He left today.... =*(

Well girls, May1 rolled around and Jake left today for Texas for his Flight Engineer training. I won't see him until mid July. His flights were uneventful and he was happy to get settled into his room. We were up early to get him to the airport and once I got home it's been a sort of mopey day. I'm not sad because I know this is wonderful for our family but I still miss him SO MUCH! The kitties are mopey too realizing he's gone. I'm sure I'll be chipper in a few days again and I'm thankful it's not the 4month overseas deployment that he was originally slated for. The house is just sooo quiet. I took a nice relaxing bath but still I just want HUGS from Jake.

I think I'm probably a bit more emotional since I'm in the 2WW and I feel VERY emotional & hormonal. We talked for a good while when he called tonight (he called several times today which was wonderful!) and he asked how soon we could test and I told him next week we should know if this cycle was successful or not. Last night was so nice though, we celebrated our 3rd anniversary early (since it's May 28th) and went to Olive Garden, shopping and then Jake took me to see the movie Baby Mama which was cute. He was so affectionate and kept whispering sweet things and cute comments to me throughout the movie. He was like, Oh that's gonna be you! It was too cute.

My friends have been so sweet and calling all day to check on me. I think I'm going to go tuck in and order an On Demand movie...maybe a funny chick flick. Thanks for letting me get my thoughts off my chest.

I'm sorry! I hope the time flies by until he comes home. I hope you get a BFP this cycle to surprise him with. He sounds very sweet.

Thanks girls!

I just got off the phone with him (lol, battery went dead and I can't find our other one) and it was nice to just chat. I was reading him different articles that we found interesting out of Newsweek while he played Grand Theft Auto IV on his 360. He told me I should start testing daily to use up my internet cheapie tests since I have a ton of them left over from various orders this past year that I never got to use or test with because this is the first time I have ovulated in over a year. I told him I will probably wait until next week to do that. I can tell he's really excited and hopeful. It's so cute.

He's going to pick up the video messenger kit for the xbox and the cam that comes with it so that I can see him and chat with him through MSN IM while he uses Xbox to chat. I thought that was pretty cool and sweet. It's nice to know he misses me. Well I guess I'm going to make some dinner and relax & order a movie. Thanks for letting me ramble.

I hope the time goes by fast for you! And you DH sounds sooooo sweet! Keeping my fingers crossed for your BFP next week! Just think, you possibly aren't waiting alone for your DH to come home!

FyreMommy2B · #14 May 3rd, 2008, 08:03 PM

Aww...thanks Andrea! I never thought of it that way! Right now I'm trying not to read into every little twinge or ache. I don't want to get IPS!!

Oh and now he doesn't want me to test until May 11th! He said he was on the phone with my Dad and telling him how he wanted me to wait to test so he could call my Mom and his Mom to wish them Happy Mother's Day and tell them they are going to be grandma's. And May 11th is his Dad's bday as well. He said my Dad laughed and said "you've been married to my daughter for nearly 3 years! You don't really think she will actually be able to wait and NOT test until then". So Jake was like, c'mon baby and prove us wrong! He is flying up to spend 4th of July with my parents and I think if I am pregnant my parents plan to go in halfsies to fly me down. We have alot of travel going on in the month of August so we're being conservative with finances which is why I'm not flying down like I always do at this time of year.

Pooey! I was going to start testing using the IC cheapies at 10dpo this next Wed. I think I can wait since I am always so skeptical that we'll get a bfp and this is technically my first 2WW ever. It would be a nice suprise to get a BFP on Mother's day though.

Just wanted to jump in and say that I'm sorry you have to be apart. I hope you get your BFP on mother's day - that would be awesome!! Good luck.

I'm sorry that you two have to be away from each other for so long! I know that has to suck! DF and I are going to be seperated for about a month soon when I take a trip up to Michigan cross country to visit family, and he has to stay for his job. I know that you and your husband are going to be seperated for longer, but I totally know where you are coming from! I hope the time passes fast for you two!
