Update on the Gillams...

Hey everyone! I feel like I'm always saying this but it's been awhile since I've written on here but it's true...I'm a slacker when it comes to blogging. Haha!

So, since the last time I wrote on here I've gotten a job at the Child Development Center on base. I'm loving it! I've always loved working with kids so this is just the right job for me. God really blessed us by giving me this job. We had been praying for a few months for me to get a job and then I got a call for this one! It makes great money and I'm good at it! :) Now we just need to move on base. It's hard only having one car and trying to work out ways to get us both to work. It will be much easier when we live on base which will hopefully be in November when our lease is up, that is if they have any houses available.

Well, we're still trying to get pregnant. It's been a rough 9 months or so but we know that God will give us a baby in his time. I saw my regular doctor the other day for a routine yearly 'check up' and she's referring me to the gyn..so they are supposed to be calling me in the next 2 weeks or so to set up an appt. just to make sure we are both healthy and have no problems getting pregnant. We have both been eating healthier and exercising often. I think a lot of it has to do with stress, I want to get pregnant so bad that I think it's getting to me. People tell me to just stop trying and it will happen but that's easier said then done. I'm just ready to see the gyn and get things moving!
One of my close friends just found out she's pregnant and she didn't find out until she was already 10 weeks! Holy moly! She hasn't had ANY symptoms other then being a little tired during the day. I hope I'm like that!! It was a little hard for me when I found out because they weren't trying for a baby and they weren't even planning on kids for a few more years. They both just turned 21 and they've only been married for a year. But I'm so happy for them! They will be great parents. I also went to two other friends baby showers in the last 2 weeks. They are both due I believe around Oct. 14th. I can't wait! One is having a girl and one is having a boy..so exciting! Babies everywhere!! LOL

In other news...My 22 birthday is in about 2 weeks! I'm excited because I have a 4 day weekend right before my birthday because of Labor day but then of course my b-day is on Tuesday so I have to work that day...boo! That's okay though, I'll have those 4 days to celebrate...just wish Jeremy had them off too. The only day he has off of those days is Saturday. :/ But I heard some of my friends might be planning something for me..so that's exciting!

A lot of exciting things happening in the next few months. My birthday, our 3 year wedding anniversary and 6 year "together" anniversary both in October and then we'll be moving on base in November and his 24th b-day is in Nov as well.

Hopefully I'll write again soon and not wait like 3 months. Haha!
