So here I am, dusting off my old Blogger. I started this in 2003 and now, 11 years later, I'm starting it up again! But new and improved! So much has changed and I have so much to share!
I am now a married woman. Got hitched back in oh eight to a soldja! We've been living in Fort Lewis, WA since. After three deployments we finally decided to take the next step and have a baby. For a long time I was on the fence about having a child of my own...but that's a story for another post.
December 2012 I got that BFP and 40 weeks plus two days later we said hello to Olivia Violet Martinez.
The light of our life. The best thing I have ever done. She was beautiful! 8 pounds 12 ounces and 20 3/4 inches of sheer perfection! I will probably devote an entire post to my birth story another day...for now I'm trying to keep everything short and simple!
Fast forward to present day: Olivia is 7 months old (or 31 weeks if you'd like to go that route) She is amazing! Growing and exploring. Making every day an adventure. She's made me a better person! A happier, more confident person! Of course, with all that happiness comes the worry, self doubt, and neuroticism but I'm told that's normal (I BEG TA DIFFA!)
Well, that's the gist of things. I hope you, my readers, stick around to read more. I will try and post a few times a week or as much as my nutty child will allow. I enjoy sharing my life experiences so prepare yourself for pictures galore of Olivia and my silly ramblings.
Au revoir!
