On Sunday, October 1st, Aaron was promoted to Staff Sergeant. He has been waiting for a long time for this promotion. He has been promotable for over a year, but had to wait until he was sent to ALC. He was finally sent when we moved to Texas and completed the course the week before Olivia was born. Yesterday was his promotion ceremony. Aaron asked his dad to pin him, so he drove down yesterday morning to be here.
The ceremony was short and sweet, which was good because it was delayed and we were hot from standing outside. Olivia, who slept the entire time we were waiting, started to get upset as soon as the ceremony started. It was too bright and hot for her, so I don't blame her. Afterwards Aaron had to go straight to staff duty, so we didn't get to celebrate with him, but we are proud of him and he knows it!
Let the ceremony begin:
On our way to the ceremony, he told Pappy and I that he wants to be an army guy police doctor. Haha.
Livie was upset at the ceremony, but as soon as we got home she was content and happy as can be. I'm starting to see a trend with her...
XOXO,
Jenn
