Another Crazy Week

We welcomed March in with another couple inches of snow. Hopefully with March coming in like a lion it will go out like a lamb! It's supposed to be in the low to mid 60s this weekend so I'm hopeful.

Jack got let out of school early on Tuesday due to the snow and immediately headed outside to play with his soldiers.

Ethan is finally feeling better and I'm back to my nesting stage, getting the house in order and ready for baby Wyatt to arrive. Now we just have to deal with Jason and his uncertain future.

He finally spoke to the surgeon in Atlanta, who told him he had the knee of a 67 year old! He was hopeful that Jason could be fixed and return to his training, but didn't know if it was going to be an 8 week or 8 month healing process (depends on exactly what kind of surgery is needed).


Then today he spoke to the military surgeon PA and was told the knee was pretty bad and he didn't think Jason would be able to continue on with his training but couldn't say for sure until the surgeon took a look at it. So now we wait until April 2nd for that appointment. In the meantime, Jason has another appointment to see the neck surgeon to deal with the bulging disc's in his back in mid-March. Through all this we are remaining positive and hopeful that he will be able to return to fulfilling his dream!



We finally got the last piece of furniture we ordered back in December delivered this week and we all love the ottoman. The boys have especially been having fun playing on it.

Having a Great Visit with Aunt Delly

I know it's been a VERY long time since I've last posted, but it's hard when you have company in town. Plus, I've been especially exhausted this past week. Jack get's so excited when we have visitors that he gets even crazier than normal! September should be fun when we have Daddy, Granny and Grandma in town. I've been continuously changing up our great room bookshelves, so I thought I would post a photo for you to see. If anyone has more ideas on how to make it look better, let me know. These are some pictures of Jack at gymnastics. He has gotten so much better at this club. They do a lot more strengthening stuff than the old place. Plus they have an older boys class so they don't just teach girly stuff at this age. It's been fun to see him do so well. Of course, a lot of time he still goofs around, trying to fall off stuff, but for the most part he's pretty good at staying on task. Last week they did the monkey bars and he LOVED it and was

The Olympics

Wow, I can't believe it's been so long since I've last posted a message. I guess it's been due to a combination of being really busy and not having much to say! Is that a contradiction? We've been letting Jack stay up late since Friday so that he could enjoy the Olympics. He really enjoyed the opening ceremony and has been in awe of the gymnastics. We went to a BBQ on Sunday night and just as we were getting ready to leave they put the ladies gymnastics on and all the kids say and watched. We had to drag Jack away. In other news, we're getting ready to do a really crazy thing. After only two months of having no debt and house payment, we're putting in an offer on a new home! We really had no plans to do this, but when we went to visit our friends on Sunday, we decided to drive around and look at the houses there. We had looked in there back before Ethan was born and fell in love with the place so we thought we'd just take a look and see how much i

Last Day in Prague

Our last full day in Prague. We had a late night parting the night before and a very early morning excursion but this was the one I was excited for! We did a similar excursion in Italy and loved it too. This was an awesome city bike tour to the Vysehrad Castle. We stopped for photo ops along the way - including here along the Charles River. But it's all fun and games until someone gets stopped by the Polizia! Before we left on our trip I was told to make sure you stay away from the police, so I was surprised to come up the big steep hill to see Jason stopped by one. I guess our tour guides didn't get the permit to ride in the park (too close to kids and a school). We had all just come up a big steep hill and were separated from the front of our group. Jason stopped to wait for me and the rest of the group to make sure we knew where to go. We had three guides, on leading, one in the middle who pulled away from Jason, and then one at the back.
