well i heard from james yesterday and it was really NICE!!! we talked a good 30 mins and just to hear his voice ...u just dont know how wonderful it was.....anyway, he is doing fine but he said he was really lonely for his family.....he said he just thinks about us all the time...he gave me a list of everything he did while the were still in KUWAIT and he is just bored.....he longs to hear from family & friends via mail or email.....he just thinks about us all day long as we do here back at home...i am going to send him as MANY calling cards as i can get for him because that cost soooo much! i actually called ATT and they said that the calling cards at the PX are the best price and rate!! he bought a card that had 300 mins for $20 + and it only has 80 international minutes...he was pretty ticked!! and if you think about how LITTLE 80 mins is when talking to love ones.....anyway, i am going to get him some more from here...anyway, he is doing great just ready to start his mission GOD WILLING at camp bucca and no where else!! he is still in KUWAIT and should be leaving this week to camp bucca...

well onto family issues...all is well here at our home....my MIL left this weekend so we are on our own again! i still can't lift matthew but with the nurse leaving at 7:30pm, matthew is in his crib and just relaxing until he is ready for bed. on wed, i won't have anyone so he will be in his crib for a lONG TIME unless i just take a chance and carry him down. i think i can do that but i KNOW i can't lift him INTO the crib!! i SHOULD have a night nurse that comes in at 5 pm so that should be taken care of! i have had a couple of appointments today...one was a the ARD meeting at the elementary school for MATHTEW so he could get his homebound teacher started...i am soooo happy andexcited for him!! he is going to be one BUSY guy ( not that we are not already!) on TUE and THUR he a OT/PT/ST all in a row that last for 2 hrs 15 mind total! and then he will have a teacher for at least 1 hour up to 4 times a week! i am soooo excited! well, then later today i had our weekly appt with JOSHUA'S dr for a wt check! last week, at 3 days he was 5 lbs13 oz, at 5 days he was 5 lbs 6 oz and at 6 days he was 5 lbs 13oz and at 10 days he was 6 lbs 1 oz and today at 16 days he was 6 lbs 8 oz!!! so we are in the CLEAR!!! we don't have to be back until he is 2 months old for shots!! not that i am looking forward to that but at least he is GROWING! he looks sooooo cute and he is such a CUTIE PIE! and his eyes are BEAUTIFUL!! i just love glazing into them....i sure wish james was here cause he is such a WONDERFUL daddy that i KNOW he would be all over him....anyway, the boys are doing fine and they are also just loving on joshua!

AT&T is a rip-off, tell your husband to use the DSN lines. Dial 312-835-9870, wait for the dial tone, then press "7" for one full second. When you hear another dial tone, simply dial the 800 number on any calling card and you get minute for minute, just like you were in the States. I used this same method when I was in Bucca. Hope it works OK for you.
