Rubber Ducky your the one....









you make bath time so much fun. So John thought Cade had a massive assplosion when in all reality he only had a tiny "nugget" as he called it. So my theory is he is just taking after daddy with the silent but deadly gas attacks. So Cade went a few minutes with no diaper around the house before bath time. I was so worried he would pee everywhere. Luckily he didn't.

Today Cade and I went to Mommy and me on base today. We meet a few other mothers, about 5, with their kids ages 3 months to a year. It is every Monday and we plan on going next week too. I really enjoyed it and Cade did too. At he clingy to me, but not as much as I thought he would be. By the end he was chasing around a little chubby 8 month old girl there. It was really cute because they were actually following each other around. 

After that we came home, had lunch with John and then Cade took a nap while I was doing homework. 

Not much else is going on the rest of the week. Thursday is the utilities meeting which we are going too. They are going to start charging for utilities in the newly constructed and newly renovated homes. There will be a base line set and if you go above 5% you will have to pay the difference, but if you go below 5% you will get a refund (which I have heard of some families waiting 6 years for a refund!). We are concerned about our home. we have "newer windows and newer carpet", so are they defining us as newly renovated. They better not, or we will be moving off base with a bunch of other families. We are not paying this much to live in this crappy of a house when the fully remodeled or constructed are paying the same as us. We argue that we should actually be paying less since we live in the homes that are to be demolished before 2010. On other bases where they are redoing the homes, they actually lowered the rent because of construction. So we do not understand why they are not doing that for us. I love how people say that we are lucky having our housing payed for. Because we actually pay to live in crappy houses!
