ONE WEEK LEFT!!!

I am so excited that next week is THANKSGIVING!!! Oh. Man. If you read my post from last year (you can read it here if you'd like) you know I'm most excited about the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade! I don't know if I'm more excited to watch the parade, or to share this tradition with my son. Thanksgiving is also the day that our family watches "The Wizard of Oz." I love having all of these traditions to share with Cole. This is going to be the best Thanksgiving yet.

Moving Day...Again

I feel like a nomad, but I guess that’s the life of a military family! We’ve been in Germany for about a month and a half and are FINALLY moving into our new home tomorrow!

I’ve been packing all morning, so that when Josh gets home from work we can run and try and set up our internet service so we won’t be without it for too long! After that, we are loading his car up as full as we can so that tomorrow all we need to do is hop in the car and go to the place we’ll be spending the next 3 years of our lives!

Oh and I had a doctor’s appointment a couple of days ago, still haven’t heard the heartbeat, but I got an ultrasound since the baby wasn’t cooperating, I think the baby secretly did it on purpose, because the whole time we watched our little Etcha (that’s what I call the baby instead of “it” since ultrasounds remind me of an Etch-a-Sketch) on the screen there was a lot of flopping around and even some waving to us!!!

Well, I still have lots to do; I just wanted to update everyone! Also, Thanksgiving is in a WEEK, only 7 more days until I get to watch the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade!

Has it been 12 weeks already?!

I can’t believe that I’m already 12 weeks and some change! This is crazy! This week just keeps getting better too! This Friday, after almost a month and a half of living in a hotel and 3 months of living out of suitcases, we will finally have a place to call home and all of our belongings will be back in our hands!

To be fair, I know there are a lot of people who go longer without their possessions, and I don’t know how they do it. It does make me really appreciate what we do have, and when we have it all back, I will feel blessed!

I don’t think it would be a proper November post if I didn’t mention how excited I am for Thanksgiving!!! Almost a week away! Still have some shopping to do, but we wanted to wait to get the bigger stuff for when we got our house, and all the storage it holds! After that, it’s game on!!! Also, if it’s almost Thanksgiving, then it’s almost time for the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade!!! Yahoo!!!

Now the challenge is to get into our new home, and unpack like crazy so we can find out if our casserole dishes and turkey will fit in our oven-wish us luck!
