Well, I haven't done this in awhile and I think it's time that I updated everyone on my life.
I have my own blog where I wrote a bunch of emo depressing stuff back when I was starting college. Haha. I'm much happier now, I was happy then, just a hipster.
Recently, quite a bit of stuff has gone on in my life, it's actually been a little insane and I feel like I should have a place where I can update friends and families on, not only my life, but the life of my family. So here goes.
About a year ago I started dating this guy named Isaac, a lot of you know him already, I already did, from high school.
There he is, with an eye patch. Well, we weirdly started dating and I kind of fell in love with that goober of a man. We got a dog together and we, nerdily, named him after our favorite video game character Commander Shepard.
He's pretty much the coolest dog in the entire world. He's super smart and has this really creepy stare that makes us laugh all the time. He's actually staring at me right now because i'm eating pizza and that is his favorite.
Well, pretty soon after that we got all sorts of engaged and we were pretty darn happy about that.
It was actually pretty darn awesome and I was incredibly happy.
As a lot of you know, I am and English Education major and in order to graduate we have to do a student teaching experience. Because of this we had to very quickly get everything ready and get married. So we were only engaged for about 4 months before getting married.
I also just want to put in a disclaimer and say that I've known and been friends with Isaac since Middle School. So we weren't that crazy.
On December 28, 2013 We got married.
It was the best day of my entire life and I have never been more excited to spend the rest of my life with someone so great and so wonderful. I laugh every day, which was the most important thing I could ever ask for. He's so loving, so caring, and so kind.
This is me and my Dad.
We were actually pretty surprised that we got married. We couldn't stop laughing.
PS. My mom is much cooler than yours. She made my bouquet out of paper.
This is the first family picture we've taken with everyone. It's only been like, my entire life since we've had a family picture.
It was the greatest day ever. We had so much fun. Then we went to Vegas on our honeymoon and we spent New Years on Freemont Street and it was the coolest thing in the world. I don't have any pictures because they were all on my old phone.. So I suck basically. We spent half of the week with Isaac's dad and his family and it was really awesome. It was also really warm.
Well, we lived our lives for a month and a half and it was really great. Being married has been such a great and exciting adventure. We fight, like every couple, but it's been amazing to see how much closer we are after every fight and I really am quite proud of the way that we communicate with each other, I pride myself on the fact that we can tell each other anything.
Well, we got the best and most shocking news in March.. WE'RE PREGNANT! You can try and prevent things as much as you want, but sometimes things are supposed to happen. We found out on March 19, 2014 that we were expecting. I thought Isaac's heart might explode, but he's come around since then and he's more excited than I have ever seen him. He's really looking forward to being a dad.
This is how Shepard announced that he was going to be a big brother. He's pretty excited. He gives little baby a bunch of kisses all the time.
Here is our little one when he was just 10 weeks old.
About 12 Weeks
16 Weeks. I'm much bigger now, I should probably take a picture.
On June 11, 2014 we found out that we are having a boy. His name is Desmond Oscar Magaña. He's a moving ball of fun and I'm really excited to meet him in person.
The pregnancy has gone very well. The doctors found out that I have a bit of a thyroid problem so they have me on some medicine for that, but so far it's been just fine. Baby is healthy and they're always really impressed how easy they can find his heartbeat when they listen. Coming up on the 16th we get a full anatomy ultrasound so we're going to get a really in depth look at him. We're pretty darn excited for that one.
Desmond has been consistently on my bladder, so I haven't gotten the relief from constant peeing that most pregnant women get. He's basically rude. He's also punched me in the lungs a few times. He's basically the worst, but I love him anyways. My back has been getting more and more uncomfortable, and my feet and hands finally swelled so I can no longer wear my wedding ring or normal people shoes.
Isaac has been the best husband and father that I could've ever asked for. He puts up with all my hormonal outbursts and my random crying. I cried for about 10 minutes the other day because I didn't know how to fix the toilet. Isaac very kindly told me that he'll teach me the next time that it breaks. He made me steak for weeks, because it was all that I wanted. My cravings have slowed down and sometimes i'll be like, Ooh I really want Frosted Flakes, so it's been a little nice not to eat steak every day.
I've also been having this really weird thing where I wake up at the crack of dawn and cannot go back to sleep. It's been the worst.
I will keep you updated on the pregnancy as I go along, I just want to keep as many people informed as I can. I"m pretty excited about my life and I have never been happier. I honestly would be completely lost if I did not have Isaac, he means the world to me and I would never trade him for anything (even though he would tell me to trade him for all the money in the world and then come find him and we'll live rich together.) He's honestly the one person who completes me and I feel whole with him. I love him very much, as well as little Desmond and big boy Commander Shepard. My little family is full of boys, but that's what I'm used to, so I'm completely in my element.
You obviously don't have to read until the very end, but if you have thank you. I hope you enjoyed my update and I will be keeping many more with so many more exciting things to come about.
