John News

Well, John passed his second PRT. We both have since joined a Gym...him to get into mindset of working out on a daily basis and me...I just want to get rid of this last 5-8 lbs of baby fat, while well worth it since I now have Zada out of the deal it's still undesireable. There is daycare at the gym which works out great because she is right there when I get finished...anyway...back to John. Now that he has passed his PRT...again, we are just waiting for a letter in the mail with his "ship date" (this is what I'm calling it even if he is not shipping out, just going to OCS).

OCS stands for Officer Candidacy School. He will attend this for 12 weeks in Rhode Island, then he will go to Athens GA for his "school" where he will learn to be a supply officer. This should last about 27 weeks. We don't know how much time there is between OCS and School, but more than likely not very much.

We will let you know when we recieve the letter with the "ship date", but the recruiter that John has been working with said within 45 days, so it should all happen very quickly.

{{{HUGS}}}

More to Come...Happy Birthday my Princess!!

Here is a teaser pic...I'll post more later.

Zada Pics

I've been behind, but I'll post pictures now.

We still don't know if John will be going in Officer or Enlisted. Hopefully next week...

Here is a Zada fix...sorry it's been so long since I've had a new post. I will work on a good one for Monday...Have a great weekend.

Soooorrryyy...no baby pic...something is not working...will try to edit later.

Christmas Pictures

Zada took some really great Christmas pictures. I'm so excited that I'll probably get some done for her 1st birthday.

This last weekend (12/15-12/16) she did two exciting things. She gave mommy her first kiss ever!!! I was so happy, da da da da, eat your heart out! :) She also pulled herself up to standing. My little girl is growing up so fast!

This year it has been so much more fun to open her presents than my own. I usually try to let her rip the paper, but she hasn't gotten the hang of it yet.

Happy Holidays!!
