Hormones? I think so :)

Hello everyone! I hope you all are having a nice day! As for us out here in Washington, we are doing well. We went to the circus on my birthday, and Ami loved it! She hardly sat in her chair, but she was dancing and shakin her booty the whole time. It was so cute to watch. That was what I wanted for my birthday. I love spending time with my family, I would rather have that than any gift. The elephants freaked me out, because we were in the second row, maybe 20 feet away from them. So the whole time I couldn't enjoy watching them, instead I was thinking of an escape plan! The rest of the show was awesome though! Some of the things those people do are crazy! Motorcycles on a tight rope, guys flippin around (while wearing no shirts lol), and girls hanging from a rope from their hair! It was crazy. I couldn't take my new camera in, and my phone wasn't getting good pictures because of all the lights.

That day was pretty much the only good day I have had in about a week. Anyone who has ever been pregnant, knows how crazy your emotions can get. One minute, I'm happy, the next, i'm crying and have no idea why. One day corey brought home Krispy Kreme, and I cried because it sounded so good i couldn't handle it lol. But lately, I don't know if i just miss home, or if there is seriously something wrong with me! Who am I kidding, I know i miss everyone in Cali. I miss my dad's cooking, I miss watching shows with my mom, I miss going into my sister's room to borrow something and practially running out because of the hairspray fumes ha. I miss my brother's humor, we can joke about everything. I miss my youngest brother's preteen attitude (believe it or not). I miss my friends, Nikkie, Drea, Christina, Tricia, Amanda, Raven. I even miss a very old friend who i haven't seen in probably 5 or 6 years (Sara). I miss being able to just go visit my extended family too (in-laws).  Being here, I know maybe a few people, but it seems like people around us don't really bother getting to know each other because there is always a cycle of new people coming in. Just since we came in March, I have seen 4 house on our street alone get new families. So I understand not wanting to get close to people. I found a group online for Ft. Lewis moms, and that was fun, and i met a couple nice girls.  I don't know, lately i feel very down, and we haven't even had rainy weather. Imagine how it's gonna be when the rain comes back! ugh.

And now, it's starting to effect my husband too. I honestly don't know how i got so lucky with someone as amazing as Corey, and most of you reading this have had the pleasure of meeting him. But he has seem more on edge lately, and I know it's because i am first. I am so hormonal, and homesick, and just plain uncomfortable 24/7. Who else am i supposed to take it out on right? Wrong. Yes, he is the only one around (besides our 2 year old), so i guess it seems easiest to complain to him about everything. But i have noticed him being in a bad mood too lately, and let's face it, that's not Corey. But anytime i ask him what's wrong, it's nothing, and he doesn't want to fight about it. I know he's probably irritated with me, because i'm difficult, i know that. I have a bad temper normally, and that's hard to admit, but it 's true. I'm not saying i'm gonna punch you out if you look at me weird, but people just annoy me lol. But if you add pregnancy hormones to that, oh boy watch out. Now the way i have learned to not cause problems, is to just stay quiet when something is annoying me, but of course, that makes corey ask me waht's wrong. repeatedly. and THAT annoys me. Just leave me alone. I feel bad, because i'm causing him to be on edge now. Anyway, i feel like i'm kind of rambling right now, and corey's got this towing show on that's really interesting haha. So i'm just gonna end it here. Basically if you pray, than feel free to pray for me and my family, just for peace, and patience. I can't wait to go home! If you don't, well send me a text to cheer me up now and then! lol I miss you all!

Also, take a moment to remember all those lives lost on 9/11 ten years ago, and for the families of those people. It was such a tragic day, and it kinda makes me feel silly for being annoyed that the juice was left out :p
