Jace Kennedy

Our sweet baby is one week old today!!!

Deployment

Jacob is leaving soon & I am trying to keep calm. Mainly for Korbin’s sake. Otherwise I’d be a complete wreck!!! 4 days to go. We are going to be out of our apartment on the 16th, clean it & turn in keys on the 17th. I still need to change my address with the post office! Ugh, so much to do! We’re really making progress on packing the apartment. Monday we’re going to rent a U-Haul to move from one storage unit to a bigger one & move the stuff from the apartment. After everything is out, we’re going to stay in a hotel until my mom gets here to drive back to Arizona with us. I’m so glad I started packing early. We only had about a weeks notice of the official date. Gotta love the Army! I’ll update my other blog with all of the Army info & try to keep this blog about the kids. If you’d like to have access to my private blog, send me a comment & I will add you.

She’s Here!

Jacob & I are thrilled that Jace is finally here! Korbin has been so good with his baby sister. We have been so blessed the past few days with wonderful friends & family. When we found out that my water had broke I called a HUGE favor in to our friends, the Carters, and they took Korbin for us while I was in surgery & even took him overnight for his first non-family sleep-over! Korbin loved watching movies & going to the zoo with his best buddy, Dawson. We are so lucky to have friends like them! And, of course, my parents drove up as soon as they could. It has been so great having them here to help. Korbin sure did miss them! Tyler should be flying up for a couple of days next week, if his job will give him the time off. 

There is a tiny downside to Jace coming early… it means Jacob leaves earlier than we hoped. Which also means we are going to be even busier these next 2 weeks getting everything ready for Korbin, Jace & me to move back to Arizona.
