Signature

Thanks to Jenn over at My Life So Far I have a new signature!! Thankfully there are people out there who actually aren't completely incompetent in how to make pretty designs on the computer. haha.

Thanks Jenn!

TOMORROW!!!

Tomorrow morning at 6:30 AM I will be arriving at the hospital for my c section! :-) If all goes smoothly the doctor said we should have our baby girl by 7:30! A quick slice, grab and sew and it's all done!

Sure the recovery is going to be a million times worse than a natural birth but at least I wont have to wait too long to meet our little girl!!

I can't wait to share pictures with you all so stay posted because I'm sure they will be on here either later tomorrow night or Thursday.

I'm going to be a mommy tomorrow!!! :-) YAY!

Oh. In the mean time... does anyone want to make me a cute signature? I have no idea how to do those and I would love one :-) It just has to say Mrs. Sykes and be as creative as you want to be :-)

I will love you forever :-)

Talk to you soon!

Two days...

We have 2 days until our little girl is born, or surgically removed, however you want to look at it.

That's 2 days! As in tomorrow, I will be able to say that tomorrow she is going to be here. How ridiculous is that? I don't even know what to do with myself.

This was my first thought this morning and now I'm just in this state of shock. This time has flown by and these next 2 days are going to as well. Today was supposed to be a nice day. It's warm but foggy. Either way it's my last full day at home to get things cleaned, organized, or whatever else needs to be done.

Tomorrow at 9 I have to go in for pre op blood stuff. I don't know how long that is going to take but I know that makes my day go faster. And then Wednesday morning I will be going into the hospital!

AHHH!!!! So much to do. I'm so excited!

Date night!!

I know, I know. 2 posts in one day. You'll get over it ;-)

Tonight my husband and I are going out to dinner. This is quite possibly the last time we will be going out alone for a while. At least for a year most likely.

This is our last weekend without a baby so we need to celebrate. Which translated into our terms means going out to dinner tonight and then probably sleeping the rest of the weekend. We are just that exciting :-) haha.

Anyways, just wanted to share our monumental moment.

Preparations

I'm trying to keep my head intact but it feels like it's spinning a mile a minute.

Yesterday the hubs and I got our storage unit. We got the smallest one so we are hoping everything fits. We aren't storing any furniture except our bed frame, headboard and footboard. (which will be taken apart for more space). Other than that all we have to store is my husbands extremely heavy tool box and 6 plastic tote bin things. Possibly some last minute things that we didn't remember we had also.

I've been debating on bringing my golf clubs back to NY or not. If there is room in our unit for them I will probably store them.

Tomorrow my husband is borrowing a friends truck to move his extremely heavy tool box and as many of the totes as we can into the unit. We can't move them all obviously because we are still using a lot of things in the house such as kitchen supplies. And when I say extremely heavy tool box I mean it. It almost fell on me once and it would have crushed my bones easily.

He is bribing his friend into helping him by promising him I'll cook lasagna for dinner. He never actually asks me if I want to do anything he just promises I'll cook things and then tells me. Men.

Anyways, since things are starting to be moved tomorrow my to do list today consists of organizing and packing as much as I can into those totes. At least it's something to keep me busy.

On a lighter note... this is our last weekend ALONE! Abigail will be joining us Wednesday so this is our last weekend of freedom I guess you could say. haha. We don't have any plans, of course, but I'm sure we will at least go out to dinner. I'm still 9 months pregnant and not into walking lol.

I'm so excited to meet our baby girl but also a complete wreck at the same time. I'm still thinking about the move back to NY and how I really hope it's no where near as stressful as I feel like it's going to be.

My mom, mother in law, and father in law will be down to help me move but for some reason I just feel like this is going to be a trip from hell.

In my head all I can think about is traveling with a newborn. We will have to stop when she needs to be fed and burped. When on road trips I like to stop every couple hours to pee but feeding is going to take like 30 minutes or more and therefore will make our 13 hour trip probably more like 48 hours. It's 13 hours if you drive straight through which we weren't planning on doing anyways but just for an idea I said that.

We will see how it all goes. There is always the option of pumping and feeding her while driving to save some time but that's such a hassle as well.

OH and we can't forget my puppers. I don't think anyone can understand how much I love my dog. He is very much part of my family and always will be. So much so that I hate the thought of being away from him. It would be so easy if I could just send him back home with my grandma when she drove down but the idea of thinking of him being without me for a couple days makes me really sad lol.

I know it probably sounds really pathetic but my dog is a very needy dog. He doesn't do well with eating after car rides in the first place. It always takes him a day or more to start eating and he doesn't do it regularly. I have to be standing right there while he eats or else he wont. I think he just likes his routines at home.

Ok, now that you know how crazy I am...

We have a lot going on in the Sykes' residence. I will of course keep you posted.

If you made it this far Kudos to you!

Followers

I just realized that I have a lot more followers than blogs I follow. So I have a task for you.

If you follow my blog but I don't follow yours, leave me a comment so I can come return the favor :-)

Thanks!

Opinions

I need some opinions. If someone doesn't show their emotions often or at all should that just be accepted as who they are or should one attempt to pull those emotions out?
I just think it's important to vocalize things such as excitement, pain, or happiness. To me it's important to feel someones emotion.
I constantly wonder if I can't tell.
Do I just ask for too much or is that something normal to ask for?
Do lots of people not show their emotions except on occasion?
