Wow!!!

Well, today was a good day.  LJ was up a lot of the night and up for good early in the morning, so we started tired.  He, however, was great!!!  He woke up with a dry diaper and the day continued that way.  A few accidents when he was tired or not paying attention, but he's really getting it.  He even went "poops!" for the first time today.  It may be too much info, but I seriously could have done a back flip I was so excited for him.  What a big boy!!!

Life is back to usual today...usual, but better than usual - baseball begins again, but Lance is home!  He's been gone a lot of the year, but he's home until July 27.  That's his longest homestand of the year, and we are so glad to have him home.  After this homestand, he goes on the road for like 17 out of 20 games, so I may go home.  We will miss him so much, but it will be six months since we have spent some time at home, (aside from my two days there in the spring when I got sick-yuck).  It's time we went back and checked on things, maybe even plant a few flowers!!  I can't imagine what it would be like to spend almost 20 nights in our bed, waking up to our kitchen and LJ's toys just outside in the garage.  Baltimore is awesome, but I am missing home a bit.  I think that will give me my "fix".

So, that's us.  Lance is at the field but coming home tonight.  We are looking forward to Lance's parents' arrival tomorrow.  What a great month - to have Me-Maw, Nana and Pops all visit!!  LJ loves his grandparents -- they are so important!

Love you,

Jamie
