I guess it is pretty obvious my patience is running thin. I am sorry for that. I guess I am just ready for you to come home (even if it doesn't sound like it).

I can hardly believe it, but I am 24 weeks pregnant today. 6 months! The excitement over NH2 is really starting to grow within me. At first, I was all kinds of freaked out, but it is funny how your heart just grows and your love expands. I wonder if it is happening for you too? Or if the reality of a new human hasn't really set in since you have been gone. Anyway, here is how we look:

24 weeks along nh2

This morning before we left for the gym, Autumn took my hat off the dresser. She put it on that way!

Cool Autumn, creepy Pepper
Cool Autumn and Creepy Pepper.

Suitcase
She has been lugging that toy all over the place (including upstairs to try and take a nap with it). I swear to you it is as heavy as she is! Those are the Hello Kitty magnets I bought her to play with.

Chalk
She got all excited when she found that box of chalk, but HA! I tossed that chalk away after she colored on the carpet!

Oh no
Autumn was watching Dora and something upset her, she clasped her hands to her face and said, "OH NO!"

Looking at her box
I love that the box has her name on it!

I went to spin class and man I'm telling you, it is HARD! I am hoping that by keeping up with it though that it will translate to an easy delivery come May. It is really working my legs and building up strength in my muscles. Also on the days I go to spin class I go and pump the iron.

Anyway, I'm doing much better today. I love you and miss you.

Your Favorite Wife and Airman. xoxo

Here you go
93 days of missing you!

Autumn and I began the day shoveling the driveway. That is much more work than it sounds like. I had to get us both suited up for the ten degree weather, put her in the backpack, then head on out. It took us about an hour to finish the driveway and when we came back in, poor little Autumn's face had frost nip on it. She has now had frost nip twice. Later today, we went to visit Snowzilla. Frosty the Snowzilla man is huge!!! The local government is trying to put a stop to Snowzilla citing a building code violation. Well, I say down with the man!!!! Keep Snowzilla up. He isn't hurting anything. Anyway, here is a photo of Autumn and me with Frosty the Snowzilla man. Here is a related article in the Anchorage Daily News.

I hear clank, clank, clank in the kitchen. This cannot be good, grab the camera first though- for proof. You never know what you might find. Uh huh! AUTUMN!! What mom? I wasn't doing anything! So I've moved the knives for now, but it is only temporary. They need to go in a locked cabinet. I took Autumn's step stool upstairs to our bathroom so she could brush her teeth. I think I'm going to head back to Target and buy another one. I'm lazy and do not want to drag one up/down the stairs. Autumn really enjoys brushing her teeth.... with MY toothbrush! Say AHHHHHHH- checking to make sure she did a good job. She is so funny. Autumn and I are going to head downtown after nap time to see about the ice sculptures and check out the Christmas lights. Remember that house in South Anchorage that does the Christmas lights to music over FM radio? This year is the last year, he is moving and his new neighborhood cannot support the traffic. He may set them up somewhere e

I've gone back in forth in my mind a million times as to whether or not I should even write what I'm getting ready to write. When I think really hard about it, the truth is, I need to write it. I need the essence of who I am to be preserved somewhere. How I came to the decisions that I did, where my mind was at, where my heart was at in it. I need something that my children can look back on and try to understand me, or at least the essence of me. This tale begins about a month ago. I found a lump in my left breast while I was in the shower. I always do my breast exams in the shower. I'm pretty faithful about it too. About once a month or so, I check around and make sure I don't feel anything weird. That isn't easily done, you see, I have lumpy breasts, so I really don't know what I'm looking for. Lumpy breasts run in my family. This one particular day, about a month ago, I felt something that felt weird to me, but I was unsure about it.
