It's been a while

I'm sorry. My computer broke on the 9th.. and is still broken... and  I'd been super busy with cleaning and going to NY and to  Washington D.C.
On the bright side, in all my busy, I have managed to complete 3 more things on my list. I walked everyday for a month, took a picture a day for a month and I drove in 5 different states! I also ate something I never had before. So 1 down and 19 more to go for that thing on my list. Pretty amazing! 
I had a wonderful time on my trip. I'll update about that when I get a chance.
I'm also excited because Jake is going to be coming home soon! I cant wait. When he gets home and we get everything arranged, he'll be taking leave before he has to report to school and we're taking a road trip to Great Lakes! First stopping at D.C  & P.A! 
Amongst that news, it looks like I'm going to be going on a cruise next year! My aunt and her family are flying here next summer and we're having a family reunion of sorts.. and my mother tells me the plan is for a cruise! Better start saving my money now!! 
I'm racking my brain now trying to figure out what else to  update on......... hmm .I guess that is all then.

Walked for 3 hours today

at the mall while I was looking for some boots. I really needed some boots that were decently priced, because I was just going to wear them for my trip and they were probably going to get messed up from the weather. So around the mall we went. Checked nearly every store I could think of that would have boots. No luck. After walking around so much, it was time for lunch. I had a flatbread cold cut trio while Addison had McDonalds. We stopped by the Disney store and bought a Bolt plush and Nemo plush. It was buy one get one free, so it was a pretty good deal. We made our way back to JCPenny and while on the way I thought we'd stop by just one more store. It used to be Limited Too, but now it's called Justice. I just wanted to take a look, didnt think I would find boots in a kid store, but guess what, I did! They were half off too which made it even better.

I'm going to have to chase her soon!

Ellie has been pulling up more and more, I'm sure pretty soon she'll be walking around with Addison getting into all sorts of trouble! She loves standing up but sometimes, she gets into such awkward angles, it's really funny to watch, Went again to Target and got some excercise there. It was a pretty good trip, got a few leggings and tights for the girls for the trip and of course, more food. Going out again tomorrow to continue the search for boots!

Crazy excited

because they're going over to a friend's house to play! Dropped Addison off while I went to get Lumpia and Pancit at this market/ restaurant. Had to wait half an hour for the nice lady to cook the pancit, so Ellie and I walked around the plaza. It was a nice challenging walk, seeing as I had Ellie in her carrier! Enjoyed a nice day with friends :]

I dropped the box by accident

and Addison took it upon herself to use up the last 4 to decorate her leg! Lovely isnt it! She not only covered up the cut she drew on her leg, she limped around for a little bit too! Now that's amazingly dramatic if you ask me! Went on a nice walk today around the apartment buildings.

Update

Tonight, I'm planning on loading up on coffee so I could stay up and catch up on some blogging and housework. Stay tuned :D.

Groundhog Day

We had an appoimtment early in the morning, so we were up for breakfast. Nothing special, just McDonalds. Ran a few other errands and planned to stay in for the rest of the day because it was starting to sprinkle during the drive home. Not much went on.

Going out!

So it was finally melted enough to get out and drive, but still not advised. I had to go out though to get food! I didnt think we'd last another day on Top Ramen or Apple Juice! I think we did pretty good considering it was my first time ever driving in these conditions!

It has been two weeks without Jake being home and I'm not sure if it's getting easier, or if she just doesnt want to ask anymore. We've been able to talk to him though. I'm scared of what the next phone bill will look like even though we have that international calling plan! Jake just needs to come home already! I know that he's helping where help is needed though!

Made up for my 2 days of not walking by walking a WHOLE lot around Target. Gotta get that excercise in somewhere :P

Snowed in!

So after all that glorious and beautiful snow, we're snowed in! It is both unideal (is that a word?) to go for a walk or a drive!

Picture: 22/31

Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!

Gosh! I didnt think we'd get snow... and if any, I didnt think we'd get THIS much! So awesome!!

Weather hindered our plans for a walk, so until it is safe to walk around, we'll be staying inside!

Facial Expression

Omg how I love my daughters and their facial expressions! In the picture, Ellie is giving her sister this look as if saying "Psh I could do that 10x better if I could bounce on the bed!" Gotta love em! Also, went for a nice walk.
