SO, it has been just about three weeks since my husband has left for deployment and i have been one busy bee. First with having to move from San Diego to Colorado Springs, change PCM's for me and my daughter (which is so hard to find a Dr. at 36 weeks pregnant), deal with tricare and deers and just plain old trying to get settled in. basically now...i just want this baby to come out :] i am 38+2 weeks pregnant and let me tell you...my poor body can hardly handle this anymore.
the fatigue is wearing me down and i can hardly play with my daughter which makes me sad because i dont want her to think that i dont want to play with her....i just physically cant without feeling awful pain in my tailbone.Thank goodness for both me and my husbands family. they have all been amazing with helping me out and showing Cheyenne all the attention she deserves since i cant give her all of that.My husband and I are so lucky to have such wonderful family.
Anyway....point is....Baby Carson, im ready whenever you are!
So having said all that, i have been staying busy by preparing care packages for Spencer.i received an email this morning that he got his first package a few days ago!! he loved it. I want to share the packages with all of you and i hope this could give inspiration to your own care packages as well!
Care Package One
i did not decorate this package because i was so anxious just to get it to him!
it includes:
- Magazines & Newspapers
- Pens (he's a pen theif)
- gold bond foot powder
- deodorant
- extendable back scratcher (he said it was his most proud item int he box)
- boot insoles
- macadamia nuts
- sour cherry bombs
- beef jerky
- granola bars
- nail clippers
- loofa
- toothbrush sanitizer
- to go snapple
- air freshners that smell like home
- chapstick
- flossers
- and some games, pictures, and cards from family members.
Bed, Bath, and Beyond is one of my favorites to get things because they ahve the most ridiculous stuff that always makes my husband laugh like the back scratcher...lol
Care Package Two the birthday box!
Spencer's birthday is september 21st but with the new baby coming soon, ill be really busy.
Cheyenne helped decorate the outside
she did NOT like the paint lol
Back to the future theme
Devils food cake in a jar for him and three other buddies
(im sure he'll keep them for himself )
since you cant send aerosol cans of icing get the tub of icing OR these awesome icing baggies!
they are easier to fit int he box and they can squirt it inside the jar!

- shoe polish kit
- cooling towel
- wet suit anti chafe
- part poppers
- razors
- shaving cream (non aerosol)
