I see the light at the end of the tunnel!!

WHEW this deployment is almost over and I am so relieved!! I must say though, it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Yes, spending almost all the holidays apart my other half was hard but we look forward to catching up when he gets back :) Speaking of holidays, today is probably my favorite one ;) My love is 24 years old today!!! Happy birthday Tony. SO thankful for this day. without you, my life wouldn't be complete. We are so lucky to have you in our lives!!

The next month is going to be crazy busy and I'm ready! Tony gets home soon, our cruise is SOON and hopefully visiting friends in Austin will be VERY SOON! So much to look forward to and I can't wait for the family time. With my cruise coming up in less than a month, I have been trying to get into shape. AHH. Working out is definitely not my favorite thing. As you all know, I  had Julian a while ago and this baby flab on my tummy just isn't going away. I don't know if a bikini will be in my future any time soon and this is so hard for me. I know I sound so pathetic but I miss my pre baby body!! I did Active 2 yesterday and OH.MY.GOSH. it hurts to wash my hair in the shower! Beauty is pain I guess right??

We've been in Abilene for about a week and a half now and things are going pretty smooth. It's been nice to catch up with my friends and for Julian to be around other kids his age! Since being back home, my baby fever is getting ridiculous. Three of my friends, yes THREE just had babies within the last 2 months and I'm going crazy seeing all of their little faces and cuddling with them. It makes you realize that time goes by so quick and to not take anything for granted. Julian's 15 month check up was yesterday and it went well. Since Tony's been gone, Julian was fighting ear infections one after another and it was to the point where tubes were the next option. Yesterday, the doctor walks in and he actually thought Julian got tubes because we haven't seen him in awhile. LOL it was actually only 2 months since we've been in, which is normal but he was so used to seeing us like every week! anyway, Julian is gaining weight very well which is a huge relief. He jumped from the 10 percentile to the 25 percentile! Weighs 22 lbs 11 oz and is 32 inches tall which is 75 percentile! We are so happy to hear that he is right on track and no ear infections this time around!!

Hoping the next couple of weeks go by quick! To all my friends that just said goodbye to their loved ones, You will be in my prayers and time will go by fast. Just know, I am always here! Friends are support. Love you guys!
