Hubby isn't just Hubby, he is Super Hubby

So in these past few days, I have come to realize how ever blessed I am to have such an amazing Husband. Super Hubby is about to soon be Super Daddy and in waiting, and waiting even more, for our Little Sunshine to arrive, I have come to appreciate him more and more. Here are just a few of the reasons why:

1. He is not only an amazing provider but protector of his family. He knows exactly when to come to my aid and stand up for me and when to let me fight my own battles. He is my knight in shining armor.

2. He is supportive and honest in anything I want to dream and aspire to do. Whether if it's playing with a new cupcake recipe to being a mom to being a business owner. He is honest but he is nothing short of extra supportive. For this Super Hubby, I am always grateful.

3. He gets me. You don't understand, he truly gets me. My best friends and I have a way of talking to one another, a second language in a sense, and can come off very strange to any normal person sitting next to you at Starbucks. But whether he gets it or not, he goes along, no matter how silly. He sometimes starts it. You have no idea how many people never got me growing up, let alone dating.

4.  He takes care of me. This past week or two, have been very physically and even emotionally difficult for me and waiting on our Little Sunshine. With that plus getting the house renovated, moving, and unpacking, he has let me do what I need to do. Some days I can not do a whole lot and I feel guilty when little to nothing gets done that day (I hate not being productive, I have 7 tabs up right now with various things to do) and he has worked all day. In this adjustment period, he has been there and supported me 100%. And when I need dinner to be fixed or something lifted, he never complains or second guesses anything. This is truly amazing.

5. He always tries to make me happy or laugh. We hate to see each other sad, grumpy, or angry, but tis is life. But when I am not well or down, he naturally tries to make me laugh or cheer me up. Super Hubby has no idea how much I notice this and love him so much for it.

6. He always seeks adventure. When I say this, he always tries to push me a little out of our comfort zone and tries to help us grow as a couple. I love you Super Hubby for this.

7. I am a little crazy and that's OK with him. There are times where a girl just needs to cry or get upset over something completely pointless. For this, he lets me cry it out and do what I need to do. I kid you not there are times, even before pregnancy, that I get upset and I know it's over something

8. He is going to be an amazing dad. Little Sunshine isn't here yet, but he is so ready to be a dad and he is going to be amazing. I can tell because he already tries to play and take care of his daughter.

9. And lastly, he loves me. Without a doubt he loves me with all his heart and that is all a girl could ever ask for. I can tell from the way he chews or kisses my hand to the way he just looks at me.

We are not the perfect couple, far from it, but we are perfect for one another. And that is what a girl in this big world looks for, someone that is perfect for her. It isn't easy and it never comes right away, but for me I found my soul mate, and I am lucky and blessed to call him my husband. So Super Hubby, soon-to-be-super-Daddy, this post is dedicated to you and to share with everyone how amazing you are. For more moments of Living, Laughing, and Loving, I can not wait to share them with you.

Love Always and Forever,

Your Almost Two Best Girls <3

Just Want to Put on a Pair of Pants

So first off, it was my lovely Husband that reminded me that I haven't written in over 4 months. For that I do sincerly apologize. These past four months have been crazy times for us. We bought a house, renovating the house, moving, quitting and getting everything closed off at my job, and if you don't recall, getting ready to have a baby.

So now that we are so close to having our little girl, Little Sunshine, I just wanted to reflect on life as a pregnant woman. Before I continue on, I have loved every moment of being pregnant with our little girl and wouldn't trade this experience for anything. We are so excited and can not wait for her to get here!! Even though I was warned by my mother and vetran's of the pregnancy race, let me tell you that last month or two is HARD. So if you are ever bored, you should try moving and renovating a house being 8.5+ months pregnant. It's so much fun, let me tell ya.

But with her impending arrival within a week, here are the things I will look forward to after having my body back:
1. Being able to bend over without moaning.
2. Being able to put on pants without grunting or assistance.
3. In addition to number 3, a pair of damn panties!
4. Not looking like, as my husband likes to say, 11 months pregnant.
5. Having my ankles back, I have perpetual elephant ankles now.
6. Getting the desire to drink coffee again
7. Being able to lift a box without my hand being slapped.
8. Being able to eat any kind of sushi again
9. Being able to have a cold salami sandwich.
10. To be able to see my feet again!

But all said and done, people tell me to enjoy these last few days of quiet and time to myself. That might be true, but I honestly can not wait regardless of the feedings every two hours. I always wanted to be a mother and here are the ten things I genuinely look forward to, after Little Sunshine comes:
1. Being able to call her mine.
2. Seeing her face for the first time
3. In line with number 3, seeing what features she has of mine or darling Husband.
4. Touching her soft skin.
5. Counting her little fingers and toes.
6. Seeing Darling Husband hold her for the first time (I will probably cry more than a baby).
7. Seeing her fall asleep.
8. Watching her sleep on her Dad's chest.
9.  Seeing Hubby watch her first Ranger's game together.
10. Seeing her grandparents and other family hold her for their first time.

So yes I might get sleep deprived for a while and have some frustrations, but I welcome them. It's part of this new chapter in our life that I welcome with open arms and would not trade it for the world. It's crazy how soon our lives are going to drastically change. If you asked me a year ago if I was going to have a child, I would have said maybe not yet, but now I can not imagine my life not being so close to having her. So to my Little Sunshine, when you are old enough to do a google search and find this post, I can not wait till you get here and every day after that. You are already the light of our lives and we love you so much. Till you get here, we will wait, even though we don't want to any longer.

Oh and I am sorry about Dad tickling your feet so much, he already loves your little toes and loves feeling them through Mommy's belly. He loves playing "find your feet" with you. Don't worry, he is ticklish there too, so use it to your advantage later.

Live, Laugh, Love!
