One month already?!

I cannot believe how fast time flies!  Addy is already a month old!  She is starting to come more into her own personality.  She smiled at me for the first time yesterday.  She sure knows how to grin from ear to ear.  She is starting to really follow things with her eyes.  I went to take Khloe out the other day and had Addy in the swing in the living room.  I came through the door and she followed me the whole length of the living room. 

I have been having problems with Addy staying awake while she is feeding.  So after talking to some of the nursing mom's at church I decided to let her sleep at night until she is ready to wake up.  She went SIX hours last night!  I was impressed.  I was so tired when I woke up for the next feeding though.  :)  I am not used to getting four hours of straight uninterrupted sleep, but that is DEFINITELY something I could get used to! :) 

Jake is doing his final audit for the marine corp today.  Hard to believe that next Thursday we are done with the military...  Well that is when his terminal leave begins.  We are hoping to make it home for Thanksgiving, but Jake wants to have a job lined up first.  Rightfully so, since our whole trip he would be worrying about having enough time once we got back to get a job.  He has been applying to everywhere he can think of.  There are also a lot of guys at church who are giving him ideas.  I have no doubt he will get a job, it's just a matter of when.  Gotta love just sitting back and having faith! :)  But that is what our relationship with Christ is all about.  He has it in his hands.  Well I'm going to go fix something for lunch and get a little more housework done!  I pray you all have a marvelous day!!

Love,
Anna and Addy :)  oh yeah... and Jake too ;)
