Thanks Beckym, we think she's kinda cute too LOL.....And I can't wait to see those babies either. They moved up the due date for Chris and Jennifer from 12/12 to 10/31 and they might even induce her earlier. The baby is already 7/14 so I'm guessing they don't think she can deliver a bigger baby. Better to know that now than after 30 hrs of labor haha. I wouldn't know about that, Chris was 9/15 (10lbs in my book) and we at the hosp 58 min and he was born LOL
Have a great day ladies!!

Welcome Angel did you get to go to PIR?? Give us the scoop where ya from? LOL. srm he should be able to start writing letters now if he is that kinda kid. Mine never wrote so I just kept on writing to him alot. I knew to expect no letters from him. Lynda is probably the most seasoned navy mom on this group she has alot of answers to many questions. My son is also stationed at a NAS like lisa's son but mine is in ca. Lisa what a beautiful grand child!! cna't wait to see pics of all the new grandkids tht are on the way.

Hello hesmyrock!! and welcome.....LS can do a multitude of jobs. Chirs is Navy for just 3 years now and also went to A school in Meridian. He is stationed on an air base in jacksonville, FL. His job is to order all parts that the mechanics need to make those planes fly. Sometimes they're board ship, or subs. etc. Depending on I'm not sure what. Chris really enjoys what he does and above all it's a very important job, no matter where they are or what they are doing. Also in is a great link to new horizons........So welcome aboard, I don't know a whold lot of what goes on but between us all we're glad to be here for you :)

becky m - Just the 4 little lines on the form letter. He starts his 4th week at boot camp today - but I am not sure if it is week 4 or 3 of training. I think it took a while to get his division full.
