A quick update

Well lets see a lot has happened for Jeremy, Thaddeus and myself.
* August 11 -- Thaddeus and I flew from Boston to Chicago in first class due to itinerary changes. Ended up leaving Chicago two hours late due to a landing gear door malfunction. Found that people are more than willing to jump in help you out at the airport when you have a little one. I had a wonderful woman and her daughters jump in and help me get from one gate to the next in Chicago. I was a bit stressed with a stroller a carry on on wheels, another carry on duffle bag, diaper bag, and small cooler for the breast milk. Then at the gate to get on the plane in Chicago a wonderful couple jumped in and helped me to get on the plane by taking the carry on bag and put it up above in the overhead storage. Then when we landed the same couple pulled my bag down for me, and I suspect they are the ones who opened up the stroller for me. Then I think I was taking to long to get off the plane as one of the crew who cleans the plane helped me to get off the plane and then one of the stewardesses helped me with my bags to get off the breezeway. That same day Jeremy left for Portland, ME to head off to Basic Training. the first 3 or 4 days we were able to talk on the phone, then he was done with processing and is now full fledge basic, he was able to call yesterday and had 4 minutes to talk.

Since Thaddeus and I have been home we have traveled to Tacoma to have lunch with a friend, surprised another friend before she left for Mexico with the youth from her church for a short mission trip. We have been blessed to go to dinner with another friend before she leaves tomorrow for S.Korea to teach english for a year. Went to the Kitsap Modern Mom's meet up group where her got to meet a lot of friends. Has gone with his grandma to go shopping, and to the sewing chicks for a surprise baby shower that was thrown for grandma for him.

Well that is the quick update, will post some pictures in a few days once I get them all transfered to the computer.
