Bailey and I dropped Patrick off last night and kissed him goodbye for 5 weeks. He has arrived in California today to begin training in preparation for his upcoming deployment. Patrick and I have been through this before but this is the first goodbye with Bailey in our lives so it made it much harder! I miss him already and just want him home with us! It's all part of the bittersweet military life. In many ways the Marine Corps has been a great lifestyle for us but being apart which is a huge part of a military family's life just plain sucks!
I have been sick since we got home from our trip to FL (about a week now) and now I am broken out in hives which just adds to the misery. I think my hives are stress induced so I have a feeling I will have hives a lot over the next year. Such a bummer. I don't know why my body decided this would be cool. The medicine I was given the first time this happened (while we were in FL) worked great and they disappeared but this time the same medicine isn't working. My poor body has been through a lot over the past year! Just ready to feel normal again!
On a happier note, Bailey is growing so fast, sometimes I feel like I can see her getting taller! She is outgrowing clothes like it's cool. She has been eating bites off our plates for a while now but while we were in Fl she started eating whole plates of her own! She LOVES baked potatoes! She can eat a whole potato by herself! Such a big girl now. She also loves Mac 'n' cheese, and bread. She eats a lot more but those are her faves. She started pulling up to her feet last night! She is walking holding our hands and can stand for a few seconds alone. It won't be long before she's off on her own!
