It's been awhile

     I didn't realize it had been so long since I posted. Not too much has changed, but the boys sure are getting big! Elijah has been talking a lot more and really trying to be a 'big boy.' He's potty trained, except all the way at night, he likes to dress himself, and doesn't like too much help from Mommy or Daddy. I can't believe he'll be three in just two short months! Noah is about 13 months old and is always on the go. He hasn't started walking yet, but he does pretty well with a walking toy. He doesn't talk much, just the usual Mama and Dada and babbling. They don't really play together yet. Elijah still isn't too fond of sharing his toys, and Noah is content playing by himself.
     Live in New Orleans isn't so bad now. We've been here over a year now and still have a little over 2 1/2 years left. It hasn't been too bad with Josh's family only being an hour away. Well they got their orders and just moved to Camp Lejeune in North Carolina. Now we are officially on our own down here. It's weird not being able to go to their house or have them over. It makes me sad when Elijah asks to see them and he doesn't understand that they aren't close by anymore. It will be easy to see everyone since both of our families will be in NC now. We probably won't be able to take another trip up there until next year, so Josh can save up his leave and we can take a good two weeks off. I would take the boys and go before then, but I'm not brave enough for the 13 hour drive without Josh lol. Hopefully our families will be able to visit us too. That trip is very tiring and hard to do more than a couple times a year. It's sad being away from family, but we've been adjusting pretty well and have made some great friends to help make it feel more like home.
