Say hello and wave goodbye

Miss G's new face when she is mad

In the famous words of David Gray....that's just what it feel like Daddy did-- :) He got home and was able to spend a few weeks with us . We were so busy getting reacquainted and essentially integrating him into our lives now with two kids since he really hasn't been here for that. And the tantrums of LM started after Daddy left so he was introduced to those. I am not sure if he is coming back after his IA now--what ?? two screaming kids who want their way , one exhausted mommy and three demanding dogs don't make you want to run home .... ;) I do think now he gets just how busy it is.....some days you're lucky to brush your teeth let alone actually look presentable. There is no down time in our lives anymore.

But that is good, right? Keeps us on our toes.....at least LM does. He is all about Noah's "Biz-ARK".....that's right......a la snoop dogg apparently. He is saying Bizark instead of Ark--we think he is combining the words berzerk (as in Sandra Boynton's Hippos go Berzerk) and Ark (as in Noah ;) -- combine the two and you got something right out of Snoop Dogg's language.
Miss G is rolling around everywhere and sitting up so well. We finally got the all clear from Children's Hospital and no more antibiotics. A chapter all would agree we are glad to close. We had G baptized by our Wing chaplain while daddy was home and it was great--our friends were there and it was a sweet moment for us. Just like w/ LM I hope we can do right by her and raise them in His glory....the most important job we will ever have is to do that. It's tough but all we can do is try our best right?

We are in countdown time now and starting to mark the calendars for daddy's return. Hopefully we will get some down time (ha) together as a family when he returns and we'll get to stay here for the summer before heading cross country....or that is the plan right now. New pics of the kids.....not much else to say....my heart isn't in the blog right now....winter blahs I suppose so I will just put up new pics of the kids and daddy's visit home....videos to follow soon. And yes, Miss G was baptized by a chaplain in a flight suit--it was AWESOME!!! What fantastic pictures of that we'll have one day to show her--only a military family would love that ;)
