The new cool thing to do - Lurker Intro

GearUp · May 2014

Hello there!

Okay, so I am super late to the game...but I have been a lurker since the pee stick dried, that total counts right? I want to join in on all the fun, so here I am!

My little one arrived about three weeks early, so he is technically a September baby, but I want to play here if that is ok

My intro:

I am married to an awesome guy (who is currently deployed ), we have two children, a little girl who is five and a half and a little boy who is now eight months old. We live in Tennessee, and I am currently a sahm, but will perhaps return to work after this little guy turns one...or maybe two.....I am winging it at this point.

I always have super awesome UO's and FFFC's that I mentally add to the conversation, so it will be fun to actually participate!

Also - huge potential deal breaker....I can't gif...I mean, I never took the time to learn (I am almost exclusively mobile, and they never show up right anyways)

Will you still have me?

Here is my sweet Jack at Easter

I always screw this up the first few time so bare with me- gif code:

Welcome. I can't gif or post from a computer. 100% mobile so you'll be fine.

Hello!

jack is such a cutie!! I still can't mobile gif either

GearUp · May 2014

Ugh, apparently I can't tag either, but @Lee81 - thanks, I will save that for the emergency giffing moment!

@cassey910 - I also live in middle TN, about 40 mins. south of Nashville.

Also, I like Friends, but kinda hate Rachel.

I love all the welcomes and baby compliments

Quick question - How do I change my signature. I have tried a bajillion times...it's not working!

Welcome! It took me forever to gif on mobile but thanks to my BFF @ElleStaxx‌, I know how to now! Glad you could join us!

shelley1002 · May 2014

Welcome. There are a few military families on this board. How much longer for the deployment? What Branch is he in?

GearUp · May 2014

@Shelley1002 - We are nearing the 50% mark, he should be home later this fall! We were an active duty Army family before he switched to NG. Now that we have been "home" for a while, we both have the itch to travel/move again...lol!

Welcome! Jack is so adorable! Thank you for your husband's service and your family's sacrifice. I hope to see you around more.

My H is also ARNG. Hope the deployment is going smoothly. Glad its half over. I can't imagine having a baby with him away.

Welcome and very cute baby you have! Also, National Guard wife here too (Army aviation)- holla! Hopefully we can help you pass time during the rest of deployment in addition to your hands being full with your kiddos!
