Catching Up

So it's been a while since I posted:( We have been so busy! We are moved into our house on base, and I LOVE it! We still have some unpacking and setting up to do, but it'll get done eventually. Choo has started posting out:( So we can only do so much on the days he is home. Today we have to fix the fence, go grocery shopping, and get the basement where you can get down there.

It's so HARD to keep the house clean, Caitlyn just drags stuff out as soon as you put it up. It's so aggravating. So the only time I have a clean house is at night! For the past 2 weeks Caitlyn is not sleeping. She doesn't go to bed till 1am, and then wakes up all night. Last night was the first night she actually went to sleep, and guess what freaking happened, the stupid fire alarms randomly go off 4 times! We had to call maintenance, who was here putting new ones in till 1230. Oh how crazy my life is.

Monday is a SUPER BUSY day. I hope that Choo can get out of pt. We have Caitlyn's 18 month check up, my first OB appointment, and wic! Wic is a walk-in, so it's gonna take all day:( I'm not looking forward to it at all. I hate having to be completely busy. I'm not sick as much anymore. Thank God for Zofran. It has been a miracle!

Anyway, todays a busy day, so I must get off here:)

So Choo and I got some exciting news last night. We'll share them with you all in a few days. And we're finally back on our feet financially! I can't thank God enough for everything he has done for us in just 1 day! I have an AMAZING daughter who is my LIFE! And an AMAZING husband who stands beside me and supports me no matter what! :)

We wen't and got our winter clothes yesterday and I even got some CUTE snow boots!!! Choo HATES them. Haha. Today we're going furniture shopping! I'll be so HAPPY to have a matching living room set!! Choo is recovering fast from his wisdom teeth being taken out. Caitlyn is teething her bottom left molar, then all her molars will be in! She's growing up SO FAST!!

Cold, Rain, and Mud!




It's been a cold, rainy, and YUCKY past couple of days. And Harley loves playing in mud! Great right?! Not so great! Muddy paw prints all over my floors!

Anyway. It's been cold. I'm in my hoodie and sweat pants and still cold! Baby girl is coming down with a cold I think. Not too sure yet. But I did give her cold medicine last night and this morning she seems to be doing better. She has such an amazing personality! Right now she is sitting on the couch with her blanky reading a book and watching tv!

Yesterday Harley got out of the fence. (Choo left the gate open) I had him and Elvis outside and Harley took off around the corner. And I started hollering for Choo to grab him (he was cutting up boxes on the side of the house) and he got by Choo, as soon as Choo called him he took off like a Rocket literally and he never stopped. Choo had to chase him at least 9 blocks! He ran all the way to the river! Then this morning I took the dogs out and Harley tried to take off AGAIN!! I chased him to the gate (I didn't want him to jump it). I had to chase him in the RAIN in my SOCKS through the MUD!!! I am so angry with him!!! And Elvis is just digging himself deeper and deeper in the hole he's in. I took them out and he came right in a pooped in the floor! Can you believe that. Oh he's in some serious trouble. So back to his crate he went!

Anyway I think today is a day for hot chocolate and cuddling on the couch with baby girl!

OH and we got to sign the papers for the housing inspection today!! YAY!!!

just an update:)





Sorry I haven't been updating lately, things have been hectic in the Houchins' household!

On Tuesday Choo got all FOUR wisdom teeth cut out at one time. Poor thing has been miserable. And his pain pills make him sleep all the time. He got to stay home till Friday then he had to go back to work:(.

We also found out that finance over paid us ALOT because they wouldn't update his address until our travel voucher went through. So they never notified us and this next check is 400 dollars SHORT!!! That will make us in the hole after bills are paid. So we went to talk to them and got the rest on a payment plan and they can't do anything about the 400. And they also gave us a PCS loan to get us through until the next check, and our travel voucher is "SUPPOSED" to post this week, but they haven't approved our DITY move yet.

I'm excited to move on base here in the next couple of weeks! But we have so much to do and so little time! And we have to clean the carpets because the 4-legged children we own are playing who's the dominant one! UGHHH.

Which leads me to another point, we got a new dog! He's a Husky. We changed his name from Apollo to Harley, he responds so much better now. Harley's such a good dog! But he's still in a puppy stage and chews stuff up! AND he freaking RIPS the HEADS off of their toys!!! And he eats them!!! I have NEVER seen a dog do that in my life! At first he didn't get along good with Elvis, but now they are in-separable.

Caitlyn has started talking more, she winks, and spins in circles making herself dizzy! I can't believe how much she has grown in just a month. She can't fit most of her clothes that we brought from home:( And she's on the fast track to a size 6 shoe!!! So I'm taking clothing donations for her 18-24 month, and shoes size 6:) Haha.

Ok, I've been on here long enough, I'll try to update more. Love to you all!
