laugh, so cute! Memphis likes to grap John's face and suck on his nose, it's adorable.






I think there are raccoons living in our ceiling because we hear them crawling around and banging on stuff and scratching! I'm just waiting for one to run out of the fire-place like a wild monkey! It creeps me out when they are crawling around because they make loud banging noises. I especially get creeped out when I've been watching too much Ghost Hunters on the scifi channel! That show freaks me out. John has told me some of his paranormal experiences he's had and they scare me. I believe in ghosts but I don't want to meet any...NO thanks! I like not pooping in my pants! We are moving to NY which has a lot of history and some of it violent and his parents live right accross from a cemetary. Cemetaries are fun but only during the day! John's mom also said she could get me a job at a nail salon so that would be nice.

Eeeeeewww...

9:40 AM


This is a new picture that was taken last thursday! Doesn't Moo look so precious. His facial expressions look so sweet it makes me want to cry sometimes...out of joy of course!
So John and I are so excited about moving. We decided we only need about five grande saved up and an extra 1200 just to move, thats including my plane ticket and a carrier for the scion. So we want to move end of April early May because then we'll have more of a summer in New York and we can get ready for the long winter ahead because neither of us are used to it anymore, especially me. I just cannot wait to move!!! The other night we were all laying in bed as a family talking and laughing and Moo was eating when all of a sudden i felt this thing crawl across my hand which was under a pillow. I knew exactly what it was and i flew up and John flew up taking the computer with him, low and behold it was a huge roach so i ran out of the room with Memphis still attached and John killed it. I was so freaked out I slept on the couch with Moo leaving John all alone. haha I felt bad but I was too scared. John says it's too cold where his parents live for roaches to live and survive but he said they are all over NYC. Thankfully we are not moving there!

We're moving!!!

7:19 AM










Me and the Moo just got back from dropping John off at the airport (something I HATE doing) because he's going to dallas to pick up a motorcycle he bought from an old Vietnamese man. Won't that man be surprised when he sees a very Vietnamese John get off the plane! (he has no idea what John looks like only that his name is John Carnahan hehe) I miss John already... No matter how many time he has flown, or I've flown for that matter because it's been more than him, I still worry!!! He's then driving a truck back with the motorcycle in it on the 6 hour drive back to here from dallas! Anyway I've convinced John that we need to move to New York in June!! Actually I didn't need much convincing he is just excited about moving as I am. He says he's more relaxed now that he doesn't have to worry about where we are gonna live thats not ghetto or too expensive!


I've added some good pics of Memphis, some of these are old but I had forgotten to add them, they were taken on my phone. Seriously though I am soooo so excited about moving closer to both our families! John's excited about going back to school. He's gonna do dental hygienist instead of radiology because he said dentists pay more. We'll see he may change his mind again.



I cannot wait until we move! I'm so sick of San Antonio I could puke! I want Memphis to grow up in the country like I did with lots of room to run around and play and explore! John's parent's house sits on quite a bit of land so he'll have plenty of room. Plus he has a cousin who is only 6 months older than he is and that lives near by so he'll have someone his age to play with.


Doesn't Moo look like the sweetest baby ever in this picture? He's holding his monkey rattle thingy. He loves putting it in his mouth and sucking on it! He's getting soooo big, he's already growing out of his 3-6 month clothes! Anyways thats enough for now!

Today is John's B-DAY!!!! Yay!!!

7:01 AM

So my big baby is 27 today!!!! He has no idea but I'm baking him a cake for when he comes home...he'll be so surprised! We also decided we are moving to New York with his parents in May 09! I am so happy, he told his parents last night and they are, of course, very happy! We'll only be a few hours, not days, away from my family in Ohio! The only thing I'm worried about is the winter and how I' going to adjust to it. I will have to buy snow stuff. I havn't lived in snow for 13 years!!! I'm just glad we're moving out of San Antonio...no more HUGE roaches in the bathroom!!! We'll be living in the country so Memphis will have places to go run around and play!!! I'm soooooo excited! I can also get a part time job while John's mom happily cares for Memphis, I bet shes so excited because Memphis looks just like John did when he was a baby so it will be like raising John again! Anyway gotta go back to sleep now I'm tiiiired!

frustrations...

10:40 AM

Ok so while I wait for technical support to fix whats wrong with my school's website I will write a blog! Memphis is asleep next to me right now with his soothie still in his mouth! That thing is a life saver! Anyway he's been super cute this past weekend except for yesterday, he was really fussy! His medicine for his reflux seems to work although he spits most of it out! He's a lot calmer now in the evening time when he was usually fussy. Maybe it's because he's getting older who knows...

Lately i've been having these scary dreams. Last night I had one about someone getting murdered in our apartment complex...it was scary. John and I are really frustrated trying to find another apartment that is affordable and NOT ghetto! I suggested to him last night that we should just move to New York with his parents like they suggested. His dad said he could get John a job up there and I could also work while Memphis had quality time with his grandparents! We would be saving money the whole time for John to go back to school and if we wanted we could get an apartment of our own because I know living with his parents would get old. We both just wanna get out of San Antonio so bad...I'm afraid if we stay we will get stuck here!
