My name is Caity. I'm currently pregnant with a baby girl and my son is a toddler already! I'm a Navy wife and a stay at home mommy, so life is pretty dull most of the time. I spend most of my time with my family, or reading, writing, playing Guild Wars. Being away from home is hard for me, all my family lives in Florida, like 16 hours away. I don't have any friends here in Texas, so yea, I definitely have a very boring life.
