These are the Voyages of the Starship Enterprise.....
I have been itching to start a blog, for my family and I, but I'd never really had the time to do it. Today seemed like as good a day as any. I'm sitting here watching my son play in his "exersaucer", and reveling about how amazing he is. My life has been and is increasingly become AWESOME!
So much has happened over the last year, it's hard to wrap my mind around it. Anything from New Jobs to New babies! Geremy and I have recently started our life together. And this post is going to attempt to catch the readers (if any) up to the present. Geremy and I met just about two years ago. We met through a mutual friend Logan Meyers. I was living in the 13th house, as Geremy was a "frequenter" of said facilities. The 13th house was an era that shall not be long forgotten, But that is another story, for another time, or blog rather.
After many attempts to try to woo said Geremy, and many unsuccessful tries, we finally hit it off and started dating in August of 2009. Geremy was my roommate at the time, and it was fun, playing house for a while, however uncouth our lifestyle was. (if you had ever visited the 13th house you would understand.) After our lease was up we decided to move to a quaint apartment or fourplex, which Geremy's dad owns. I loved this apartment. Two bedrooms and a pretty large living room, and a semi quiet neighborhood, except for the one time that the Payless Shoe Store was robbed, which was one street away from our place. All in all i was enjoying our adventures at the Gladstone house, and subsequently had fallen in love with Geremy Earl Kimery.
In January of 2010, I started to act really really weird, being overly emotional and very, for lack of a better word, "bitchy". I couldnt handle my emotions. For about a month I shrugged it off saying it was no more than Seasonal Depression, oh how wrong I was.
Jokingly one night I told Geremy my issues were just do to a pregnancy and I should just take a pregnancy test and confirm the fact that i was pregnant. I REALLY WAS KIDDING! But....I was pregnant. In fact, I was already Two months pregnant. I kept thinking over and over..."how in the hell could this happen"....When my mother pointed out the obvious...."Well duh"!
After many nights of heartache, and stomachaches, I had come to the conclusion that this is a great thing. And that this is happening for a reason. In early april we had the wonderful opportunity of finding out that we were having a little boy. I had never seen Geremy this way. So emotional about such a good thing. He couldnt believe that it was a little boy, We had decided right then and there that we were going to be parents and we were going to be the best parents that we could be.
In early April of 2010 we mutually decided over a game of "left for dead" that we were going to be married. We were engaged for a month and then married on June 5th 2010. The day was amazingly beautiful and I couldnt have asked for a more enchanting day.
We didnt get to go on a honeymoon really, being 7 months pregnant made travelling difficult. We were able to escape for a night down to SLC though, were we enjoyed a day at the Hogle Zoo, Which was SOOOO fun. I had such a good time, and will always remember that day.
So after many long nights of staying up puking my guts out, many bags of oreo's, countless soft pretzles, And much deliberation of names, Our beautiful son was born on August 23rd 2010. Grisham Earl Kimery.
I took a two month maternity leave and loved being with my song. But it was time to return to work. We were living with My mom at the time, and we decided now that we were starting our own family we needed to move out to our own place. We found a quaint two bedroom apartment a street away from our previous apartment.
At first glance the apartment was disgusting. We gutted it out, fresh coats of paint and many attempts at steam cleaning the carpets, it finally looks like home. I love living there, and I especially love going home to my family.
So this brings us up to the present. Today is February 13th 2010. I am hanging out with my Mom and Grandpa, I've had such an enjoyable day, and I am headed home to be with my husband. This week is an exciting week. My mom is getting married on Thursday and after a life full of being within 10 minutes of my mother, she is moving 8 hours away. I am having a particularly hard time with this, because at the same time, my brother is going on a mission, and Amanda and Mike, (my sister and bro-in law) are contemplating moving as well. Life can be hard, but let me tell you, it is worth the heartache and the pain, when you get to love who you have become and who you are associated with. My family is my life, and I cant imagine it without them.
Tillll next time..........
