Just because I've been doing a horrible job posting pictures of my handsome little man, doesn't mean I'm still not snapping away :-) He smiles so much ... he is rolling over now ... and he likes to "fight" with the bird on his play mat :-) He CONSTANTLY watches his brothers. He pretty much always knows what they are doing. It's obvious he can't wait to join in on the fun. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So, here are some pictures of Chase over the past couple of weeks. He changes more every day!! The one thing NOT changing (so far) are his BLUE EYES. I'm really hoping he keeps those killer eyes!</div>

Gosh, Jake has already been in school now for 3 weeks. I'm behind!! :-) It's hard to believe that this time next year, he will be in Kindergarten. What in the world?! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is now his 3rd preschool in his 2 years of preschool life :-) He's such a trooper - and thankfully such a people person that he has no trouble making friends. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here he is on his 1st day of preschool before we left. Between Cole and Chase, I wasn't able to get any pictures really in the classroom (it's always crazy the first day anyway), so one of these days, I will. Promise.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The ONLY person with tears on his first day of school was Cole. Cried all the way home "Jakkke. Mommy, turn around and pick up Jakkkke. Jakkkke."</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Even 3 weeks later, Cole greets Jake every day at pick up with a great big hug. </div>

So, even though Chase is about to be 3 months in a couple of days, we just had his 2 month appointment a week ago (with the moving and all, it was hard to get him in right at 2 months). We made his doctor appointment a family affair :-)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Chase weighed in at 14.4lbs and 25.5inches (82% and 86%).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The boy is going to be big .... he's already in a lot of 6 month clothes - and loves to eat.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'm feeling pretty fortunate, too, because he's pretty much sleeping through the night now (although I don't want to jinx this) :-) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The only problem with the appointment is when Jake overheard the Doctor talking about Chase getting shots, Jake started crying. We were wondering what was going on ... and Jake said he was really upset that Chase was getting shots - and he didn't want them to give his brother shots :-) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Of course Jake and Cole weren't in the room for the vaccinations - but it was pretty sweet of Jake looking out for his younger brother. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Other than that little incident, Chase got a good report ... and not to sound like a broken record, but I really can not believe he is going to be 3 months old in 2 days!</div>

I'm serious about what I'm about to say. I could stare at this face all day long! I'm pretty sure I think every stage is the "most exciting" (well, minus the "terrible twos") ;-) BUT right now with Chase, we are in that smiling back at your phase and even laughing. Just when I thought my heart couldn't melt any more! I'm loving it ... it is just so amazing. He is just so amazing. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I hope he knows how much JOY each and every smile brings me. </div>

So, being the awesome, cool, amazing, fantastic, FUN, creative sister that she is ... Jul decided it would be a great idea to throw a Gender Reveal Party. These are the latest and greatest things. Every one that is some one is doing it - ha :-) (so, I have to admit I definitely highly encouraged her to go through with it, so that I could live vicariously through her, since they weren't that "big" when I've been pregnant ... and we also have never lived closed to family when finding out the gender anyway).<br />
Plus, let's be serious. Who doesn't love a good party, right?! <br />
So, Jul and Matt went on August 3 for her "big" ultrasound, had the tech put the gender in a sealed envelope, and Jul took that envelope to the bakery for them to make a cake with the filling either blue or pink .... all to be REVEALED with family and some friends this past weekend! FUN FUN FUN idea. Thankfully for technology, we were able to Skype in during the cutting of the cake "ceremony" and also see it revealed with everyone else. I love technology!! <br />
I'm really happy for Jul and Matt .... I'm so excited to be an aunt! I can't wait!!!<br />
So, here's the video I took ....<br />
It's a ......<br />

I totally thought it was going to be a girl. That was my guess. BUT I'm super excited for another boy. Call me biased, but I just have so much fun with my boys - that I'm so glad they will have a boy cousin so close to their ages. Plus, he will have all the "hand me downs" that he could ever imagine. There are going to be lots of FUN times ahead for these cousins! Way excited to start making some memories. <br />
Congratulations Jul and Matt!!! We are so excited to have a nephew and a little boy cousin :-)!!! Your lives are about to be changed in the most amazing way! <br />
Now, if only I can talk Chris into 1 more, so that we can throw a party .... haha!

