After we got home from church we ate some food. Then I started to make Ryleighs Halloween custome. I made it so fast that I decided to make Dustin one also. I think they turned out so quite. So I put both of them in the customs and took pictures. They might not be as excited tomorrow. Of course I have to wait until I develop them for you to get the pictures.

Today the day started out with Dustin chocking on a piece of sausage. That was so scary. I Had to give him the hymlick(spelling) I stood him up and pushed on his chest once and it popped out. Thank the lord that I went to child CPR classes. I spent the first part of the day scrubbing my kitchen. After mopping the floor a couple weeks in a row it never looked good. So I decided to get on my hands a knees. I thought that the brown spots were part of the color of the floor. I was wrong. It was six years of renters embedded into the floor. Now the floor looks so good I don't think it needs to be replaced. My arm has been is spasms for the last couple of hours. After I finished the floor we took Raleigh and Dustin to the running track on base and Raleigh ran and walked a mile. She did not want to stop. She wants to be a ghost for Halloween. So Ry and I went and bought some stuff to make the costume. She seems to be really excited. I don't think that she will be as happy when she has to go up to the door and Say trick or treat. But we will find out.

Dustin walked all the way to the park, with Ryleigh and I. It was so cute every time he heard music, as the cars passed by. He would move his head. He has mad skills when it comes to rythem. The weather was really cold this week. So yesterday was the first day that the baby's got to go out and play. The other days they went to McDonalds play place. So they were happy to get out, and get dirty.

I have gone jogging eight days in a row. And I have lost five pounds. I took Ryleigh out to play. After about an hour she told me she wanted to go home. That is not like her. So of course I am happy to go. So on the way home she said, They(the other kids) said she could not play, and that she bumped her head. Ryleigh said, they were not my friends. Sooo sad:( Not a good way to end play time. So she came home and played with her brother. We are trying to decide what the baby's are going to be for Holloween. This will be Ryleighs first year going.

We started the day out around 10:ooam. I took the baby's to the Mcdonalds play place. Ryleigh met a little girl there. They played and played. I talked to he mom Donna I think that we hit it off. I may have found my first friend. Dustin just ran from one side of the play place to the other. He is not big enough to climb up. He had fun anyway. By the time I got home. (only a five minute drive.) They were both asleep. Today was dee's first day of school. So he had a little time to get homework done.

Thursday I enlisted for another year, We will see how this year goes. After I enlisted we took the kids to the Ocean. Ryleigh loved it Dustin had a hard time keeping his balance. As the wave receded he thought that he was moving so he lost his balance. He got wet and was apprehensive about the water the rest of the time. Today I went to Guard drill. There are only two girls in the unit. I'm the second one. The said, that they have a couple people deployed, But the voluntarily went. So if everything works out I won't have to go anywhere. After I got home dee went out to play a round.
The picture was just cute so I had to put it in. Peanut the inside horse.

You should have seen how cute my little boy was at the golf course today. He seemed very interested in the putter. I got some good pictures of Ryleigh and Dustin trying to figure it out. We just got the title of the Harley in the mail today so we went and got it registered. Now it is legal again. So Dee took it for a ride and enjoyed every minute of it. As soon as I get the pictures burned to a picture CD I will post them.

I got another call from the Air force today. Because I only have four months of my enlistment, in order for them to be able to accept me. I have to enlist for a minimum of a year. If I don't my condition release expires on the 31st of Oct. Then the state of AZ. will have to discharge me. I'm not sure if it would be an honorable one. I'm don't know what to do. Will I get lucky for one more year and not be sent over seas? I love my job in the military, but not as much as I love my baby's. However I always saw myself retiring from the Air force at the age of 40. I'm almost halfway to retirement. I don't have much to report on the family side. We do the same thing everyday.

Today I mowed the lawn. That is one thing about Tucson I will miss. We did not have a lawn. But we did have a lawn mower. Now we have a front and backyard full of grass. I don't mind doing it. I like to do the outside work. After I finished I took a nap. Dustin was up at 4:00am. After watching the College football games we went to the grocery store and did some shopping as a family. We did not save any money. I don't know how to save the way that Devanie does.

Today was I got to sleep in. Dee let me sleep untill 11:30. We did not go to bed untill after 3:ooam. What a good guy. After I woke up Dee and I put Ryleigh's new bed together. It is so big that she needs a step stool to climb onto it. Both of the baby's are doing better with their colds. Dustin was finally able to sleep for more then one hour. I also have a picture of the baby's that is only a couple of weeks old. So I thought I would make an entry.
I got a call back from my recrueter here in georgia. He said it looks like he will have no problem gettin me in over here. That means that my search for a job is over. Today Ryleigh went to the golf course with her dad for the first time. He said, that she just shagged balls for him. He just chipped and putted. Dustin stayed home with me. He has a runny nose. I brought the cold back from Hawaii for him and Ry. This is Dustins first cold. He is a grump.

Today the man of the house returns.
I think I have a job until the end of December. That is perfect, because Dee finishes his degree that month. Today is supposed to start the diet for the man of the house and I. We have a lot to live healthy for. Plus now we have no reason not to go to the gym. We live to close to the gym on base, and one of the benefits of being military is the free access to the gym. So here is a picture that is hopefully our last fat picture.

I have had some serious jet lag.
I just got use to the east coast time zone, when I left for Hawaii. That was a six hour time zone change, in the other direction. Maybe I will have a Chance to let my poor beat up body to get settled. The baby's had a great time with their granny. It was amazing, after 10 day's I thought that my baby's would forget how we looked. Guess what? Dustin was clinging onto our legs in just minutes after we got home. Ryleigh was very happy to see mom and dad. She won't let us out of our sight. Dee took his mother back up to KY. He will be back on Tuesday. So it is just me and my baby's. I have not been without Dee for over Two months. This is the first time in our marriage that we have seen each other everyday for over Two months, without having to work. It was nice to have the vacation. Now that it is over the hunt for a job is on. So wish me luck.

Guess what? We're back.
We had a great trip. We got to see Dee's son Ross play Football. They got a chance to catch up. Ross is just like his dad. They have the same quiet, protective, professional attitude. It was nice to see them together. Dee is a proud father. We saw a lot of good stuff. We went to pearl harbor. We saw five movies they were all good. We took a drive around the island. We watched Surfers surf. I got to open an oyster. I picked one that had two pearls in it. I made them into earrings for Ryleigh. Well I will tell you all more later.
