Memories

... that's what's keeping me going right now. Seeing his pictures, his clothes, smelling his cologne. However, we've only got about 12 weeks left! Holy crap that's not long at all! So mostly I have been filled with nothing but excitement. These are my last 12 weeks alone, then Bryce is home and it's together forever. Nothing could make me happier. I hope he knows how much I love him, and that I would do anything in the world for him and our little family of 6. (okay, maybe not so little!) I've never thought much about a family.. at least not having a huge one! But it couldn't be more perfect. And a few years from now, we'll be complete with 7! 5 kids, 2 adults... outnumbered but hey, at least we'll have fun! I just love how much love there is in this house when all of us are together. The kids playing and laughing, Bryce and I cuddling on the couch. We both get stressed out with them sometimes (like anyone with a 5,4,3,&2 year old would do!!!), but we both know that we really are blessed. We may wake up in the morning to Kennedi screaming, Annabelle putting too much toilet paper in the potty, Taryn whining about being hungry, and Ethan spraying bleach all over his clothes and the tv, but we love them :) I really couldn't be happier with my life. I certainly would be happier at the moment if he was home, but I know it's only temporary... and what's 12 weeks of waiting for a lifetime of happieness?! This semester is FINALLY over! With the exception of an A&P test I still need to take next week. Assuming I do okay on that test (and I think even if I don't) I'll have all A's for the semester! I'm so glad that school is working out for me even though it's been 6 years since high school! I really love my psychology classes and am thinking about going somewhere with that as well. Two degrees? Eh, why not? Kristen the nurse and the psychologist? I can fix you up inside and out! :) The A&P class sucks :( It's not interesting to me AT ALL. I think it was just a really bad choice doing it online. . . taking 4 more classes between now and the first week of August so I should be up to 34 hours by the end of the summer. Score! Ahhh. Time for sleep:) Getting ready for Kennedi's birthday party tomorrow! Since it's 1AM it's now officially her birthday! Happy 2nd Birthday, Kennedi baby! Mommy loves you so much!

Look how tiny she was in my hands!