We have been BUSY since getting here. This whole living on base thing is going to work out well for our family, I think. There is just so much to do with the boys! I love that. I love that the sun is (almost) always shining ... and there are always things to do. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Today was one of those busy and FUN days. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Chris is still in the field (hurry up time) ... BUT this morning, I watched a friend's little girl while she had an appointment.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Then, after she got picked up, the boys and I headed to the splash park to meet some friends! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here are the boys enjoying running around in the water ... </div>

Well, I'm pretty much all caught up blogging now :-) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here are just a few more random pictures from the past week of things we have been up to :-)</div>

Grocery Shopping. Everyone was in a good mood ... THIS is just what they do when I say smile.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
As much as I'd probably rather do grocery shopping w/o 3 kids, it actually works out pretty well - and they are good companions :-)</div>

(and one day soon, we will ditch Cole's pacifier. I just have to work myself up for that. But soon.)</div>

Love this little guy! He is SUCH a 2 year old these days, though. A 2 1/2 year old (because I swear the 3s are worse). I also just think that out of all 3 of the boys, Cole has had the hardest time understanding and adjusting to all the change. He has done a pretty good job - but I just think he is at an age to be most confused. He's so fun-loving, though. So resilient. All of them are. I'm so lucky - and beyond thankful for these precious faces! </div>

I unpacked <b>THE</b> play mat. I say THE play mat, b/c Jake and Cole LOVED this play mat with the star on top ... and Chase is the same way. Forget the "underwater fish" one. Chase LOVES this blinking star! It totally reminds me of Jake who would just stare at it and smile away! :-)</div>

Daddy has been in the field for a little while now (feels like a long while - we miss him), BUT we are staying busy and keeping the FUN alive, with our latest "adventure" being bowling and pizza on Friday night with friends :-) The boys had a blast - and we are thankful for the friends we are making here in 29 Palms. The Lord always always always provides. </div>

Unfortunately, when I was taking these videos, I had no idea which tank Chris was actually on. This 1st video shows the first 4 tanks heading out .... and come to find out later, Chris's actual tank that he was on was #5. Go figure. <br />

NERF GUNS!!!! Jake and Cole were pretty excited that I bought them one, too .... so they could fight back, of course. Lots of nerf gun wars have taken place in this house over the past week!</div>

So, when we arrived in the "high desert" (as Jake says, now that he has heard us talk about it), Chris was out in the field, so we had a couple of days here FIRST before we even got to see him .... BUT it was SO SWEET to all be reunited again. The boys were so excited!! </div>

The unpacking is never ending. You would think w/ all these moves, it would get easier, but I guess 2 toddlers and a newborn slows you down a little bit :-) I still have a little unpacking and organizing left to do, but .... it'll get done. The house is "livable" now - and that's all that matters at this point. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thank GOODNESS that Mom stayed for 9 days. I couldn't have done it w/o her - no way! So, not only did she clean and unpack and organize - BUT she spent a lot of time distracting the boys, so I can't thank her enough!! </div>

I surprised the boys with an Angry Birds bathroom. I normally wouldn't choose to use a character theme in their bathroom, b/c character themes come and go ...

I was happy to get to show Uncle Hal, Aunt Mary Anne, and Mary Ellen where we will live for the next 2+ years. It's hard to really imagine how different it is out here - until you see it for yourself. Needless to say, I'm glad they were able to see where we call "home" these days!</div>

Uncle Hal, Aunt Mary Anne, and Mary Ellen came bearing an inflatable pool gift. Way fun! However, we had to blow it up - and fill it with water (without knowing where our air pump OR hose was ... since we had just gotten there - and everything was in boxes). </div>

Only I can blog about driving across country over and over and over again ... and still think you guys want to see pictures of it :-) My "over-achieving" plan when we left was to get all 3 kids out of the car at each state line/sign and get pictures. THAT plan quickly changed when all 3 kids were asleep at the Tennessee state line :-) I decided maybe we would just save that for another trip across country :-)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We were PACKED and loaded down!! AND even as we were driving away, I was thinking of how I still could have fit a little bit more in the van (and on top) :-)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The boys were all such troopers being packed in - and Mom and Dad, too!! Here are some pictures from the trip!! </div>

