So this is the olny contest I enter Johnny in just about every year. Not for the fame or the fourtune but for the clothes!!! Baby Gap is where I do 95% of my shopping for Johnny and it would be pretty cool to see his cute face on the door. There are two different winners the grand prize winner who recieves money, and a photo shoot and a job as the new face of Gap (big deal) then there is a fan favorite winner that recieves a gap wardrobe. This is where yall come in the fan favorite is determined by peoples votes. So if you have a min everyday (LOL) go to the website and vote for Johnny. (I really dont expect him to win b/c some how people get thousands and thousands of votes but I dont want him to only have 5) He is entered 4 different times each with a different picture. So once you get there you might as well vote for all of them.
Thanks for the support!

The 2 Week recap.....
So I didnt really keep the blog updated but can you blame me? We had a really great (very busy) 2 weeks that went so fast I cant believe John is gone again. Here is a recap,
1. Johnnys birthday and party were a success, like I said in a previous post we took him to the fair which is great for people watching and fun. I know the boy is fearless but for some reason it always surprises me. He rode everything he could have ridden and was wanting to go on the grown up rides. (he is nuts) It hasn't rained in GA for months but of course the day of his outdoor party the sky was blac
k. Luckily the park has a large covered pavilion so I just set up under that. The kids all arrived and got their tats and swards and I saw them instantly transform to pirates. They ran around beating each other for 30 min when it was pinata time, which was filled with pirate eye patches, pirate silly bandz and yes some candy. They all really had fun whacking that bad pirate head. Then the reason Johnny had to have a pirate party, the freaking cake (that only came in a large size). It was pretty cool. All in all he had a great birthday and was so happy John was a part of it.
2. The wedding we went to was for our good friends Tricia and Matt, and it was beautiful! John and I were both in the wedding party and Johnny was the ring bearer. He is getting pretty good at this, maybe I can start renting him out. LOL They got married in the most beautiful catholic cathedral in Atl, which meant it was a full mass which to me meant Johnny had to be still. Thank GOD for Gigi, after Johnny walked down the isle he went and sat with her. She kept him quiet with mellow cream pumpkins. So what if his mouth was or
ange, and he was all hyped up on sugar he was quiet! Johnny burned all the energy off on the dance floor, he was John and my entertainment. Yall know he has got some moves!
In between all of this John got to see Karate two times, gymnastics, an Astros game have a couple home cooked meals, celebrate his birthday, did a lot of yardwork (and purchased a new mower), got a pumpkin, did family pictures and got to see some friends. It was so wonderful being back together as a family which really made it hard to se
e him go again, especially knowing everything he is going to
miss with the holidays coming up. Plus this time Johnny understands he is leaving for a while I just hope this makes him realize John will be back. And this time the wait is a bit shorter, I added a new ticker to the blog he will return in Jan. So we have to get back into the routine, hopefully Johnny will behave and I am going to put a lot of effort into finding John a job so come Janurary he can stay!

After being pulled in every direction I was ready for some quiet time so we headed to Gatlinberg and Pigeon Forge TN. We got a beautiful cabin overlooking the mountains and the drive was bre
athtaking. The first night we were there we went to the Dixie Stamped
e which is Dolly's dinner and a show. The food was amazing and the show was really good. There was an arena filled with a thousand people and part of the act was selecting 4 children to go in the arena and chase chickens. Of course Johnny got picked. (He is always going to feel the world revolves around him) He got pretty intimidated once he got down there but he stayed and got an autographed book from Dolly Parten. Yee Haw.

The next day we did the aquarium and a museum that was upside down called wonderworks (where yes, Johnny climbed to the top of a rock wall!). It was a lot of fun and good family time.

My Baby is 4!!
"Making the decision to have a child is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body" a great quote from Elizabeth Stone that my girlfriend shared with me.I can hardly believe it has been 5 years since I found out I was pregnant. What a privilege it is to be a parent, scary as hell but one of the best things that has ever happened to me. Johnny has taught me so much about myself and given me a new perspective on life that I will always be grateful for. Happy Birthday Johnny Blue!
I sent him to school this morning bouncing off the walls excited about the day and the frosted sugar cookies to share with his class. (and of course that daddys home.) We are going to open presents then off to the fair. After that GiGi's and Poppy's for cake and more presents. If you cant tell by now, birthdays really suck around here . lol Then on Sat he is having a Pirate Party at the park with his friends that will involve inflatable swords and a pinata! Fun times

Johnny loves his dada
I will probably be MIA for the next 2 weeks that John is home but will try to keep the blog updated. Johnny has not let go of John since he got home, his hand has been holding a foot, a finger, a neck anything on John. I woke up in the middle of the night and Johnny was sleeping on top of John with both arms wrapped around his neck so tight I was concerned if John was breathing. lol. And every other thing outta the boys mouth is love you dada, im glad your home dada it is so sweet and I know it is making John feel good. I have never seen Johnny so happy. He and John truly have a bond that is unbreakable. I dont know how he is going to leave again all I know is its amazing to have him home.

Cell Phone
John finally got his cell phone. Which is really good I will be able to keep in touch with him while he is traveling. I believe he will start heading this way on Saturday. He hasn't exactly gotten it all figured out yet but he has a number its a long one so grab a pen, and I don't think we will be able to save it in our phones.
1 866)305-6462 then you will be prompted to enter the global # 447924802923. This is a free call for you to make and free for him to receive. When he is back in the states he will have a new number, hopefully a 770 and I will let y'all know what it is. So if you want to give him a call go ahead and give it a try just don't forget there is a time difference, and he needs all the sleep he can get.

Play Balllllll
Fall ball has offici
ally started, and started good. Johnny had his first game on Saturday and the Astros added a new assistant coach to the team, Poppy!! Everyone is really excited to have his help out there, especially Blue. It was good to see Johnny out there hustling for the ball, I must say he does get competitive and he is a bit of a ball hog. (A couple times he snatched the ball out of his team mates glove, guess we will work on that) 
He got his first hit of the season off the pitch and for me the highlight of the game was his slide into home. I enjoy watching him, and while I was watching all these little Astro's play I had a great idea for an invention, of course I am not going to blog about the idea but I will keep yall updated on the progress. And yes I am going to pursue it, I have seen too many of dads ideas in the store! But how in the world does someone keep quiet about something so good? I will have to get on this ASAP.
