Jeremy's first unit that we've been a part of for 6 months now, is quite fun. He's the lowest ranking officer and so he gets all the jokes and what not. It's actually kind of funny. You get to be the butt of all the jokes, not as a reflection on whether or not they like you, but it's just a matter of being the lowest/newest one there. Nothing personal. :) One of the office jokes is about how many kids he has. The joke was that he probably has a fat wife, because she's had so many kids, and they thought that was pretty funny he (Jeremy) being so skinny and his wife so fat. Well, I did get to prove them wrong :P and they all actually quite like us. So it's good.

Promotion!
Jeremy made his first promotion in the army! He's now a 1st Leiutenant (the step up from 2nd Leiutenant)! For non-army people, let me explain- this is an automatic promotion, you get it pretty much as long as you stick in the army for a couple years and don't do anything real stupid. lol! It's called the wife's promotion, because really it's more to tribute to the wife who made it thus far with her husband being gone with all kinds of training and she having to be trained and learn all the new-to-military-life kind of stuff. Okay, I made that up, but it should be called the Wife's Promotion. :)

And noone can deny what cute kids we have!
