Being Pregnant= No motivation

I know I always say that I am the worst blogger ever. And here I am saying it again. Before, my excuse was that Jon was leaving and we were so busy. I thought I would have a lot of time to blog after he left, which, I do. BUT, now that I am pregnant, I have lost all motivation to do ANYTHING. I am so tired and have no energy. I now go to work on a daily basis with no makeup, hair not done, and clothes that I don't even know if they match. My room is a mess and I need to do laundry, but it just sits....and sits....and sits......waiting to be done. And then there is my blog. Completely neglected. I am hoping that during my 2nd trimester, things will change. I need my energy back! As far as my pregnancy and 1st doctors apt:
-I am due February 10th
-I will find out at the end of August if I am having a boy or girl
-I am hungry EVERY second of the day
-I dont have morning sickness, unless I dont eat. FOOD is (unfortunately) the cure.
-I am still working, and plan to until I absolutely cant anymore
-I CRAVE mexican food, and anything high in carbs. Bread, pasta, potatoes, etc.
-Like I said, I am tired with no energy or motivation.
-Gotta love being bloated everyday!

I guess I need to be grateful that I am not bending over the toilet with horrible morning sickness. I feel pretty lucky, actually.
My poor hubby is just heartbroken that he has to miss all of this. He wishes more than anything that he could be here. We are crossing our fingers that he will be able to make it home for the birth.
Overall, we are thrilled. I am now officially content with the idea, whereas at first, I was a little freaked out and shocked. But now I am convinced, that this pregnancy is what is going to get me through Jon's deployment. It will keep me busy, always looking forward to my next dr's appointment. In the end, I truely believe that Heavenly Father knows what is best for us..... I used to think that the LAST situation I would want to be in is: pregnant, home alone, husband gone, 2 dogs to take care of, not knowing if I would be able to keep my job or not....But now that I am in the situation, I would not have it any other way. It is meant to be. I underestimated myself before, thinking I couldn't do it. Heavenly father had more trust in me, knowing that I could.

It's number 2 for us!

Happy Anniversary to my wonderful husband. Today we celebrate our 2nd year of marriage! Although, we are celebrating our Anniversary long distance this time.......
I'm so sad we could not be together today, Jon. I am thrilled to continue life with you and our family that we have started to create! Thank you for being a courageous, brave, soldier. I love you!
P.S. To everyone: Blog will be going private this week.

What a week....

This past week was very busy with our temple sealing, and then we had a going away get together for Jon. The turnout was great, and my mother in law did a great job hosting it at her house, because we got rained out of the park!! Thanks to all who came!
Well our hectic week gets more hectic, come Sunday evening. 2 weeks till Jon leaves, and SURPRISE!!!! I am pregnant!!!!! This came as a complete shock, I am still shocked. It will be tough with Jon missing everything.......I swear though, if I can go through THIS alone, then I can do anything!!! Jon is thrilled! We are excited to go through this together, even though I guess its long distance. :) When I told Jon, his response was, "Well, we went through the temple and now we are being blessed!" I am sooooooo glad we were able to go through the temple this week!!

Yes we are..going private

For obvious safety/security reasons, my husband has asked me to make our blog private. So, anyone who would like to still look at our blog, please leave your email. I never really thought we would go private, but being in the military I guess it is safer.
Thanks!!

Hectic

I know everytime I post I am full of excuses as to why I never post, or put pictures on! Well, here I am again, with more excuses! But to be honest, life has been crazy and hectic for us! I think there is so much anticipation with Jon leaving, that we are just non stop for the most part. Jon will leave at the end of June, :( So we are trying to spend as much time together as possible before he leaves, yet still working our busy schedules with our jobs. Ok, I am definitely not as busy at work as my poor husband is!
We are alive though! And I hope no one has given up hope on me and my posts! :( Just bare with me till the end of June! I promise I will be back, probably with more time than ever b/c my husband wont be around to keep me as busy :(
