Hi everyone.  We have some big news for you!!!!  Rob picked up Warrant Officer last week.  That means he’ll actually get promoted on Feb 1st next year.  This was the first time he applied for it, and to get it on your first try is a really big deal.  We are very proud of him!  What this means for us is that he’ll leave for school at the end of February for about 3 months.  His two schools are in Virginia and Maryland.  Since I don’t want to stay in Idaho without him, Damian and I will go live with my dad and step mom in Pennsylvania while Rob is in school.  Living there means we’ll only be about 2 1/2 hours away from Rob, and we’ll be able to see him on the weekends.  After he graduates from his school near the end of May, we’ll get orders to our new home.  Chances are, we’ll get stationed in California, right outside of San Diego.

As if that weren’t enough good news… we’re expecting another baby!!!!!  We just found out this weekend, and according to the doctors we’re about 6-8 weeks along!  They have us estimated to deliver around May 1st.  Damian’s original due date was May 3rd!!!   I’ll be having an ultrasound this week to get a more exact idea of everything… and will update the website with the news… as well as some new pictures.
