The Panic Whistle
So the latest hair cutting for the boys didn't go so great. I think it's time for me to just take them to someone else. They both were screaming like I was trying to cut off their legs and silly me had the windows open so you could probably hear it down the street. I'm surprised no one called the cops! Cameron went first and usually he does pretty good. Right from the beginning he was a reck, but nothing can compare to trying to do William's hair. What a complete disaster. Please, try to imagine, I was sitting next to him with my leg over his lap so he couldn't get down and one hand trying to hold his head. You gotta realize this only leaves me with one hand. Cameron's job was to bring him toy after toy until something was found that would calm him down. Towards the end I figured no other toys were working to calm him down so I'll just give him my keys. Of course he's only interested in the panic whistle. The only thing that could compare to how loud his screaming was. So he's all covered in snot, tears, and hair blowing the panic whistle. It was truely pathetic.

This Week
We've had quite a bit happening this week. First of all Cameron had to go to the doctor, again, for the same rash that he's had since we've been here. Of course they don't know what it is either. Seriously, don't you wonder sometimes why you even bother going. Half the time they don't even know what's the matter. Anyways, he gets to go back in a few weeks to see how that's going.
Jason is supposed to be going sometime in the next week or so to put in his request for ports. Remember it's just a request so it dosn't mean we'll actually get what we want. So there's been alot of talks this week of where we want to go and what places would be best. I did learn something though. If you want to go to Guam it's a certain thing that you will. We're pretty torn between 3 ports. Ultimately though the Navy will make the decision for us so we're trying not to get too worried about making the wrong choice.
Ashley Pratt's getting married. I got a call a few days ago from her mom and they want me to be there. So I would be gone for 4 days. I had to think about this one quite a while. I think though, as much as I want to be there and also see the family, I just wouldn't be able to relax. Nothing against Jason he just dosn't have a clue when it comes to their routine. I'm sure they'd live but I might not. That was a really hard decision. I thought about taking the boys too but we just couldn't swing it, I'm sure you all know how that goes.
Overall it's been a crazy week. To top it off, both of the boys woke up yesterday with colds. I'm praying they'll get over that quickly. I'm trying to decide who's suffering more me or them. Cameron's so cute though. I ask him how he feels and he'll just say, "I'm fine mom, it's ok." Even if the whole lower half of his face is covered in snot. Eeewww, by the way.
That's all my news for this week. Hopefully nothing else happens. Away from all the sickness and hard decisions though, we're really liking it back here. I can't tell any of you how beautiful it is. All the trees are just starting to change. We're all really looking forward to the fall. Cameron is extremely excited about Halloween. For this week he wants to be Dash from the Incredibles. Last week it was Buzz Lightyear. For some crazy reason he keeps insisting Will should be a chicken we really don't know why. He tells us that's what Will wants. We'll see though. We hope everyone is all doing well.
