I'm Back!!!

Wow, I didn't realize it had been so long since I posted anything on here! Over a month. Not much has really happened. We've been busy trying to get the updating done on the house and trying to just spend time together.

The March for Babies went well! Tom walked with me so I wouldn't have to walk alone (isn't he a sweetie!). We had a blast! I am so going to do this next year too.

D-day #2 is approaching fast and it's hitting me harder this time. Last time, we had 4 days notice and so I was busy with packing his bags that I didn't have time to think about it. Now that he was given an actual date last week, it's hit! Ugh!

Victoria now has 4 teeth and is about 15 lbs at 6 months! She started biting me while she nurses yesterday. I think she has some of her brother in her. The first time she bit me it was when she first started to nurse and bit me (I think to get me to look at her) and then smiled at me and went on eating.

Gabriel has started acting up more in school. Nothing bad but just "normal" stuff that he knows he shouldn't do (sitting on desks, talking when he shouldn't, moving around when he should be sitting and listening). I'm not sure, but I think some of it is he knows Tom is going to deploy and I think it's also due the fact I think he has night terrors. I looked up the difference between nightmares and night terrors on Friday (because he scared me by how he was acting after he screamed Mommy...like he was hypnotized). It took us 5+ minutes to "wake" him up. So, I am going to try and get an appointment to talk with a doc about it. Ugh...poor guy.

On a good note, Katheryn is trying to potty train. She's telling me when she has to go poop (most of the time) and has on occasion, told me when she had to go pee pee.

Promotion Day!

Thomas is getting promoted to CPT today! I'm excited for him and proud of him! They are planning to do a "ceremony" type thing today so I'm hoping to be able to make it. It's calling for thunderstorms starting when the ceremony will begin. I'll get pictures up later. Funny that it's on Halloween (but I'm sure Tom loves that!).


She didn't quite know what was going on, but she likes to pull his patches off. Everyone in the room went "Awww How cute". :-D

Gabriel and I put his 2LT rank on when he was commissioned after OCS Graduation, so this was Katheryn's turn.

Ozark Hills 3rd Annual Shop Hop

Well, today I went into the local quilting shop looking for a good backing fabric for a Pledge of Allegiance panel I have. Well when I went to check out, she told me about this Shop Hop they were doing this weekend. You go around to 6 different quilt stores in the area and get your "passport" stamped. Then your name is entered into a drawing for some pretty cool stuff. I'm wondering if it would be worth it for me to go and try to win something (because 1. I'd probably want to buy something at each store and 2. I'm not sure if I wanna drive around by myself to areas I know nothing about because Tom might be too busy Sat to go with me).

As for the #1 reason, I bought another stencil and a cute "Little Red Hen" quilt pattern on top of the fabric at the first place! LOL I'm such a sucker for cute things!



The Prizes are:

*~* Grand Prize *~*
$300 in fabric and/or supplies (Consisting of one $50 gift certificate from each of the six participating shops, redeemable at the issuing shop.)

*~* 2nd Prize *~*
Choice of Prize Quilt Kit from any one of the six participating shops. All Prize Quilt Kits will be entered into the drawing.

*~* 3rd Prize *~*
Gift Basket

Plus, all participating customers will receive a free quilt block pattern at each store.



Ugh Decisions Decisions!!!
