One last weekend with Daddy






This past weekend, Mommy and I flew out to Seattle for a (short) weekend with Daddy before he left the states for good. You see, he has been out on the west coast for last month training to be ready when he goes over to Iraq. When he found out that he would have his last few days off, he bought mommy and I a plane ticket out west. Yehhhhhhhh! It was my 2nd airplane ride and mommy told me I did pretty darn good for taking a coast-to-coast trip. Anyway, when we got there my daddy barely put me down. I think I impressed him when I showed him that I could crawl and pull myself up to a standing position. Not too shabby, huh? We spent all day Saturday visiting Seattle by the water. We ate good food (well, actually mommy and daddy did), saw 2 small puppy dogs being pushed around in a stroller like me (that was pretty funny) and I even got to feel ice cream on my lips. Don't worry - I didn't eat any of it - but it sure did feel good on the lips! Oh wait...I almost forgot...I went on my first carousal ride. I loved the horsey that went up-and-down! So, when the weekend was all over, mommy and I had to say goodbye to daddy one last time. I know that we miss him very much already - but I know that it is hardest for daddy because he is away from all that is "normal". Mommy tells me that Daddy misses me the most and everything that I do each day. We love you Daddy!
