6 month Well Baby!

Mike had his checkup yesterday. He's tall and skinny! He was 28 inches which puts him in the 97 percentile but only 16.7 lbs. That is the 31st percentile for weight. He actually didn't put hardly any weight on since his last appointment but he grew like a weed! Anyway, nobody really seemed to be concerned about it. He eats like a horse! He also got his shots. Since we now go to a clinic outside of base he had someone new giving him the shots. It was so sad. The last two times he had them done with the air gun but this clinic does it the old fashion way with needles. Oh boy did he scream like he's never screamed before! But only for a second. So that's it. He's healthy!

Swim Time!

Ready to get out


Sponge Bob No Pants!

Mike LOVES his new pool!
Thanks to Chris we now have a great wading pool for Mike. He loves it! My camera has been on the fritz so I missed the first dip he took today. It was pretty funny! He only had his swim trunks on and it was pretty cute. By the time I started getting these pictures he was out for the second time and needed his shirt! At first I decided to forget about the trunks, but after a while I thought I better put them on! I didn't want his bottom to get burnt!

More Fun Pictures!

He's learning how to use a sippy cup.

Mike eating his lunch. Squash and formula. Yum!

Today we went down to the beach again. This time we let Mike put his feet in. The water is still a little cold, so he didn't really like it. He did like watching the waves coming in though!

Air Show

The Osprey

A 53 (what Joe will fly)



Last weekend we went to the air show. We had a good time. It was neat to get to see so many of the planes up close. Mike had a good time too. Joe and his friends were sneaking him Lemon Shakeup when I wasn't looking!

Joe caught two fish at once!


Mike needs serious help with his spitting up problem!



This is Mike after Joe has put sunscreen on him!

Baby Jordyn!

Here she is, Ms. America! Ha Ha. Here's Hannah and Adam's new baby Jordyn! She's so cute and looks a lot like her mom!

Congratulations Hannah and Adam!

Hannah and Adam finally had their baby! After being a week over due, the doctors finally induced Hannah. Jordyn was born today and she weighed 7lbs 11oz. The poor girl was too late for an epidural so she had to do it the old fashioned way! What a champ! We don't have any pictures of the little one yet, but when we do I will post them!

Winging Weekend

Misc Pics of Mike

Our New Place

Here are some pictures of our new place. It's in Topsail Beach, NC. We are less than a block from the beach! It's very exciting, but it's hard to make decisions when you can't see it in person. The realtor said that our neighbor is a Wilmington Police officer so that makes me feel safe! The picture of the actual house if very blurry. Sorry abou that. There is also a picture of Joe's Helicopter.

Here are the pictures that go with the updates! I forgot to mentions that my dad got us a car seat for Joe's truck. He loves it and put it in as soon as he got home.

Updates!

Well Joe is on his way back from his last cross country flight. He is nearing the end of flight school now. Mike has added rice cereal to his diet. He thinks it's the best. My Dad and Wendy came to visit this weekend. We had a good time just hanging out. My Dad's birthday was on Sunday. Ol'47. I made him a cake to celebrate. Training is going fine. There are 4 5k races coming up in the next month. I think we're going to enter a few of them for practice! This past weekend was also the start of lots of visitors!! yay! I love that time. Abbie should be coming down around the 6th of March. Then my family will be coming around the 1st week of April. Next I believe Joe's family will be coming around mid April for his winging and then off we go to our next destination! We will find out where that will be when we get a little closer to the end. So, I hope everyone is doing well. Hopefully the snow and ice will be gone soon and spring will brighten up your days! If not, just come visit! Bye!

First Week

Well Joe and I are at the end of one full week of training. We started last Thursday. So far it's going pretty well. Of course he's in much better shape than I am, but each run is getting easier and longer. So far the longest is 3 miles, but our long run this week is 4. I'm crossing my fingers that I don't lose a lung. Michael just loves it. He rides along in the stroller while we run on the trail. He thinks it's a blast. It's the only time he will forget that he's not eating! We might have to invest in one of those running stollers though. I'm not sure how long this one will last. It's not meant to be driven at a high rate of speed. Sometimes the wheels lock up and Joe gets embarrassed because it makes him stumble a little:) Poor guy, he has to push because I can barely get myself through the workout, let alone me and a stroller! Ok, well that's the latest! I hope everyone is surviving the cold! Not too much longer and spring will be here!

Go Colts!!

We got a package in the mail today from my mom. It had great Colts gear for us.
We will be watching the game is style! Go Colts!
