So a lot has happened since I have last written. David now has 2 teeth, RW has been home for his R&R, we have taken a trip to Alabama and then back to California, got a black lab, RW left, and my friend Sara (an Army wife also) moved in with us while our hubby's are away. Hmm...I think that about covers it! Lol! Lets get started...
As far as David goes, his teeth are coming in nicely. He looks so darn cute with those 2 bottom
teeth! I was sad when I noticed that he was getting his teeth, because I loved his toothless grin. I am now loving his little 2 teeth smile! ♥
RW came home for a visit. That was the best thing EVER! It had been 8 months since we had seen one another, so this was HUGE!! Plus, it was the first time he had ever seen David in person! That just blessed my heart so much, seeing father and son bonding the way that they did. David took to RW immediately! I was so happy! :)
Only being here for 2 weeks, RW and I had lots to do. We made a trip to Alabama to visit his family.
It was the first time they had met David too, well except for Aunt Rachel! She made a visit out here to CA to visit David when he was 3 months, so he had changed a lot by the time we went back there. We had a good visit there. The bummer was that David got sick! He got an ear infection and was so congested. Bless his little heart, as sick as he was he remained in good spirits! :)
We came back to CA and just spent some time together as a family! It was wonderful! About 2 days before RW had to leave again, he decided
that he wanted to get his black lab! He had been wanting one for quite some time. He had a black lab when he was a kid and has wanted one ever since! Soo...we found one on craigslist. He is about a year and a half old, and his name is Holt. He is a sweet dog! RW only had about a day with him before he had to leave. So now I definitely had my hands full with a 7 month old and a puppy! LOL! Its funny because now it seems like our little family is complete, well for now at least! RW was just beaming because he was so happy to have
his dog! I loved to see that, it made me so happy!
The night before RW left to head back "across the pond", we went up and stayed in a hotel right by the airport because his flight left out really early in the morning! I was so sad to see him go! It was just horrible, luckily he will
be back sooner than later so that is a blessing! I can't wait for that! He was having a hard time leaving too, he said that having a wife and son, and now his dog made it so much harder to leave! It broke my heart when he told me that! I just felt so helpless. It is times like that where there are no words to say that can give comfort, just being there and holding his hand listening to what he had to say was what he needed! I can do that! :) I am anxiously awaiting the Homecoming of my Soldier, and the day we are all together as a family again! :) ♥
My friend, Sara a fellow Army wife moved in with us today for a couple months while our hubby's are away! We are so happy to have her here! It will be a fun next few months! :)
That about wraps up what has been going on here! I really need to stop waiting so long to write, then I wouldn't have so much to catch you all up on! LOL! I was a little busy though, I am sure you all understand...right!? ;)
I got a call from my hubby tonight! It was so good to hear his voice! He is making the journey back just fine. Not much longer and he will be back here with us! I can't wait!!
teeth! I was sad when I noticed that he was getting his teeth, because I loved his toothless grin. I am now loving his little 2 teeth smile! ♥

On a side note, David started teething! He cut his first tooth on Thursday, and then the other one broke through today! He gets cranky, but he is actually doing remarkably well! He is an easy going baby, and while he gets fussy I guess it could be worse. I am just going to count my blessings and pray that it doesn't get any worse! :) I can't believe he is 6 months now! Time flies, I must say that I LOVE this age! He is a blast!! I wish I could just freeze him and keep him at this age for a while! LOL!
