Over 200 days to go

Declan and I got up this morning to take Chris to the ship for his seven month deployment. I was not happy that we had so short of time to say good-bye, but sometimes quick good-byes are good, other times I think I would have cherished another 45 seconds!

Declan has proven to be a little bit of a handful today. Seems to be fussy most of the time, but I think that we will manage. I have him in the bouncer now and he seems to be doing a little better. The little guy doesn't want to be on his tummy at all, I am afraid that he is going to skip crawling and go right into walking! Maybe I will try more and more tummy time.

Poor little Declan won't realize Daddy is gone right now. Well, maybe when he realized that he has to wait another few moments before Mommy wakes up at night. Chris was awesome with those late night feedings and diaper changes. Now it's all me!

I am going to try to keep up with this...and chronicle Declan's adventures at least every other day. I am sure just the two of us will be fine.

  1. It must be hell on Chris. Noone on the planet is more full of love than he is. We're here if you need us! -- Kyle
