MMMM....Cereal





Well, Jolie is eating of a spoon now, sort of. That may not make since to everyone, but it is the truth. Half of the time she eats it and the other half of the time she spits it out. She has gotten the hang of swallowing it, so that is improvement. We made a batch of baby food today, so tomorrow we are going to try peas. That should be interesting. Jolie is also grabbing on to toys, burb-rags, and blankets now. She has rolled over once, I am starting to think that it was a fluck because she hasn't done it again, and that was over a week ago. She is growing like a weed, I am not sure how much she weighs but we will find out on the 9th of October, when we go to get her second set of shots.
Dean is doing good. He is still going on patrol missions and getting very little sleep. He just recently had 3 days off of work, which he used to catch up on his sleep. He was also given the opportunity to go into Bagdad. We miss him like crazy. He is such a good husband and he is always asking about his little girl.
I am doing fine. I have good days and I have bad days, just like everyone else has. I read in my spare time, what little time there is, and clean when the house needs it.
I hope everyone else is doing good.
Love,
Teresa and Jolie

14 Weeks






Hey everyone! Well Jolie is now 14 weeks old, or 3 and 1/2 months. She is getting so big and she is still as cute as ever. We are still working on rolling over and sitting up but I think we are going to be doing those things very soon. She had her first taste of rice cereal the other night, but she didnt get it last night because she was constipated. We now take a bath in just the blue plastic tub, (it used to have a support in it) and boy does she like to splash. I found a picture of my self the other day and I think I am about the same age as Jolie in it. We look alot more alike than what I thought.

Dean is doing fine. He has been going out on longer missions lately and gets very little sleep. I have been sending him video of Jolie and lots of pictures. We get to talk about every 3 to 4 days and are able to text message each other, all though we dont always get each others messages.

I am doing fine, just staying very busy with Jolie, sending packages to Deana and keeping the grass cut. Mowing the lawn actually gives me some time to think, which might not be a good thing. I really do way to much thinking these days.

I hope everyone else is doing good. We miss everyone.

Love,

Teresa and Jolie
