It's been over two years since I posted anything of significance, seeing those pictures of Owen make me feel unbelievably sad. How did I not write about what was going on? Life got crazy. Here's the last year and a half recapped.
September 2012-December 2012- Mike deployed, sometime, I'll write about that not now.
January 2013- News that Mike was going to be deployed again for 4-6 months. (in military terms that means 6-8) Through lots of conversations we decided that it would be best for the kids and I to move in with my parents while Mike was gone. We rented out the house, moved all of our stuff to a storage unit and headed to Indiana.
April 2013-January 2014- We lived with my parents
That brings us to now-
We've lived in the lovely State of Florida for almost a month now. This has been the easiest adjustment for me so far, for many reasons I think. Living with my parents was good for us for many many reasons, I was/am beyond grateful that they let us stay with them. However, I was ready to have my own space and to have my family back under one roof! I'm so grateful to have escaped the terrible winter that Indiana has been having this year, we are all loving the sunshine and spring temperatures.
Lillian
She's now 4.5. A spitfire of little girl with an equal love for wrestling with daddy and pretty princess dresses alike. She has a servants spirit, always asking to help. She also is very independent, rarely wanting help with anything. She loves to get herself dressed and has an obsession with tights. As long as what she has on is weather appropriate I don't say much to her. I can't wait to see her little sense of fashion come out as she grows.
Owen
He is now 2 (34 months) to be exact. He is my sweet little man, my little cuddler. However, he has the boy genes through and through. He's already given up on the plastic play tools and only wants the real stuff. Hammering nails and playing with the real drill are ALL that boy can talk about. Of course the digger trucks come out from time to time in the back yard sand hole he and Lil have dug together.
