Travis is gone down to Texas this weekend, but will thankfully be back tomorrow. This starts a long year of him being gone for various reasons. It's always hard when he's not here and I guess I never really appreciate all he does around here until he is away. I'm so thankful I have a husband who is willing to help me out in whatever I ask. This has been the first time he has been away that Sophie has really taken notice too. She loves to have her daddy to snuggle with in the mornings and play with when he comes home from work, I think she gets bored with me when he's not here! She looked for him underneath our covers the other morning, it was too sweet. She is definitely a daddy's girl!
To help time pass while Travis is away we sometimes just have to get out of the house so we go on walks around the neighborhood. Yesterday, while on our walk, we saw pretty flowers, birds, trees and two antelope lying in a field. Something I did not anticipate seeing was a giant RAT swimming in drainage trench that runs through the park in our neighborhood! It was so disgusting and kind of freaked me out. I mean he was right there at us. I saw him as we were about to cross a small bridge, he went under and we quickly crossed to get away from him. Needless to say, we won't be going through that park for a while!
Another thing I am trying while Travis is away is getting Sophie off her pacifier. We'll see how this goes, I think I need to be the strong one here!
