Here we go Again...

Well we are back in here in good ole Wyoming after being gone for almost 2 years. It is going well and the kids are adjusting. I keep promising them the park but with snow, rain, tornado's, and colds we have yet to make it there! They are doing pretty good about not asking for daddy everyday. It is hard to explain to two almost 3 year olds and a 15 month old that daddy has to work for a looonnngggg time. They start asking around dinner time and bedtime where he is. On May 15th Jose left to Afghanistan for yet another deployment. My parents were gracious enough to watch the little ones while I flew back to see him off. It was great to spend what little time we had left together. It is always hard to send him off because he is always such a big help with the kids. Mom has been doing great at helping me out :) Gabriel is a little talker now and loves to say new words. My stubborn Michael will not speak unless he thinks you are not listening. Lina has grown a bunch and is talking too. Her new thing is to sit on the potty after watching the boys :) The boys are doing great with the potty training and now only wear a diaper at night time! We have little accidents now and then but that is just boys I think. So far they are all healthy and doing great, just fighting colds this week :( I will post more soon, below are some pictures of Jose's send off!

Updates...

Well it has been forever since I have posted anything on here so I figured I would share some stories from our life. Where to start? The last blog I posted talked about how we were getting ready to move. We made our move in October, and are finally getting settled in here at Fort Campbell, Kentucky. I realized after I unpacked our last box that I would soon be packing it up again, just did not know when. Well we found out that Jose deploys again in May, so that box has been brought out of the garage and is getting packed all over again. We knew that it was coming, but we figured we would have a little more time. He has been keeping busy at work and our time is getting stretched to the limits. His unit spent a month in Fort Polk, Louisiana last month and he made it back just in time for Carolina's first birthday. Our litte girl is growing so fast, and watching her grow has been such a blessing. She is a petite little thing, only weighing 20lbs and 29in long now. She has been one healthy little girl with only colds. This has been a blessing as well, because the boys have no such luck. Gabriel had another ear infection last month and we spent a few hours in the E.R. trying to bring his fever down and figure out what was wrong. He is doing better now, and will see a specailist soon to figure out what the problem is. Michael has been doing great. He is a car fanatic and makes sure to point out all the ones we see. He is by far the most outgoing one of the twins and is the first to try the daring things. Gabriel is cautious and takes his time, but is such a big talker. He is currently on repeat mode, so we are really watching what we say when he is around!! haha. As for me, I am well. School work has proven to be a little rough these last couple of months, but I am still maintaining a 3.8 GPA and am halfway through my classes for my Associates degree in Criminal Justice. It is a great feeling knowing that soon I will finally have a degree!! I pray that time will slow down a little bit so that we can get everything taken care of before Jose leaves. I guess this is it for now. I will see all my Wyoming friends soon, and I am looking forward to the kids getting to spend some time with their cousins :) Love to all!!
