Homecoming, Moving & a Baby???!!!

It's all starting to dawn on me, my life is about to get CRAZY! Well I should say, crazier then now!
Once this summer is over, which I am almost certain will FLY by, theres so much I need to prepare for.

Homecoming!!!
You all know how I do with our homecomings!! I go over and beyond! This homecoming will be no different, maybe a bit more special since this will be our last homecoming for who knows how long!! Which I am A-OK with!! I start my homecoming preparations a few months in advance, so needless to say soon, but not very soon, I will be starting all of that!!! I can NOT wait!!!
I have already come up with what one of my banners will say!! It's classic!!
I should just have one say..."I'm tired of making signs....so here's your sign" LMAO
Just kidding, I do love making signs!!

We are now just about 25% done!! 
Still a while to go but as long as it flys by, we'll be good!!

Moving!!
 Once we get to June, we'll have 7 months left on the East Coast!!
7 Months!!!
I have already started the "de-clutter process" I went through my entire laundry room and kitchen, and threw away everything that I havent touched or thought about in the last 6 months. 
It took me a few days and a lot of thought to throw some of the stuff away but ultimately we haven't bothered with a lot of the stuff in a long time.
There's still sooo much to be done. 
I want to have most of it all done by the time Jimmy gets home so its one less thing on our "to-do" list and some more quite time we get with each other!
I want to make this move as stress/worry free as possible.
We are lucky enough to have 7-8 months to prepare for it, I could not imagine having a month or two to get ready for a cross country move.
I'm ready for this new, exciting journey. It's going to be a huge change for me, but im ready for it and willing!

A Baby???!!!
Yep! A baby! & No, I am NOT pregnant right now!
For a while now we have been talking about when we want to try for #4, which will be our last.
Jimmy was all for any time, it was myself who keeps putting it off and wanting to wait it out.
I want there to be a nice gap between Paisley and the baby, but after thinking about it hard, I don't want a HUGE gap! I have had babies 18 months apart and 2 years apart and it was not bad at all.
Since Audrianna is already in school, Ella starts in the fall, it will just be Paisley and I during the day.
So why not try sooner?
So with some thought, I finally decided I want another baby sooner then later!!
Jimmy and I talked about when we would like to start trying, and have finally decided when we want to try.
This will be our first really thought out/planned pregnancy!!
We've had the surprise babies, and the "if it happens it happens baby" 
So im sure with us planning this, it might take some time. But who knows it may happen right away!
Everyone keeps asking..."Trying for a Boy??"
Were trying for a BABY!! Of course we would LOVE to have a boy, so if we are blessed with having a boy, we have a boy, but if its another girl...we will be blessed again!!
This next pregnancy I will be doing everything possible to NOT find out the gender!
We want to be surprised!!!
Lots of change coming for us!! We couldn't be more excited about everything!!!

Everyone, continue to pray for Jimmy, his platoon, and all the other Men fighting over there!!!

  2. "We've had the surprise babies, and the "if it happens it happens baby"
    Tell me about it girl!! I am right there with you, It would be so great to have a planned one for once, but a blessing none the less! I wish yall luck in the move & the next year, its goign to be an AWESOME roller coaster!! <3

    p.s. A sign like "I ran out of things to put on this after deployment #3." would be too funny! <3
