My SIL,Kristen, taking her inspiration from this post came up with a clever way to count-down till "go time" for Johnathan. I came home to a bag she had left on my front porch and inside I found these....
They are HO-HO's if you can't tell from the bad photography! One for each each day until he leaves. I think not only did she think it would be a FUN way to count-down the days, but there might have been mention of an intervention to cure me of my "problem".
HI-LAR-I-OUS!
9....9 days to go!!!
Or 8 if I get the munchies... :)

What a sweet SIL that you have!! And such a fun idea...something to look forward to each day while you are counting down!!
Enjoy your Ho Ho's : )
That is just too creative!! To me, THIS wait, is the hardest of all.... What a sweet SIL you have.
Blessings,
Carla
What a cute idea! And your wait is almost over!!
Hysterical, creative and sweet...all at the same time. Love it! Ang
That is so fun! What a hoot! super clever she is and what a great way to bring joy to the anticipation of your new baby coming home!
Sending hugs,
Shelley
OH .... and I have added a post regarding the "matter" we have emailed about previously....
Love you!
Shelley
what a great idea! i'm excited for you and your family!
Since I'm more of a Little Debbie eater, I didn't recognize those HO HO packs right away... I thought they were refill packs of WIPES! How sad!!
Wow, you and those HO HOs are gonna have a great time while your man is away :)
YIPPEEEE, only 9 more days 'til CHINA!!!!
Staf-
You are crackin me up.. wipes? really? I can spot a HO-HO pack from about a mile away. So much I can teach you girl!
And what makes you think those will still be around by the time he travels? It's like you don't even know me! ;)
Actually, she intended for me to eat a HO-HO a day until he leaves.. she has 13 too... I think she was hoping by doing that.. I would never want to see a HO-HO again.. as I mentioned, an intervention of sorts. She's a good friend that way.
Why am I sitting here typing this to myself instead of e-mailing you, when you aren't even going to read this.. I have HO-HO brain..
;)
Amie
This is so cute!!
Counting right along with you!!
Lisa
Bless her heart - she's FUNNY, like you :) Can't wait to meet your son!
So your SIL is secretly trying to sabotage my diet now, by forcing you to post pictures of Ho-Hos? Wait - oh, yeah - it's not all about ME!!! ;)
She is truly very sweet. And I can't wait to see you meet your son.
OH what a sweet idea....it won't be long now!!!!
Blessings,
Denise
A Ho-Ho a day keeps the frustration at bay!! (Does that sound so much better than an apple?) I actually thought they might be Chocodiles. YummY!!!
Tell your SIL she rocks!
I love it! I don't know about the intervention though, It is just more of a reason to want to eat the yummy snack cakes! I can't wait to see your journey. So exciting!
Now I don't feel so bad. I thought they were packages of baby wipes too. :-) Glad to hear they are much more fun!!
What a great SIL to give you something to look forward to each day. Enjoy your treats!!
This is too cute! 9 days to go yeah!!!
Jen
Dang. I thought they were packages of wipes too. Is it silly of me to be so excited for you all that I have butterflies in my tummy reading this post?!?!?!?
Or maybe that is just my tummy grumbling thinking about those Ho-Ho's
Hey-If you have any extra HO HO's...Send em' to Kansas! This mama NEEDS EM!
What a blessing to have a SIL that KNOWS YOUR NEEDS!
Not that anyone reads comments (except me!) but the 2nd part of my plan is to make us hate Ho-Ho's, make us never want to buy, see or eat a Ho-Ho again.
Unfortunately, I am not getting sick of mine yet.
8 more to go. We'll see what happens.
And yes, I did travel to Florida with them this week.
I am that crazy.
Just to catch me up..You leave in 8days to get your little boy? Just want to make sure I have it right!
THANKS A LOT! While at the store tonight for my weekly trip before hubby leaves tomorrow, I THOUGHT OF YOU and bought a whole package of DING DONGS!! I have decided in honor of Johnathan, I too will be joining you in the HO HO DING DONG eat a thon! Each time I eat my Ding Dong, I will think of and pray for your family! MUCH LOVE!

Too funny!! What a cute idea! I am counting down the days with you! I can't wait to see that sweet baby boy home with his mama.
I love your heart and for all the giveaway posts above this one. You are so sweet!
Love,
Monica
Yummy! What a cute idea!
