Thought I should write an update. . .


Okay well since I last wrote we have celebrated Thanksgiving and Kadence and I have been in Oregon for month! We went to my inlaws for Thanksgiving dinner. Kae met her great-great grandparents and hung out with some of the younger memebers of the family. She had a ball. It was great to meet new family and enjoy that time with them. It helped being around Josh's family with him being gone.
Speaking of Joshua, he is settled in his new area. They are not liking it as well but I think they are just trying to get through this deployment. He gets to call every once in a while and it is so good to hear his voice. His birthday is tomorrow and I am hoping that he can call so we can sing to him. :)
Kadence has a whole top row of teeth coming. Her two front ones have now broken through. She is a little irritable but I think she is doing great. Since we have been here she has gotten taller and is now into even more things. And she does love to explore and check things out. She says a few more words and her versions of them. Recently she began calling me Jess instead of mom. Hoping that changes back soon. I am having to teach her to play with Jayce nicer because she is used to patting him and it is turned into more of a hit lately. Thank heavens he is so good with her! They are so fun to watch.
I am busy getting boxes of to Josh and Sean. It's crazy having two of them out of the country this year! And I am trying to get everything else done. We have been going on regular walks, well we were until I got a cold. Hopefully we will get outside soon. I am hoping for the New Year to come soon because I just feel like that will be another corner rounded in this deployment. We celebrated the half way point about a week and a half ago. So that was nice. It's the little things we look forward to. I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving and I hope that this Christmas season brings joy to you and your families.
