Yikes!

Oh My! I've been putting off this post for a while. Mostly because when I'm at the computer I'm generally nursing and unable to reach the keyboard over my giant baby! Speaking of baby he had his 2 month check up today and he weighs in at a whopping 13 pounds 6 ounces!!! That's a heck of a baby! He's doing great. Cute as a button and all sorts of cuddly. Walker is still loving being a big brother although he sometimes forgets that wiggly baby feet are not for licking.

On another completely unrelated note, I've been trying to get more involved with the FRG and volunteering through it because I've come to my own personally little revelation that as a military family we should be the first to give. Not necessarily because we're super awesome people (which some of us are,) but instead because we know and understand how much the little stuff means to us. What a difference it makes when someone helps you up 3 flights of stairs with a ton of groceries and a screaming baby. Or holds the CMR door while you drag out the third giant box that won't fit in the trunk this week and your crabby three year old. Even when someone invites you out for a cup of coffee because you feel horribly left out as the only spouse without kids. It all makes a difference and really how hard is it to help? How much does it really take to offer a hand where a hand is needed? Especially as deployment looms closer daily and my husband apparently comes home in 4 day increments before leaving for weeks on end again, it makes a difference.

Now make to the beginning note......BABY PICTURES!!!!!!
ok...I admit thats not the baby...instead its my baby belly inside normal jeans! Hooah! I look good!!
