Never a dull moment

Ok so another quick update on Life in Georgia. Things have been absolutely crazy around here! The house has been cleaned and the garage is full of packed and unpacked boxes. There is no room for a car and barely room to walk around the maze. We have been busy updating the construction paint in a few rooms that never got repainted, doing all the little odd jobs that should have been done some time in this last 5 years we have been here. Why does it take a move to get all those jobs actually done? We still don't have a renter yet but are waiting and hoping it will be soon.

Kierra, well she is a busy body. Keeping mom on her toes. Last week she ended up getting moms hairspray and sticking it in her mouth, she even chomped down on the pump and got a mouthful of the yucky liquid, Mom called Poison Control- sad when I have it plugged into my phone contacts! Then the next day she tripped and split her head open on the corner of the dresser. She was at the doctors, twice in three days. She had her 15 month check as well and seems to be growing consistently and hitting all the developmental milestones she needs to be. She is now 31 inches tall and weights 24lbs. She is 75 percentile all the way around. Well then Monday she decided to follow mommy up the stairs even though there was a baby gate in the way. That didn't seem to stop her until just getting past it that is. She knocked it over where it laid on the stairs and decided to climb over it. Once she got just past it she decided it was time to stand up and then tripped and fell head over heels right over it to the wood floor at the bottom. Needless to say she ended up with a concussion and a CT scan and another doctor visit. (The CT scan showed that her brain was alright but she does have a sinus infection so now she is also on antibiotics. Maybe this will explain the constant runny noses and the fevers!) She still has a nice size goose-egg on the back of her poor little head. She has decided mom doesn't have enough to do right now and is trying to fix that for me.

I too have had a few doctors visits of my own. I have finally decided it is time to go have my ankle worked on and see if I can't get it fixed. I have had xrays and and MRI done and now a brace to wear every day. And to top that off physical therapy three days a week till we leave. It looks like I will wait to have the surgery till we get settled in Alaska.

Kenn is doing wonderful and is so happy to be "Signing OUT" of the unit. He has finally received his orders and and will be signing out of the company on the 20th of April. After going through so many different commands and 2 deployments he is not sad to leave here. Alaska here we come!

We will be pulling out of Richmond Hill on May 1, and headed to Utah to see as many friends and family as we can before we go to the Kimber Reunion in Idaho and then on up to Seattle to see Shari and Tyler and you too Steve. We are excited to see you all!
