Back in Guam and about KB :)

It's been too long since I last wrote.  So much has happened, I don't even know where to begin.  The baby is great, and just this past Sunday we found out that we are having a girl!!  I'm so excited.  I thought it was a boy all along, but I am thrilled for it to be a little girl.  We are going to name her Katherine Elizabeth, but call her Katie Beth.  That's the name my grandfather always wanted to use for a little girl, but he never got the chance.  He told me about that when I was about 7, and it's stuck with me ever since.  I can't wait for him to meet his great-granddaughter!

I spent the past two months in Hawaii with Jason, and it was wonderful.. Except for the fact that we were stuck in a single room hotel room for the entire time..  No bathtub, no kitchen.  I hated that part.  I just got back to Guam yesterday, and I'm so glad to be back in my house!  I'm going to miss him, but he'll be home in just a few days for a school.  He's got a new job on the sub, so he has to come to a 2 week school in Guam for that, and then fly back to Hawaii to ride the boat home.  The Navy doesn't make sense sometimes.

I got to go home while I was in Hawaii, and that was nice.  I miss my family so much when I'm not around them. Especially my grandparents.. and it's not that I miss them more, really, its more that I'm afraid something will happen to them while I'm gone.  They've been such a huge part of my life, that the thought of losing them terrifies me.  I know most people are afraid of that, but it seems like it might be stronger for me.  I'm so lucky to have basically four people who raised me, and not just two.  My parents are the greatest, but theres just something special about being close to your grandparents as well.

There's so much to do since I got back.. I need to get set back up with TriCare Guam since I switched to HI while I was there.  I need to set up my 20 week appointment, and I'm pretty excited about getting to see her again.  I get to start to work on her bedroom, too, and that's super fun.  I think I might wait until Jason is back back before I do that, though.
