cleaning and moving

We have moved out of Sycamore Drive and are currently staying in the base temporary housing...aka base hotel. We have a very nice suite with two bedrooms, living room and nice large kitchen. But the best part is....Air Conditioning!!! The temps are reaching close to 90 today and tomorrow, so I am so thankful we decided to get out of the house early and get settled in TLF (Temp lodging facility).

Rob and I have cleaned, cleaned and did more cleaning and passed our house inspection earlier today. I think we could have passed it with just our normal cleaning, but we wanted to make sure we passed, so we did a deep cleaning and came out smelling like simple green and clorox!

Our last week in the UK will still be a busy week, but not as busy as this week was. The girls have been great with all the moving, cleaning, packing and changes happening. I actually think they like staying in TLF more than the house because the park is nicer over here:)

Well, I just wanted to check in and pass along an update. I'm exhausted and think I will get some much needed rest this afternoon (and a little laundry washed).

See some of you soon:)

4th of July fun

Our last Independence Day in the UK.

We spent the day at RAF Feltwell for a day of rides, junk food and spending money.

The girls seem to think it is easy to win a stuffed animal....but we only walked away with one big bear.

We all had a fun day out and hope you all had a happy 4th too.

Happy 4th of July!

Moment of silence for Cohen today as his parents have his memorial service.

last ballet class in the UK

This past Thursday was the girls last ballet class in the UK.

They gave Ms. Marina flowers to thank her for three fun ballet years.

The lessons were at the Youth center on the base.

6 months old

Sarah is 6 months old (as of yesterday)

She is a busy little girl....

She decided to grab the camera while I was trying to take her picture.

Sarah has her 6 month check up in early July, so I will update her stats after that appointment.

Sarah is still nursing every 3 hours during the day...but can go 4 hours some days.

She is eating breakfast and dinner too. She can almost sit on her own....she is still a little top heavy.

Sarah can pick up small pieces of food and put them in her mouth.....she is serious about eating.

Sarah can sleep through the night. We have started a new schedule of 8pm-5am. She nurses and then goes back to sleep until 7 or 8am.

She loves to play on the floor and in the exersaucer. She also loves her two big sisters to play with her.

She has a lot to say and is very vocal when she wants something. She loves to be held and she gives hugs and kisses.

Sarah still wears 6-9 month clothes and size 2 diapers.

Sarah is trying to crawl and stand.

So many more things are going on in her little life. She is a sweet baby girl and laughs and smiles all the time.
