This and that

I know I haven't posted anything in a while- sorry for that, I was just very busy with napping, growing a baby, walking Nelson, baking and cooking for several FRG events, helping out people, keeping the house clean, disposing of Halloween candy, doing arts and crafts for our FRG fundraiser, doing laundry, spending time with friends,....and most of all waiting for calls from Afghanistan!
Here are some pictures from Eric.

Eric promised to send more pictures soon!

Yesterday afternoon after preparing  the FRG fall carnival (Gavin, Chrissy, I, Tracie and Hunter):




Me and Aurora, a friend's baby. That night Gavin (one of Chrissy's sons) gave out teddy bears to all the children with one deployed parent. We (Baby J., Eric and I) got the big white one in the picture. Aurora got a bright pink one!


Ok you guys- enough now. I can't sit anymore... my ... hurts and I am getting hungry! Take care!
