I am so overwhelmed with Joy at what God has given me. He has done exceedingly and abundantly above and beyond What I could ask or think in the children he has blessed me with. I am amazed at who he has made each of them and feel so incredibly lucky. I can't imagine life any other way and to think he had it all planned out.
I love Lexi's curiosity and how her mind if full of why's and questions right now. She wants to know everything and is so inquisitive about life and people and things. Sometimes it takes lots of patience to answer all those little questions but I love it! I love how fresh life is to a child and how we can easily take for granted what is so interesting to them. I will miss this stage when its gone, but hope she somehow is able to keep the heart of it... a fresh love for life and the wonders of God.
Matthew is just plain adorable and so huggable! He is the cutest 2 year old to ever walk the face of the earth! There is something so loveable and sweet about him. He is discovering so much and learning how to express himself through words. Each day he finds new words to express himself . He loves to be held and follows me around saying "up" or "hold me". He copys everything Lexi does and wants to be just like her. There is so much about him that impresses me. I love watching him think and then act on what is going on inside that little mind.
Hunter, oh Hunter is amazing! He sits there cute and sweet and sometimes fussy and hungry yet he is so so lovable! Its wonderful how a mom and baby can communicate and the bond I feel with him and yet he is still so tiny. He is starting to smile and be awake more. I cant really tell who he looks like. In some ways I think he looks like me with Jims coloring.
I LOVE being a mommy! I really do! I love being able to view life through the eyes of a child. I love asking them questions and hearing their answers, I love toy departments, bear stories, making them laugh, watching them explore this great big world, toddler kisses, hugs, cute clothes, parks and zoo's, how all the simple things that we take for granted come alive in the imagination and mind of a child.
I love being a mom but I love being a wife too! I am honored that God has given me such a wonderful husband to raise my kids with. I am glad that we are a team and can talk about our kids and experience their lives together. He is such a blessing to me! He never makes me feel like its all my job or role but always that they are our kids and together we will raise them to the best of our ability. He is great! and my life would be incomplete without him!!

Hi Tammie!
I live on Camp Pendleton in Southern California. It is in San Diego County just north of Oceanside. My husband has been stationed here since we got married. He may be going on recruiting duty for 3 years...if so we are hopefully going to be going to the Yuba City area because he will be working 12 hour days...and won't get a whole lot of time off...so I would rather be closer to family. The only nice thing about it is he will be non-deployable. He has already been to Iraq once...and I don't feel like going through another deployment yet...not with a newborn. Anyways...we are doing great! My son is amazing and I love being a Mommy...I was born for it! Kyler and I are flying to Sacramento on the 6th to go home and visit since none of the family besides my parents have been able to come here. Welp...it was wonderful to hear from you! Keep in touch!
Hugs,
tif :)
