Hello, Anyone there?
Yeah, okay so I suck really bad at this whole Blog thing lately. I just lack any energy to do anything if you really want to know. I felt the need though to come and post about the significance of tomorrow. Tomorrow I will be 31 weeks along in this pregnancy. Tomorrow will be the day that I delivered with Em, the first day of the 31st week. So, after tomorrow I will officially be pregnant longer that I have been before. This baby already weighs more than Em did at that point. Crazy... So far everything is going well. No high blood pressure, no proteins in urine, no spotting, no cramps, no swelling. So far so good... I have all the normal pains like hip pain, back pain, leg cramps, hip pain, hip pain, and did I mention hip pain? My legs hurt from carrying my big ass body around but that is because I am so damn short, it's allot of strain on them shorties.
Right now I am scheduled to deliver in my 39Th week. I am trying not to freak, I mean, it's less than 2 months away now. February is going to be a busy month for me. I have to get the baby's things washed and crap like that. I also have to make Keith's coming home signs since March is going to be a busy month for me. He won't be home until sometime in April but I can't see myself bending over painting after surgery. Not to mention I am sure napping will be more of a priority. I want to do a sign from both the girls, I just can't think of anything original to put on it. I know from past experience that having a lot of words on the sign is not too fun to paint so I want to keep it short and sweet... I just can't think of the sweet part.
Speaking of Keith, He is good. Busy but good. He has not had a day off since he has been there and he works 14 hour days. I think I'd be ready to shoot myself if I were him but he seems okay. Then again, I guess it is good to keep busy as it makes time go by quickly. He is excited to come back as we should be moving from our current base to a new one. We don't know where yet but we should find something out soon. As soon as he knows I am going to look into renting a house possibly. I really want a 4 bedroom with two kids as having a playroom would be wonderful. It depends on where we live though. If we get orders to CA or some place like that it might be impossible for us to rent a home. We are military people, we don't make a hell of a lot of money... and living in CA and trying to rent a house would be nearly impossible. I really don't want to live on base housing again. Although our current neighbors are great it is unusual in most places. We were lucky this time. Usually with base housing comes drama and everyone knows your business. If we live out in the town there is also the feeling of getting away from the military as well.
Anyway, Keith should be home at some point in April. In the next couple of months there are going to be allot of changes going on. A new baby, having my husband back, and moving... Before I know it summer will be here! It is going to be strange having Keith with us again. The last image I have of him in my head is him bending over and giving Em a kiss in the car and then getting down on his knees and kissing my belly and finally turning and leaving. When he comes back that little bean will have turned into a baby and she will be out and screaming about. I am sure it is going to be a huge adjustment for him. Not only because of the baby but Em has changed allot as well. She was talking of course but it wasn't nearly as complex as it is now. She is allot more independent and is more like a little girl. She will be 4 when he comes back and when he left she was 3 and 4 months. Allot changes.... Em still asks for him every day, multiple times a day... I am not sure that she will even know that I exists when he comes back.
And on to Emily, I have to share some of our recent conversations. I think I have already told everyone in my family multiple times as well because I am apparently loosing my mind...
Emily - Tucker is a boy, Bree is a girl, Papa is a boy, Grandma is a girl
Me - What's Daddy then Em?
Emily - (Looks at me like I am a dumb ass for asking) Daddy is a Marine and he says Orah!
I almost gave birth I laughed so hard....
Emily - Mommy, am I a princess?
Me - Yes, you are
Emily - Mommy, does that make you the Queen?
Me - Exactly
Then in Walmarts she felt the need to tell everyone that her Mommy's belly was huge and that she had a small belly... Thanks Em....
So, that about wraps up my life right now. I pretty much sit on my ass when I can and put my feet up. I am so damn tired all the time and it takes way too much energy to walk so why bother! :)
Hope you are all doing well out there in Blogger world. Later
