Tis the season for a cold...

...ALL YEAR here in England.  William is still getting over his cold while passing it along to both Tom and I.  Luckily Tom did not get as sick as the two of us did.  Too bad there aren't any sick days for stay at home moms.  I'll have to work on that idea.  (wink)  Anyway, I think the worst of it is over and we're on the mend.  The doctors and other people we've talked to basically told us that this is the norm.  We just have to expect that children are basically sick all year long.  So bring on the tylenol!

I suppose it's been a while since our last post just after Beth and Elise were here.  Not much has changed.  We still don't have our own internet (a few more weeks).  Probably about the time we get our furniture and HHG (household goods) shipment we'll have everything else up and running.  We'll just have to see.  We'd hate to have things drug out into April - - especially with William's birthday coming up (April 12th).  

William has been more interested in walking as of late so we've been taking a few steps with him here and there.  He actually was using a walk-behind at the neighbors and just kept going.  Tom and I couldn't believe it.  I wanted to cry!  It's been hard to realize that my baby is a toddler now....:(  

We've figured out that William and the new baby will be 18 months apart.  Which reminds me, we have an OB appt on the 18th.  It doesn't sound like they'll do an ultrasound right away like we had with William.  More like a class of some sort to teach me what I need to be doing right now.  Things are so much different in military hospitals....paper work galore and wait wait wait.

Well that's about all for now.  Hope you are all doing well!
