Brooke and Andrew's Wedding

This weekend Bill and I had a fabulous time at our friends, Brooke and Andrew's, wedding in NY. We got to enjoy ourselves, have a night away, and see all our friends!! Bill flew back to NC yesterday and is finishing up his last month as General Hejlik's Aide, bittersweet, but we are looking forward to a new chapter! Here are a few pictures, I will hopefully get the rest up on our website soon, that is proving difficult from my parents house!! I am heading down to see our friends Mark and Kerry and their kids Brett and Sarah today. Take care and congrats and happy honeymoon to Brooke and Andrew!!

Father's Day and Swimming Lessons

This past week Lillian took swimming lessons and did a great job! It started out a little rough, but that happens when daddy is away!! She ended up loving them, and did a great job listening and following the lifeguards instructions. Jumping on her own, dunking her head and even doing beginning arm strokes!! Bill got home from an out of country trip just in time to celebrate father's day with us all which was wonderful! We went to the beach and the pool and had a fabulous day!! William also enjoyed some leftover birthday cupcakes for breakfast!! To look at a few more pictures visit the link below. Enjoy!!

Painting the Day Away

The kids had a great time painting, as you can see. William decided to make himself into a Warrior Prince, instead of putting the paint onto paper!! He had fun though, and Lillian and I had a great time laughing at him!! To view some more pictures of the kids painting, and just of them that I added check out our web site:

Kid Tested (Wiliam 15 months Old)

Today William had his 15 month check up and he is doing great! He had a huge growth spurt since his one year check up and grew just over 2 inches, and is now just over 33 inches and in the 95% for height (that is up from the last time) he gained just about a pound from his one year check up and is 23.75 lbs and actually dropped in percentile to below the 25% for weight, but the Dr said that is fine, that he is just thinning out, and getting taller!! We know William has no problem eating. He and I are both handling sinus infections now, not fun, but with medications we are feeling better!!
The kids and I have been keeping busy heading to the pool most days, and this week I also took the moving class on base here and got our moving dates set: we will be packed on August 17th, loaded on the 18th, and checked out and heading West to Oklahoma early on the 19th of August! So that is a huge relief to have all that figured out! The pictures are the kids testing the cat carrier we bought for our cats to travel in on the way to Oklahoma. They thought it made a much better kid toy, then kitty cage!! =o)

End of Preschool, Beginning of Summer!

This past week Lillian finished her first year of preschool, she immediately asked if we were moving the next day!! =o) We are so thankful to Ms. Debbie and Ms. Aura for all they have done, not just this year with Lillian, but the three years she was at Paradise Point with them, and I know Lillian will miss them as much as I already do, and it's only Wednesday!! The kids enjoyed a birthday party this weekend where they quickly found "power tools" and had a visit from their Grandpa Soucie and his wife Judy. It was a very busy week!! The other picture, was just too cute: we had a messy dinner to the point I just took William's shirt off, and when I set him down and told him I needed to clean up, he ran and got his vacuum and decided to help me! Tomorrow I am off to TMO to set up our moving dates to Oklahoma, I will be sure to pass them along once I have them!! For more pictures here are a few links:
