Over-compensating...

So to follow up with yesterdays pot, I went a little over board with being productive and organized today. I worked on my new YouTube channel (Omeed wanted me to join on the gaming venture with him). That link will be at the end of this post. I also worked on the channel art for both of our pages today. The link for his will be at the end as well. Feel free to go check those out. I also wrote out a schedule for his video postings (he would like to do them daily) to work around his work schedule. Then I played some Kingdom Hearts Final Mix. I am trying to 100% that game and boy is it time consuming! I am, also, overly organized with that game as well!

Of course, most of all that I did today will fly right out of the window for a while once Lilly arrives. At least it is all started and ready to go when we will be able to get back to it. It is something fun to occupy spare time with, and if you really enjoy it, I can see how it easily turns into a hobby. I would do it regularly for sure!

In other news, my mom and brother are driving down tomorrow! I am so darn excited it is a little ridiculous. Then Lilly can join us any day! She just has to wait until her Grandma gets here to decide to make her entrance into the world. So far, it looks like she may make us wait a few extra days anyways, but then again you never know!

In random news, Miss Congeniality is playing on the TV in the living room and I am quoting it as I am typing. I don't know how many times I have had to go back and fix a sentence because I start typing out what I am quoting! Haha! Well I feel like being productive again so off I go to find something to do!

My biggest adventure yet....

Hello again, friends and family. As you all know I will be embarking on my biggest adventure yet. I am going to be a mom. With Lilly's due date being a week from today it has really hit me that I have no idea what to do. I know things will come to me instinctually, but in the mean time it makes me more nervous than I thought it would. 

I do have the best support system I could ask for, though. My mom and brother will be driving down in about 4 1/2 days to be here for her birth and to help out for a bit. I know they aren't going to want to go home, though. I get to visit them later in February so it won't be too bad. 

Lilly is going to have the greatest dad she could ever imagine. Omeed has been the biggest help throughout the pregnancy. He understands everything going on with my body, and that I can't do things I am normally capable of doing on my own (like turning over in bed, or even getting out of bed). He helps every way he can. The most beautiful thing about him is that he already loves his daughter more than anything else and can't wait for her to be here. He has been excited since the very beginning and I find that incredible. Especially with him being so young. Yes, I am young myself, but he is 3 years younger than I.

His family has been very supportive as well. I thank them for letting me live with them and essentially become a part of their family in such a small amount of time, and in the most unconventional way.

I have decided that since most of my family and friends live so far away I will start to use this more often to share Lilly with everyone. I will post pictures and videos on a regular basis for everyone to see in one spot, instead of having to go on Instagram, Facebook and YouTube. Everything will still be on those sites but this will have it all! :)

I am also happy to announce that Omeed is getting his video gaming YouTube channel up and running again. It is something he really enjoys doing and is excited to get going again. 

Well, I'm off to enjoy a nice 70-something degree so-cal January day. Have a beautiful day everyone!

Giving thanks...

This adventure that Tim and I have started has been amazing. We have our own apartment, a wonderful dog and an absolutely amazing relationship. I am thankful for all of those things and so much more. I am thankful for all the support we have received from both of our families. We could not have done any of this with out their love, support and help. So to our families, I say "Thank you!"

I would also like to give thanks to the new friends that Tim has made, they may not realize it, but they have made things so much easier for us out here.

I would also like to say thanks to my hobbies, because if it weren't for them I would probably gone insane. Since I have been unable to find a job since we have moved to Anaheim, I spend all my time in the apartment. My hobbies and creativity have kept me sane! Haha.

I would like for everyone to take a moment and be thankful for everything you have in life. All the little things you do for yourself, or others, that makes you happy. For all the smiles, laughs, and good times you have had. Just be thankful.
