I know B-man is going to kill me for doing this! But, they're so funny, I had to do it. I've never seen B move so well! And just look at how much fun Boo is having. Thanks to B-mama for the idea. See post below.

We've Been Elf'd!

Thaaaaanksgiving!

We want to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving! Hope you all have a great day with friends and family. Boo wanted to send out a special turkey day shout out to his family back home.

It's hard to see, but he smiles so big everyday when we say hi to you all!

Wordless Wednesday

Tubby Time

Dig, Dig, Dig!

You might be asking yourself, "What is Carolina Girl saying that is so funny?". Well, when we took swimming lessons, the code word for what you do with your arms was "dig". So, when Boo started "digging" his arms in the bath last night, I would say...dig, dig, dig. And for whatever reason, he thought it was hilarious!!!

I was glad to end the day on a happy note because he's been so whiny and needy lately. Wanting to be held or wanting to climb on me ALL THE TIME! I can hardly put him down. I've been looking into it online and I'm reading that it is just a phase of separation anxiety. Boy, do I hope so. It wears me out! But, when we have moments like the ones featured above, I quickly forget about the bad ones.

Any advice on the separation anxiety issue or similar stories to tell? It always makes me feel better to know I'm not the only one...

Welcome Home Uncle A!

Alternately Titled: To Kansas and back in a jiggity jig!

Uncle A returned home from his year long tour in Iraq Monday morning!! Yay!
B-man, Boo, and I drove up to Kansas to welcome him. Unfortunately, his Welcome Home Ceremony was at 2 AM, so Boo and I stayed at the hotel while B-man picked him up at Ft Riley.

Our visit was short and sweet. We drove up on Monday and home on Tuesday. Uncle A had to be at work at 8 AM to start out processing and B-man had class Tuesday night.

We were so glad to be there to welcome him home. We're so proud of you Uncle A for all you've done this past year and we're so happy that you're back safe and sound.

Here are a few pics and videos of the ceremony.

Uncle A!

Back at the hotel later that morning.

I made this shirt for Boo to wear!


Welcome Home!

Job well done!
