Josh is home on R&R
Josh is home on R&R now. He FINALLY got to meet his daughter for the first time! He and Amy seem to be getting along great. Amy has great timing - the week before he got home, she started saying, "Dadadadadadadadadada." Not that she knows what it means yet, but at least she can make the sound. Here are some photos of Amy & Josh from this week:
Amy enjoys chewing on Josh's glasses:

Josh was tired when he got home from Iraq, so one of the first things on the agenda was a nap. Amy likes naps too:
Josh gave Amy a bottle:
Amy likes to play airplane:
Dad's lap is a nifty place to sit:
Later in the week, we went for a walk around Lake Harriet:

On his way!
Josh is on his way home for 2 weeks of R&R (leave)! He called from Kuwait to tell me that he should get here by early next week. I can't wait for him to meet his daughter, Amy! I haven't seen him since January.
He'll have to go back to Iraq before the end of the month, but at least the longest part of the deployment is over. There's never a guarantee with the Army, but we hope Josh will be home before Amy's first birthday - which is only about six months away. We'll see.
For now, we'll just enjoy our time together. I am so glad he is going to meet Amy - she is a total joy to be around. She is smiling and giggling now - I know her Dad's going to adore her.
