its been a while.

I haven't exactly been around much, I don't feel like I have much to say even.  The month of June has been a very very busy month for me.  I've spent a good amount of time in South Carolina with my in-laws and then I spent 9 days at home visiting my family & friends.  I wish it was easier to go home & not worry about my house here in NC.  Its not like I love this place, but I guess it would be nice to have a home to come back to haha!

Speaking of our house here.  We've extended our lease to go until the end of January.  I have talked to the owner & he agreed to pay for the materials to paint this place & I will cover the labor.  My MIL will do the painting for us, she likes to paint.  I hope she doesn't feel like I'm putting her out.  I know she's excited that I've asked her to paint the nursery.  When the changes here start happening & become finished I will take pictures and post them.  I'm excited to turn this place into a home rather than it just be a townhouse.  The guy that lived here before smoked,  when we moved in the place must have been aired out well because I couldn't smell it... but boy scrubbing the walls, doors & frame work certainly allows you to see it.

Cam & I have been planning and searching for a new car since this time last year.  I finally bought one, brand new off the lot 2 miles on it.  It's a 2010 Honda CR-V, light green.  I love it, it rides sooo smooth & handles great.  He still has his little single cab Chevy truck (for the record I hate that truck), but I'm looking to replace it sooner than later with a SUV or an extended cab truck.  I need to feel like if he was driving our daughter that she is in the safest vehicle & in the most safe spot in that vehicle, that truck gives me none of those feelings & I don't want us to have only one car/truck/whatever that she can ride in.

Speaking of Saige,  I am 26 weeks and 2 days pregnant today.  My little wiggle-worm has definitely been very very active lately, it makes me giggle.  Somedays I feel like she is trying to pull my lungs away from my ribcage by putting her leg/arm in between the two, but I'm thankful I get to know that feeling.  I had my glucose test today, hopefully I pass it although I have no doubt that I will.  I'm really starting to show now & my boobs are still growing!  It is very exciting to have boobs- well bigger than what I'm used to.  Speaking of my boobs, last night I noticed my right boob was leaking... GROSS GROSS GROSS!!!!

Cam is doing well, I don't get to talk to him hardly at all since about June.  When he does call its about a week or more in between calls & he can only talk for about 2 minutes.  However, I'll take what I can get- I'm just glad there's something so that I can know he's alive, well, & he gets to hear my voice and I can semi update him on what's going on.  I can't believe he's been gone for as along as he has & supposedly he doesn't have that much longer before he comes home.  I'm not holding my breath though, I know how the army likes to write details in pencil.

So, my heart has been in two different places this past week.  A friend of mine from high school lost her baby girl.  She was only a few weeks behind me in her pregnancy & just randomly went into labor & there wasn't really anything done or that could be done to stop it.  She ended up delivering her baby & got to spend 7 hours with her.  I hate that she & her boyfriend are going through this, especially since there is nothing you can do to make it better.  I know she's a strong woman & in time will find peace but until then, I'll be sending her tons of positive vibes and thoughts & ask that any of you can do the same for her.  Another friend of mine gave birth to her baby boy.  He is BEAUTIFUL!!!  I'm so proud of her & her husband.  It was the neatest thing, he got to watch their baby be born via skype!  She had a c-section and according to her is healing well.  She is trying to breastfeed but Grayson is having a little trouble latching on, so please send her some good breastfeeding vibes!

Ok, Reese & I are going to go watch a movie, thank you for reading.
