Getting there..

Well it's been awhile since the last update, so here's another one!

Jaymes, baby, Dozer, and myself are doing pretty good. Not too much is new, we're on the real countdown to baby's birthday with just 32 days left! Just about everything is assembled & ready for him & his first few months of life.. there's a few more things we need to run & get, but all of the big things are in place so we can breathe. The pregnancy is going as smooth as it can at this point.. baby is healthy & that's what matters. Mommy, however, is exhausted with little sleep under her belt & lots of aches, pains, headaches, and swelling. Daddy is getting impatient as well & is ready for his little boy to come on out! At the last doctor appointment, we were informed that I was measuring in a week further along than originally thought. Doc decided to keep the due date of September 7th though, however, he could very well come at the end of this month.. we'll see what happens! And call me crazy, but I think he'll be here on August 31st. That's my prediction. Our next appointment is this Tuesday (the 10th) & we'll be finding out what position he's in for the big day!

Other areas of life: Jaymes is almost a civilian.. (but he'll always be my Marine!) He's pretty excited. He's ready to have some normal hours that don't vary from week to week, and so am I. It's just crazy to think how much our lifes are about to change! Going from being just the 2 of us, to the 3 of us. Going from living a Military lifestyle, to a civilian lifestyle. Going from one side of the Country, to the other.. it can be a little overwhelming. I never thought I'd say that I'm going to miss California, but I will. Not because it's better than Indiana, but because this is Jaymes & I's first home together.. the place our son will be born.. where we celebrated our 1st Anniversary, Christmas, Valentines day, birthdays (etc. )together. This place holds a million memories & firsts for us. We will definitley be visiting again someday.

Well, it's 10:40.. way past this lady's bedtime. I just thought some of you would appreciate a quick-ish update on where we are in life.

God Bless!
