In Virginia

I've arrived in VA!  It was a long flight, but well worth it.  In a half an hour I'll have been up for 24 hours, but I did catch about an hour of zzz's.  Hubby made it to his deployed location also...their vehicle broke down on the way yesterday, but traded it in today and went on their way.  I'm glad he made it safely. 
I made my first trip to Target tonight, it was a quick one, but I still enjoyed myself.  I found myself in the baby section rather quickly, but resisted buying anything...it was hard!  I will buy after baby is born so I know the size.  Tomorrow I'll make another trip back to Target because I didn't buy everything I needed because I forgot my coupons in the hotel room...oops!  I'll also work on my homework tomorrow because my after Thursday, I'm booked for the weekend.  On Thursday, I'm meeting with our birth mom and her mom.  I'm really excited to meet them in person.  On Friday, my little sister and her daughters are coming up to visit me for the weekend.  I'm excited...lots planned.  Maybe I'll do some baby shopping when she's here.  Well, I'm going to try to get a good nights rest.

Have a great day!

2 days

and I can go shopping at Target!  Oh how exciting, I've been anxiously waiting for this adventure.  But, before leaving I still have to get the house in order and make sure everything is perfectly cleaned, unplugged, and ready to live in upon our return.  Tomorrow is a big day, have a lot of errands to run, drop monkey boy off at the kennel, have lunch one last time as a singleton with my friends, and do last minute cleaning.  This prep to leaving all revolves around cleaning.  Because I'm not sure how long I'll be in the states, could be 2-4 months, I need to get things taken care of before leaving.
Hubs has been called to deploy.  He was called last night to get up to work with his bags.  He called 4 hours later and came home, hopefully until Monday.  It's actually working out perfect because he will probably make it home from his deployment before baby and I get home.  If that's the case, he'll come to the states after he returns, then we will go visit his family.  If he didn't go on this deployment, he would be in Iraq in June until January.  So even though I was throwing a fuss and wanting him to be around so we can skype with baby, I quickly realized that this situation is better for us all.  All though it wasn't in my timing or plans, it was His perfect plan.  I love it!  It couldn't be better!  Now because my plan was hoping to be home May 10th, I'm hoping His perfect plan will be revealed to me shortly after babies birth so we can make arrangements to come home.

Have a great day!

4 days...

Until I leave to await the arrival of our soon to be son.  There is SO much stuff that needs to get done before I leave though.  With hubs on standby to deploy any minute, I have to get things ready in the event he has to leave also...that means our little monkey boy.  I'm really hoping he can stay home with him so he won't have to be locked in a cage for months.  That would be sad and I'd hate to have to put him in the kennel for such a long time.  It's looking right now though that hubs can stay home a little longer.  He's not making the trip to VA with me, but will come after TPR is official...as long as he's not deployed already. 
Gotta run, maintenance man is here.

Have a great day!
