The Krazy Kuehl's!: February 2012

It's been over a month since I have last updated anyone on what's going on with our lives... so much has been going on. We'll go one family member at a time:

TRAVIS: As most of you know, the reason we moved out to Wisconsin almost 2 years ago was following in my other siblings footsteps in get into the Subway ownership game. Well after looking in Denver last winter, almost moving to Red Lodge, MT last summer and basically giving up on our dreams later this last fall, we are 4 days away from "offically" becoming Subway owners. Our store will be in Wisconsin Dells. Travis was approved by Subway in late January to go to training out in Connecticut for 2 weeks. On Super Bowl Sunday, Isaac and I drove him to the airport and (tearfully) waved him "Bye, Bye" for 2 weeks. In his two weeks there he learned all the in's and out's of Subway, randomly met Dan Marino, turned 32, met the founder of Subway and visited New York City. He returned last Saturday morning to two happy (again tearful) faces at the airport. I wish I would have captured Isaac's reaction to seeing his daddy again. It was pretty adorable. I was too busy being emotional though. :)

Rachel: Major change on a pregnant woman is rough! I made it though. In the past when Travis would be gone for a few days, I would feel empowered that I can make it on my own... not so much when there is a toddler and a baby in-utero! I made it though, and his absence made me appreciate his presence that much more! Other than that, my belly is just swelling more and more every day. I'm in my last trimester now and the baby girl will be here before I know it!

Isaac: The little guy had to start day-care for the first time the day after daddy left. I thought he would be just fine, because he has always been so social in the past. It did take him about a week to adjust. They tell me he is really shy???? Who knew! He was pretty good for mom while dad was gone, although we did have a five day streak of being up in the middle of the night! He is really good at moving along furniture now and should be walking soon. He can stand, but doesn't do it unless he doesn't realize he is doing it. Also, all but two teeth and his two year molars are now in, so the horrible part of teething should be over.

All of us: So now we are just a few days away from business ownership. Along with Subway, we are buying the building it is in, which has two apartment complexes, so we will become landlords too. Lot's of exciting changes... and let's throw in a new baby and the very real possibility of us moving.. AGAIN! We are currently house shopping for something closer to the Wisconsin Dells (where our store is) so we aren't each driving an hour in opposite directions this summer with our two kids somewhere in the middle. Stressful! You heard it here first... NEXT YEAR THERE WILL BE NO BABIES AND NO MOVING!

Here a few pics. Not many.
