So in order to get this blog up to date so I can start posting regularly again (it's a goal of mine) I need to get everyone up to date. Let's start the biggest news...
* Allie turned ONE on the 25th!!!! We started the day with a stop by the donut store to get her favorite breakfast (donut holes). We then went to Monkey-N-Around, an indoor playground and she had a blast playing with all the toys. We then came home and had dinner (potatoes, carrots and chicken...her favorite dinner) and then had cake and ice cream which she enjoyed immensely! I took a ton of pictures but unfortunately they are not uploaded on this computer. You can see them at my myspace www.myspace.com/lizpilkerton. It's public and all of the pictures are in an album there. She has 10 teeth now with more coming in all the time. Every time I look in her mouth I see new ones. She isn't walking yet. Today she did stand alone and took two steps so I was really excited about that.
*Julie is still her fun loving sweet self. I have so much fun with her. She truly is a joy. Right now she is still SO into her dance class and lately all she has been talking about is wanting to be in pageants. Today she said "You want to be a pageant mom?" NO Julianna I don't. I don't say that to her but that's how I feel. I'm not into the whole idea of pageants, I'm hoping this is a phase of hers and she will forget about it soon!!!
*I'm really worried about Joe lately. Over the last two weeks he has developed a really bad stutter, that is getting progressively worse. He has a doctor's appointment tomorrow morning so hopefully I'll find out what's going on then. He even says now "Mommy why do I stutter?" It's heartbreaking. And it's not a mild stutter...it's bad! I'll update tomorrow and let you know what I find out. With everything going on lately, it may just be his way of dealing with stress. Thankfully Bubba and I haven't been fighting but I think just the whole idea of us living in different places now is alot for him to handle.
*As for me I've been doing okay. Life has obviously gotten a lot more difficult with me having to do ALL the work. Bubba sees them Wednesday and Saturday. He is now in AA and I must say that he is making huge progress. His mind is in a good place right now and he seems really focused. I have been staying busy with the kids and their activities. I've been helping plan Joe's pre-school graduation (May 19th) and working on Julianna's dance recital (May 23rd).
Anyway, that's us in a nut shell right now. Hope life is going well for all of you. I'll update tomorrow after Joe's appointment.
