Circles!!

I know i've said it a hundred times on here but Jack LOVES to color and write. Well the other day he was on my lap and I said draw mommy a circle and much to my surprise this is what he did. He is so smart! I guess he learned that one on blues clues haha

The Perfect Babysitter

Last Tuesday and Wednesday the movers were here loading up Sam and John's apartment and Jack absolutely loved watching them load the trucks. He stood in that window for about 3 hrs on Tuesday and 2 hrs on Wednesday just because it only took 2 hrs to get the last of their stuff. I think it is awesome how much he loves trucks!!


We're going to miss you Maddy! Good thing we are both moving to the same place so we will only be apart for a month and a half :)

Kaleb is 3 months old!!

I took him in today to get his reflux medicine refilled and when his Dr. saw me she said "WOW! You look like a new woman." haha I guess sleep really is good for a person. Thank you Prevacid!! Kaleb is still healthy and she couldn't believe the change in him since being on the meds. She said he is even calmer. He laid there and just laughed and smiled at her the whole time. Weight 13 pounds (62%) Height 24.41 inches (82%) Head 41 cm (59%)

Date Night

After the Fest Josh and I went on our last date in Germany cause my mom is leaving Thursday so we won't have a babysitter anymore. We went to our favorite restaurant, Brauhau, then to the movies to see Something Borrowed. We really enjoyed our evening and I'm realizing that we really are going to miss Germany

My favorite German meal, Wienerschnitzel and Kase Spaetzle (cheese noodles)

Our delicious Apfelstrudel ( apple strudel)

Holzgerlingen Fest

Getting Ready to go to the Fest

The village that we live in had their fest this weekend so we decided to walk down and enjoy all the German culture one last time before we move. They are really fun and the food is so yummy!




Finding Treasures with Daddy

Yesterday we were driving home from post and saw a flohmarkt (flea market) so we had to stop cause Josh loves looking for treasures :)


Jack got a cool rug to play with his trucks on

Mommy found an awesome tea set from the 70's Made in Bavaria

Daddy really liked this wine bottle basket so he got it :)

It was a great day to stop at the Flohmarkt!!

Daddy's Home!!

Last Sunday July 10th my cell phone started ringing at 5am. I wasn't to happy until I answered and it was Josh telling me to open the front door!! I was so excited I didn't even put my glasses on to run down stairs. I was totally surprised cause the last time I talked to him was Friday and he was still at his FOB trying to get to one of the main Air Force Hubs to fly home to Germany. So When I didn't hear from him all day Sat I just figured he was making it there and usually you have to wait there for 3 to 5 days before you get out. He told me he hitched hiked all the way home haha Once his team sgt. told him he could leave him and another guy sat outside with a sign that said BAF or JAF, which are the two Air Force Hubs. Someone was nice enough to let them ride in their helicopter and once they got there a guy they knew got them right on a flight to Ramstien Germany where someone from there unit brought them to Stuttgart and his friend gave him a ride home!! We are so glad to have him home and now it really feels like moving is real.

Last July when Josh got home he brought an Afghani hat for Jack

And this July he got a new one :)

Jack loves to color and even though he doesn't stay in the lines yet it amazes me how he knows to color in them cause I've never told him. Every time we color together I just scribble all over the page but he went dot to dot on this picture


Of course we all know how much Jack loves, trucks, cars and basically anything with wheels but lately he has been lining everything up and today he make a train out of his little tonka trucks and pushed them around :)



Kaleb loves his big brother!


Jack hanging out on the deck showing Mamaw Kathy the airplanes. He is so into pointing at stuff right now and saying see!

Our Last Girl's night in Germany

July 6 was our last girls night in Germany since Mariana and Annie were flying back to the states on the 9th. Of course we had our last dinner at the Brauhaus in Boblingen. We love eating here and it's my favorite restaurant in this area :)
