My Future's So Bright...

Let's start off with an EXTREMELY belated (well, only 15 days!) birthday greeting to my brother, a.k.a. Uncle Z. I dressed Isaac in his "I Love My Uncle Z" onezie on my brother's birthday. Isaac does look a little unhappy, but he is preparing to eat. If you've ever seen Isaac around mealtime, you know how anxious and excited he gets once he figures out it's time to eat. It looks like Isaac is reaching out to the camera to give Uncle Z a hug...how sweet! These are some really cute pictures Lynn took while keeping the babies one day. She bought all three boys a pair of sunglasses designed for infants. They look so cute! As you can tell, Isaac seemed to enjoy wearing them, even if his friends didn't. Kudos to Lynn for managing to have three babies at least partially wearing sunglasses simultaneously!

What a sweet smile!


Poor child! He didn't even mind when his Mommy didn't get his glasses on all the way.
It is almost time for school to be out. Justin's parents came to visit this past weekend and have taken Isaac back to Mississippi with them. They've done this to help free my schedule these last few busy weeks of school...and I'm sure it's also so they can enjoy time with their grandbaby! Both sets of parents (mine and Justin's) have been extremely helpful in so many ways during the deployment.
Speaking of deployment, I realized something really neat just the other day. I was feeling kind of bummed about Justin not being here to celebrate our fifth anniversary. I got my planner out of my purse so I could update it. While doing so, I realized that I get to erase the "2" in the hundreds place of Isaac's countdown chalkboard and change it to a "1" on our anniversary! Coming to this milestone will definitely help when it comes to spending the rather significant milestone without Justin. Having friends over for supper will also help this Friday. I'm so glad Friday has seemed to work better for everyone than our initially scheduled day!
I'm uploading Justin's April pictures to Picasa Web Albums. Apparently, most of them in the "March_April Iraq" album were from March. Some of the ones in the new album I'll create are going to be duplicates, but there are also some new ones.

I got some Isaac sugar at church last night. It was good stuff!! I can't believe how much he has grown. He is as big as you, Em.

When are you coming over here? We are ready to see you.

Happy Anniversary!! Five years...wow!

Have a great day,
Love, Samie
