April 12th 2009!!! Our 1st anniversary, we got to spend the evening out without worrying about our little bundle of joy thanks to her granny. i got dressed up and Chris took me to a very expensive restaurant. when I walked in all I could see was pretty people and beautiful tables with big glasses of wine. we were seated and left to think about what we wanted to eat. which ended up being stake. who would have thought.lol we learned a lot as we sat there eating AND enjoying our meal. apparently at this restaurant your expected to send your plate back three or four times before you actually start to eat. we discovered this by watching a number of other people do this several times. the longer we sat the more out of place we felt. I decided I would rather eat popeye's any day. (the stake was great!!! ) we left not completely full but satisfied as they serve very little with a nice big price tag on it.lol we had three more hrs to do what ever we wanted. a movie was our 1st idea. but when we looked at the movies they were either R or boring or just stupid. so our search continued. we just wanted to act like kids. so we tried walking the mall. that lasted 15 min in which we walked the entire mall and ended up buying wendy a big green bow. so we decided to just drive and maybe we'd think of something. Our only other option was a bar... which is not an option for us, plus we cant even get in due to our age.lol so we just laughed at our selves trying to b kids and decided our parents were rite when they said "there's nothing worth doing past 9 at night." so much for that. so at 8 30 we were heading home to pick up what we had missed so much all evening. there is always something to do when our Wendy is with us. even at night.lol

Rayne Drop From Heaven...

Wendy Rayne Johnson

This is some of the pics off my phone. Im in Love!!!!! cant stop looking into those beautiful eyes and only thinking one thing. thank God for that little life. her first lil smile was at two weeks and now my baby coos and goos and smiles and laughs when I kiss her. she cries when she cant see me and watches me as I work. she falls to sleep in my arms and wakes up with a smile. she hates to be held like a baby. she wants to look at the world. She sleeps in her bed now and only wakes up two times. her hair looks like mine but her face looks like her dad. shes heaven on earth. she loves me to sing AS THE DEER i really think she knows what song it is. Ive sung it since i was preg with her. any way. chris and I are having a blast. shes my lil Rayne drop from heaven. and my new best friend. we talk and sleep and smile together and somtimes we even cry. mainly cause we both want to sleep. lol so thats whats up. ill write again someday. iv stoped saying soon.lol

Im back!!!! I think... nothing is for sure anymore. like sleep and when i can eat. im typing with one hand right now.lol (forgive the lake of capitals and miss spelling. the miss spelling has nothing to do with my new way of typing, just me :) iv learned a lot of cool stuff, i can eat and feed wendy at the same time. sleep and feed wendy, iv even managed to make a surprise dinner for my hubby and feed Wendy at the same time. dinner was a surprise after me not cooking for three weeks. lol he got his new job and Wendy and I wanted to do something for our man. wendy was not much help, I fed her every ten min for five min. I realize it would have been btr to just to feed her fo the 30 min and then cook but I started late.lol so life has changed a lot. there is no possible way on earth to make a five min run to the store b4 sup, and never plan a full night of sleep and when you get it its great. and shopping is not fun anymore. just a pain in your booty. (really) but i wouldn't trade wendy for any of that stuff. she it the sunshine in my day. and sometimes at night. she has the most beautiful little face. i hate when she is awake and someone els has her. im a jealous momma. but shes myn. lol but I love ppl to love her and look at her. so today she is three weeks and three days and still changing my life (for the better) everyday. he uncles that live here,Andrew ,Luke and Brandon. are in love. but shes stolen her daddy's hart and doesn't plan on giving it back to just me anytime soon. Hes in love with us both. so we use it when we want something.lol hes the sweetest daddy ever. anyway, ill post some pics soon. but iv got things to do now. bye!!!

She won't be this small for long...

Abby was amazed at how tiny Wendys hands were..

She has her smile back! Isn't that a beautiful mama?

She's the BEST THING!

The waiting is almost over...

Waiting on Wendy...

Well today is my due date. But Wendy is still not here. It seems like yesterday I was braking the news to everyone,and now I'm here, 40 weeks. Iv had a great preg. long like every one's, but good.:) But as great as its been I'm ready to hold a baby. so my Dr. gave me the ok on going in this week. so I'm heading to the hospital tonight and they will start me at 4 in the morning. so Ill have a baby by tomorrow night. I'm going to go for a natural birth and so far feel really good about everything. I have a good man to stay with me though everything and my family that I know will be praying me through. My mom washed all my clothes for me and I've cleaned my little house from top to bottom.lol Christopher took yesterday to spend with just me. He helped me clean and cooked for me and made me laugh a lot and then he made me our own little party with a movie, candy, and he played games with me. It was fun. So I guess that's the end of being two crazy old kids. Its time to be momma and daddy now.

These are my tulips. I got them for a dollar and watered them every day. I was so excited to see what colors they are.

I'm still waiting for my little girl to get here.My Dr is out of town this week and wont be back till Monday.I'm really tired of waiting but like its cool to think that I will for sure have Wendy by the end of next week. I'm taking this time to kinda get everything ready and spend as much time with Chris as I can cause I know we will never be 18 and have no kids again. Its great, and we have really enjoyed the three hr walks in walmart,lol we get to talk a lot and laugh at how I walk funny and how I cant help but want to eat everything I see.(Chris st oped taking me on the grocery side of the store.) I have to say Its not fair of people to tell you how great it is to be preg. I mean its great and beautiful in that you are a mommy and your holding a sweet life in you and keeping it safe. but when your over the toilet throwing up your guts or trying to shop and you have to make 500 trips to the bathroom or when your just trying to get some sleep and your back and legs and feet and everything hurts. you do not see anything beautiful or great or even good about it. But I guess thats what God ment when he seid "Pain in child bearing" he ment all 9 months.lol dont take it wrong I am blessed. Iv made it this far and I'm actually doing OK. my big sis,mom,dad,little bro. my father in law, mother in law are all keeping me busy. and making sure I don't get down. So I'm still waiting on Wendy but I'm not going crazy, Yet.lol I'm just going to be like so excited once she gets here.

Of Life, Love, and the Loss of Quiet Evenings

I've gotten to grow and mature alot as a person in the last year or so. I've gotten a "real job", quit my "real job", gotten married, bought my wife a car, moved out of my parents house, and then moved a hundred and fifty-seven thousand miles away from them (none of that necessarily in that order). But by far the thing that I've grown from the most would have to be finding out that I'm going to be a daddy.
It's the craziest thing in the world. Gone are the nights of, what do you call it? Oh yeah, sleep. Now it's, "Wake up! It's moving!", which you had better watch, feel, ohh, ahh, wiggle and giggle like your life depends on it, 'cause you're sleeping on the couch if you don't. I even have to help her into and out of my beautiful car, which I bought and fixed up when I didn't realize I was gonna be loading this much stuff in and out of it. And I have to make all the midnight runs for the craziest crap you can imagine... At first, I wanted to just so I could say that I had. Now I'm not real worried about it.
I now get to look forward to the long nights of trying to get the baby to sleep, worrying about it because it's actually being quiet, rocking it, helping feed it, change it, clothe it, change it, feed it, change it, and put it to sleep again. I'm sure I'll miss all the runs to the store "just to walk around", going to the movies "just because we can", and sleeping in on Saturdays "just because". But it'll all be worth it in the end.