Truth be told, the boys all did AMAZING on this long road trip. Really. I'm not just saying that. BUT there were a few moments with tears (normally from fighting over the same toy and not from being IN the car) :-) I had to take a picture of this - mainly because they both look so pathetic - and it was only 6:15AM ... and we had been driving for like 6 minutes on this day :-)</div>

It especially reminds me of this country song by Jason Aldean. Click on the link and have the song play in the background while you read the lyrics and look at the pictures from my 7th trip across in 6 years :-)<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial; font-size: 13px;">A couple of guys in first class on a flight<br />From New York to Los Angeles<br />Kinda making small talk killin' time<br />Flirting with the flight attendants<br />Thirty thousand feet above, could be Oklahoma<br /><br />Just a bunch of square cornfields and wheat farms<br />Man, it all looks the same<br />Miles and miles of back roads and highways<br />Connecting little towns with funny names<br />Who'd want to live down there, in the middle of nowhere<br /><br />They've never drove through Indiana<br />Met the man who plowed that earth<br />Planted that seed, busted his ass for you and me<br />Or caught a harvest moon in Kansas<br />They'd understand why God made<br />Those fly over states<br /><br />I bet that mile long Santa Fe<br />Freight train engineer's seen it all<br />Just like that flatbed cowboy<br />Stacking US Steel on a three day haul<br />Roads and rails under their feet<br />Yeah, that sounds like a first class seat<br /><br />On the plains of Oklahoma<br />With a windshield sunset in your eyes<br />Like a watercolored painted sky<br />You'll think heavens doors have opened<br />You'll understand why God made<br />Those fly over states<br /><br />Take a ride across the badlands<br />Feel that freedom on your face<br />Breathe in all that open space<br />Meet a girl from Amarillo<br />You'll understand why God made<br />You might even wanna plant your stakes<br />In those fly over states<br /><br />Have you ever been through Indiana<br />On the plains of Oklahoma<br />Take a ride</span></div>

It has been SO HOT here! The heat has pretty much kept us inside, which especially with boys... it gets a little crazy. So, since we were supposed to leave for CA on Tuesday and our trip had to get pushed back a few days, we had no plans yesterday ... and we decided to taken an impromptu trip to Kangaroo Jac's again - this time with Mimi and Papa Dee. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
An afternoon filled with jumping on bouncy houses and then Ray's Italian Ice (new place we found in Richmond - definitely recommend) made for an outstanding day yesterday! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I need to invest in about 5 bouncy houses for our basement. The boys LOVE it ... and they just run and bounce and slide non-stop!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It is so fun watching them play together and truly enjoy each other. Cole wants to do everything Jake is doing - and Jake does pretty well <i>letting</i> Cole do everything he is doing. Even though they know how to push each other's buttons ... I love that they have each other. </div>

Going too fast down the slide for the picture to even come out. There were BIG smiles on these faces, though!</div>

Chase enjoyed himself, too. The noise of all the kids in that place kept him sleeping soundly (pretty sure Chase finds comfort in noise, since that's all he's used to) :-)</div>

Now, for a day of running some last minute errands and finishing filling up the van :-) Then, another chapter begins ....Allison Ashinhursthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00873205872048964261noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2591962591205062474.post-33856202513479228132012-07-19T06:30:00.004-04:002012-07-19T06:30:51.367-04:00Finishing VA Strong...<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We leave tomorrow to make our LONG (and FUN) journey back to California. I'll mention it again, because it's quite impressive, but this will be Jake's 6th time driving across country. He's 4. It will be Cole's 3rd time. He's 2. It'll be Chase's 1st ... he's 7 weeks. He is about a week and a half YOUNGER than Jake was when he took his first trip across country. The pressure is on, Chase :-)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'm looking forward to getting out to CA - and being a family of 5. I mean, as of today, we have seen Chris for about 2 1/2 weeks over the past 6+ months, so I'm ready. SAD to leave family and friends in VA, though. I know I'll get out there and adjust and get into our routine, but thinking about making that "break" now is hard. It has just been so great being around family over the past 6 months. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We have been finishing strong here in VA.... and having LOTS of fun on our way out. I could never thank my family or my in-laws (to include sisters-in-law) enough for EVERYTHING over the past 6 months - but mainly all the attention and love and support given to Jake and Cole (and Chase here at the end, too). It will be a definite adjustment for them not having grandparents and aunts and uncle close by .... BUT we definitely already look forward to all the memories that will be made with visits out to California. </div>

