VERY Long Time, No Blog ;)

Wow,  it's been forever! I don't even know where to start. A lot has happened in the past few years, I suppose I'll start with Braiden and work from there!

 Braiden is almost 3, can you believe it? I barely can! His current loves in life are Spiderman, Batman, guns, games on mom's phone, cuddling with mom and dad, and wrestling with his daddy.

This little guy is constantly amazing me with how smart, well behaved and loving he is. I really got lucky to have such a great little man in my life! And in a few weeks he is going to be a big brother, we expect his baby brother, Hunter James to be born around Jan. 7th!

  

Chad and I are doing awesome! I love him more and more with each passing day. On August 23, 2012 we have been married for 4 years, and together for 8! It seems like we have always been together, he just fits so perfectly in my life, and he is the best husband I could EVER ask for! 

I'm not even sure how to transition into this, so I'm just going to jump right in.

 My father passed away, after battling various cancers for 8 1/2 years, this year on August 19th. He passed on what would have been my mother and his 25th wedding anniversary had they not divorced. I think this has been one of the hardest things for me to deal with in my life, ever.
He has been very sick for a very long time, and we all logically knew he would pass from cancer eventually, but you never believe that your father is really ever going to die. I still have a hard time grasping it.

The only other thing I can think to share at this time is that I plan on attending Career Step, using my MYCAA scholarship to pay for my class to become a Medical Administrative Assistant! Wish me luck! It's gonna be nice to feel like I'm doing something productive---other than producing babies and cleaning a house! 

Here's to hoping I can keep up on this blog for at least a couple months! ;)
