It's been so nice being here with Jason and being a family. I can only imagine how hard it's going to be when we leave here. For both the boys and myself. Not to mention Jason.....
But the good news is that we have decided to extend our trip through August. We'll be leaving on Sunday the 23rd. Then it will only be a week and a half before Granny comes to visit and Jason comes home for Labor Day weekend.
I was concerned how Ethan would do without all of his therapies for a few weeks but it seems like he's making some big strides. He is now holding his own sippy cup and drinking from it. And the other day I was holding him up and he took steps (with me still holding him) to turn around to face me! I was so excited. I've been trying to work with him a lot but it's been hard to spend much time in this small apartment before going stir crazy.
We've got lots of fun coming up over the next couple of weeks. Jason has a three day weekend this weekend so we're going to do a bit of exploring around Fayetteville (children's museum, animal ranch, etc.) and maybe take a drive out to the North Carolina coast. Next weekend we've booked a hotel for two nights in Myrtle Beach, SC and I'm so excited. I've always wanted to go there and it will be fun to experience the beach in the summer -- normally we visit Daytona Beach, FL in November so it will be quite a different experience!
I'll try and post every few days on here without pics and then when I get home at the end of the month just post blogs filled with pictures.
