Gotta love a man that gets things done!

We are excited that we have our official orders now! We are moving to GA the end of June/beginning of July. However, we will be out of our house here in OH byt the end of May. It should work out well with the kids school schedule as well! We are hoping to get into base housing, but that will depend on whether or not we are able to get a 5 bedroom or not.

Yesterday was a pretty good day. Jerry got a lot done. He started with saving us $20 on our phone bill/DSL bill and then progressed to getting $5 off our dish bill and adding free HBO and Starz for 3 mos!! That will take us right up to our leave time... what a great husband!

Jay is going through a mouthy stage right now... Anna seems to be picking up on his bad behavior. My responsible child, Anna, is now entering a new phase that I am hoping does not last long! Xavier is still being his funny little self. He smiles through everything!

Sydney has not figured out how to stay in one place when she is upset. She ran into the kitchen with her eyes closed, mouth wide open, head back and threw herself at me. Unfortunately for her, I was turning to catch her and she flew past me straight into the dishwasher... face first. Bloody nose, bloody top and bottom lips... and she might have chipped a tooth, not too bad thankfully. I thought it was going to be a lot worse but thankfully it wasn't.

Caleb is our little monkey-baby! He clings to me just like Sydney used to. He also sleeps like Anna did at his age (lay him in his crib with his blankie and he might fuss once but then is out like a light). He is so fun and happy! The kids adore his every laugh, coo, and when he is on the floor- his rolling! We started feeding him baby food today. He seems a lot happier now that he feels like he is eating like the rest of us! His favorite thing to do right now is blow raspberries... all the time... he likes to watch his pacifier fly out of his mouth or watch cereal fly all over you!

All our kids are growing. They have all been eating like their legs are hollow. And they have also been cranky and then crashing out early for bed time! It is funny and sometimes frustrating that they are on the same growth time table! At least I know when I am going to have to buy new clothes!

Our next couple of months are going to be a bit hectic. We have to finish school, sort through our belongings and sluff off the "stuff" that we don't need! I hope everyone out there is doing well!
