Hey ladies! I hope that all of you are doing well and enjoying your little ones. I know that some of us have had our struggles at times but I know that we are all strong enough to work through it and come out the better for it.
My DH and I still haven't been able to get all of the details worked out to move me out to Georgia to be with him and due to the Army's "unofficial policy" of hurry-up-and-wait it may still be a while if at all. That definitely sucks since his training will not be finished until January or February, but at least we got to see him graduate from Basic Training. I'm attacking a copy of our first family picture to the bottom of the message. It was a wonderful weekend, and very emotional for us both, but I'm glad we were able to go. And to think, if my little Jocelyn hadn't come a month early it wouldn't have been possible!
DH and I were talking the other night about when we want to start trying for baby #2. If you'd asked me when Joss was only a month old, I'd have told you there was no way I'd want to try until she was about a year old, but when DH said he wants to start trying again by next February (when Joss is about 5 mos.) I was actually ok with it. I think the fact that she and I are starting to function on a schedule has a lot to do with feeling that way. I may be crazy but I'm actually looking forward to having another kid in the near future. Part of me is a little scared though since I developed severe pre-e at 36 weeks. I still have BP issues and am on meds to help, but I'm a little afraid that I could develop the same problems again. Everything worked out beautifully this time around in spite of that though, so I know that even if it does happen again the baby and I could still come out just fine. I'm glad that DH and I are talking about it now so I can start praying about those concerns now and rely on God to take care of everything when the time comes.
Wow, this post was a lot longer than I expected it to be. Maybe next time I won't go so long in between posts, lol.
I hope all of you ladies are doing well. God bless you and your little ones!!

What a wonderful picture!! Jocelyn is such a beautiful name! She was born the same day as my little Charlie (who was also 4 weeks early)! I'm glad things are going well! That is exciting to be planning your next already!! My girls are 23 months apart, so it will be a few years before I'm ready to think about another. Good luck and keep us posted on how things go!
