So it's done
It's done. We submitted our "wish list" to uncle sam. Now it's in his/their hands for a month until we find out what nice or not so place we end up living. We took pretty much everything into consideration. We rated deployments, housing, job opportunities for me, family nearness, attractions, climate/temperature...all those things. We rated those in importance and then the answers were weighed. Our top 5 include: Alaska, Colorado Springs, Hawaii, Kentucky, Savannah, and El Paso. We changed up our list at the last minute in order after some serious talks about his job in certain areas and what we really wanted in life. We could get our first choice, our last, or even something that is not on our preference list that there are like 30 slots for (Ah....silly unwanted Fort Hood-where we just moved from). So we'll see but it's nice to be over and done with. We didn't have a great selection to choose from but I'm happy with what we did choose.
Our neighbors that we loved so much in the beginning? Got a 4 bedroom house and are now moving out. Blah. They do have 3 kiddos and one more on the way. But still we actually liked these guys. Oh well, *sigh*. Tomorrow is the big day I take little man to the doctor for his well baby checkup, and shots. It prolly will be a really hard, long weekend. Poor guy. Last time he got the shots he SOBBED for hours afterwards, then screamed for days because he didn't feel well. We're armed with tylenol and Motrin ready to go! I can't wait to see how big he is now..that will definetly be fun.
Okay. Tyke is screaming...ta ta!
