New Addition

This month has been so busy for Ryan and I. Ryan was gone for about 3 weeks doing some Army stuff. He got home last week and boy has it been nice to have him home again. I think we sometimes forget the simplest things about each other and how much we love them.

For Ryan, He loves my cooking and was given some pretty gross foods while being out. I think he now appreciates it even more not to open up an MRE and call that dinner. For me, I forgot how much I hate silence. I have always been a people person (get that after my Daddy). But now, I remember how much I love when he comes home at lunch and we get to talk about the day so far. I missed that so much while he was gone.

I think I talked to Sasha so much that she may have learned a new word or two. You can tell her "Daddy is not here yet" and she will walk away from the front door looking all sad and depressed. But now, I get to tell her "Daddy is on his way" and she sits by the front door until he comes home. Sasha now has a little brother!!

Mac Brown is our newest addition. He is named after "Mac" on The Unit. He is a Boxador... Boxer and Lab hybrid. He is 8 weeks old and was rescued from Fayetteville Animal Shelter. Ryan and I are huge animal lovers. I was recently told by my husband "You just love anything with a snout" :-) And boy is that true!! My dream is to have a farm or at least quite a bit of land. There I want to rescue dogs and cats. I want to be able to have multiple 4 legged babies!

Speaking of babies, Baby Brown is doing great! He or She is getting big and we are so excited to find out the gender. Life is staying busy as usual with the Army Life. We are doing great though. Its so amazing to think that this time last year, Mother's Day approached and I had no babies. This year, I have 1 baby in heaven and 1 in my belly! :-) I truly am so thankful this Mother's Day.
