BIG NEWS!

So if ya'll have heard. Corey and I are house owners! Heres the details: Its a 3bdr 2 full bath, ranch style home with an attached garage. its 1700sqft. Not much of a backyard. and its a NEW house just finished right before we saw it. The only thing we have to do with it, is grow grass and put up a privacy fence. We'll get the keys on April 20th!!! and we're offically living OFF post on april 27th. it is all exciting and scary all at once. I'll have pics of the house up either tonight or tomorrow night. Other news, Ryan ate his 1st real dinner plate of table food. It was good ol' roast beef, potatoes, and carrots. He loved it he also loves to drink out of his sisters sippy cups instead of his. so i might just have to use those instead for him. just watch him for spills. Corey is in school right now, some school you have to go to after you make SGT. He has been gone there for a while. but gets to stop by every now and then since the school is on post. He gets a day and half off on the weekends if their work is done. Isabell has been having more days of accidents with potty training, it might be bcuz i'm busy running around cleaning and packing too. Ryan is crawling, and pulling himself up so much. hes even walking along the couch sometimes. Well i think thats the update heres more pics!

Update on the kids

If you've heard Ryan is crawling! I offically have two kids now! He gets into everything, follow's me around. Eats paper, that seems to be his fav. thing to get ahold of. Bugs the crap out of Isabell. He's always trying to steal the toy shes playing with. Oh boy do i have my hands full now! Isabell is also doing great with her potty training 2 days straight and no accidents! Here is a video of Ryan crawling and a couple new pictures i took.

The other day was a nice day about 69 degrees! i wanted to put shorts on! I decided to get a couple people together and go to the park to get outta the house! Well Isabell loved it and also Ryan. Isabell buddy since birth got to come to Aiden. heres a couple pictures from that day also

New things for Corey!

As you can see Corey was offically pinned as Sgt McCourt, Isabell and I was lucky enough to be able to pin him. Isabell had a very bad head cold, and it was 9AM. So she wasn't as thrilled as I was to pin him. Hopefully after Oct after him being in for 4yrs and well after 6months of getting his E-5 he will be able to try for his E-6. Which knowing how well of a soldier he is, he should be getting it. Other than news of us moving, it's pretty much a waiting game. If Corey stays in the Dog unit we we'll stay here for atleast another 2yrs. If he wants to go Speacial Forces, we'll move in maybe a year. And there are other options he's willing to try. and one of them is Recruiting, if he does that the last time we talked about it, he didn't have a choice of the city but i think the regin. We'll see where that could move us... Maybe back to michigan?!
Ta-Da! Corey got a bike. Something he's always wanted. Its a harley-davidson bike. A Sportser (if i spelled it right) He just got it plated and went for the written test to get his motorcycle license.

Isabell and Ryans Doctor's visit

Isabell is: 27lbs and 34 inches tall!

Isabell had her 2nd doctor's appt. i still can't believe that she is two! i still remember giving birth to her, and her 1st day home. i remember the 1st time she crawled, said "dada" (ah course it was dada and not mama, hehe) and when she took her 1st steps and made me cry. She is the best child ever! and so beatiful! Well the doctor said everything was good, she was a motor mouth. (just like her mama) Her hemangioma (kind of like a birth mark) is right on track, its getting smaller everytime they see it. It should be completely level with her flesh my age 10. For those who haven't seen it i'll take a picture of it to show you. She is very tall for her age. but her weight is perfect. Oh guess what!!! Isabell is in underwear during the day now!!! she still wears diapers at night for protection. i'll start limiting her liquids at night soon thou. She mostly takes a nap during the day, but protests them alot.

Ryan is 16lbs 6ozs and 26inches long

Ryan at his 6months appt. He is average for height and weight. but you see he went to the doctors about a month ago, and has gained ALOT of weight since then. he feels and looks munch heavier than 16lbs. The doctor said everything was fine, and hes doing great on his development. Today ryan is eatting some table foods. he gets very upset if your eatting and not sharing, hehe. he can sit up without support. go from sitting to his belly and back to a sitting position. He is saying "dada" and "mama" and other babbling stuff. He wants to crawl so bad but just can't get it. he pushes himself backwards instead.

Corey just got his paperwork saying he's an offical SGT!!! We still don't know when he will be getting pinned. but i will def. put pictures up when that is done. Heres the lastest family photo. We've been busy unpacking, and trying to get into the swing of a schedule. but once the house is back to normall i'll have to take pictures to show it off.

thats all for now. love ya!

Update On Ryan!

Ryan finially went for his 6month well baby check up. The Doctor said he is doing good. He is 16lbs 6ozs 26in long. He is barely at the 50% line for his age, but he is growing at his own rate. Which the Doctor's says is fine. He didn't get his shots thou just yet. We just need to wait a lil bit. with his 4month shots not being done till the end of december. Other than that, he is eatting more table food. LOVE cherrios, and will throw a fit if your eatting infront of him and are not sharing, hehe.

Gotta Start SomeWhere

Well Corey is offically home now!!! He does not have to go back overseas anytime soon. As of right now. Also he is a SGT now!!! i am so proud of him. Isabell is loving having her Daddy home, and Ryan is really taking to him. Isabell and Ryan both have doctor's appt's so i'll be updating the blog when they go. so you can see how much they've have grown. On the 12th Corey and I plan on coming up to Michigan for 2wks for Corey's leave. Oh, and Corey got a new Truck. Its an '06 Ford F150. I love it and so does Corey.
