Auctavine eatting baby food!!

Auctavine has been eating baby food for a month now but daddy has only got to feed the boy a few times. The following clip is one of the times daddy was feeding the boy. It is cute and you should have a look.


As you can see I had to take over and this is what happened.

Two years ago today...

It is hard to believe that two years ago today Jesse and I got married!! It does not feel like we have been married that long but we have. I remember that day like it was yesterday.

I was so scared that he would not be there to get me from the air port on November 11, 2006 but he was there with a single red rose. I had only taken little cat naps here and there on my 14 hour plain ride from Okinawa, Japan to Arizona all because of my fear which seeing him I knew every thing would go as we planed. Or so I thought but Jesse had made other plans!!

When we parted in September for him to go back to the states for training we had made plans to get married in LasVages but Jesse knew it would mean more to me if my dad could walk me down the esile and give my hand in marriage. So Jesse got in touch with both our mothers and sisters to ask them to help him give me the wedding I dreamed of since I was a little girl by having my father give my hand in marriage.

To be honest Jesse gave me more then what I ever dreamed of that cold day in November. He had got my parents, sister, niece and nephew from Ohio to Arizona. My older brother helped out by driving up from Yuma to Flagstaff with both his cars so that my whole family would be at my wedding. The whole time he never told me that my family would be there. My older brother kept telling me that he would be there no matter what but I was like no it is not fair. Boy was I so fooled.

Any way Jesse got me from the airport with our friend Jenna (she was going to be our witness in Vages) and took the long way to Flagstaff. He did that because he had a spot picked out to offically ask me to marry him. I was going to get my ring but that had to wait till I met his family because the place was closed. All I wanted to do was take a nap but never had time because we only had an hour before we had to be at sizzler for dinner with his mom and Tom.

That was a great night even though I was tired. Not only did I met Jesse's mom Lee and Tom but I also met his two sisters and there family. Plus I got the shock of my life!!! There at sizzler sitting in front of us when his family wanted a picture of the two of us sat my dad, mom, sister, brother, sister-in-law, both my nieces and all three of my nephews. I cried. Jesse made me so happy that all I could do was cry. They were not tears of sadness but tears of JOY!! Jesse went out of his way to make sure my dad was there. That all happened on November 11.

Then on November 13, 2006 at around one or two in the afternoon after a cold morning of pictures. My father walked me down the esile to marry Jesse. It was one of the happiest days of my life. Shortly after that we came back to Okinawa and were only together here for about a month before he left for Iraq.

We spent about nine months out of our first year apart but during that time it brought us closer. He returned two months before our one year anniversary but it did not really feel like we had been married for a year because of the time away from each other, however, this past year it has. A month after he got home we found out we were going to be parents.

That was joyful news. Jesse wanted to be around for the pregnancy and birth of our first child. He was around for the most of the pregnancy and he did not miss out on the 42 hours in the hospital for the induced labor the doctors put me through so that Auctavine could come in to this world on June 10, 2008. The second happiest day of my life. So I don't think Jesse and I have done too bad for being married two years.

Granted I never said any thing about our bumps or hard spots on our road of marriage because that is part of the trip. It is better to talk about the good times because those out weight the bad. I just can not believe we have been married two years and have a five month three day old little baby boy!! Where ever does the time go??

What more can I say but...
