From since I can remember, I've always wanted to have kids. I've worked as a nanny to newborns and young children since I was 13 years old, and instead of making me see how much hard work goes into their care and to turn me away from wanting kids so badly, it did the opposite. It fed my desire to have children.
My boyfriend, Kenny is 31 (and yes, I catch a lot of shit for our age difference, too), and he's the one I want to marry and spend my life with.
I'll be a proud tattooed and pierced momma; I have my ears pierced 7 times, with my lobes gauged to 0g, I have my nose pierced, and I have 7 tattoos. (I will definitely getting more after the birth of my baby.)

Happenings:
September 2, 2012: I'm too scared to take a test, because I'm afraid of a negative result...But could it be? Finally?
September 3, 2012: I took a test and got a BFP! I screamed when I saw the result..I'm gonna have a baby!
September 5, 2012: Took a 2nd HPT, with afternoon pee, and got the most clear BFP after waiting only 10 seconds...It got darker and darker as I waited; I think it's for sure that I'm pregnant!
September 22, 2012: 7 weeks 3 days...morning sickness started. Nausea all day long, but no vomiting (only gagging and coughing).
October 4, 2012: 9 weeks and 1 day...went to interview a midwife (loved her!), tried to hear heartbeat with a Doppler but didn't have any luck. Midwife
wasn't worried so neither am I.
October 11, 2012: 10 weeks 1 day...first appointment. Had blood drawn, urine
collected and tried again for a heartbeat. Heard it racing away at 170 bpm.
December 21, 2012: first ultrasound; it's a girl! EDD got changed from 5/8/2013 to 5/15/2013 because she was measuring perfect for 19 weeks.
