Time is flying by

I know it has been a while since I have posted anything. Life took over and I am just now starting to get my footing back. Since the last post we have had a few major life changes. For one my parents moved to Germany for three years so Justin went through a phase where he wanted nothing to do with his Papa or Grammy because they left him. He has since gotten over that and loves to talk to them over Skype. Then boys both had their birthdays. Justin turned 3 and James turned 1. It was very low key and the boys both enjoyed their special days. In October, Jonathan got out of the Air Force after 6 years. That was a big change for all of use since that is all I have ever known and we were moving to Alabama. I was so glad that we were moving closer to his family but it was going to a huge change for me after living in Montana most of my life. He has such as amazing family that is loving, caring, and willing to help out whenever needed.

Leaving Montana

 It took 5 days to get here and I was so thankful that Wayne, my father-in-law, helped us drive. We moved into with Wayne and could not ask for anything better. The boys get to see him everyday and love spending time with him. They go for rides around the yard in the golf cart or sit in his room watching tv. When we first got here Caren, my mother-in-law, was here fixing up a rental house that she just bought. Both of the boys love there Nene and it was great to spend the time with here before she went back to South Carolina. Just before Thanksgiving James got to meet his Pop, Jonathan's step-dad, for the first time. Thanksgiving was spent over at Jonathan's uncles house with all of his family. Justin made friends with a few of his cousins and was excited to have "friends". Christmas was spent at home and we had a very relaxing day.
 In April, my Mom flew back to the US for my sisters graduation from school. We were able to go up to Tennessee so that we could see them plus most of my Moms family. It was a nice break from everyday life. The boys got to go to the zoo for the first time and had so much fun. We also registered Justin for K4 in the fall. It will be very different around the house in the fall when he is at school most of the day.
Another thing is that the boys are both growing like weeds. Justin has been learning about everything around him. He always has a question to ask you. James has learned how to climb like a monkey and is really starting to talk. He is in the monkey see monkey do stage of learning. Justin has taught him a few bad habits that he pick up over the years. I am getting used to the hot weather that had come a little sooner then I am used to. Small town life and country living is growing on me.
