Lady: I could NEVER get the Depo shot. My doctor wanted me to get that instead of going completely off the pills but I shot that down. It makes you gain weight, and I need to go in the completely opposite direction. Weight needs to fly off of me before he comes back, not stack on. Plus, being on birth control alone makes it difficult to lose weight, so that's another reason I'm getting off of it until he's on his way back, lol.

Hopeh: I don't blame you. I'm the same way. It's really hard not to, especially when they're gone. Yeah, SEE?! That's why I should just be grateful his is 6 months, but I swear, it doesn't matter how long they're gone it sucks just as much. You can't prepare yourself for it, either. You may think you can, but you really can't. We've known since the middle of my pregnancy that he would be leaving, and it still hit me like a friggin 18-wheeler. Worst car ride home, EVUR.

Aw, feel better soon! And yeah, my cousin's two year old learned how to Sign at his Day Care. I thought that was really cool. He's five now and still Signs. I want Cupcake to learn how to Sign, and I also want her to learn German and Italian.
