R&R

We are now 7 months into our family's 4th tour to Iraq, and Eddie is on R&R. We are totally loving Eddie being home right now and dread him going back. However, we know that he has to in order for him to come home for good! I say that with a smile =) However, I will have to say that I have gotten a little to use to the constant help, so I will have some adjusting to do once he is gone again.... but I will manage. He is Kohen's hero... and Kohen is contantly reminding me how much cooler Daddy is than Mommy. For instance, one morning as I was getting him in the car to go to the baby sitter's, he asked me where we were going. I responded... "I am going to work and you are going to play with your friends at Bennie Mae's". He quickly corrected me and said, "No, Mommy... I go to work too... I go with Daddy and I take my boom". For those you you who don't know what a boom is, it is a GUN. Apparently shooting guns all day is way more fun than balancing the books! And then there is Landin Claire... she is on the verge of crawling... and can't stop saying her daddy's name. I have tried to teach her Ma-Ma, but she always spits out some jibbery form of Da-Da and smiles at me from ear to ear. Both of my sweet babies are head over heals for my husband and I have to admit... so am I!
