Taking leave;

In the navy one of the hurdles that may come up is taking leave. We have hit that hurdle pretty hard.

After B was born we decided we'd take leave so everyone back home in FL could see him. August was to busy of a month so we didn't get the chance. Now with deployment soon approaching, we have hit inserve and 3 section duty. This means, Chance has duty every three days and they refuse to let him take leave. We got over that and decided we'd go home for Halloween since I am so in love with the holiday. I had told my family and bestie (who took days off to see us). This morning Chance calls to break the news to me that the PRT would be the week around Halloween and we'd be changing our leave to earlier. Well that was a bit upsetting. I really wanted to be home for the holiday. On the plus side, the family will be seeing B sooner then thought and I'm ok with that.

This comes to show you rule #1 in the Navy: Expect the unexpected. Things will change!!!

Now mentioning little B, he is almost two months old! He has grown so big so fast! He gave me his fist smile and giggle!!! He's a ton more alert and active and loves car rides and music. He is fussy at times but we're dealing with that. He sleeps 5-6 hours straight through the night and sometimes a little longer! He is such a blessing!!!
