We finally made the leap!

For all of you who have been asking about "our blog," here it is.  No promises on how fancy this will become, but it will give us the chance to stay in touch with all our family and friends.  We are doing well.  Adjusting to our families latest changes.  
It was hard to leave Phoenix and all the wonderful friends we made there.  I must be honest though, because each night I watch the news and see the weather, I don't miss Phoenix at all.  We will see how I feel about that in December.  Brandon however, is missing the lake and the heat.  I think he's crazy.  We have made it two months being separated and have only ten more to go.  Can't really say that time has flown by, but it continues to move forward and we like that.  Brandon has settled into his life in Korea and Addison and I are enjoying our time with Grandpa and Grandma while he is gone.  The stay at home mom life has been a pretty easy transition for me and I find myself thinking at the end of the day "what did I accomplish 
today?"  We keep busy.  Brandon is loving the weather in Korea right now, NOT, the humidity is killing him along with his twenty or so mosquito bites.  I think he is enjoying the bachelor life a little more than he lets on.  I know he misses us a ton, but sleeping in on the weekends and off diaper duty for twelve months can't be too bad.  Speaking of diaper duty, that is my latest challenge.  Addi has absolutely no interest in the potty.  We have bribed her with toys, candy and even let her pick out her own potty, but still she says, "I don't want to be a big girl."  Therefore, I am patiently waiting for that miraculous morning she wakes up and says that she wants to go in the potty.  We'll see, my wish hasn't come true yet.
Other than that, life is good.  Same stuff, different day.

So you will get hooked on the blogging thing sooner than you realize and spend way too much time on the computer. Hope you aren't too sunburned. We had a great time and Isaac slept for 3 hours!
