One step closer to Colorado

Today i shipped our car...that was a lot of paperwork...but all done now! I am now one step closer to Colorado...tomorrow the house inspector comes to make sure we are good to clear housing in two weeks..there are a few minor things that need repair, but the average things..busted baseboard, loose door knob...and so on! The movers arrive on the 29th then on the 3rd we fly!

Staying Busy

Jeremy has been gone six weeks now. Colin and I are staying busy! Johanna came for a visit last week and we had a wonderful trip! We went to Amsterdam and that was amazing! Now i am busy planning the BIG move! I have found us a home..just signed the lease yesterday...and am eager to start school in Colorado. We fly from Germany to Colorado on June 3rd. Seems like just yesterday i moved to Europe and now i am leaving! I have loved living here!
The car is being shipped on this coming Tuesday and the movers come on the 29th! I have heard from Jeremy here and there and he seems to be doing as well as could be expected! Johanna and i mailed a care package to Jeremy and ten other soldiers. They each got a bag filled with soap, razors, baby wipes, tissues, pens, paper, envelopes, candy, beef jerky and letters to cheer them up! If you would like Jer's address over there to send a letter of support or a package just let me know! Until i type again i will be staying busy.....

Jeremy is gone...for 15 months...

Jeremy is gone...he left almost two weeks ago! Colin and I are keeping busy the best we can! Colin has made a new girlfriend named Annabell...he calls her Bell! They spend some afternoons together!
I got accepted to the University of Colorado! So i am planning our big move back to America! Things are moving slow, but at least they are moving!
More to come!

Happy Anniversary!

Four years ago today Jeremy and I eloped to Virginia Beach in the middle of the night! Looking back I can truly say it was a wild risk, but well worth it!
We have had our share of ups and downs and I am looking forward to the Years to come!
I love you babe and I love US!

The Vaseline War

Last night we stayed up late and it seemed to be a normal start.....Colin in bed (or so we thought) and a movie on... we kicked back! After about twenty minutes of silence from Colin's room i went to check on him....all was not well! There was a silent Vaseline War in progress and I interrupted it! The scene was Vaseline covered walls, toys, sheets, and baby! His beautiful blonde curls now covered in a greasy substance! OMG! How do you handle this...LAUGH....and so i did!
The bath proved to be nothing but water beading up on skin (the grease caused it to bead and stick) and hair that wouldn't wash clean! I quickly googled WAYS TO RINSE OUT VASELINE FROM HAIR. The answer was Baking Soda...which by the way DOES NOT WORK. On to Plan B....Shaving the Head! I felt like wailing into a tear fit as i watched his lovely greased hair fall to the floor...The result...a bald baby...an empty Vaseline Jar...and a lesson learned!
Thus concluded the Vaseline War!

Colin's first visit to the Dentist

Wow my little boy had his first visit to the Dentist! He did great! He held a giant mirror shaped like a tooth and let the dentist count his teeth! After his exam the dentist told us he has a healthy smile and NO cavities!!! YAY Great job Colin!
