New Beginnings

Let's just start by saying WHEW it's been a busy few months and I'm happy it's finally winding down and getting back to normal. A lot has happened since I last posted on here so let’s start from the New Year.

January: I was ever so lucky to have another septoplasty and turbinate reduction. I wasn't sleeping well so I thought I would go in and see if my deviated septum came back 10 years later and lucky me it did. So my mom came into town to take care of me and finally got to meet Tamer. A week after my surgery I started my second semester back at school, I decided to take a light load and I'm totally regretting it with how easy this semester is. I'm taking refresher classes for math and English then a nice Zumba workout class. I was thinking the refresher courses would have more homework since they gave me 6 credits for math and 4 for writing but I guess not.
 
February: I had a wonderful valentine’s day with Tamer, he sent me beautiful roses and took me to Market Street for dinner (yummy crab)! February 12th was 3 years since I found out that I was expecting little T bug also. Tamer and I also made a big decision to move in together in February so that was super exciting :) We also found out we will be adding one more beautiful baby to the family on October 5th, 2013. I cannot wait to meet my new niece or nephew :) Congrats Matthew, Christina, Lyla and Abby.
 
March: Well so far March is off to a good start :) I got to speak at the Annual Doula Conference in Salt Lake on March 1st about my experience with Tenley. This was HUGE for me and I was so nervous that I totally sped through it and wish I would have taken my time but that's okay it will make me better for next time I get to speak in front of a big group about her. My parents came into town for it and my dad finally got to meet Tamer just in time for us moving in together :) The next day I started moving my stuff in and I'm happy to say we finally finished yesterday (thank god) because I'm DRAINED. I almost got everything organized with a couple rooms left but I'm making progress to say the least.

 
Moving in with Tamer is a HUGE step for me. I've been so afraid of commitment since me and her dad had a horrible break up. I was scared to move in with a guy ever again and it’s not just me its Tenley too so it's big for me to move her stuff. Things are different with Tamer though and I guess you can say I feel "safe" with him. I don't see him hurting me the way others have in the past and he definitely doesn't have a mean bone in his body (well maybe when I misplace his stuff I moved & when he works a 13 hour day ha-ha)! But I like him, I really really like him (those of you who watch bachelor can laugh at this sentence) Yes unlike Juan Pablo I can admit that I love him ;) and he makes me incredibly happy. I can’t wait to see what the future hold for us.


Love,
Tenley's Mama
