The Up and Up

Things feel like they are slowly getting better. My heart feels a little happier today, and my headache was knocked out with a small 1500mg dose of tylenol. Boo-yah! I win! I cannot begin to express how good it feels to have a laptop again... I know it sounds stupid, but when I am sitting at the other computer I feel like I should just be playing games. Too many long nights of Evony and bigfish games with Jean Marie on that computer to ever feel like it is meant for anything else. Aside from that, getting boo's room done and getting the rug into the living room have made this house feel a little more "homey."

So, I have slowly been getting Ivan's room ready. Unfortunately, in order to do that, I have to get Cara's room ready first because a majority of the things in his room have to be moved to hers. Last week I moved the kitchen set, barbie vet set, and all the girly toys. Today I moved the rainbow paper lanterns and the last girly poster. Boo's room is rocking now! Poor baby. She has waited 2 years for her room to actually look like it belongs to her.

The weather here is getting warmer. While my pregnant self is not enjoying the heat too much I am happy to know that summer is finally here because that means that the time to get my hubby back is drawing closer. Cara is getting older by the second! I can't believe how much she has progressed lately. Steven isn't going to recognize her when he gets home.

Now that my computer is up and running, I think that it is time to finally put that final chapter on my book. I am anxious to finally finish it. Not that I am going to really share it with anyone other than Ashley and Amanda, but at least it will be done. At any rate... its only noon thirty and I got plenty to get done around here. So, back to the grind with me.

Missing In Action

Well, I honestly have to question my mental health on certain days. It feels like every time I talk to someone who is about to make a career move, their number one concern is how long that job is going to take them away from their families... I do not think we ever even considered this when he started doing what he is doing now. It's the weirdest thing to me that people are conerned with deployments and training schedules... I never really give it much thought because it is normal to us, I guess. I remember a time when I was adjusting to Steven always being gone, and I literally had to carry a picture of him with me at all times because I was certain that I was going to forget what he looked like. There were very late nights, up with kids, where I was worried I was going insane because I did not feel like this husband of mine actually existed. How ridiculous is that? Now, I suppose we have gotten so good at being apart, that he can be gone for majority of the year and I do...

Now Things Get Interesting

We have hit the 21 week mark. you know most women are excited to hit the second leg of the pregnancy, they are finally out of the wood-works, and know that all its about is baby gaining weight, developing lungs, and waiting for its entry into the world. Not so much around here. After them first 20 weeks, my pregnancies quit being fun and start being scary. Other women get excited to feel their babies moving so much, all this little boy does is move around, and it's making me nervous, he agitates my uterus; hasn't caused any contractions yet, but he's still got some room and doesn't have the strength of a 28-32 weeker yet. Don't get me wrong, I love being pregnant, but its scary. And its scary to know I am carrying a boy because they suck at doing good if they are born early. I suppose it will be what it will be and there isn't anything I can do to change the plans set in place for our family. I honestly dont think anything is going to go wrong, I think everythin...

yawn

I honestly dont remember the last time I was literally falling asleep while watching television... but I am exhausted. It feels like everything has settled down with Cara and now the exhaustion of it all has finally caught up to me. I need to just sleep in, but alas, meds at 0100 and 0700, so no rest for the mommy. It's going on midnight, and I have to wonder if it's even worth going to bed for an hour, just to have the cursed alarm wake me up in a little bit. Guess it is good practice for when Ivan gets here and is on my case for late night feedings. Oh, how I hate newborns! I know that is a bad thing for a mommy to say, but who enjoys anything that tires them out and makes them miserable? Sure, I love my babies... but I love em even more when they start sleeping through the night. There's your honesty for the evening... I guess I'm too tired to sugar coat things. That or I'm just bad at sugar coating... either way.. there you have it :) I guess I will go ...
