It's been awhile...

kriswaters Nov 12, 2006 01:29 AM

Well, as life usual mandates, I've been a busy lady! Rylie (my 14 y/o daughter) is working on fund raising to go to DC next June. I myself just took a 10 day trip to Delaware and New York! It was my first time ever back east, and let me tell you...New York was sensory overload, but a total blast!

Squiggy is doing great. He is getting bigger and bigger by the day. I included some recent pictures...I wish I could have gotten one when he was "fired" up at me the other day...oh well, maybe next time. Sorry the pics are a little fuzzy...I have a hard time with my camera only during the cham capturing moments!

Hope all is well for everyone.

Kris

Oh wow Chris... Squiggy looks great! Man they grow fast, and time does fly by!! I'm hoping to have my new life settled in by christmas, and I hope to have more time to spend at home with my "kids"! Glad you liked NY, I'll be going there in March sometime. Did I tell you I got married? Not sure who I told or who I didn't, but anywho.. it was a shotgun wedding.. only one day to plan.. LOL, but it was amazing!
Well, Keep posting pics of your handsome little guy there!! I'll get some on here soon too!!
ttyl Feenie

Shotgun wedding??? Does that mean you have a little bun in your oven? Or was it just a whim? I had a shotgun wedding of my own...some 13 1/2 years ago. My bun in the oven was out and 5 months old! Good luck to you on that.

As for Squig...he is just waiting for some fine lady...Hubby still won't let me get another cham, but I am still thinking of the fine excuses provided much earlier...like, "LOOK WHAT I FOUND..." or something to that extent.

Are you still in Seattle? If so, enjoying the weather?

Talk to you soon.

You are too funny Kris... No, no bun in the oven..yet. He's been in Iraq for almost a year and he had suprized me when he showed up at my work one day.. still in full gear. He had given up his rotation time off twice before and we thought he wouldn't get to come home until March or April, so I wasn't getting my hopes up, then he was offered more training in Fort Lewis starting that following monday... so he loaded up his stuff and came home. We decided we could spend his 48 days home planning a wedding, and running around like mad, or we could just get married and spend the time as husband and wife. SOOOO, a few phone calls and a day later it was done. I didn't even have to find a sitter for all the kids He leaves back to Iraq for another year in a 13 days 12 hours 10 minutes
Then I'll be back to being my lonely little self again...

He isn't related to Rana is he?? He seems bright enough that he could be.. He's about 10 or 11 months old now right?? You got him in Feb. from Tyler right?? Rana will be two in a month and Stitch is alreay 3.5 years old... Time flies when you're having fun I guess.
And NO Kris.. I am not enjoying the weather! It's wet and cold outside! ICKY ICKY ICKY! The White River flooded ( which hasn't happened in 15 years) and my friends parents woke up to a basement full of water! It's really crazy, BUT the ice hasn't shown up yet... so the fun is still to come! Any floods your way?? None by my place yet.. which is good, I can't hold my breath for very long!

Squig arrived hear around Feburary. They very well could be from the same clutch! I guess we'll have to get Tyler to confirm that! Squig has grown into quite the gentleman...he comes to the opening to get crix every time! He is very colorful and quite striking if I say so myself.

Its been a nice few days here. Cold but at least the sun has shined a little hear and there. Waiting for the next big storm on Sunday! Gotta love the Northwest (personally, I wouldn't live any where else!)

That's what I was talking about. Thanks for your comment. He is really becoming a "mama's boy" LOL. He will eat out of my hands, but no one elses...when fired up, he looks huge!

Feenie was wondering if Rana and he were related?

No, they're not related... Off the top of my head, I think Squig is almost a year younger, though I'm likely wrong (I didn't think it was that long ago when you got Squig, and after Rana's clutch nothing else was related to that clutch)... Rana is a sister to the male owned by Kevin Michael (Chameleon76), as well as a male that I still have (I held onto Rana's brother, and have some kids from him here now). Mine's not as nice looking as his brother, Kevin's male. The mom to "Rana" was "Gaia," the oddest looking female veiled I have yet seen.

for not giving Gaia to me!! ( That's why I didn't marry him! ) She was the most Beautiful cham I've ever seen in my whole life!! I pretty much stalked... um I mean closely followed the progress Tyler was making (that sounds better) until Gaia's babies were old enough and then had him pick out the best one for me! He did an excellent job.. Rana is the next most beautiful chameleon next to Gaia. I hope if she ever has babies they all look their Gaia!!
Tyler, You have to post some pics of Rana brother, what's his name again? and some of his kids too!! I can't believe Rana is an auntie already.

I can't say his name because it involves a bad word (you know what it is).... I'm still bummed I didn't get to marry Feeniee, I'm still on the lookout for a 20-something chameleon girl.
