Yardies, at home and a farrin' (Part 6)

[*SunRay* 1]

Happy monday everyone,

I hope you all had a great weekend. JaEng, I have to echo what everyone else has said, your son is super adorable and I just love your creative pics.

Sunny, I am glad things are moving along, hope you get a drop off date soon.

I am still hanging in there but still very upset about my current relationship status.. The one thing that keeps me going is the thought of holding my baby girl in my arms in a few months, everytime I feel a kick (which is quite often) it reminds me of what awaits.. I can't wait to see her already!

Thanks mommy girl... I hope that I hear something soon. You hang in there and things will work themselves out. Have you picked out a name for the baby?

Irie, those picutures are so darn cute. You and Louis look very nice together, and your daugther is the cutest...

Hey, Marlita....

Did you get your stimulus check yet? Today, I got a letter in the mail stating ours will go out June 27th and if I haven't gotten it 6 WEEKS LATER (OMFG!), to contact them.

MAN, i just came out of the subsaharan forum, wanted to see what else was going on with VJ and they are having one hell of a cat fight over there. I am so glad that the yardie thread isnt like that, seems like all the ladies and gents on this thread, just seem to have everyones best interest at heart.

You know I got that letter AFTER I got the check! You will get it soon - I am sure!

I have read some other threads as well. Sometimes I am afraid to make a comment because of the backhanded "what are you stupid" kind of comments that are made back! There are so many rude people out there. I know I shouldn't care but I keep my mouth shut!

JAENGLISH that is such a cute picture of your son. You should become a proffesional photographer because your pictures of him are so adorable. What a cute little boy you have.

Thanks

I do actually take photos professionally, done a few weddings and many portrait sessions

Here's my 'newest' fav of him

JAE...I love this shot! I think the lighter background works better in this shot than the black.

JAE....I knew those had to be professionally done. I kept thinking, does she really have a gigantic cup in her house? They are cute.

NO!! I havent even got my refund which is some thousands of dollars so i am QUITE UPSET!! I am waiting for that money to pay off some bills and just to have in my savings so I can start capitalizing the interest rates and they are taking forever, i think I got stuck in a hold up after requesting the W7 for my husband. This was the first time I filed as married and it a pain. Cant wait til he gets a social.

IrieCat...your daughter has the most captivating eyes. I love the pic of her parting the grass. Hubby is not bad on the eyes either.

Evening, all - I left work at noon today, went and got a spa pedicure, then came home and took a nap! I woke up and watched the Bucket List - incredibly sweet movie if you haven't seen it.

Congrats, Auntie Marlita, she's adorable! And I agree JAEng, the pics of your son just get cuter and cuter!

Gill, I agree with you about loving hearing the good stories - I am going to a baby shower next week for a friend who married a JA man on a K1 - they have been married 5 (I think) years, just bought a house, and this is their second child. She is a constant inspiration to me to have faith.

Welcome Army wife - I think you should be fine, as JAEng said - If your overstay was less than one year, then you should be able to adjust no problems - if it was greater than one year, you might have to file a waiver for the overstay - But I know people who have done similar and now have their green cards (not from JA).

Hope everyone has a good weekend - any plans?

I heard something about if the marriage was after more than 60 (or 90?) days in the country, the USCIS would automatically assume there was no intent to marry beforehand.....

I don't think she needs a waiver, I think those are for people abroad.....

I know she'll be just fine

Im located in Colorado Springs!!.....I'm not sure as I have yet to find one/friends out here!! just relocated from New York on Military orders....hubby in the army!

Wow, must be quite a change......I live in MD and it's so darn QUIET here!!

Wished I lived in NY or Florida...sigh...

Good morning JaEnglish,

I know Charles County is quite, you need to come over her to Prince George's county for a little action. HA Ha. Yes, Maryland is quite, but we love it here. I made it out to the Carribbean market you referred me to and it was great. I'm stocking up on small things that would make my hubsand feel at home, so when he reaches here I will already have those things on hand. I'm also learning to cook some of the dishes from JA. Your little one is very handsome, he reminds me of my son when he was his age. They grow so fast, so enjoy him. I hope you have an ejoyable Saturday. You really should try going to the farmer market over at the National Harbor. It is really nice.

Roxcie,

Where are you located. I'm in Bowie... Near the MVA in Largo. What market did you go to? I like the one on New Hampshire Ave.

JaEnglish,

Their trying to build up the Charles County area. It's getting better because I can remember when there was hardly any good stores down there. I'm down there from time to time. I have family in Brandywine.

The only reason why I would relocate to FL would be to fly back and forth to JA for little of nothing. lol

Sorry, I didn't see this before, I'm located in the Clinton area. There is a Farmer Market in Upper Marlboro and at the National Harbor in Oxon Hill.

Same here for locatioing to FLA, it would be to fly to JA for a cheap price.

Thanks! Tierra is a blessed little girl. I have blue eyes and her father has these hazely-greenish eyes. Her eyes change colors between the two. I think its the black eyelashes too. She will never have to wear makeup... lucky lucky girl.

I have had people ask if I perm her hair, put contacts in her eyes and put makeup on her... and this started when she was @ 2!!! Who does that to children!!?? LOL

Irie, between you and JaEnglish, Mommy2B and Army wife, as well as the other new mommies, i have baby on the brain these days . Your gonna have to beat the boys off of tierra when she turns into a teen, as she is so cute. She resembles you around the eyes. But you, her and Louis, make a perfect cute family.
