Is it bed time???

My son, who goes to bed at 8:00 on the dot every night, is wide awake at 9:15 PM...I am so tired, and I want to sleep!!! I put Rowan to bed, but got him back up after 35 minutes of crying and screaming...not sure what the deal is with this; maybe too much nap today???

Well, I have had a totally unproductive day, which is really nice! :-) Sometimes it is nice to just stay home; I will tell you a secret...I haven't even had a shower yet!!!!!!! Totally not my norm, but oh well, I don't even care! I used body splash, don't worry! lol

I got to talk to Jamie for a minute today; he called to tell me happy anniversary; between you and I, I think he forgot!!! I emailed him first thing today...I think this clued him in! LOL But yeah, pretty sure he forgot; since he is in Iraq, I may forgive him! :-)

Tonight I have been looking online for some house stuff. I have an empty house when we move in! All of our furniture is being held hostage in Germany by the damned Army, so I HAVE NOTHING!!! When I say nothing, I mean I will be moving in with our clothes...and that is IT! I have a crib for Rowan here at my aunt's house, but am hoping to be able to leave it here for when he sleeps over; I know he will! :-) I may end up taking it though. Some family has offered a few things, so here is what I may have:

crib and mattress for Rowan
king size mattress and box springs for our room
tv
some pots and pans
washer and dryer
refrigerator

here is what I still need:
a mattress and box springs for Kyle's room (I have his headboard here still)
white dresser for Ro's room
wood dresser for Kyle's room
headboard/foot board for our room
dresser for our room
kitchen table and chairs
book shelf for Rowan
microwave
coffee pot
kitchen towels and rags
bath towels and wash cloths
sofa/chair/love seat
end tables and coffee table
computer
computer table/desk and chair

I am sure I am forgetting a bunch of stuff. I hate this; we have beautiful, brand new stuff in Germany, and I WANT IT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hate that the Army is being so ridiculous about this! We are here, and our belongings should be here too. I am going to just get odds and ends for now, b/c once we get our stuff back, I will be giving all of this stuff away, back to the owners or selling it...we'll see. Any ideas? I checked Ebay and Craig's list, all of it is either ugly or too much money for what they are selling! HELP PLEASE, I don't want an empty house in August!!!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!

It is our third wedding anniversary today!!! Three years sure goes by fast, let me tell ya! Five years together, three years married, and a 13 month old...lol Of the three years, we have had about 8 months of togetherness...that's military life for ya!
Anyway, HAPPY ANNIVERSARY JAMIE!!!! Can't wait for you to get home so we can celebrate it. MMM, sure could go for a Crepe Susette (SP???) like last year's anniversary! MMM Germans sure do know how to make my taste buds tingle! LOL
Love you my love!

XOXOXO

Diaper dilemma?

Okay Mommies out there, this l'il Mama needs some advice! As my last post said, Rowan is taking his diapers off! He just woke up from a nap, and yep...he did it again! Does this mean he is ready for the potty, or is this just something he is doing b/c he CAN??? Help me out here ladies!!!
