October 18, 2009...
I had this intricate sign I was going to make...then I realized I just couldn't pull it off with all the last minute stresses that came with D's return (mostly the stress of the "unknown" since we had to relearn life together, now with a baby!) So anyway, I decided to let Boo and Luna help make the sign. This means that there are tons of smudges and paw prints all over the sign. ;-) I had this image of Boo racing across the sign with perfect paw prints but since I'd spent an hour telling him to keep off of the sheet, should I have been surprised that once I gave him permission he was confused?? Regardless, the sign served its purpose and I think everyone knew that at this house, a Daddy was coming home!!
October 2008 at a wive's meeting when we were discussing squadron gifts for new moms, I made this comment that it would be cute to have little flight suits for the babies. I added that if I could find a flight suit I'd bring my child home from the hospital in it...little did I know that a couple weeks later I'd be pregnant. I did not bring my son home in a flight suit but I decided it would be more fitting for him to wear one when his Daddy came home. ;-) A great neighbor of mine even had a real name tape made just for T!
Our sign. Yes, I bought $75 worth of beer, and yes, I did go buy $10 worth of tacos THAT morning for my husband...at 8 a.m. ;-) But who could think of Beer or tacos when all we cared about was this moment...
SO happy! I think D had gotten T to smile here and that's why I was especially happy...giddy really if you couldn't tell.
Our new little family!
