Counting..

So I have to admit...I am pretty jealous. I love to read Erin's blog @ Moore To Love and she's been doing these countdowns to certain events in the upcoming future since shes going through her first deployment. I certainly think this does help some wives/husbands, and I wish I had more to look forward to in the next 7 months leading up to my husbands return. Shes got trips and visits all planned out and its nice to see her get all excited about them.

Before I knew I was pregnant I had a million and one plans on what I was planning on doing for this deployment. I had planned to move home only till March and then move back to Kansas, and be moved on post instead of being off post. I had planned a trip to Arizona, a trip to California, and also a few trips home to Utah...its funny how life has its ways of working out.

After I found out I was pregnant I obviously couldn't stay in Kansas alone. So it was all decided I would stay in Utah, I still wanted to go to Arizona, but no one wanted to go with me, and I knew I couldn't drive by myself...so that went out the door. I wanted to go to California (San Fran) to visit my cousin who had a baby, and not see my mother-in-law, but my husband didnt want to pay for the plane ticket for me to go there. Ahh.

And so here I am...the one thing I know that is for certain coming is my baby girl! almost 14 more weeks! Which also means R&R! So theres one thing thats sort of a countdown...though I'm not like my husband who stares at a calender everyday, hoping a week will magically disappear from June. I wish I had more certain things to look forward to. But for now...every Tuesday I get to read a new paragraph in my baby book to see what my little girl is up to. Every Sunday Army Wives is on and I usually get a phone call from the husband instead of a facebook chat.

Hmmm I guess writing this did make me realize how much more I do with little things to look forward to. I do wish I could go on a trip soon though....because Utah is still getting SNOW! L.A.M.E
