What!?! Germany!?!

Hello all. I havent written in a few days or so. Nothing exciting has really been going on. Same ol' stuff. Hanging around the house. Connor had his two year check up the other day. I really need to find the boys a good pediatrician around here. Right now they go to the base hospital/clinic. Thats who we were assigned when we moved here, its a family practice clinic. Well I dont like them. Most of them are PA's...and while I dont have a problem with that. These are little children who really should see someone with more experience with kids and someone they can build a relationship with. We never know which doc we might see when we go in. Anyways, So Connor is a few months late on his 2 year check up, which is no biggie. But he weighs in at 28.9 lbs. He's in the 49th percentile for his age. He is 37 inches tall now, which is around the 87th percentile for his age. Hes going to be tall and skinny. Completely different that his big brother. Cohen is 3 years and 9 months and he had a doctors appointment last week and while they were there, I asked them to check his height and weight. He is 50 lbs and thats about 95th-97th percentile for his age and he is 42 inches tall which runs the same 97th percentile. These percentages mean that they are bigger than that amount of children their age. Cohen has always been bigger than most kids his age. So thats, that. Both boys are healthy. Connor did leave the doc with some antibiotics for an ear infection he was starting to get. We didnt even know about it. He seems to be acting normal, just gets to take meds a couple of times a day.

Okay...Here is some important stuff. Matt and I have been discussing my schooling, his schooling, and everything in between. A little background info. We moved to Missouri for Matt to be a Drill SGT from Germany. We have been here a little over a year now. He was supposed to go to Drill school about 4 or so months after we got here, in the mean time he would be "turtling". Sorta like job shadowing. Well his date was cancelled and rescheduled for a later time. No biggie. He went to school in South Carolina and was there a few days, but didnt pass the PT test. Its so many sit ups, push ups, and a run. Well he missed the sit ups by like 4. So they sent him home. Well he has been here since then. He finally has a new date coming up in April. So this whole year he has been turtling and his drill time hasnt started. Once he goes to school, he has to be a drill for at least 2 years. Well for whatever reason, the Army says he is kind of wasting time here, so they are looking at moving him back to his Infantry job. So yesterday, I am completing my school application and filling out essay questions when Matt gets home from work....He asks what I am doing and I tell him. He asked if I could go to nursing school anywhere, or is that program just here. I said well I could go anywhere, but this certain program is just at this school. There are nursing programs everywhere though. He said he was talking to one of the guys and trying to get info, but his school date is probably getting cancelled in April and they will be moving us to a different base. Okay, so this is information I NEED to know. Im not about to shell out 145.00 for an application fee and testing fee if Im not attending. He said he would find out more when he goes back to work. Well today, he just sent me a text and asked how i felt about going back to Germany....and if I would go with him back. Thats a huge decision for me...and him. They have an open slot for him available if he wants it in Baumholder, Germany. We would probably leave around September or so. I just am soooo torn now. I have A LOT to think about. Wow, I was not expecting to ever go back overseas again. Its so amazing there, and I love it there. But its soo far from home. Ive never been to Baumholder. I know a little about it. I know they deploy a lot. So thats something else I need to think about. I do not want to be in Germany for a year or so when I could be home. And trying to fly home to see family with two boys and two dogs will just about be impossible by myself. UGH!! I just dont know.
