It's time.

On days like this... I want another baby so badly. I can't decide if I'm sleep deprived and delusional because I only had about 4 hours of sleep last night, or if my heart (and mind) really are ready again. At first, Matthew and I talked about wanting time alone with just Molly, but then I thought to myself... How fair is that going to be to our next child who gets NO time with just us. I think it's time. When Matthew gets home... it's time. I don't want to hear anything about waiting or timing or anything like that. This is our decision. Not anyone else's. If you have anything nice or helpful to say though, feel free. :)

Matthew took command yesterday of D Troop and the ceremony went well, from what he told me. There was a little blip at the end, but we'll just keep that between Matthew and myself. (And everyone who attended the ceremony.) I'm so proud of him. I can't wait until he's back home so that he can spend all of his extra time with Molly and me. I can't even wait for those 2 blissful weeks of R&R that he has coming to him. I want him to be able to hold Molly, and love her, and squeeze her... and change dirty diapers and wash them and stuff them and bathe her. LOL I just want our family back together again. It's time.

The dogs are all laying down right now. MJ is napping in her crib. I just finished eating and now I want to take a nap too. It's time.

Texas, my Texas...

Well, we've been in Texas for almost a month now. Molly has done so many new things since we've been here. She is reaching for things and actually getting to them, she is stuffing both fists in her mouth, she is grabbing onto things and pulling... she is just growing too quickly. She will be four months in 3 days. FOUR months. Wow. I can't believe it. Time is just flying by. I can't decide whether that is a good thing, or a bad thing. I mean, it is a good thing, because Matthew will be home in, what will feel like, no time. It is bad though because my tiny little baby is growing up.

On a new baby note... I am ready. I want to be pregnant again. I want to feel a baby in my belly again. I want to experience labor and delivery again. I am ready. Now all I need is my husband to come back home! I tried to convince him to send a *ehem* sample home a while back and he just laughed. I guess I'll just have to wait for R&R. Then MAYBE... :)

Speaking of Matthew, he's down south finally and happy to be there. Me? I'm not so thrilled about the idea of him flying. I'm also not so sure about the whole FRG thing. I know I'm supposed to be all excited about it, and ready to jump in, but I'm just not. Not because I don't think that I'll enjoy it, but because with Molly Jane and the dogs already I have little time for myself. We'll see how things go.

Okay, that'll be it for now. I'll post again when we're back home! :)
