Here Goes Nothing...

Well I am definitely not a blogger, or a writer but I have recently read a few blogs of people I don't even know and feel like I could get a lot out of writing on a daily basis. So here I go...

Most of you know that Josh and I recently got married, May 1, 2010. I'd have to say after all the stress and work that went into it, it turned out to be the most beautiful day! It was freezing, but everything I had ever dreamed of, more actually! I just can't believe how fast it all went by. An entire year of planning all for 5 hours that goes by like 5 minutes! I loved getting into my dress and knowing that I was about to walk down the aisle with my daddy to meet my HUSBAND (I love saying that). I was beyond nervous though to walk down the aisle and know there were 175 people staring at ME!

Josh and I have done most things in our lives together in an nontraditional manner. We met, moved in together, got pregnant and 5 years later got married. And regardless of what people may think I believe that we are a much stronger couple because of the way we did things. I am so glad we waited to get married, when we knew we were ready. We overcame obstacles that a lot of couples married or not have a difficult time getting through. We had opportunities to get out and walk away but we chose to grow together and make our relationship work and be as strong as possible. Josh is without a doubt my best friend, my life partner, the man I was meant to be with FOREVER! Our wedding day, next to the day that I had Chandler was the best day of my life.

Josh and I are living in Yucaipa, Josh grew up here, and I guess I technically did the majority of my "growing up" here as well (the last 13 years). We are living in the same SMALL mobile home that we have been for the last 5 years and grew out of it about ummmm 4 years ago (when we had Chandler). We have been looking for a house to buy on and off for the last year, with no luck. We have a few financial things to smooth out so we are hoping maybe in the next 6 months we can buy what will possibly be our "dream home". Josh is working for a merchandising company and works a lot of nights, hence the reason I am up at 2am writing a blog! I hate sleeping alone! He is going to school hoping to get into the Fire department. He is working really hard at it. So maybe by next year he will be my sexy husband in a uniform... ooolala. LOL. Sorry. I am currently going to school, which I feel is a never ending process to become an elementary school teacher. I am now in my 2nd year and feel like I am not even close to actually teaching! I keep going back and forth, wondering if maybe I should change my major, go to a trade school, something where I can have a career in less time. But then I remind myself I don't want to be stuck doing something I don't love. I wish at times that I was more creative, so I could just be one of those people who one day think of a great idea and then the next they have started their own successful business. Maybe one day that wish will come true.

Chandler is about to turn 4 years old (June 5th). I cannot believe how fast the time went by, I know everyone says that but it's so true, you don't even realize it and then one day your wondering where the time went. He is so energetic and crazy, he has an awesome personality and sense of humor, and makes me laugh 100x throughout the day. I am astounded by how smart he is. He is very opinionated and lets you know how things should be. He loves Batman, and sometimes requires that we call him Batman. I am so grateful to have such an amazing son who tells me he loves me a million times a day and gives me hugs and kisses just as much. He is my miracle baby, and I am so blessed!

Well I think that is it for my first blog. I hope that it wasn't too boring and I hope it was a good start, and I really hope that after all the time I spent creating the blog I can keep up with it.

Goodnight! <3
