The Lottery

I realize that I've been failing miserably at updating this blog the past few weeks. I'm determined to get back on track...so we shall see how this goes. 


Currently, we're in the midst of trying to get things ready for Jesse to leave for a few weeks. This means last minute shopping, sewing things, ordering uniform stuff, etc. oh yes, lots and lots of fun. Seems that I still have a lot to learn about this military lifestyle. haha. For example: sewing his name tags on correctly. I'm not quite convinced that he fully trusts my ability to do it correctly. 


and this pregnancy...let me just say that i'm ready for it to be August. My feet are constantly swollen and it doesn't seem to get any better, despite my best efforts to do everything I can to keep them from getting any bigger. My fingers seem to be even more swollen too. This is especially apparent when i took my rings off and realized how swollen my fingers actually are. And my face... i'm going to blame the fact that it seems a lot bigger than usual on this pregnancy and being swollen. One thing I am happy about...the baby shower and registering. I'm not completely done registering, however I did start the process online. Now all that's left to do is actually make it into the store one day and finish! I'll gladly accept any diaper donations from anyone! :) 


I'd like to win the lottery... or at least fall into about a million dollars. Money doesn't grow on trees....but sometimes I strongly believe that it should. A million dollars could potentially solve a lot of things. For example: new house or at least remodeling the one we're currently in! 


we're looking forward to this weekend. We have a wedding to attend and then we're spending a few nights in StL! One thing we definitely want to do is see the Hangover Part II while we're there. It'll be Jesse's last chance to see a movie for awhile as well! :)  I'm hoping that I can sneak a trip to the spaghetti factory in there as well. Jess isn't as big of a fan of the spaghetti factory as I am...but that's ok...I'm almost positive I can convince him to go! 


Rylee's sure going to miss her daddy while he's away. When he's home she doesn't have to be locked up all day in her kennel. I'm not quite sure what she's going to do all day when she has to be in there! One things for sure...she's going to be absolutely CRAZY when I get home from work and let her out! Oh, that will be fun! 


I'm hoping that Jess and I can sneak in some time to work on the baby room before he leaves. There's still a lot to do and not enough time left to finish it! My goal is to get a lot done while he's gone...that way when he gets home we just have a few final touches to do and decorating as well! I at least want to get it painted and partially decorated...as well as getting some of my crafty ideas done as well! Of course, if we had a name picked out, this all would be a lot easier! =) 


Alright, well that's it. Night!
