Another 2 weeks

Another 2 weeks has gone by. There have been blog worthy times , but by the time we get home it has passed my mind.

Bubba started swim classes this week here at the Monterey Sports Complex. He is having a great time , crying everytime class is over and they get out of the pool :( . I have only taken one photo with the camera , which came out pretty bad since I was so far away. Then Mark waved me over and I took pictures with my phone , which I dont know how to get the pictures from the phone to my computer. I will sneak up next week and take photos with the camera. On Monday I had met up with a playgroup from church. Which in my mind was terrible, only because it was a big kid park and Mark wanted to play on the play structure , which was far to dangerous , which I kept hitting my big ole belly on things and wiping kids out. Just pulling up to the park I was saying to myself this is not going to be good. Had a mini breakdown on the way home , just cant stand not being able to take Mark out and do things . All was well when that night he had his first lesson. Mark goes into the pool with him , and wow was he happy. I was sitting in the stands with tears in my eyes the whole time . Pathetic? I dont know. When you spend the whole day feeling as though you are a bad mom for not being able to physically do something for your child and you see his frustration of not being able to play , then to see and hear him screaming out it in joy... well it was a great thing.

Im just sitting here thinking to myself " What the heck happened last week?!?" . Its frustrating to sit here and not be able to think of a thing! Maybe when I remember and can pick Marks brain I shall post it .... I think Mark hit a milestone of some sort.... I should write these things down , but then I think I will remember!

Yesterday Mark was promoted to Lieutenant! He doesnt make a big deal about it , but maybe he should have? We did celebrate by going to our favorite restaurant here in Monterey, Islands! Yeah , its a chain but its the best of anything we have come across here.

The ceremony was quick . Mark just had to sign official paperwork then they took us outside and the Captain of the school swore Mark in to another 3 years of Navy life ! YaY! Then I got to "pin" him . Didnt actualy get to pin because he wore his whites , but I changed his shoulder boards out.

Marks buddies from class made it and of course the little one and I were there. Mark actually had to carry Bubba while being sworn in because he didnt want to be put down and was screaming bloody murder.

Im very proud of Mark though. I know he doesnt look at this as such a big deal , but Im proud of what he does and how he does it.

Mark has a 10k this weekend that we are looking forward to going to. Well I am excited for Mark , but Bubba might be a handful to chase around.... because I have no clue where this race is located. Wish Mark luck , I think he is hoping to place in his age group in this race. Then Im not sure if he said he wasnt "racing" he was just going to "run". Yeah right. Once he gets out there and there are other people running I know he will race , even though he has been to busy to train the past 2 weeks.

Also tomorrow is my 34 week checkup. I not looking forward to it . Only because right before I started this blog entry I got settled into bed thinking that I would get to sleep in and I had nothing to worry about doing tomorrow... then I was rereading last blog entry and realized that I had an appt tomorrow. I will update tomorrow along with a pregnant shot of the tummy.
