THREE Months Later...

So it has been almost 3 months since I have posted anything on here...SO Much has been going on, so lack of stuff is definitely not the reason for lack of posts! So here is the "short" version of the last 3 months...

We went to New Mexico, Texas and Oklahoma on our trip back home this summer, put over 5,000 miles on our car...so insane, but it was a good trip, won't do it again for a LONG time, especially without Korry, but it was a lot of fun! We got to go to see my sister and her 3 kiddo's and they all got along surprisingly well! It was nice to get some time at nights to play cards, drink margarita's and sit with my sister and her husband! It was a good time! :o) Then we went and saw my Grandparents and cousins that live around there, it was also a lot of fun! We hardly ever get to see them, so it was nice! Then we went and saw my Mom and her husband Tom and stayed there for awhile and went down to San Antonio to see Korry's parents. That was fun, we drove around the base down there and went to Sea World and swam in their pool every day! The kids LOVED it because they live near a farm and the animals all come around their house, and they got to feed them, so everyday was like waking up at the zoo, lol! It was fun! Then we also got to drop in on my friends from Oklahoma. It was a short visit, but it was Good to see them! And finally on our way home we stopped in Colorado Springs and saw some friends of ours, my MUCH MISSED Neighbors, from here in Montana and we had lunch with them and stayed and visited with them...so it was a VERY long trip, but again, very fun and worth it! :o)
When we got home Kiley and Brendan started swimming lessons 2 days later and it was FREEZING! SO SO Cold and Brendan Hated it, but Kiley did really well! So it was ok, but I was Very glad when it was over, lol!
Kiley started Kindergarten this year and had her sixth birthday 2 days later. She is LOVING school! She had her Birthday at the club here on base and it was a lot of fun! I still can not believe she is 6 years old! She is back in Gymnastics and is really enjoying it. I went ahead and put her in the class with the first graders, which is definitely more challenging for her, but she was bored in the other class and she is learning SO many cool things in this one, so I think it was a good decision!
Brendan turned 3 in June and he is in Gymnastics too! This is the first year that he is on his own! He goes to the 3-5 year old class and he really enjoys it...it took him a class or 2 to want to go by himself, but now he is excited when they get to go. He is also going to a Baptist Pre-School here in town 2 days a week for 2 1/2 hours and he LOVES it! He has actually learned a lot and comes home everyday with something new to share, so that has been neat. We will probably take him out when Korry gets back, but just having that 5 hours a week has been good for both of us to have a little bit of a break and he loves it, so it has been a win win! ;o)
Bailey will be 5 months old tomorrow! That is so crazy! He had his 4 month appointment a few weeks ago and he was 16 lbs and in the 90th percentile! He rolls ALL over and is the happiest little guy you will ever meet! I am very excited for Korry to get home to share all his adorable little traits he has! He is an Amazing little guy!
Korry has been keeping himself busy. He started a course for his Master's Degree a few weeks ago and will start another one the first of October, so that will be nice to get a few outta the way before he gets home. He has been staying pretty busy. He works 6 1/2 days a week and tries very hard to work out everyday, so he tried to keep himself as busy as possible!
As for me, I have been keeping myself busy as well, lol! I try to work in Kiley's classroom as much as I can. I am going to start putting Fall and Winter clothes on e-bay this next week, so that will keep me busy in itself, lol! I have been trying to ride my bike a lot with the kids. I went and got a Bike trailer for 2 of them and then Kiley rides her own bike sometimes, but when we go on our Mile(S) rides, I have a seat on the back of mine as well that Kiley and Brendan "fight" and rotate over, lol! I am excited for Fall to get here because that means things are changing and moving closer to when Korry will get home! :o) I am in the middle of the Twilight books and I LOVE them! I think I will be sad when I get through with them! But they are really, really Great books! So that has been a lot of fun! We are excited for Halloween to get here. We already have the kids costumes! Kiley will be a Bee, Brendan will be a Spider and Bailey a Caterpillar. Kiley wants me to be the Butterfly, but we shall see, lol!
Anyway, that is our lives rolled up into a few paragraphs! I hope everyone has a Great rest of your weekend and summer. I will try to stay more on top of this thing, lol! :o) Good Night! :o)
