December is upon us and we are so excited to be in a place of our own to have our first family Christmas together. We have the tree out, presents wrapped, and some decorations up. We are getting our stockings from my mother and will get the rest of our decorations in our storage unit next week. I am trying to do my best to get in the Xmas spirit and take ques from my 3 year old, but there is a dark cloud looming over me at all times. Blake is leaving. When he leaves it is going to be the longest 9 months of my life. I'm going to miss his help, love and encouragement. After the first 3 months I know he will only be a phone call away, but I know sometimes that will not be enough. Keira doesn't quite know what is going on. She knows daddy is going to leave for his job and then after a little while we will get to go on a airplane and see him. She was more concerned that daddy wasn't going to see her Ya-Ya without her. lol. It is crazy to think that I'm going to be a single mother for the next 9 months. Something that I have always feared. It is all going to be for the best though. All I have to do is listen to my friends that have done or are doing it right now and take a deep breath. I'm going to stop talking about it right now because I know i will have the next 9 months to blog all about the experience and everything I'm feeling.
On to some better things. Keira is turning 4!!! Crazy!! I blinked and my baby is now a little girl. It is amazing to look at photos and watch videos and see how far she has come. She is such a little adult. Always wanting to help and do everything I am doing. Keira loves to help clean and sings the song, "When will my life begin" from Tangled and of course like any supportive mother I let her clean. lol. Her activities change from day to day, but she loves to color, dance to Michael Jackson, and is now getting into dolls. Oh boy does daddy love that. But it isn't just Barbie dolls, but action figures. She is still obsessed with Spiderman and now loves to watch the Avengers. Blake and I crack up watching her get into the super heroes and explain everything to us even though we are watching the same show. As she is learning about new characters she is slowly giving all of her uncles characters. It is hilarious to hear what she comes up with. Other then that she is a total girlie girl with her clothes and cant wait for me to have another baby. She is always asking her daddy about when there is going to be a baby in my belly. We just tell her it isn't my turn yet but soon. I don't know how long that is going to last because she is one smart cookie. I'm going to end this because I need to try and go to sleep. I don't even know why I am awake at this hour and Blake is sleeping. He is usually the night owl.
Uncles Characters:
Spiderman: Uncle Nate
Captain America: Uncle Justin
The Hulk: Uncle Tim
Iron Man: Uncle Ryan
Green Lantern: Uncle Adam
Wolverine: Daddy ( because she knows how much he loves him)
There will be more to come as she finds more characters she loves. haha
