Being that we live in the era of stalkers, skeezers, and weirdos, I've decided that rather than use our real names, I'm going to give each of us a pseudonym. You can just refer to me as Queen B.
I am currently a stay at home mom of two stinking rotten little boys. Okay, they are also really cute and even sweet sometimes. They are what motivates me in life. I am also a student.....someone should have told me how hard it would be to get your college degree while being a mom/wife/housekeeper/chef/referee/magicalwoundhealer. I did not want to go to college after high school - I jumped right into corporate america, got an apartment, and did things my way. It was great while it lasted, but after having my first child I realized how important a college degree is. Not only for financial reasons - the main point, of course - but also because I wanted to take a completely different career path than the one I was on. After having my first child, I went back to work for 11 months and ended up leaving my job (I had been there for 8 years!) to spend every waking minute with my baby, and to go to school. So that's that. It's hard, I stay up late, I get a lot of headaches, but we're all making it happen.
So our little family of four.....started with just two of us....."The Professor" (a.k.a. Daddy) and myself met at age 16. I am just realizing I've been hanging out with this guy for a long time, huh? Good thing I like him;) We moved into an apartment together after high school (fun times!!!!!), I worked, he went to college (and worked part time), and we were care free, fun, crazy kids! Whoa, those were the days, right? We WERE kids though, so we went through random tough times, learned life lessons, picked up and moved on, etc.....In 2005 we got married and I had the best wedding and honeymoon EVER!!!!! Beautiful memories and so much family that helped to make it happen. It was definitely one of the best days of my life.
On June 6, 2007, I gave birth to Batman. Yep. I had to deliver the day I turned 37 weeks but he was absolutely perfect. Healthy and so sweet. I loved him so much when he was in my belly, but wow, once he was in my arms I was forever changed. When I was pregnant the second time I was SOOOO excited - but would sometimes wonder how in the world could I ever love anyone as much as I love Batman???? But low and behold, when Spiderman was born on June 25, 2009, my heart melted like a popsicle on the 4th of July. This baby boy filled my heart to the brim....I just could not stop snuggling him. When Batman came to the hospital to meet his brother I realized my first "baby" was no longer a baby.....he was talking in sentences and peeing on the potty.....and pushing all the buttons on my hospital bed making it go crazy, opening the fridge in our room and taking everything out. He really could of cared less at the moment that he had a new brother, I mean, all the buttons were way cooler. It wasn't until Spiderman and I came home two days later that it really set in with Batman......this little guy was here for the long haul. They look a lot alike but their personalities differ. They fight over toys, over looking out the window, over sitting next to me.....but I swear, they really do love each other.
And they are my world!
