I'm starting to think that maybe Allison was right...I should do this scrap booking thing for a living. Tomorrow I'm spending the day making another scrapbook as a gift....oh fun fun. But I'm getting a day of shopping without the kids on Friday for helping so I think its all worth it.

It's just now starting to really hit me that it won't be long will James is here. I've already gotten Madison an adorable skirt that she is going to wear when we pick up Daddy. (I think she will wear it for 4th of July as well considering how much I paid for it) Looking back now the past 6 months have gone pretty fast. Now if only the last part of this deployment will go as quick. I'm so looking forward to getting some good quality time alone with James when he gets back. We didn't exactly get that before he left....thanks to my wonderful gallbladder problems. The week before he left we went away for a getaway alone. One day into it I ended up in the hospital all night. Came back home and got sent to OSU for another procedure to remove a loose stone that got out before they took my gallbladder out. So thats where we spent our last few days together. In the hospital...at least it was kid free time LOL. I got out of the hospital, the next day we drove to TN and James left that next day. So needless to say it wasn't much fun. Which is making this homecoming even more exciting. I know everyone is anxious to know when he gets here...and I will make sure you all know once he is...and I'll make sure you know if we are in Ohio or Tennessee (thats for you Aunt Kathy!! :)
