Watching Wednesday...

Fun with Hats!

Easter

I appologise for being remiss in posting new tidbits about our lives...it's been a crazy couple of weeks.  So I'll just dive right in.

The beginning of  April, B was promoted to the rank of Major.  We were so proud and in keeping with tradition he "pinned on" while TDY (away from home) but not to fear he still had a ceremony (and pictures) albeit about a month late.  The reason B was TDY was that he was at AIS (Advanced Instrument School) and was also a part of an (get ready for another acronym) RIE (basically a group of subject matter experts working to solve issues within the C-17 community).

While B was away, C began a music class.  It has been amazing to see him begin to mimic what I or the other parents in the group are doing as well as see him interact with other kiddos.  He is such a social butterfly.  He has also added a couple new words to his vocab, Mama (yay!) and ball.  C also has his own word for balloon and plane, which we understand but I think anyone else would think it was just a sound. :0)  We've also begun taking him to a story time at our local library he seems to really like it.

Pinning on Ceremony

 Later in April B's folks were able to come up for his pinning on ceremony and for a quick weekend getaway.  While they were here my MIL and I got up and watched the Royal Wedding...yes I am absolutely obsessed with it and I'm so glad I wasn't watching it alone!!  We ooed and awed over the hats, fascinators, Catherine's dress and at how handsome William was.  That pretty much catches you up as to what we've been up to.  Enjoy the pictures!!
