So exausted

I have not been sleeping well at all lately: Between the deployment and trying to get comfortable because of being pregnant. It really is not awesome. I think it may be a good day for a nap later. The bathroom is clean, but i need to tidy up around the house. I'm sure I will soon. I think in order to get my butt in gear, i'll have to make a list and focus. I'm really lucky in that I've gotten to talk to Mike a lot lately. I'm not complaining. It's kind of hard to believe that its been almost two weeks. Time is slipping away thankfully. only about 17 weeks until my due date. I hope Evelyn comes relatively on time. I can't wait until it's me, mike and Evelyn. I have photos scheduled for late December after she's born! I can hardly wait for everything. She's going to be so beautiful. I've been keeping really active and walking a lot. Last night, she wedged herself into my side and wouldn't move when I was going on a hike. What a little stinker.

Over a week down in this deployment

I got two boxes sent out to Mike today. $25 isn't all that bad. Evelyn has been super active lately, moving around a ton. I can't wait until December to meet our little girl. The money situation isn't too bad off these days. I'm pretty good at creatively budgeting. I miss Mike but it's not unbearable. I got to talk to him a few days ago. Hopefully communication will get better, but as long as he's safe, it's all good. I've decided i'm going to end up doing the bulk of the baby shopping in October/November. Mike says buy whatever I want/need for Evey.

20 weeks today


on the left, the arrow pointing to the lack of penis. the fist pump on the right.
Had my 20 week ultrasound today. Baby is stubborn. kept moving and moving around some more. Everything measured great! For most of it, baby was facing the wrong way and teasing us, but finally little Evelyn proved to be a girl. A stubborn little girl. she kept swimming away from the ultrasound tech.
