I can't believe its already the end of June! Doesn't seem like a month has passed since I wrote the last post.
June has been not such a great month. Its been hot, its been tiring, and its been stressful.
I think June has hit all of us hard. I think Brad has started to feel the stress of not being home. He would never say home sick but I think that's the case. I never dough that he has missed us since he left but I just think since he has been so busy since the beginning of the year he hasn't had much down time to sit and think. He has had a normal schedule since the beginning off of June. He worked nights, our days. So we were able to talk to him and see him a lot. We got kinda spoiled. This past Saturday he was able to go back and be with his Unit in Kuwait. The amenities are not as luxurious but he is so much happier there. He has been training since January and been with his unit. Come April he leaves country then leaves his unit behind to go to Bahrain. When you are deployed your unit becomes your family. You spend so much time with them, you rely on them. When he was in Bahrain he lived with two other men in a much nicer set up then he has now but he wouldn't go back there for nothing. So even though I wont get to "see him" or speak to him as often Im happy too.
Marley has two teeth...not sure if I shared that in the last post. Her two bottom teeth came in at the same time. She is sleeping and eating well. She has to weight close to 19 pounds! Im shopping for 9 month clothes, next week she'll be 6 months. Allie is back in the pool and loves it!!! She is swimming under water. The doggy paddle is not yet mastered. She can do a flip on her own. She loves the water!!!
July is going to be another busy month! Her birthday party is scheduled for July 14 at Arnold Rec Center. They have a huge outdoor pool. Lots of slides and things for the kids to do.
Planning a trip to the lake the last weekend in July. Marley will not be going. Too hot and too much for her. It will be nice for Allie to get some special time alone with me.
That is about it!
