Little Update

Well it is true, I am not very good at the whole updating my blog thing! There are a few exciting things going on in my life so I thought that this would b a great way to share and get everyone updated!

My best friend is having a baby!!! I know that I mentioned this before, but I am truly happy for Tony and Michelle and can't wait to meet my nephew Connor! The little tyke isn't born yet and I am already in love with him so much! I think that it is safe to say that he is going to be one well taken care of little boy when he joins the rest of us out here in the world. Tony and Michelle are going to make great parents, and they have been truly blessed with this little bundle of joy. Michelle is due at the end of January and I will have my phone attached to my hip waiting for the phone call that she is headed to the hospital. Tony will be deployed at the time she is expected to deliver; so if everyone could keep Tony in your prayers for him to return home safe, and Michelle as well for strength to get through not only the deployment but the delivery of their child.

MORE BABY NEWS!!!! Sorry everyone, Thomas and I aren't there yet but hopefully soon! My baby sister, Kelci is having a baby!! They will find out the sex of the baby November 9th, so needless to say we are over joyed at the news and can't wait to find out if we are going to have another niece or nephew!! Kelci is due March 31st, so around that time I will once again have my phone attached to my hip!!

Other than baby news, Thomas and I will be back under one roof again by the end of this month! I can't believe that it has been a little over a year that he has been gone. I guess working and going to school full-time, having two dogs, training for a few runs will help pass time! It has been a hard year being apart from each other, but distance makes the heart grow fonder! People always ask how I can do it, but I either said no Thomas you can't move to Spokane to work and pay bills you need to stay home here in Enumclaw and try and find a different job while the bills start to pile up or I pull my big girl panties on and let him go. We needed this job not only so we could pay bills, but so he wouldn't go crazy and start annoying the crap out of me (just being honest!) being home and without a job. The time apart has done nothing but great things for our relationship and I tried to make lemonade out of lemons while he has been gone! I think that I did ok, and we are in the final stretch, the next time he comes home will be him moving home!! Thank you everyone for the love and the support that you all have given us over the last year, it has helped both of us get through it!

Well I think that sums everything up, our little family is healthy and our extended family is growing! We are truly blessed with everything that is going on in our lives right now, and everyone that is in our lives! We love you all!! XoXo
