A Little Update

+Last Wednesday was my birthday and to say it was a great one is an understatement. The only thing better about my day would have been for Ryan to be home. I was seriously so spoiled. Ryan gave me my gifts before he left and my parents sent them to me! They're so amazing!
My friend bought me these flowers and helped Dominick make this for me. :)
If I have to work on my birthday I'd rather it be with glitter, fun colored streamers and a birthday banner!
+Ry was TDY for 2 weeks for 7 level school. Dominick and I really missed him; for the most part though it went relatively well while he was gone. The only "major" issues that happened were an hour after we dropped him off our furnace went out. Thankfully it was just the ignitor and wasn't too hard for maintenance to fix (one of the benefits of living on base). The second was the day before he was supposed to come home Dominick's leg got stuck in his crib. I couldn't turn him, pull it out or anything. It was STUCK. I tried butter, but obviously it didn't work so I ended up having to call a friend who sent her husband over. The crib ended up breaking, but we got him out.
yup...that's butter. He was STUCK.

+When Dominick saw his daddy again he was in somewhat disbelief. He was FULL of hugs and kisses and was so happy to see him. So sweet.
+Dominick was such a big helper why Ryan was away. One of his favorite things to help with is laundry. He puts the clothes in the dryer and is so serious about it. He loves it.

+We've been planning on going home for the fourth of July since last July, but when we were looking at ticket prices and all that we were a bit hesitant and decided to just hold off. Well, then our friends told us they would be going to Alaska and said we should come. At first we said no, but then we sat on it and said YES! We booked our flights and made hotel arrangements last weekend and cannot wait to spend a little over a week in Anchorage.

+While most people HATE daylight savings time (especially those with kids), we are actually loving it. It honestly didn't affect Dominick all that much and we get more daylight to spend evenings at the park!

Have a wonderful weekend, friends!

I find that daylight savings is harder to deal with in the mornings, but much better in the evenings! My schedule is still out of wack though. Happy belated birthday! Mine was Wednesday:)
