Back into the Swing of Things. . .

Well, Ella and I have adjusted well to life on our own and try to keep ourselves as busy as possible--which is not hard to do with her around! She is a super-fast crawler (I haven't lost her, yet) and keeps me on my toes. She is pulling herself up onto everything, but hasn't mastered the balance required to stand alone yet. She loves to clap at all of the new things she can do and to any song that she might hear from a toy or on the TV. I am keeping busy with scrapbooking and cleaning up after Ella and the other wives from the Med Group love to watch Ella and give mom a break!!

Brian is doing well, just completely exhausted--apparently it is not easy to get a good night's sleep with jets taking off overhead. He also tries to keep himself as busy as possible to make the days go by as quickly as possible. He has even had a chance to volunteer on the Hero's Highway--where they bring in the wounded soldiers on the helicopters. It has been really nice to get to talk to him everyday since he has arrived in Iraq. It almost makes it seem like he isn't really there!

Hero's Highway


We hope all is well with you and we hope to see each of you very soon!
Brian, Anne & Ella
