Daddy's Home!

It's been a while since I posted... Mainly because Roger is home, and other than that, nothing else is really new.... Well, ok I guess it just feels to me like nothing is really new. Roger got home and had 2 weeks of leave. He's been applying for jobs, but has not had any luck yet. We are now back up in Idaho for the last month of work he needs to do for the AF and so the kids and I are just sitting around in TLF going stir crazy. We have been able to see lots of our old friends, and met our good friend Derek and Vernae's new baby, who is adorable! And sadly will be attending the funeral of some other close friend's new baby. We were supposed to be coming back to Utah for the 4th of July, but Roger's work has decided against that now.

Roger is doing good. He is now looking for jobs here on base also, since we have been in Mountain Home for 5 years, it's become home too. We never had a problem with living in MH, just the long drive, and Roger just hated his job and having to work 14-15 hours a day and having to deploy... So we figure why not look here too?

I'm good. Glad to have Roger back... Usually. ;) 

Abby is good. Full of energy, as usual. She has recently been obsessed with wanting a baby sister. While shopping in Walmart she randomly started saying (very loudly) "Why can't I have a little sister!? I want a little sister!!" All the while I'm wrangling Kole and Ammon and thinking, "Uh! Hello!? Bad timing to beg for me to have another kid!!" We have been seeing lots of cute newborns up here which is making Abby's baby hunger grow. Unfortunately, even though they are all very cute, my baby stomach is so full and bloated I could burst... I'm the opposite of baby hungry...

Kole is good. He has the "brother" position down pat! He is the biggest pest! He is going to be seeing a specialist the end of July for his stomach/bowel issues he's had for a long time. That's all really new with him.

Ammon, thinks he's in his terrible 2s. He is a pro at breaking things. Especially stuff in the store as we walk past it. Which is all doing well at keeping my baby hunger away. Frankly... I'm exhausted!

I tried to post the videos of Roger when he got home and saw the kids and the dogs, but they are such big files I'm having a hard time getting them to post.

Hope all is well with all of you!

Past pictures

So, I finally got the pictures from my phone onto my computer...
Here are some pictures that I have taken while Roger's been gone.

Kole's birthday
Poor kid, we all were just getting over a stomach bug so he got hostess cupcakes for his birthday cake.

Ready for church!


Other random pics.







In these next ones we were comparing height to the counter...



Now for the daddy pics! (I've made Roger send pictures of himself throughout the deployment.)
He was doing moustache March.
In the Easter package we sent him, we sent some bunny ears we made for him to wear! Haha!

Hard at work in his tent.

They both know it, Kole was just too busy messing with Abby's barbie.

Easter

Don't you just love springtime?
We had the Easter bunny come early because grandma and grandpa Miller are leaving town this weekend but they wanted to be here for Easter. Here are the pictures.



(Roger, notice the 2 in the top left corner we made for you.)

Getting ready to see what the Easter bunny brought!




Egg hunting.

It's my party and I'll cry if I want to.

Ammon is 1 year old!
Here's the pictures from his birthday!
Birthday hugs!!

While mommy was busy, he emptied the wet wipes container, and the toilet paper roll and was playing in the toilet... I guess he's starting his terrible two's early... He's such an overachiever!

CAKE!
Why are you all singing??



Stop helping me!
GIVE IT BAAAACK!!!!

Why are you doing this to me!? This is TORTURE!

Happy Birthday Ammon!!

Sneaky Leprechauns!

Happy St. Patrick's Day to you all!
The Leprechauns have already been here tonight (after the kids went to sleep that is... They'll see the tricks in the morning).
Here are the things they've done so far!
Look at the mess they've made!


How did our shoes get there??

They left a leprechaun size note!

They made a mess! And they left footprints!!

They drew shamrocks and lips on the kids while they are sleeping! (Pretty good for having drawn them in the dark!)
