In Between Time

My hubby was able to come home for 2 weeks between a month of Combat Skills Training and a 6 month deployment. We got to do a lot of fun things and just spend some time at home together as a family. During this time hubby was able to help me wean our 13 month old, who has been a bit difficult through the whole process. We were able to get various errands done that we weren't able to do before he left for CST and we were even able to get some beach time in. Our last full day together we went out to Pier Park, had lunch, rode some rides with Annalese, took a walk out on the pier, did some shopping and had finished the day with ice cream. It was a fantastic day, gorgeous weather and the girls were really well behaved. Today hubby leaves at 3:45pm, thought I'd update my blog before he leaves. Following are some of my favorite pics from the past 2 weeks.

March for Babies Walk




I am walking for the March for Babies, March of Dimes fundraiser in 12 days. This organization is dear to me because my 13 month old Lillian was a preemie by 6 weeks. When she was born she was weighed only 4lbs 9oz the first is a newborn picture of her. She was in the NICU for 19 days before she could come home. Thanks to God and the work that March of Dimes has done for preemies research Lillian is a healthy baby and bring joy to our lives daily. This second picture was taken on her 1st Birthday last month, by http://www.injoyful.com/. She's still tiny but as her pediatrician says "she's prefect, just small." Can you please spare a few bucks to help babies and help me reach my goal for fundraising? If so just click on the March for Babies Banner at the top of this blog and it will take you to my page to donate for my walk. Thank You!
