Been awhile, I know...

I know, it's been like a month since I posted anything. We've been busy cleaning the house and getting ready for Phil to come home (FINALLY) from Iraq. It's been a long 17 months, but I think it's been a wonderful growth opportunity for both of us.

I am nervous as heck about him coming home. He doesn't know that I've lost all but 3 lbs of the baby weight.... It'll be a surprise because all I said was, "I'm not where I want to be". Which, I'm still not.

When I think about it from a realistic point of view, I know he loves us and that I have nothing to worry about. He's the type of person who wouldn't have married anyone he didn't love "warts and all" as my mom says. I know he's chomping at the bit to get his hands on the baby, too.

In a couple days I will have new photos to post and will. She's getting so big - she ate green beans last night - not the puree'd baby food but the ones from the can. And she had a strawberry in one of those mesh feeder things. She sits up, she says "da da da" and "bla bla bla" and talks and sings "la la la". She made a move to crawl on Saturday but only went backwards. I hope she holds off on that one til Daddy comes home. God knows he deserves to see at least one of the major milestones.

More to come....
