Deployment Notes


1.11.14 |  Steve set off in his Expedition for a deployment to Fort Hood in Texas.  We have been getting things in order for this for a few months and the now time has come!  Hopefully we are ready for the long haul.

1.12.14 |  Steve's home away from home - a Holiday Inn room.



1.15.14 |  Steve is still able to with homework via a phone call and FaceTime.


1.17.14 |  Getting up early has probably been the hardest adjustment for me ... definitely still not a morning person.



1.20.14 |  We stopped by Build-a-Bear to make army bears to snug with - the kids are missing having dad at home.




1.28.14 |  18 days after his departure - Steve was finally certified to be a doctor on the base!!  I guess that is what "Army Time" looks like.  This means the days actually start to count towards the '90 days' now.   The inefficiency has caused me a lot of frustration and anxiety about how things are going to work out.  On the bright side Connie is here helping us out - and we have gotten into a pretty good routine so hopefully now I can calm down a little.
