A fun fall week











This week has been a fun one. Hunny girl and I stayed busy with walks, trips to the park, baking, and just playing. It's hard trying to stay busy with just Isabelle and I. But we do, I always figure something out...

When I really think about it I get sad, and sometimes want to cry. Our life being closer to family would be so different. For instance, I talk to my mom almost every single day, on top of my 2 besties that I talk to at least 2-3 times a week. Lord, if we were closer to home...there'd be trips to my parents house probably every other day! Play dates every weekend with my girlfriends. Birthday parties, girls night out, craft days, (clearly my craft schedule with girlfriends is out the window, tear.)The list is endless...so I breath, say a little prayer, and have to remember how lucky I am to have a husband who adores Isabelle and I. Who works so I don't have to, so I can be the homemaker. It's the Army life...I miss our other duty station in the sense that I don't have my other Army wife. I was lucky enough to have a few mommy friends and 1 girlfriend that Izzy n I did everything with. Our girls stayed busy; we were able to laugh and just vent about life...shop, work out. I have a few girl friends here which I thank God for. However, I find myself at the gym alone,no work out buddy :(. Scrolling through my address book almost every day knowing that I will see the same numbers and HOPING that at least one of the mommy's will be free to hang out. Grrrrrrrrrrr, okay, okay...think of the positive. We are all healthy, things are always changing for the better, and God is here for me (us) whenever you need him!

Back to today's topic, our fun fall week.
Isabelle helped with baking some peanut butter banana bread, potato pancakes, cake, and 'ca ca' coloring our fall/Halloween cards to her girlfriends!
Isabelle is doing better and better everyday with not crawling out of her day bed at 5 am! Yesterday she slept in her bed till 6 before crawling in by mama, and 7ish this a.m. Thank you Lord...I wonder how #2 will be?
