We Miss You Daddy!!

 
 
 
Chris has been away on business for over a week with a few more days to go. We are counting down. Claire misses her Daddy. She especially enjoys his entertainment as I can't be "on" 100% of the time. I do my best, but I don't compare. I miss my partner. Waking up each and every night, several times per night as of late, changing every diaper, giving every bath, feeding each meal, reading, playing and providing all the fun is EXHAUSTING!! And to think our child is awesome. She's laid back, happy go lucky and a pretty independent kiddo. I don't know how single parents do it. I have the upmost respect for them, that's for sure. So, this post is for Chris. We love you and miss you! Here are some pictures from your daughter. She is going to give you tough competition for the remote. It seems to be her new fascination--that and my cell phone. I think she may want her own. Is 8 months too early?? She is also wanting to stand ALL THE TIME!! It is cute, but again tiring. You were worried you would miss her crawling debut, but no such luck. I am not sure either of us will see it. Maybe she'll surprise us with a walk instead. Anyway, exciting days are ahead. We can't wait to see you.

4 months

We are potentially down to our last four months in Korea. I say "potentially" because it rests solely on where we are going. If we are heading back to the States, we will most likely be leaving early June so that we can enjoy a full summer with family and have time to get settled before Claire begins school. We caught wind today of what could be our next assignment. Although it is far from official word, all of a sudden my tummy is filled with butterflies. I had the privilege of teaching a little first grade girl who was one of a set of quadruplets. They (she and her sisters) are the most delightful little girls. They are well behaved and truly beautiful inside and out. Anyway, their family was due to PCS (military move) in December. I teased her that I was going to follow her and live down the road. While they were house hunting, I continually asked if there was a neighboring house for me. She'd laugh and giggle, not really sure if I was serious or not. Her Mom thought

A post

You wanted it, you asked for it, so here it is. A post. Hopefully this post will satisfy all your desires. I am not writing about the apple of my eye, Claire, but of the other apple of my eye--reality tv. I love it! Right now I am getting my fill of Big Brother. I have even lured Chris into my dark place. He mostly watched last season because Dick was such a jerk, but Chris is hooked. He's a dedicated viewer once again this season. Sadly, he was a fan of Matty who was kicked off a few weeks ago. I don't think I have a favorite. I find them all to be so obnoxious, yet I watch. Go figure. I obviously need some more excitement in my life. Girls who wear butt showing shorts, screaming matches, verbal abuse, crazy eyes, back stabbing, boys running around in their colored tighty whiteys (if tighty whiteys are colored, are they still called tighty whiteys?)---all in one episode! It is a gold mine. My second can't miss show is Housewives of Orange County or New York City. I really

Progress

I used to be prompt about scrapbooking in Claire's album. After seeing my sister's pictures piled up three children later, I was determined not to have the same fate. I am sure it is difficult for some of you to believe, but since Claire has been born, my free time has been limited. Really, it has. So, our pictures are finding their way into piles too--5 to be exact. However, I am thrilled to say that I finished (ok, they aren't completely finished, but nearly. I only have journaling to do.) six pages. Yes, that's right, I said SIX!! It was a major accomplishment. Here they are for your viewing pleasure. Only 5 more months left to get through....any volunteers? Jessica???
