8/17 Update
Jim should be home in about 10 days! This “trial deployment” has gone very smoothly. I hoped it would go well so I’d have that confidence boost going into the deployment. Jim has enjoyed the training. He said its been good training and his soldiers have done well with it.
Elizabeth starts back at Awanas this week. She’s very excited.
Ben’s two bottom teeth are fully in and he’s working on the top two now. As you can see in the pictures below, he’s pulling up now. Elizabeth gets so excited when he does and says “Good job, Buddy Brother!!”
I’ve uploaded some new pictures & videos.
Look at me! My boy is pulling up & standing!!
Jim’s Kids Elizabeth has a couple old Nintendo controls that she likes to play. She decided to get one out for each of them. It kept them occupied for a good ten minutes.
I’ve moved the videos again. :) Just from one Google location to another, so there shouldn’t be any problems viewing. If there are, please let me know! I don’t remember which ones I’ve already posted, so here’s the link to the folder of videos.
I booked our trip for December. We come in on the 22nd (hopefully to snow!) and leave on January 13. I’m really hoping for a big snow during the trip! I don’t need two feet like we got back in 2004 when I was home for Christmas but I’d take one foot!
