My how little children grow

Sorry it has been a while since I have posted anything so much is going on in our little home! Garrett is getting ready to leave for 11 days on a company hike through base. Yuck! I have been trying to get ahold of WIC. (I am just going to go in and yell at them for not calling me back over the past 2 weeks) Addi is growing like a weed!

Our morning routine consists of Addi crying at about 8 a.m. for me. I generally go in pick her up and place her in bed with me for cuddles and a little more sleep! She doesn't last more then an hour, I wake to little feet kicking at my face or stomach. She rotates her little body to where her feet are pointed directly at me! Then she proceeds to kick until I wake up. Why? I ask myself the same question. I guess its just a game for her to enjoy with me!

Every time I look at my little angel she has grown! She now comfortably fits into her 3-6 month clothes and I do believe is ready for me to pack up any of her 0-3 month clothes left in the closet! She has began to eat baby food anywhere from 1-3 times a day, supplemented with her formula and some rice cereal!

It is so hard for me to look at her and realize she is almost 5 months old! Where has the time gone? It just flies on past me with the blink of an eye. Before I know it she will be a year old and missing her daddy while he is gone on his MEU! Which by the way is coming up pretty soon January is not that far from now! I don't know the exact wording for MEU so when I find out I will fill everyone in on that one. I just know that he gets on a boat with a whole bunch of Marines and they sail around staying within 100 miles of some type of land incase of a disaster or war breaking out. I made Garrett promise to bring back a ton of stuff from presents to sand in little baggies and disposable cameras. I want lots and lots of photos! I also would love it if he would bring me a shot glass for each place, I have a shot glass for every state I have been in why not broaden my horizons right!

Well that is all I have for you all this good evening! I hope everyone is doing well and I hope the best for my dear father-in-law on his journey to the "Sandbox". I also pray he comes home safely! Good Luck John! Be safe and come home in one piece please, so Addi can do her own damage to you!