I don't even think about leaving this girl :-( How great it has been to have 6 months living close to my sister and best friend. And now she's about to have her first baby, and I'm going to be 3000 miles away. Booo on that (the being 3000 miles away, not the baby - super pumped about that)!!!</div>

Our friends the Kilians just moved to Charlottesville for a year and the Everetts moved to Quantico for 10 months. Unfortunately, they get here while we are on our way out ... BUT we all met up in Richmond last week at Kangaroo Jac's for an afternoon of running around and then dinner at Moe's. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love picking up where we left off with friends. One of my favorites things about this crazy life we live :-) </div>

Another close friend just got to Quantico this week - 3 days before I leave :-( It was so good to see Danika the other day - and I'm so happy she got to meet Chase. I think a pedicure is in our future today, too, so I'm glad we had a little time together before I head West. </div>

Before leaving VA, I wanted to get some pictures of the boys. I decided back in South Carolina that every place we lived, I wanted to try and get pictures with the family at a location that represents the uniqueness and character of the place/state we lived. So, even though VA is where we are "from," so we will be back ... I still wanted to get some pictures of the boys before we left. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
April took these pictures for us in Downtown Fredericksburg at Kenmore Plantation. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She got some great shots, I think ... especially when you're trying to get pictures of a 4, 2, and 6 week old. Jake and Cole were a riot during this. We definitely had some good laughs while trying to get them to both look and smile at the same time :-) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Honestly, though.... sometimes candid shots are some of the best. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here are some of the awesome pictures April got of the boys. Thanks, April!!!</div>

Well, we did it! We made it back to DC one last time :-) This past week, after Jake finished camp, we picked him up and headed North. First, we went to the Iwo Jima Memorial. Then, we met up with Jul after work and hit up the Air and Space Museum. The boys liked this one - but not near as much as they liked the Natural History Museum. In fact, after Air and Space (and astronaut ice cream), we made our way back to see the dinosaurs .... It was being persistently requested :-)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
You would have thought they had never seen them before (and definitely not just last week). They LOVED them once again!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
After that, we rode the carousel on the Mall. $3.50/person (including me). THAT'S how much I love them. As I was getting dizzy from it going around and around and around, I realized more fully that it was a "rip off" that I had to pay $3.50. They should pay ME to ride that thing with my boys :-) It was fun, though - and the JOY on the boys' faces was well work $3.50/person :-)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
After that, we ate at Fuddruckers ... and then made our way home.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I will miss DC. As I've said, no matter how many times you go, it just never gets old. There is always so much to see - and even though I grew up here and have been A LOT, I feel like a tourist every time with my camera :-)</div>

We celebrated Poppy's 42nd Birthday on Monday (okay, so he's not 42... close enough) :-)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We went to Capital Ale House in Downtown Fredericksburg for burgers ... and then to the park for some cake and presents. Being able to share occasions like birthdays is one of the MAJOR perks to living close to family. It was FUN being able to be there and actually CELEBRATE with Poppy (and not just from afar). Happy Birthday Poppy. We sure are thankful for you ... and we love us some Poppy! </div>

Yes, grandparents are THAT cool that they let us sing twice, so that BOTH boys get a turn at helping Poppy blow out the candles. :-)<br />

This past Sunday night, we had a huge thunderstorm - and lightning hit the house! It was pretty scary - you could see a spark. I've never felt (or heard) something like that. As the evening went on, we kept smelling a gas smell. To make a long story short, we ended up having to evacuate the house (the boys were already sleeping) ... and the Gas Company came out and realized that lightning had struck the gas line, putting a hole in it, causing a leak. They turned off the gas - and we were able to go back inside ... BUT they are still in the process of fixing it all (they had to cut through dry wall to get to the hole). <br />
Obviously, we are all just thankful that we are okay. These storms have been brutal in our area, lately. <br />
I got a video during the hail part of the storm. I can't remember a time I've seen hail that huge! <br />
