Billy left yesterday morning to do his land navigation. So, right now he is out in the wilderness, trying to find his points. I can't talk to him until he gets back tomorrow, but I bet today was pretty rough. The high here was around 94 degrees. I took the trash out earlier and got the mail and by the time I got back to the apartment, I was sweating. And they have to wear their uniforms (there is a name for them, but suprise, I forgot)...hot, hot, hot. This no communication thing really stinks. He will be home tomorrow :) But...he will then leave again on Monday for 3 months :( And we can't talk during that time either. That is the hardest part for me. I obviously hate when he is gone, but I can deal with it when I get to talk to him. He is my best friend and I am really going to miss him. Halen is going to miss his daddy too.
On a positive note, we got a new camcorder! I am super excited about it! We got it so that I can record all of the new things Halen learns while Billy is gone. He won't miss a thing. I already have some really cute ones to show him when he gets home tomorrow. I am going to experiment and see if I can upload a video onto here. Wish me luck!
Halen is thisclose to crawling. He wants to SO bad. He rocks and rocks and usually yells while he is doing it. I think he is telling me he is frustrated when he does this :) Since he can't quite crawl yet, he has two new methods. For the first one, he scoots both of his knees forward at the same time. He doesn't cover a lot of ground with this manuver. He also gets into the crawling position and then gets on his toes, sticks his butt way up and then belly flops forward. LOL He covers more ground doing this, but it can't feel good on his little belly. Billy is really really hoping that he crawls before he leaves on Monday. I hope so too.
25 days until Halen and I are back in Iowa! I can't believe Christopher's wedding is almost here. I am so excited for him and Abby. They are so good together :) It is going to be a gorgeous wedding. Can not wait!! Miss you brother! And I miss my sister and other brother too :)
Joe (Billy's brother) came to visit this weekend. We had so much fun with him. The timing worked out great, he was able to spend a lot of time with Billy. He got here on Friday and left this morning. We went putt-putt golfing, (I didn't get last...that award goes to Mary haha), played tons of games, ate out a lot, watched quite a few basketball games, and even went to the beach yesterday. We were very glad that he was able to come all the way across the country to visit us :) Oh, and he is so good with Halen. Halen is lucky to have such a wonderful uncle :) We miss you already Joe!!
Counting down the hours until my hubby gets home! I love you William!
