The weeks have just been flying by! It's hard to believe that Kelly will be moving in less than 2 weeks. I try not to think about it, but it is very hard to do. This past week we had his surprise going away party and it was wonderful! Our neighbors and friends here have been so good to us, we just can't express it. I over heard more than one person telling Kelly that his family would be well cared for when he was gone. It was really sweet. I don't know what we will do without him. I know that Jenna and I can survive without him, I just wish we didn't have to. The good news is that we met someone who lives/works in Norfolk and comes back here to work at least twice a month. We are hoping that Kelly can share rides with him once in awhile. It would really make the move more tolerable for all of us.
As for the Bean, she is doing great! She has another tooth that just popped through yesterday. It is one of her front teeth and you can see the other one won't be far behind. I can't imagine how much she will be able to eat when she has 4 teeth! She is also crawling all over the place and even pulling herself up to stand a lot. Kelly and I have seriously looked at child proofing the house, but I don't think I will get too far with it until our company has come and gone.
The garden is coming along well. I have picked lots of bounty from it (zucchini, squash, tomatoes, green beans, green peppers, onions) and have given away lots. Although we love to eat it, I just haven't had time to do anything with it lately.
Okay off to check on my husband down by the lake. We are trying to get all his projects done by the time family arrives July 3rd. He will do it, I just know it. And if he doesn't, the projects will just have to wait. Duty calls and he will ship out on the 8th of July while our company is still here. At least Jenna and I won't have an empty house when he goes. Of course, our first rendezvous is planned for July 24th, so it won't be too bad this first time. Can't wait until he can retire! I guess we should start counting those days next.
Traci, Jenna is so precious! Can't wait to see you guys. Hope you are hanging in there with Kelly gone. xxoo Jen
