We survived the deployment, now just trying to survive toddlerhood...

Day 26

Stuart is on mission #3.  I found out via email this morning that he would be heading out today. Around 7am he was able to text and let me know he would be leaving soon and that it would be a short mission - one where they would fly to Germany (8 hrs) unload/reload and fly back. Whew!  And he only slept about 4 hours last night. He said he would text me before he left... and the last I heard was that he was heading to the hospital... so maybe that was the text - who knows. Either way, he should be there by now and as always - I am worried that I haven't heard anything. The patient had a STEMI (which is a fancy way to describe the type of heart attack for all you non medical peeps). 

I will update when I know more. I think he was excited for the mission because he is getting bored. Yesterday he was researching cars for us to buy. Apparently he can get a pretty sweet deal over there, even with shipping costs. Hopefully I can do the test driving and we can pick out a car =)  He has it narrowed down to the Ford Explorer or Dodge Durango.

We didn't do much around here today. We showed mom the Gap clearance store, of course Hadley wasn't a fan. We tried to visit a few more stores and it was pretty much a disaster, as per usual.  We decided to try out Chick Fil A for lunch.  Pretty sure if a fire marshall came in they'd be in deep trouble. Mom took J to play in the playground until she saw green snot draining from every orifice from one of the kiddos. J man loves it, but man are they filthy.  I fed  Hadley some bananas because she wouldn't take her bottle. Not sure who was wearing more bananas, her or me? You know, I'm actually getting used to people staring at me now. I just laugh and think to myself - you have no idea.  

Its beginning to look like Christmas around here.... especially with more snow!
