Well, here I sit typing this out with a moving baby, that feels way to big for my tummy. There's no more room at the Inn=], or in this case, momma's belly. I'm 39 weeks and 2 days as of today, only 5 days till his due date. I was hoping to be one of those lucky girls, that have their baby 2 weeks early, and not have to worry about being late. But, I guess that didn't happen. I do hope he comes this week, I'm beyond ready! If not though, there is a reason for it, and that'll be okay to. Well its going to have to be, I have no choice! haha! I'm expecting him to be late, so I don't get my hopes up. I just really prefer not to be induced. I'm just hoping and praying he fits in all his cute newborn outfits! Lol! We will have to see, God only knows when. My cervix is extremely thinned out, and I'm 1.5 centimeters dilated, as of Thursday of last week. My OB keeps telling me that he could come any minute, my body is all ready for him, but it's all up to him. My next appointment is this Wednesday the 18th, if Lee isn't here yet. I've been contracting everyday, real bad off and on, but inconsistent, everyday since early Thursday morning. My legs/hips have been going numb for the past 2 weeks, if I'm standing too long. A whole lot worse than its been through my whole pregnancy. I'm just sooooooo ready to have him! R.J. has been so excited, I would say maybe even more than me, but Idk if that could be possible. He's hoping every phone call that rings, is me telling him to come to the hospital. Lee's "temporary" nursery is done, and I love it. It just makes me more excited to do his real nursery. Our bags are all packed and ready to go. Like I said, we're just waiting on the little guy.
We're having Lee down in Charleston, at Trident Hospital. Where both R.J. and I were born at. We decided to have him down here, because both our families are here, and it'll probably be one of the only chances they'll all be there for a birth of a grandchild. Plus, R.J. wants one of our kids to be born in SC. On a good and smooth drive, it'll take only about 2 and half hours to get here, with a little speeding (:. So R.J. will get here in time for the birth. Or I'll tell the doctor to hold Lee in till R.J. arrives. (: I'm looking forward to those 10 days of maternity leave that the Army gives!
R.J. is officially a Chaplin assistant, and he's loving it! He's so thankful that he picked this MOS. He said that there isn't a bone in his body, that makes him miss his old job. As far as our orders go, it's all up in the air. It's very stressful for us, actually extremely. If we go to Germany, which is what our orders say, he reports July 10th. But when it comes to our orders, there's just a bunch of confusing stuff going on with them. Just way to much to go into detail. The ARMY has us waiting like usual, and has our future is in their hands. which is a given. But, we need to not dwell on that, because over all, our future is in the Lords hands. He knows exactly what is going to happen, and that's what gives me peace over the whole situation. We're praying hard for the best outcome, and would love for all of you to keep us in your prayers. We're just hoping for an answer soon, because his report date is coming up quickly. We just want to be settled back down, and be together as a family again. Thank you to you all in advance.
Graduation Day and 32 weeks.
I was given such a great baby shower from some dear close friends, my mom, and mother-in-law, on April 2nd. I was blessed with so many beautiful gifts. Lee is defiantly spoiled by so many people, that already love him so much! Thank you to everyone that came, and a special thank you to the ladies who hosted it!!!!!
As you know, R.J. got me a new puppy to help cope with the loss of Gunner. Which was probably the best thing that could help us at the time. His name is Jackson, and though he'll never take Gunners place in our hearts, he is for sure finding and found a new place! He's 6 months old now, and way different than Gunner. He's a mess! Lol! I took him yesterday to get his first groom, and it looks like he lost 5 pounds. I thought he was a chubs, till they trimmed everything off. He's defiantly a blessing to us... even if he's major trouble!

I'm going to get better with keeping up with my blog, especially with having Lee. I just haven't had the time lately, nor did I make the time. I know I'll be even more busier after the baby, but I'll make sure to make the time to update.
Love, The Hairs <3
