Beau Daniel Fuller

Hello,

Sorry for the delay in posts, Blaze and I have stayed pretty busy. Anyway, things are going great for us. Blaze recently got moved to the new 3rd platoon and no longer has to answer to his old Smoke Sgt, who consistantly gave Blaze hell. I'm SOOOOOO glad, Blaze just seems more motivated now that he doesn't have to deal with Smoke Fluharty.

As for everything else, it's peachy. As you should know by now, we're having a boy. :) We finally decided on a name tonight, Beau Daniel Fuller. I feel a million times better now that we have a name picked out that we both like. :) The baby's been doing aerobics in my belly, that being said, I love it. I like to lay in bed first thing in the morning and feel my belly move. The unfortunate part is that Blaze hasn't been able to feel it yet. Beau could be doing backflips for half an hour, but the second Blazes puts his hand on my belly....nothing. He just checks out, and goes to sleep.

How was everyone's 4th? Blaze and I had our neighbors over for a bbq, we had an absolute blast! We made tons of hamburgers and hot dogs, and played horseshoes. We tried to see fireworks in Sackets Harbor, but missed them. Apparently my information source is somewhat lacking. That's okay though, on the 3rd, Blaze participated in the 1812 Overature with the Syracuse Symphony Orchestra. His platoon brough the Howitzers to Thompson Park in Watertown and fired the canons for the song. It was REALLY cool. After that there were some really great fireworks. The baby wasn't too fond of that, he jumped the first couple of times then just stopped moving all together. Blaze and I have since decided that Beau plays opossum when he gets scared haha.

Well, I must be going now, it's late, Blaze and I have to finish cleaning up the house before we leave for Texas. :) We'll be on our way home on Tuesday!!!!! Can't wait to see everyone! Love you all
