whirl wind

Oh My Gee!! Hello All You Wonderful People!!



I am so sorry that I have been MIA! It has been one CRAZY whirl wind. So lets play catch up.
So Thomas and I FINALLY found a church that we love! It is a baptist chuch here in Puyallup, called: Bethany Baptist. The church itself is beautiful! The people there are so nice and welcoming and beautiful as well. I can feel God's love there too. The nursery is so great too! Xavier loves it. I am able to check on him anytime while we are there. He is always having so much fun! We go to the Sunday school there and then we go to the 3rd service.

Also on a WODNERFUL news! Xavier is crawling!!! :) So Sunday, Aug 21st after we got home from church I set him on the floor and went to make lunch. He just like started crawling it was so awesome and I love it! I got a video so I will post videos and pictures so ya'll can see. As well as if your on my facebook you can see them all there too! So it has been so crazy, good & emotional. My lil boy is growing so fast. Time is literally FLYING by. Sunday he started crawling. Monday he was pulling himself up in the crib. Then he started trying to pull himself up everywhere.. which led to booboos :( But he is all good. He then started standing with one hand. It is so crazy! Then he turned 7 months on September 1st. I can't believe it.!
He should not be doing this til like 9months! The doctore always tells us how advanced he is but like I just can't get over it. Specially when I see other babies that are his age or around his age and I am always taken back bc is doing more than they can.

Also with time flying by it leads me to a roller coaster. It is awesome and amazing to see my son grow up and change literally daily. But it is sad because it is all happening so fast. Then there is the fact that as time flies by us... we are getting so close to having to say "good bye" to Thomas for 12-18 months. That i will be here doing work, school, a single mom. It is gonna be hard and I know we can do and will come out stronger but doesn't mean I am not wanting time to slow down til then and let us enjoy our time! Ya know...
Well I am also working full time. I am nannying for 2 families. So I watch 3 kids (including mine.) A lil girl that is so sweet and cute that is 5 months old. A lil boy that is adorable and he is 17months old. Then I have my son! I love childcare.. to be able to play and have fun and teach the kids new things. It is a wondeful feeling. Plus it does give my son socialization.

 Oh I also have School at Pierce College that starts Sept. 21st! I am excited and nervious all at the same time. Right now my classes are online. So trying to balance: being a full time mom and wife, working full time, gettting ready for school, working out, church, book club, craft club, house work..things have been pretty crazy.
I think I am finally starting to get a handle on it all :)

Well I hope everyone is doing fabulous! I am gonna go through and catcgh up on the blogs! Love you All!!

Calling All Military Wives, Gf, Fiancée, etc & a story

Okay first off If you are a military wife, girlfriend, fiancée, etc that is interested in helping out another please comment or email me. If you leave a comment PLEASE make sure you have it set up where I can email you back. I will give details to those of you who ask for them and you can decide from there if you would like to help in anyways. Thank you! 


Now on to other subject. 
January 15th marked two years since I left Florida and got on a plane and moved to Washington State. I was 18 years young. Left EVERYTHING I knew, friends, family, my entire home & life, to move 3,000 miles away. I knew that I wanted to start over. I knew I needed it as well. I was not getting along with my parents pretty much at all. I was dealing with a lot of personal stuff that really no one knew about. I was severely loosing myself. One of my very good friends, Chandra aka C, was living here. I had helped her and her boyfriend move from FL to Wa in November, so just 2 months before.  It was a amazing trip. It was my first cross country drive. First time seeing pretty much anything other than Florida and Indiana. Well I had finally ended things with the guy that I really needed to not be with and was so broken from it all.. that C offered to pay for me to move here. To help me out and she missed me. :) Well She also told me of a guy that I just had to get to know. I was VERY skeptical at first. But finally I was like okay why not. We started texting, both agreed only looking for friendship. We talked through text and internet for a month before I let him talk to me on the phone. We quickly fell in love.  Neither of us wanted long distance and both of us were scared due to being severely hurt times before. He was stationed in Ft lewis, which is how my friend knew him. So now I had C and Him wanting me to move. This guy was stationed for a year at my home town. We had many mutual friends but yet we never met. Now here we are after the army took him away from my town talking and falling more in love each passing day. I finally decided that I was gonna move. Jan. 15th, 2009 I got on a place and took a HUGE leap of faith.  I got off the plane very late that night to my friend C and her boyfriend waiting for me.. then off to the side was a tall, handsome man, with a red rose, very nervous there to surprise me as well. Then Jan 16th, at 3:12am we started dating officially.  A few weeks went by & we decided to get married. He asked my dad through webcam, l0l.  My parents approved very well. They had gotten to know him. Well our engagement was official Feb 14th, 2009.  We then tied the knot on April 6th, 2009. Then again on August 22, 2009.  My life has changed so much with these last 2 years. I met the man of my dreams. I got introduced to military life. I got married. Moved 4 times. Got pregnant. Have had good jobs. Met some awesome ppl., made some new friends. I have changed some of my views, beliefs, goals, and so much more!! 
It is amazing to see how much has changed. As well as scary to see how fast things can change, with a blink of a eye and one move or change etc can change your entire life. I do not have any regrets and I praise the Lord for my life, all my blessings. I am thankful for C giving me the happy ending with my husband and my son~! 


My hubby took me out tonight (it is 1:08am so technologically last night). It is even more specially not just b.c it was to celebrate our 2 year anniversary of being together.. but it the last time we had a date as a couple. Since our son will be here soon! I will update on baby soon!! This post is long enough now. Thank you VERY much for reading!~
