Its almost June!

Its been a long road, but its almost June and Jason will be home so soon! I absolutely can not wait to hold him and not let go!!
We are hoping and praying that we will be able to go home for a few days when he gets back, but nothing is promised at this point. I would love to go home and see my family cause I am sure we are not coming home for Christmas with the new baby and everything. Oh I hope we can!

I haven't talked to Jason for a few days, I hate these days they feel like they drag on and on without hearing his voice and knowing he is okay. But I guess that's the life of an Army wife and I better get used to it.. but its so hard.

Baby probst : I heard the heartbeat at my last appointment, another one of those moments that are so incredible, but at the same time so upsetting knowing Jason wasn't there to experience it with me. But soon enough he will be home and we will be able to find out what we are having! :) I cant wait. We are both pretty sure its a boy. Or at least that's what we are hoping for. And lately I have been able to feel little flutters, very few but still exciting!!

Lets see Savannah: What about her, haha.. she is still a little ball of fire, shes really acting out cause shes got such separation anxiety, she misses her daddy and takes it out on me! Lets see, the other week she literally ate my glasses while I walked over to my neighbors house. So I have been without glasses or about 2 weeks, so I haven't been able to drive at night. Today she decided that she was such a little dog that she would jump up onto the coffee table...and stand on it. I am so surprised she didn't break it! Shes been extremely weird lately.

Other then that, Jason is doing well, from the last few times I've talked to him and baby probst is growing away. Savannah is another story.
thats all for now.

Skype date!


Had a wonderful skype date with Jason this morning!! We talked for about an hour, and he even made me say hi to the guy behind him...jerk considering I had just rolled outta bed, so I looked pretty bad. Whatever. I even got a real laugh outta him :) It makes me so happy when I can see and hear him!
Jason tried to talk to savannah, but she didnt really understand, (shes special) But she was doin the head bob to the computer screen lol.
Other then that, Last night was a blast. The girls came over and we watched Extreme Home Makeover, Desperate Housewives and ofcourse ARMY WIVES... I made homemade pizza for the first time and it was fabulous, and soo easy!
Army wives was a rough one last night, needless to say we had about 4-5 girls crying in my living room. Its definitely harder to watch it this season, being in the same situations and thats why we all started to cry!
Ended up staying up till 4 Am just chatting with 2 of the girls, over all it was a fun night! I am so thankful for the girls here, otherwise I dunno what I would do.
Now today I gotta do all that fun stuff around the house, Dishes, Laundry...woo hoo..
thats all I got for now!

Happy birthday momma & Mothers day!

So its my Mom's Birthday today and of course Mother's day!! Its kind of sad knowing that I am 2200 miles away from my mom on her special day!! I really wish I could be home, to be able to get her any gift no matter what it is, and not worrying about how much or if it will be able to ship home. And celebrate with everyone!
I miss being able to just drive over to my parents house whenever i want too. Instead, I just get a phone call. I will honestly admit that besides not having my husband here every single day, the 2ND hardest thing about being an army wife is being away from everyone you love, and everything that is "normal" to me. I never would have thought that Jason would have been deployed so early in his career and as soon as we moved away.. Things just have been hard without anyone who I am extremely close too..
Anyways...back tracked there.. Happpy Birthday Momma and Happy Mother's Day! I love you and miss you!

Other then that, today was a productive day! :) I got most my cleaning done, scrubbed my kitchen & bathroom floors, and Vacumed up the mess in my living room and cleaned my room. And got groceries!
And the rest the night Kathleen and I watched the 3rd season of Army wives, scrapbooked alittle, and had some sloppy joes!! It was a good and relaxing night...now I'm just waiting for the hubby to call and the night will be complete! :)

Thats all for now!

Today couldnt get any better!!!

Well the streak is over!!!! Finally got to talk to Jason and actually see him and know he is perfectly okay!! This is one Army Wife whos mind is at ease today! :) Im so happy!!! He sounds so good, but he looks kinda dorky, cause hes really burnt in the face ------> if you cant tell!
But other then that he told me today that he has lost alot of weight which is pretty noticeable in the picture, he is down 30 pounds.. and I'm gaining NOT fair!!

