I'm walkin' on sunshine!!!

I can hardly believe it is Spring! I am so happy because by the time Winter is here this year, so will AJ be! I think I can definitely handle the rest of the seasons without him! Winter is the hardest! Here are some things I'm looking forward to this summer:

~I am almost done with school! This is my last week and I really only have 2 tests this week. One on Tuesday and one on Thursday and then I'm done! I am really looking forward to summer break! I am really happy I was in school this semester, but I am excited to just focus on being Elijah's mommy this summer and on losing weight!

~Elijah will be 2 on the 18th! I can't believe it! He's growing so fast! He is saying all sorts of things now and putting sentences together! I am so amazed by the new things he says every single day! He's a smart little guy!

~I am going to California in June! I can't wait! Elijah is coming, too. We're going to visit my friend Kristin! We'll be staying there for 5 days!!!! It's going to be so fun!!

~AJ will be home in less than 2 months for his 2 week R and R!!! I am so excited! I can't wait to hug him and kiss him and stare at him! Ahhh!!! I miss him so much and it'll be so nice to be a family again! And then after he leaves he will only have 3 and a half months left til he's home for good! The time really has been going so fast! Everyone said it would and apparently they were right! I'm so thankful!

~My brother comes home in about a month and a half for his R and R! He will be able to see his daughter Sophia for the first time! I am really excited for him to see her. She's so beautiful and he is so excited to have a daughter!

~We ordered a bike trailer from Walmart! It should be here this week and I'm really looking forward to getting groceries with it and riding everywhere with it! My goal is to walk and ride my bike as much as possible and to drive the car as little as possible this summer!

~My friend Kristin and I start training for a walking marathon tomorrow! We are going to do the marathon in Las Vegas in December! We are really excited about it and our husbands are coming with us! We're going to try to leave our kids with other people and just hang out with our husbands and each other all weekend! It'll be so great and by walking so much I'm sure I'll lose some of this weight!

That's about all I can think of to write right now. It's so hard to come up with blogging ideas! I need to get creative! I'm gonna think of a way to make this a fun blog! :) Hope you're all enjoying the beautiful weather!
