Moving..... Yay!

Well, it's finally here. The movers are coming tomorrow, and on Oct. 1 we will be in San Diego. This has been a very stressful process; our first official move within the military. I have no idea what to expect in the next couple days, I'm just hoping it goes smoothly. I'm not sure how I'm going to keep Bentley's schedule while I'm supervising the movers all day.

Bentley has his top front teeth now. They bothered him for over a week. He is still crawling everywhere and getting into everything. He says dada all the time. At first I told myself he was just making sounds, but now I really think he knows what he's saying.

I will update when we get our internet hooked up at our new place.

Have I Grown?

We retired Bentley's infant car seat before we went to San Diego. He seems much more comfortable in his "big boy" carseat, and it sits up higher so he can see out the back window. He didn't complain at all on the 3 hours there and back. It almost makes me sad looking at these two pictures. He's grown so much in 9 months.

It's Been Awhile

Wow, a lot has happened since I last posted. Since I got back from AR several weeks ago, we have mainly been trying to figure out what all we have to do to move. This is our first move within the military so we are learning as we go. We had our first pre-inspection on our house, and everything looked good so far. The movers are coming on the 26th, and Paul graduates on the 30th. We went to San Diego over Labor Day Weekend to look at some apartments and try to get familiar with some of the streets (or major highways I should say). I'm still looking for apartments that are close to the base that will let us have a cat. It's quite a challenge.

We did get to go to the beach while we were there. It was very busy because of the holiday, but we will be back. Bentley did not like it at all. He enjoyed watching the people, but he would not stand in the sand and the waves scared him. The weather was beautiful. We did not want to come back to 29 Palms.


Bentley had his 9 month checkup. He weighs 18 lbs. 14 oz. and is 28 in. long. He's starting to get the hang of feeding himself and he wants a bite of anything Paul or I eat. He is very fascinated with Chunky and he will follow him in a circle around our downstairs for hours. Chunky only minds when Bentley grabs his tail.

Here are a few pictures of Bentley from the last month. I am so thankful for digital cameras. In his almost 10 months of life I have over 1000 pictures of him.
