on the road again...

corey left me for another mission. 18 days this time. ugh. i got really emotional about it. i just miss him so much when he's gone. 10 days is hard enough... but 18??? lame. i'm sure it will be easier this time around since i've got my family so close. plus, ry will be back up here for this week too. the klahaya days festival here in snohomish runs from the 15th-19th so i'll probably be taking the girls down for that. it should be fun.

in other news, i am 29 weeks pregnant today. i think it's crazy that i'm coming up on 30. it's gone by so freakin' fast!! i'm getting really excited for my first baby shower (july 25th). it will be fun to see all of my friends and i know it's a bit selfish, but i'm so excited to start getting presents!!! like cute little outfits for the little girl. there's nothing cuter than baby girl clothes! =)

the house is really coming along. it looks more and more like a 'HOME' every day. it still gets a bit frustrating from time to time. i can literally see in my mind what i want every inch of the house to look like, but it's all happening so slowly. we just can't afford to go out and buy every single thing we want at once though. so, i guess i can be patient. rylie's room is 100% finished and that makes me really happy. i'm not sure why we chose rylie's room to work on so hard, but we did. there's something about having one room completely finished that really makes me feel at ease. now i can just close that door and move on to the next room... which is ours. it's really coming along too, but i need to get some more wall decor for in there. the living/dining area is completely bare with the exception of our new furniture (which i love). i also bought a great area rug that looks really awesome in there. we still need end tables though, and a hutch for the dining room. but we may be waiting awhile for those things. in the meantime, i'm going to start hunting for wall decor for down there too. it's really fun!

tomorrow i'm going to get rylie from her mom and then we're going to a family reunion at ike kinswa state park just outside of mossyrock. it's probably my favorite reunion of the year. the weather is almost always charming, the food excellent, and the park itself is really fun. it's right on mayfield lake and it's gorgeous. i'm really looking forward to it. the next week, i'll be busy working on the house and keeping the girls entertained... probably hitting up flowing lake a time or two and definitely the klahaya days festival. then i have to attend corey's family reunion at his parents' house in aberdeen on the 19th. i'll hand ry back off to her mom where she'll most likely stay until corey returns. the following saturday is my baby shower. and then sometime after corey's return i have to find time for a belly photo shoot with my dear friend jessica. it's going to be a busy month!

yesterday was my mom's birthday. my little sisters and i baked her a fantastic cake. and today is suzanne's birthday, so happy birthday to you! i hope everyone is enjoying the nice weather. as for me, i'm a hot sweaty mess. but whatev. i still love the sunshine! hope to see you all soon...

xoxoxoxo.
