Well we are almost to the 2 weeks mark. I'm starting to make a list of things that need to be done before homecoming. I've gotten a few things done already. I like to be extra prepared so I'll probably get everything done next week and then have the week before he gets here for little details and just to relax so I don't go crazy. Once this next week is over Cody will be moving to a "safer" area and will begin his travels toward Germany so really one more week of actual stress and worry and then he will be safer. Chloe has really gone off the deep end. She did so good until Cody came home for r&r and once he left she has just gone wild. I don't think there has been one day that she hasn't gone in the house.... She just cries a lot and just seems bummed. The weather has been bummed lately to so we can't get out for a walk so she's ruffing it right now, but she will get back to normal once things are normal here. It's so great here on post, everyone has their signs out and flags and it's just so patriotic around here and I LOVE IT! Just needing my hubby, as we all want him home :) YAY.

Today has been a day. My goodness. It's getting closer and closer to Cody coming home and the closer it gets the worse I get. It's not something I can really explain. Guys are already coming home and I'm seeing them in church and I have friends that have their husbands coming home and it's just so hard. Cody is extremely tired and ready to come home. I'm just to the end and ready for him to come home. We are both soooooooooo excited but the anxiousness is overwhelming. And of course Chloe senses my anxiety so she is acting like a dog who has not training, forgets she is house trained and destroys my inside plants. I am getting to where it's almost time to start getting things ready for Cody's homecoming so I'm trying to focus on that so I won't feel overwhelmed by the stress. Staying busy helps me so much. I'm wanting to do so many little detailed things so he will have the best homecoming welcome ever! I can't say on here because Cody reads this (hehe hi babe) but I'm so looking forward to taking pictures and just celebrating us being whole again. I'm so glad for you all (our families) to have peace knowing that he is home and getting to talk to him again. We have 28 days until we can fully breath again!!! I'm so ready for that day!! We will be coming to Oklahoma at the end of June through July so we are both very excited to see everyone!!!! I was driving yesterday and saw a man fishing and I started crying. This was a HUGE sign that I'm homesick... haha. Ready to see my husband and ready to see our families!!! :)

It's been a crazy week. My friend's baby had to be admitted to the hospital. The lovely Germany doctors told her after 2 days that nothing was wrong just to give her nose drops. So then my friend just had a gut feeling something was really wrong and took her into the clinic on post to see the Pediatrician and found out that her baby has the croop (not sure how to spell that). So lovely health care here in Germany. I got to go flower shopping which was extremely fun and this weekend it is supposed to be in the 70s so I'll get to plant them and work outside. The Post has also opened a dog park which we all have been waiting on for over 2 years now. I took Chloe there today. She ran and ran and ran and played. It's a good place to meet people and for Chloe to make new friends. Cody is doing well. There is some sickness going around, they are calling it the plague. So far he has avoided it, hoping and praying he doesn't get sick. We are just waiting now for him to come home. So can't wait for that day!!!! :) Missing you all and we are both ready to make it back to Oklahoma and visit with everyone!
