its been awhile....

It has been awhile since the last post. So the updates are this:
Lyla is MOBILE! and when I say mobile, i mean she cant sit still for more than .25 seconds! she is everywhere all the time. and on top of that she is about to walk any time now. She has now worked up the courage to let go when she stands, so now she is standing almost on her own! So the fun has begun!!!
She is just growing way too fast. This past weekend made her 9 months old. I cant believe that my baby girl will be turning 1 year old in November.

On other notes, not many exciting things have been happening. This past weekend Johnny and I went to his high school reunion. It was so nice to meet all of his high school friends! They were all so nice and sweet! - Other than that we just had family time!

So now the hurricane is suppose to be here this weekend, and I was going to go visit my sister, but I think Irene wants me to have other plans :( I'm bummed about it, b/c I miss my sissy and my nephew... well maybe next weekend or something we can see her.

Well now its tuesday and I had last week off from class, so tonight its back to the drawing board.

Other than those updates, there is really nothing special going on.
Oh wait, there is something special coming up- mine and johnny's 2 year wedding anniversary! I cant believe its already been 2 years, and we have a baby girl. Sometimes i look back and i think how did we get to this point. Time is flying by, which only makes remember to enjoy all the good and awesome memories that we make. Actaully the death of a dear dear friend made me realize how important my family is to me. I dont know what I would do if I didnt have my family. My life would not feel complete if I didnt have Johnny or Lyla or anyone else in my family.
After my dad passed away a big hole was left in my heart. That hole will always be there. Its not going anywhere. I think back to that time when I got that phone call, and I remember all the pain and suffering I went through in the past 2 years. I often times cursed God for bringing so much emotion and emptiness in my life, BUT now, looking back I actually have to give thanks to God b/c had I not gone through that, I wouldnt be the person I am today. And i might not possibly have my family. So i have to be thankful for the strength i gained. I know a lot of times it is hard to move on from situations, such as death, but its important to remember that you are not moving on, your moving away from the negativity of the situation and focusing on all the postive energy and all the great memories that were made.
yes i think i am rambling, but this is just something i needed to express. i think its important for people to know that you have to treasure the time you have NOW b/c you never know what might happen the next day, or in the next few minutes.

well enough with the rambling.....
soon i will be posting some new pics of lyla bug :)
