Its been a while.

So i havent been on here in forever! Atleast not since Josh and i got back to the states. Well alot has happened and really nothing at all. At this moment im 36 weeks pregnant and my due dates Feb. 4th, however i dont think that my son is gonna make it until then. If you havent heard already...were naming him Andrew Joshua Wells. Andrew because its my dads middle name and Joshua, well because thats Joshs name. So we decided to go with that. Well yesterday i had a doctors appointment and the doctor had me admitted to the hospital because i was exhibiting signs of preeclampsia...and so i had to go in for testing and observation. Which wasnt too bad. In the end i tested negative for it and was released from the hospital. It was scary though because had i have it then the doctors would have induced labor and i would have had him in the next few days. I am however starting to dialate and the baby is in the ready position. So we had to call Josh and have him come home earlier then expected since the doctor said that hes almost ready. Were having the baby at John Muir. So if you get word that im in labor...come visit us! Im still in Walnut Creek until June. Then were going to Wright Patterson in Ohio for 2 years. So it will be interesting. Well i hope that everyone has been blessed and had a wonderful holidays.

So it begins

Well Joshua left yesterday. Saying goodbye is always the hardest. I feel like my hearts broken and it really hurts. If i dont go see him in Japan then the next time i will see him is 7 months and 10 days. He can only come back for when the baby is born. Its so hard. I envy the girls who dont go through morning sickness and who have their husband or childs father there throughout the whole pregnancy. Josh and i both feel heartbroken because he wont be here. We were both happy that i had an ultrasound and we got to see our babys heartbeat fluttering. We both cried. He has been so great during this whole stay home. He took care of me and always made sure i was taken care of. Anything i needed he was there giving it to me. It sucks because being the one pregnant and going through all these hormonal changes, i felt a little distant from him, partially because i felt so sick, but emotionally i felt out of wack. He stayed and hovered anyways and im so glad he did. He's called me twice since he left, and hes just as heartbroken and sad as i am. Its never easy being married to the military and knowing that that inevitable call to go overseas is looming over you. Its also times like these where we both feel bitter towards the military. We love eachother more then anything in existence and i would do anything for him just like i know he would do the same. Life was so much brighter and better when he was here holding my hand and holding me together. I keep expecting him to just appear and i look out the window hoping to catch a glimpse at a memory or a picture of his face. I miss him so much. I couldnt sleep last night. I kept waking up knowning that i was in a bed alone for the first time in 8 months. I didnt have anyone to poke and say "babe your snoring and i cant sleep!!". Anyways...i guess thats enough sadness for now. I love you Joshua with all my heart.

WERE PREGNANT!!!

Well its official, Josh and i are expecting our mini us!! WOOHOO!! Were really really excited. I think that were however further along then everyone thinks!! So we find out next week all the info. Were both REALLY REALLY happy and excited! Josh cried when we found out. My stomach has a month ago already started getting fatter and its hardening by the day. In about two days i think my stomach will be completely harden. Its really crazy. It seems as if everyones either just getting pregnant or just had a baby or is having one. Its so funny. My friend Amanda and Jose had their first baby son Sunday morning...hes so beautiful. My family is really happy for us too...well i think except my dad...i cant really tell since i told Wendy and she supposedly told my dad and i called him and left a voicemail but he hasnt returned my call...so who knows. Im sure hes dissapointed...but i hope not. Anyways...i will have more info as soon as we talk to the doctors...were up by Mt. Shasta visiting Joshs dads side of the family. More to come!!

Its about time..

Well i havent had much of an opportunity to blog much, i have been sick ever since before we left to return to the states...and still am sick, and just running around doing all this stuff before Josh has to run off to Japan. On our flight home, i was sick the whole ENTIRE time. So the flight was horrible. Crappy thing is, is i NEVER get sick on planes. But anyways, being home has definately been bittersweet. We miss being able to just spend time with eachother and not have to share eachother with family or friends, and we have ran into some complications due to loosing important stuff ever since we got back. So its been nice to have a break but its also been stressful. Some important news, we find out if we are pregnant tomorrow. I havent gotten my period this month, but it could be due to the fact that theres been alot of stress, and the reacclimation of the time zones. But we'll know for sure tomorrow, so be on the look out for that exciting news! Well im gonna go lay down with Josh to watch a movie...i hope everyones well and i hope to hear from you soon!

