Not-so-bad Doctor

Today was my first doctor's appointment. It was at 7:30 am so I really didn't have a whole lot of time to dread it. Turns out it was fine-I like my assigned OB and I think I will have a much better experience at this hospital than at the one in which the Orclette was born. Later on this afternoon I have an ultrasound, which the doctor was most anxious for me to have since it appears the child #2 is in a breech position. As I still have 2.5 weeks to go this is not entirely worrisome. Of course I'd have much preferred him/her to be in the correct position already ... You know, other than doctor's appointments I think our life is even more boring than it was before we went on our SC trip. Of course that will change, and change soon ... but it's so boring in the meantime. I did find a little park near our apartment complex that the Orclette can play on.

And I've talked & texted Damm everyday. So it really isn't that bad. And he is still gung-ho about joining the military so that is extremely comforting. Just as I said, the first day back is the hardest. Our daily routine has yet to be re-established and we're entering into the waiting period for child#2. Once he/she gets here and I'm able to start going to the gym again (that being a fixe

On the Road Again

We dropped Damm off at Ft. Gordon Sunday midday then took off back towards Texas. From what he's since told me his AIT should be relatively laid-back compared to basic. He has his phone, his laptop, and it looks like he can use them during personal time. In fact, the NCO's are only going to care if, as Damm says, "Our shit isn't together." He's hoping to have access to the nice library on the base and he's concerned he'll gain weight back because he's heard the food is really good. Now I have an Orclette draped over me and typing is becoming really hard.
