Sunday...

I'm really missing my husband, and I'm kindof down tonight. I think it's just been a long weekend, and I've been really busy. I knew that I would miss him, and I was prepared for doing all of the chores at home by myself. However, I underestimated how difficult it is to maintain a marriage from the other side of the world. We have always had a wonderfully loving relationship and always given each other gifts, phone calls, and cards often. So it's just hard, but important, to remember to maintain that while away, too.

Today, Barrett and I played then cleaned house for a while. He took a couple of naps - I cleaned and read. We went out and finished getting some prizes for daddy (which I will mail out tomorrow). He was really good today. He is becoming increasingly hilarious - everyone loves him. He said 'bye bye' today to someone at the store - first time for that one. It sounded like 'ga ga', but it was meant as a bye bye. He is growing and is still so sweet. He rarely lets me put him down. He and Henri both follow me around all day wanting to be picked up or taken outside. It's impossible to get anything done around here. Well, I am just finishing printing off some pictures for my honey, and then I am off to bed.

Oh, I figured out what I'm sending my love for his birthday. My sister helped me with it - and it is so 'Bill'. It is so funny and cute, and I can't wait until he gets it!! :) Good night!

PS -We still have the cutest baby EVER!
