Its only been 24 days since you left.

This week wasn't terrible. Ottos school was closed on Monday so Erin and I both took half days and switched at 1230 to stay home with him. It was nice to sleep in a little and hang out with him in the morning. We  had spinach strawberry waffles (I blended them up and put them in the batter because this fool doesn't like to eat his veggies anymore) and watched Trolls on Netflix. 

I also went to Naval on Monday to take what I thought was going to be a blood test but was actually just a pee test to confirm baby. I was also told that the OB is so filled with pregnant girls that they will most likely have to refer me to a doctor out in town... GREAT. I'm really not excited about it but will find out more when I go to my first appointment. The first one is just paperwork and basic vitals. I made it on a day that mom will be here. Im going to surprise and tell her then. Once I get the first ultrasound around 10+ weeks I'll send something to everyone else. 

I sent your package out that morning also. I expect it to get to you in about 2 weeks. Oh and I totally forgot to tell you. Sate Farm sent us a that check and it was for $750. I deposited it into your savings. I guess I was pretty productive that day. 

Its been so hot here. The news said the ocean was almost 80 degrees. I attempted to do a little yard work with Erin but Otto wasn't having it. This is what happened. 

Also, he totally face planted. 

Jesse will be home in 2 months already! We've been on the lookout for an apartment for the 2 of them. Just a heads up, they will probably take the old couches and maybe the old entertainment center if they want it. Ive been talking to him a lot about proposing to Erin and apparently (eye roll) hes been talking to her about it too. Her and I are going to look at a wedding venue tomorrow and 2 next weekend. She doesn't know when hes going to do it but knows it'll be before Christmas. The actual plan still is to propose at his homecoming... AND I already have the ring! Jesse and his mom had it sent here last week (no Erin doesn't know I have it.. I think). She has everything planned already. They're going to the courthouse and apparently I will be the only one there as a witness and the plan is to not tell ANYONE. They want to have their ceremony and reception in March (because thats when Jesses brothers have spring break and because you'll be home). Anyways we're just brainstorming and planning away. Colors, favors, bridal party, all that cool stuff. 

We're staying busy babe. I love you, stay safe. 

5 weeks- Baby is the size of an appleseed.
