The second half of 2013 was clearly busy and crazy, and full of... stress!
At the beginning of September, I ventured back to my home state (by car) with my mother and 2 year old daughter.
 |
| All of this & more somehow fit my car plus 2 adults & 1 child in a carseat! |
September 12, my daughter had surgery on her eye to correct her lazy eye. It was no big deal, as far as surgeries go, but stressful nonetheless, as my husband was still deployed.
Then there was all the flooding in Colorado. Actually, that happened the same day as her surgery, and we were lucky to get out of the hospital before we were stranded!
On October 26, husband came home!! It was pretty nerve-wracking driving to the airport & waiting for him to come through the customs doors, but amazing to be back together again!!
 |
| First family picture in 6 months! |
We were able to walk around on Halloween together!
 |
| Somebody didn't want to take anymore pictures! |
Evelyn is no longer sleeping in a crib! Instead she plays, talks, changes clothes, and eventually goes to sleep.
 |
| Loving her new toddler bed! |
Gammy came to visit us in December!
 |
| Gammy & Evelyn at Breakfast with Santa - she was not a fan of Santa yet! |
And mommy & daddy took a trip to the fabulous Las Vegas!
 |
| We saw Elvis with an ipod in the parkinglot by this sign. Apparently, Elvis is an Apple man. |
And, of course: Christmas!
 |
| Christmas morning, 2013. |
And I will go into some of these events more closely in the coming weeks. As usual, we have more than enough on our plates in the next month or so, but I will do my best to keep everyone updated!
Happy 2014, everyone!
