Hello there, my have you changed.

It has been quite a while since I have written here. A lot has happened in our lives since A was born.  She is now almost 7 months old and the absolute joy and love of our lives! She is trying to crawl, and quite funny in her attempt to do so. She is changing every day and we cannot wait to see the little lady she is growing up to be!

The biggest change in our lives has been our place of residency.  R is out of the Navy, early administrative discharge- details not necessary- honorable.  We had a 10 day-ish notice and within a few weeks of the notice we were moved back here in PA.  His family came down to help us move up and we are currently living with my parents.  R has a summer job that he officially starts Monday until he starts school in the fall. He wanted to go for computer networking sort of things that he had done in the Navy, but now is looking at more options before he decides for sure.  ( and I'm sure he may change his mind again once he makes a decision!)  He is using the GI Bill which means that he'll start this fall and go to college for three years straight- all through summer- to graduate with his Bachelors.  And the GI Bill ( for those who don't know) will pay for all his schooling fee's ect.  all while giving us the BAH ( basic allowance for housing ) that we received for E5 while he was in the Navy.   We ultimately want to buy a home in this 2-3 hour radius of or family but still have a while before we can do that.  Our families are graciously letting us live back and fourth between their places- I think they don't mind because they get to spend as much time with A as they want.  Things are hard and rocky. Money is not there, but we are so blessed to have such wonderful families who love us and want to help us as much as possible. I don't know how we could be making it right now without either of them.  Thank you all who have helped us thus far!
