First time blogger

I have always been against blogging. But I guess it won't kill me to try it :) Since my family and my work seems to consume my life I guess I can find plenty to talk about there! I am 24 years old and I am already a full time mother, a full time student, a full time Soldier and a full time wife. Let me tell you...life is crazy at times! I have a 2 1/2 year old boy, with another boy on the way. Apparently my husband wants to create his own baseball team! I am due June 9th and I am out to show the world that working full time and being a mother should not interfere with you going to school and becoming the best you can be for your kids.

What makes everything even more crazy is that my unit is set to deploy in September of this year. I was deemed non-deployable for my abnormal paps (TMI?) isn't that weird? So anyway, my husband decided since I wasn't going anywhere we might as well have another baby since he doesn't want them too far apart in age. I will be staying behind and taking care of the armory here and keeping up on my regular duties but in a way it breaks my heart. These are my troops, my family that I have trained with for years and I won't be there to help them, on the other hand...I get to stay behind with my family and I won't miss out. Either way it's a tough spot and I know everything happens for a reason so I'll just do my best with whatever situation I am put in.

Anyway, in the midst of all this I decided to start school! I am SO excited to start school and start the path for the rest of my life. I want to be able to show my kids that no matter what is going on that school IS important, especially in this day and age, and you should never be afraid to do what you want! I'm hoping to get a BA in Biology with an emphasis on Human Biology and then go into the dental hygiene field.

In the craziness of work and school I am still a full time mother and wife. Let me tell you, life after having a child will never be the same. You look at everything in a whole new light. I am so much more happy and focused on my life now. It's amazing how one little tiny person really puts your whole life into perspective :)

Hopefully this blog will show everyone the trials and tribulations of being a mom, Soldier, preggo, student, and wife. Let's see where this takes us....
