Well sweeties, it will be just us girls for the next month. Your hard-working daddy is in California at the National Training Center (NTC) for pre-deployment training. While I never look forward to his time away, I know that it is part of his job. We are truly fortunate to have had so much time with him home since 2008. I always try to make sure he knows we enjoy him being home; I never want to cause him stress or heartache for doing his job so well. He won't deploy until later this year but this time away is required and we're looking at it as training here at home too. I am full-time parent with zero breaks and it can be exhausting some days. However, I can honestly say I find joy in every day I spend with you two. You amaze me...everyday. Here are a couple videos of what you two have been up to this week.
Charlotte, you still love to hang, climb, slide, and swing in your "garden", as you call it. You're thoughtful, inquisitive, and so independent.
Olivia, you're getting more and more determined to increase your mobility each and every day. You're 7 months and you're low crawling through the whole house, sitting up from your crawling position, and have even tried pulling up a couple of times. I see you get intrigued by something across the room and crawl out of eye sight of me but if I leave the room your burst into tears. So I suppose you're independent on your own terms. You love your mama so much and it warms my heart! Notice what you do when I say, "See ya later", in this video.
