Pregnancy Brain

30 weeks, eek!!!

Here is a glimpse into the dangers of Pregnancy Brain...

This is all from the last 3 weeks....

I swiped my Drivers License to pay for some stuff at Target and panicked when it said my card was not valid.

I took my husbands car to the grocery store, when I got done I walked around the parking lot 3 times looking for MY van.

I drove to Hunters school with my purse on the roof, luckily its not a far drive and it wasn't a windy day!

When I was putting away ingredients I used I placed the tub of butter in the microwave instead of the refrigerator.

I have put my car keys and or cell phone in the following places...Fridge, bathroom medicine cabinet, pantry, toy box, and hall closet. Its a miracle I find anything.

My sentences are totally discombobulated...Hailey was riding her bike naked and i said "Hailey doesnt ir hurt your privates to ride your bike barefoot?"

or

My closet is in my shoes

my couch is on the cat.....

you get the idea.

Its a dangerous world being pregnant!

Sadly I had many more, and when I started writing them down I forgot. 

Happy Mothers Day

To My Hunter....

My Hailey

And little BabyO who is still busy cooking...

Thank you for letting me be your Mother.

You three make everyday a blessing.

I love you!

Happy Mothers Day to all my Mommy friends.

Military Spouse Appreciation Day

President Barack Obama signed a proclamation yesterday making May 7, 2010 Military Spouse appreciation day. 

I found this on a news Article....

Here’s to you, the one who waits, no matter the distance, no matter the time. Here’s to you, the one who fights your own battle at home, between the tears and sleepless nights. Here’s to you, the one who will never give up, even when everything around you seems to be falling down.

And here’s to you, because while people may think they know how tough it is to be a hero, no one but us will ever know how tough it is to love one… 

My Soldier friend said "nothing i went through in the military ever compared with the things that military spouses have to go through." We are Super Heroes!

I was on the phone yesterday with USAA and she told me I was an unsung hero, and thanked me for being married to a soldier. Well, you're welcome!

As a Military Spouse, I have survived my share of days deployed in Iraq, soon to be a one year tour in Korea, and millions of TDY's which is Military for "Business trip," Which actually My Soldier is currently on. He "had" to go to Monterey, CA for about 48 hours, poor guy.

Being in the military can be very tough and crazy at times, It takes a certain type of person to be able to handle the stress and the craziness they throw at you. The thing that helps us make it through is our fellow Military buddies! Without you guys this would be insanely difficult and not worth the journey. Since joining the Military world, I now have friends in just about every state and tons of different countries. NO Matter where we go, we will surely know someone.

Anyway...Its nice to be appreciated, thanks Mr. President! 

Just for kicks on this glorious official holiday....here is a little military trip down memory lane.

Saying Goodbye to Russ before he got on a plane to Iraq.

Some last kisses in the Car

The guys doing a gig in Iraq

Rock Band in Iraq

Waiting in the gym for the guys to come home from Iraq

I dont know that the fog was necessary...made it super hard to breathe and impossible to detect your husband wearing the same thing as everyone in a cloud of smoke.

Found him!

Getting "church" married after he came home

Did you know Russ and I were married while in different countries? We did a proxy....thats a whole other story!

This is a few months ago, Re-enlisting for another 3 years of fun

Gotta get the wife too!

I found out I was pregnant 3 days after this....

I have a lot more buried in folders...however my brain is a bit "prego" today and I'm having a hard time thinking.

Thanks to all my Military Spouse buddies out there for supporting me and letting me support you right back! 

I know we get this day recognized now, but we deserve some appreciation every single day!