1 Month



So today is exactly a month that Josh and i have been married. Everything and nothing has changed. We love each other more and more everyday. We learn new things about each other and everyday we grow together. Hes so amazing. Its crazy because i never thought i could love someone the way i love him or anyone else for that matter. I finally feel better after getting sick the other night. although its not a %100 percent, its better then feeling sick all day. So were 10 days away from coming home. Were both really excited. I gotta say, at first when i was thinking about the whole idea of coming to Korea, i cant say i was excited, thrilled, or happy. But that wasnt the point...as long as i got to be with Josh thats all that mattered. As it turns out, i will actually miss Korea. I made alot of friends here and i learned alot about the Korean culture and lifestyle. I really was suprised at how much i liked it. Its not the most desirable place, but its awesome in its own way. I cant wait to see my family. I cant wait to tell my Dad i toughed being sick out. He knows just how much i hate being sick.

Sick..and hating it.

Wow. So last night Josh and i went to dinner...then we went to see Spider Man 3 and it was going great until mid way through the movie i started feeling awfully hot and nauseous. We had to leave early because i just couldnt feel better. So after we got back on base...i started vomiting, NON STOP. Now if you know me, you know that that is my BIGGEST phobia. Everything else i can manage, but not that. The last time i got sick was with the 24 hour flu bug and i was camping with my dad. BAD EXPERIENCE. And needless to say, the last time i went camping. I hate HATE HATE being sick. So i have been up the whole night and i finally got my stomach to calm down, but thats after i freaked out. Josh took great care of me...hes so wonderful. Anyways...i hope i continue to get better because if this is the works of pregnancy...i dont know if i can do it.

Im a frequent Blogger..fair warning!!

So i finally got new glasses. I was so bummed out when i lost mine...longest pair i have had in such a long time. Anyways...i totally love that new Maroon 5 song "Makes me wonder". The lead singer has a great unique voice. Its putting me in a good mood. Tomorrow were going to Osan with Josh's whole flight since the first trip was canceled due to the incident last week. It should be fun. I cant wait to get back home. I havent seen my dad in like 5 months! Last time i seen him was right after my birthday, him and my sister and i went out to dinner. I miss him. Lately i cant stop worrying about Tayler. I know shes a smart girl, but that boyfriend of hers is no good. Shes so beautiful and great i just wish she wasnt stuck on that stupid guy. I know one day she'll get her head on straight. Atleast shes going to school and doing well. As for me, well i know im going to go back to school but rather on my own terms. I know my mom and dad were just worried and want me to be happy, but the constant pressure was overwhelming. But i know that everything will be fine. I would rather re-enroll in school and complete it and not tell them till i was done. I think they'd be shocked and proud. We'll see. I miss my family alot. Seeing pictures of everyone growing up without me makes me sad. I have only been gone for 5 months, but then im leaving again. I feel like my sisters need me. Woo...Josh and i are going to see John Legend when we come home. Hes so awesome! Thats exciting, we were anxious to go to a concert, but so far all the artists we wanted to see weren't on tour or they were but not in California. And how about them Warriors!! They are doing good in the playoffs right now. Josh and i were watching the games on tv. Pretty exciting. I know for sure we'll be going to some A's games. Josh keeps telling me how excited he is to go to a game. He hasn't been to one in i believe 3 years. I think were even going to cram in a trip to Disneyland. At least thats the plan. Kind of a pre-honeymoon trip. Im also excited that Harry Potter's 7th and final book is coming out!! I didnt think it would be so soon, but i was on the site yesterday and its coming out July 13th. Then the movie "Order of the Phoenix" is coming out on the 23rd. I think Tayler and me will take the kids to see that. Were all Harry Potter fans. Haha i remember when London used to have a Harry Potter bedspread and pillows. Haha. I have to buy all the dvd's and books when they come out in the collection series. Anyways...i need to go get ready for dinner tonight. Till the next time..
