All Played Out!


Sorrry I haven't posted in a few days. We have been pretty busy this week. Wednesday, I had to go to the hospital for some tests. Hopefully we will know something soon. While I was resting after getting home from the hospital, John was feeding Hydie and what do you know...she started holding her bottle by herself!!! She is growing up so fast! Thursday, Hydie and I went over to our friend Jana's house and worked on another sling for our trip to Mississippi. Hydie has really started to enjoy her jumparoo and activity center. She even enjoys sleeping in them as you can tell. I can't wait till her 4 month doctor visit to see how much she has grown. It seems like she has really grown soooo much this week alone. Today we took a drive to see what was past base since we never go any further than base. We saw some awesome scenery!!! I didn't know that Kodiak Island was this BIG! On our drive we saw some horses and cows. The horses look very much like Mississippi horses do, but the cow were another story. I tried to take pictures but something was wrong with the memory card in my camera. The cows had extremely thick, long coats. They were the weirdest things I have ever seen. Can I add that none of these animals were fenced in....they were just roaming on the side of the road. I am so not used to that! I am now trying to get some packing done since Hydie and I leave Monday for Mississippi.

Aww... well by now you have made it to Mississippi! Welcome Home... I hope that you and Hydie are really enjoying our weather (Yucky on Monday!!!)

I would love to see those weird cows... I bet there were a sight to see. Glad to know that you all are venturing outside of the base and we can really see what Alaska is like.

And what joy... Hydie is holding her bottle all by herself. She becoming is really growing up.. next thing you know.. it'll be sippy cup time! Hopefully Hydie decides to take it slow until that transition. Anywhoo... Enjoy these wonderful moments!!!

Anyway... I just thought about you all and thought I'd drop in an see what was going on with the Gallagher Family.

Have a great time here in MS and a safe trip back home to Alaska!

Until your next blog entry...
