The kids had a wonderful Halloween. Wish we could of done more but with the lack of money and everything else we pretty much are stuck with going without.. I'm dreading Christmas time cause I'm pretty sure we arent going to be able to afford anything for the kids.. I hate that we're in such a rut right now and that my kids have to go without. 

I hope that this up coming deployment helps get us out of that rut. I'm going to miss him so much! And the date is set for the 27th of Dec, I'm not looking forward to it... Its coming up sooo fast! But at least he'll be around for Layton's first Christmas.. Just wish that he wasnt going to miss both kid's birthdays ): 

But on a brighter note, my best friend just had her baby! So that was better news that what I've gotten in a while.. His name is Michael Tristian Lynn Wellard Rowley! Talk about a loooong name!

He was 6lbs 10oz 19.5in long... Only 3ozs more than Layton and half an inch loner than him too!

Proud of Cassie, first baby and she did a great job!
