May 10

So, I haven't slowed down enough I guess because my body has now decided to slow me down. I have not felt well since last night. Unfortunately, I had several plans today and tomorrow, which I had to cancel. I am bummed about missing my friend Michelle's head shaving party and I was supposed to host play group tomorrow. I have had a lot of rest today and just wanted to jot a couple quick notes and include the adorable pictures of our girls.

Luvy is rocking on all fours and getting around by rolling or moving her legs to push herself. She is into everything that is on the floor, so now Bootsie and I will have to be a little more careful about what we leave around. Both girls have been great today and taking it easy, Bootsie has been a good helper and very tender with mommy. My good friend Kristi went grocery shopping for me to get some necessities and took Bootsie to play with her son for several hours this evening.

I have been working on several projects: I have almost finished getting all my paper work back in files, I have planted my front bed with new flowers and I have started taking out the clothes the girls no longer fit. My dad would be proud of me for changing the oil on my lawn mower and changing out the blade for a thatching blade. Thankfully, in the neighborhood, there is a young man who I can call to take care of lawn needs and he cleaned up all the grass I had torn up with the thatcher yesterday since I didn't feel good enough to do it.

Peso is set to come home in a week and a half, so we are getting very excited! He is busy finishing up last minute OPR's(officer performance ratings) and awards papers for the guys in his flight. When he gets back he will be moving to the wing weapons, so he should have a more family friendly schedule, Lord willing!

That is all for now, I will be doing the race for the cure on Saturday if I feel better. I will be pushing the girls in the jogging stroller. It should be fun. I love and miss you all dear friends and family in Texas. -Ralee