Other then that, today is Military Spouse Appreciation day, which is kinda cool that we actually get recognized for all the stuff we have to go through. And as most my Army wife friends know there is plenty we go through. :/ But in the end when he walks towards me the day he gets back, everything will disappear for that moment in time and be all worth it. (im gonna make myself cry..) yikes on to the next thing.

Yesterday was a miserable day, baby probst wouldnt let me eat anything really besides goldfish.. Everything just made me gag. Hopefully today will be better cause tonight I am going to a get together with a few friends and I dont want to feel sick like I did yesterday!

Savannah had a rough night, She was sleeping on my bedroom floor and crying most of the night. Shes been acting all sorts of strange the past few weeks. She really thinks her daddy left her, and that when I leave the house that I am too gonna leave her. Poor babe. I honestly dont know what to, she is soo needy. She follows me everywhere I go in my house.

Anyways that all for now, im gonna finally get outta bed and get some things done for the day!

its been a long couple of days..

Well, for the past 3 days I haven't been able to talk to Jason, not going to lie sometimes it makes me worry, but I also know he has a job to get done over there.

I had yet another incident with my crazy dog. She really can't stand the fact that sometimes I have to leave, and can not take her with me.. And shes acting out because Jason is gone I know that for a fact! This time she literally ate the heals off a pair of my high heels, and for some reason she likes rugs, so she chewed at my rug in the living room. I have been looking around for a kennel, but I am not sure if that is the solution, I think the solution of the problem will be home in around a month or so! I.E (daddy) Other then that shes a good dog when I'm home.

Well yesterday, was a lazy day. I wasn't feeling very well so I mostly slept. Then I had to get my butt in gear and go to the ups store to mail out mothers day gift, talk about expensive.
Then we made a trip to the dog park on post, with savannah's little friends, Jim Dandy, Tubby, and Dixie! She loves her playdates at the dog park. I think she is really growing up, and is trying her hardest not to be scared of dogs that bark and growl at her, baby steps I guess.

Today, I think I'm gonna have to clean up some of the shreds that were left on my floor from my dog and then tonight at 6, Kathleen and I are going to an FRG meeting about the boys coming home and then I guess they are going to be making some Welcome Home signs! Its pretty exciting just knowing that pretty soon Jason will be back at home and everything will semi be back to normal!

And for baby probst, he or she really likes to make me feel icky most days, but I have been noticing that I cant sleep on my stomach anymore to much discomfort. So things are changing, but I wont know anything until May 17th, when I go in for my next appointment!

Thats really all for today, I am just hoping I hear from Jason soon, before I go crazy!!

1st month down.

The first month of deployment has come to an end. I honestly have no idea what I have been up too, while the time has gone so fast. Some nights drag on and get pretty lonely but I have been tryng to keep myself busy.

Jason and I have usually gotten to talk to eachother everyday, sometimes he isn't able to talk, but most days I usually hear from him in some way shape or form. The internet has been a blessing, what we would all do without internet!

Jason is doing very well, He hates the heat over there, but overall he doesnt think the deployment is too bad, besides being away from everyone. When we talk he usually can't tell me much about what he has been up too, which is kind of scarey. But as long as I know he is okay, it eases my mind alittle.
Once Jason gets back, now that we are expecting we qualify for a 3 bedroom house, so we will be moving into a larger home. Jason would like to move off base, but we need to discuss that when he gets back, and way our options.I would much rather stay on base, where I know it is safe. We will have to see when the time comes.

What else, yesterday I hit my 11 weeks, so next monday I will hit the 3 month mark, time flies! So in about 6 months Jason and I will have a new baby! Hes really excited. He was waiting for me to get on facebook one morning and he was talking to another army wife that I am friends with, and he told her he couldnt believe it and that it was a miracle! He would really like to have a boy, which for me I dont care either way as long as the baby is healthy!

oh and Savannah, She is a little sneaky girl. She managed to sneak out of the kitchen where we lock her up while we leave the house...So needless to say I have had to keep her out to run the house while I leave, and she hasnt been the best little girl. She ate her daddys running shoes today while I was out shopping with the girls.

thats all for now..
