I missed somethings yesterday that I would like to add. For one I am 23 years old as of June 27th. The love of my life will be 25 on November 10th. Anyways I got out of the military a week under 3 years out of a 4 year contract. I got a parenthood discharge and was officially out of the Navy. I left Virginia to head home to Washington State to live with my parents since my husband was then deployed. I had a 9 month old toddler and I was about 2.5 months pregnant then as I did a 3000+ mile drive home by myself. I stayed in Washington State from August 2010- Mid December 2010. At that point in time I left home to make my way to North Carolina to get ready for my husband to come home from Afghanistan soon afterwards and just so everyone knows it sucks getting a place across country with a Power of Attorney! lol
While my husband was gone I found out the sex of baby #2 which happened to be a boy and his name came to be Bostin Ryker. He was due January 19th, 2011.
My dad is a wonderful man and he drove me across country for the second time from WA to NC while I was 36 weeks pregnant and my daughter was about 14 months old then. He also is the one who drove me across country from WA to VA to get me to have my own car there. :) He is a great man and a great dad I love him more then anything and I wish him the best with everything and I am always there for him <3
My husband came home from his 7 month deployment on January 4th, 2011- 15 days before our due date of our son Bostin. I had him January 16th, 2011 he was 3 days early. My awesome friend Jannie was able to be there for us to watch our daughter Leanna so my husband could be in the room with me during labor. I started having contractions the morning of the day I had him at about 8-9am and at 6:43pm and he was 7lbs 3ozs and 19 inches long. He looked just like his sister in which they looked exactly like their daddy there was no doubt about it that they were his, I was jealous because they didn't look like me lol
My husband's paternity leave started that Sunday in which his post deployment leave started that upcoming friday so he got a few extra days off of work and saved some leave thanks to having our son early.
And this is when the fun begins.... the hard times were just around the corner and there was never a hint at all about it...
Our beautiful babies <3
