Let's see where to begin....
We celebrated Baylee's first birthday last Saturday. I can't believe my baby is 1! They grow up so fast! We had a BBQ at our house and invited a few new friends over to help celebrate it. She LOVED her cake, but not as much as the ice cream. And with the help of her brothers she had no problems opening up all her presents. She had so much fun making a mess of the wrapping paper and throwing it across the room. Typical Baylee!
Kayden has been playing coach pitch baseball. He loves it and is an awesome player. Flag football sign-ups are coming up and Kayden is so excited! What can I say? Football is his sport. He got out of school last Friday which he is so happy about. He's worked hard this year and is an outstanding student!
Landon is really happy his brother is out of school. He loves playing with Kayden and I think he's pretty happy to have a buddy during the day. We're trying to get him into sports but out here he has to be 5 to play anything. We've thought about passing him off as a 5 year old. Apparently they have this thing called honesty, and when you're a parent you have to teach your kids all about it. So I don't think it'll fly. Unfortunately, all they have for him right now is ballet or gymnastics..... um no thanks!
Kim has been working a lot lately. This is the first weekend in a long time that he's had off. It's been a struggle for me to get adjusted to his work schedule. It's been very lonely. I was very spoiled at Luke because he was off at 3 and never had to work weekends. But I'll adjust, I always do. I guess that's part of being a military wife.
We miss you all and love you!

England
We've finally all made it to England and are getting our schedule back to normal.
The flight over here was great. It took a long time but that was the only down fall. The kids were amazing and behaved so well. I guess I shouldn't be too surprised they are pretty good kids.
Kayden has already made quite a few friends. He had his first sleepover in our new house. And just about everyday since we've been here he's been out playing football with all the boys in the neighborhood. Kayden started school yesterday and seems to be enjoying it. We live really close to the school so we're able to walk in the mornings.
Landon is enjoying himself too. He tags along with Kayden and seems to keep up with him just fine. He's missing Kayden a lot this week.
Baylee is doing great. She's still getting into everything but instead of my dads books she gets into the dog bowls. Oh well, what can I do? A little bit of dog food won't hury her right?
As for Kim and I we're just happy to be together again. The weeks that we were apart seemed like two Korea trips put together. It's been nice having everyone, including the dogs, together again.
I haven't really had the time to get outside the base yet. But so far I really like it here. The only down fall is the weather. But I've been told that the sun does come out in the summer time. So I'm hoping this year it will be unusually warm and sunny! :)
I miss you and love you all. I wish you all could move here with us. I feel like I'm already missing out on so much with Kiley having a baby and Lindsey and Kelsee getting married. But I've been told 4 years goes by really fast and we'll be home before we know it!
I'll put up pictures of the house and the kids this weekend.
Love you!
