Last Post from Belgium (for now)

Liam had a big day today. He has figured out how to drink from a straw! Actually, he’s probably been able to do that for some time, but I haven’t tried him on it for a month or two. He really loved his juicebox — so much, in fact, that he very [...]

The first half week.

So, the first three days of the USAF senior NCO academy are over. It’s the first class of this fiscal year, and there are something like 450 students in it. The class is broken up into 30 flights, or homerooms. I am in flight 30 (started in flight 17, but got moved [...]

Walking the Bear

Today, in preparation for Liam and me leaving the country next week, Meisje went to stay with a couple of our friends. As I was collecting her leashes, bowls, and toys, Liam took a fancy to one of the leashes and wanted to play with it. So I found a stuffed animal he [...]

Single Parenthood

It sucks. It really, really sucks. I think Liam has really begun to figure out that Jesse is gone, and as a result he’s acting pretty insecure. (sorry, J, not trying to make you feel bad. just telling it like it is.) He doesn’t want me more than two feet [...]

Picture of the Day

While Jesse is gone, I’m trying to post at least one pic a day of Liam for him. So you all get to benefit as well! The photo essay below doesn’t count, as those pics were taken a week or two ago, and J had already seen them.

Why is he standing on [...]

A Room with a View

A few weeks ago, our living room was over run with toys. And our sun porch was over run with spiderwebs. So I decided to turn the room into a play room for Liam and reclaim some “grown-up” space in the house. After settling the spiders in their new home (inside the [...]

Liam hams it up for the camera

Remember when I posted that it was quite difficult to get good pictures of Liam, as he kept trying to chase me down and grab the camera? Well, he still does that, but there are times when he’ll actually pose and cooperate…
sort of. Mom asked for a photo of Liam’s stuffed rabbit for [...]

Actually IN Ala-freaking-bama

Well, the trip yesterday was uneventful and long. But, I got here without too much trouble. Karena’s big suitcase got a bit damaged (one of the feet got cracked), but everything made it with me at least.
The room, though decent, has it’s faults. The bed must be queen sized, and they [...]

How was MY day?!

Well, I woke up at 5:30AM to take Jesse to the airport. It took two hours and fifteen minutes to make what should have been an hour-long trip. Goodbyes were said. Maybe I even cried. Then Liam and I were back on the road for the hour and a half trip [...]
