Everything is going well. Chris is doing fine. He hasn't really started training per say. On Monday, he spent until 7:00 getting equipment issued. Today he has to qualify on the M16 "army style." He already qualified for the Air Force, but the Army uses moving targets. That will take the majority of the day. His spirits are up and he is working out and trying to eat well. We miss him so much. I think about him all the time and really miss his phone calls, but we are doing well too. Claire had her 15 month immunizations yesterday, so she was a bit clingy. I confess I kind of liked it. My cell phone quit working on Sunday, so it has been a long few days. I switched to one that won't hold a charge for long until I get my new one in the mail. Claire took care of that one this morning. She dumped it in the sink. Water is her big thing. She loves to wash her hands or just stand on the toilet playing in the water. I guess the phone issue was my own negligence, but STILL. This is her 2nd ruined phone and she isn't even 2!
So, we are still roughing it in our amazingly, wonderfully fabulous, new house. That means, air mattresses in our living room. Fun. The girls love it, Chris and I not so much ;) Anyway, the close proximity means Chris and I get to eavesdrop on some very tender moments. They seriously bring tears to my eyes. How did we get so lucky to have them as our children??? Here's one example. Claire--"Mya, can we snuggle?" Mya--"sure." Claire--"don't let go." Mya--"No, I'll just wait until you are sleeping." Claire--"No, you wait until the middle of the night." Mya--"Okay, I'll wait until the middle of the night." Then we hear lips smacking. So cute. I won't share the meltdown that occured moments before this sweetness ;) Life isn't always rosey, now is it? Ha! In other news..we get internet today and our furniture/things tomorrow! That means 1 more night of "roughing it!" Yippee!
