I totally give up with remembering and finding time to write everynight. I feel so guilty.. and it's just a blog. It's not suppose to feel like my hw. But for some reason it does! UGH!
Anywho... yesterday, I ordered the babies bathtub, which is super cool, is has a digital thermometer, and also a clean water system so the baby is never bathed in dirty water! I also ordered my Moby Baby wrap, which is super awesome and I cannot wait to get it! Today we went to the mall with krystin, and I got a pair of camo capris for like 7 bucks, and they even have a stretchy waist band(and they aren't even technically maternity pants, love charlotte rousse)!!! I also got jaylea a shirt that says "Sorry boys, my daddy says I can't date till I'm 30!!!!!" Which is totally adorable... gotta love spencers!!! Then I got the baby a set of 4 receiving blankets, they were on sale at pennys.. originally almost 30 bucks and I got them for 8 :). I got another pair of pajama pants for 4 bucks.. they are SO freaking cute. They were originally 40!!! You can say I bargain shopped today! Then we went grocery shopping and I got a lot of food again... Now, I gotta take it easy, my pantry is over flowing... while we were at walmart I got jaylea 2 new outfits, I got her a pooh bear one that came with 3 pieces and also got her a little green and white dress. She needs more summer clothes so everytime we are out I try to get her something new so Im not spending a bunch of money at one time. And also I have more to choose from this way!
This morning I talked to jon for quite a while. He got some news on coming home for the birth... it will only consist of 4 days tops(as of right now, who knows it may change) But now he no longer needs a travel buddy, which means him coming home won't depend on someone else. Which is great! So things are looking up! Now we just have to pray that he gets the full word he is allowed. We have PLENTY of money in savings to cover the ticket and will still have a lot left over, so money is definitely not an issue. We just pray he gets the a-ok for sure to come home!!!
Other than that, things are good. And jaylea and I are just taking it day by day... however, December feels so far away. On the 6th we'll be 2 months down and we'll only have 8 months left...(ha, I say only....like thats not long, whatever) it doesn't make things any easier that there are homecoming signs out the ass all over base for all the other batallions coming home... crappy we have to deal with this till mid deployment... it's hard. It really is, if I didn't love Jon as much as I did and I hadn't been with him for so long, I would not have chosen this life for myself or our kids... but sometimes, God makes us do things that are hard. But I have always been told, If God brings you to it, he'll see you through it. And so far, he has definitely had my back this deployment. But honestly 5 years was too long of a time for us to throw away just because he decided to join the Navy. It sucks, but damnit, I love that man, and we have been there for eachother through everything. Since my sophomore year of hs, and that is a long time. Just wish this were a little easier. I will say though, I am damn proud to say I and him sacrafice our family so he can protect the country, and he makes me awfully proud. I know he is doing good over there. Well of course, he is helping build a school so the little ones over there can get a better education. :)! That is always amazing! No offence, but that is almost cooler than the SWA HUTS they built over in Iraq and Afganistan. lol! No.. it is cooler! But I am proud, and I love knowing he was man enough to serve his country. That is more than I can say for some others. I could go on for hours how proud I am, but it's bedtime for me.
Have a good night.
If I had a single flower for every time I think about you, I could walk forever in my garden.
