Deployment days 30 & 31

Yesterday (day 30) we went to the aquarium with Ashlee, Kayla and all the kids. It was a lot of fun! It was pretty far away but we had a good time. When we got home it was late afternoon and we needed to get the kids out of the car for a while! Patrick called and we got to talk on the phone with a good connection for 40 minutes! That's the most we've talked since he left!! It was nice to just talk about things and not get cut off a million times! Kayla, Candace and I piled all the kids in one car and went to tan and grab dinner. That was a lot lol we won't be doing that anymore! We will be taking turns staying home with the kids to go tanning from now on! By the time we got home it was bedtime. We've had a lot of late nights lately (like 9) and always get in just in time for Bailey bug to get a bath and get in bed. I kind of like being busy at the end of the day but part of me feels bad too that we don't get to just spend that time home but she is a social butterfly like her mama so she likes to be out and about with friends or have people here! She loves to play with friends! She will probably enjoy a sibling one day!

Day 30 photo- Bailey with two rattle bracelets on her wrist, she loves wearing them now! Aquarium pics, First car ride with all of us since Declan arrived, Chick-fil-A dinner in the car :)


~This morning Bailey and I went over to Candace's so I could feed Declan while Candace got some cleaning done then we came home and I cleaned in the garage while Bailey napped. I got rid of a lot of stuff and was able to pull the car in! I did some cleaning inside too then ran a few errands. We went in Kirklands and bought a big mirror for only $14.00!! They were having big sales and doing military discounts all weekend for Memorial Day! How exciting!! :) It was originally 40 or 50 something then marked down and discounted! We got back and I made a fruit pizza to take over to Candace's for dessert. Her in laws came in today and they had a cookout. We were over there until after 8:30 then came home and got Bailey a bath and in bed. She hasn't made a peep. She played hard all evening! I got to chat with Patrick a little today also :) Now I'm watching some SOA and getting ready to go to sleep!
