It's a CRAZY life...But it's MY life! :)
My name is Shannon. I am 22 years old. I am happily married to my husband Jeremy. We started dating in February 2006 and got married on May 6th 2007! I am a mother to two beautiful, healthy children. On October 5th 2007, I gave birth to the most handsome boy in the whole world, Cayden Chase. On November 11th 2009 I gave birth to the most beautiful little girl! I am currently pregnant with my third child...We dont know what we are having yet but intelligender told us BOY! He or She is due July 4th! I am new to this whole blogging thing but I wanted to start one so I could document my family as we grow and expand...along with my waist line :)

Moving in less than 2 weeks!!!
So, we found this AWESOME house in Goode, Va. It has 6 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, 2 living rooms, 2 dining rooms, and 2 kitchens!!! It is on 2+ acres of land. And the neighbors have cows and horses lol. The house is so amazing that I just could not believe that it was in our price range! We looked at about 7 houses before seeing this one and I was almost in tears with how old and gross those houses were. I just could not see raising my family in any of those houses for the next 3 years! When we walked into this house I was a little worried because the walls were painted hunter green and a rusty orange. They looked hideous!!!! But the realtor told us that in the following week the whole house was to be professionally painted with cream walls and white trimming! I havent yet seen it since it has been painted but I am so excited to see it! Also the carpet is being replaced too! And the whole upstairs is hard wood floors except the bedrooms! Man, I am going to need a couple maids to help me clean up lol. Anywho, the military pays to have us moved and the moving company came out today to survey our stuff to see how long it would take to pack everything, deliver it, and unload everything. Good news, they are coming on the 8th to pack everything up, loading it all onto the truck on the 9th, and delivering it and unloading it at our new house on the 10th! Man oh man, I am just so stoked to be moving into a house! We have so outgrown this crappy little 3 bedroom apartment! Only thing is, I know when we move into this HUGE house it is going to look so empty lol! Now the only thing I am worried about it getting set up for an ultrasound when we move. It is going to be a hassle cause I have Tricare Prime right now and when we move I have to switch to Tricare Prime Remote cause there are no military facilities close by us. Anyway, I cant find a new PCM (primary care manager...a doctor basically) til we haev the new Tricare...and my new PCM has to refer me to an OB-GYN (which I already have an apt for on the 21st, and I will already be 21 weeks then!)...but I am sure the PCM will not refer me til they see me...so I will have to get an apt with them first and hopefully they can get me in within a week cause I know the referrell will take a week or so for the OB. And then after the OB sees me as a new patient they will send me for an U/S...So who the heck knows when I will know whether this baby is a boy or a girl...even though I just 'KNOW' its a boy lol! But all that aside, I am very excited to be moving. And even more excited that my mom is going to help move us in and stay for 4 days (if she can get off work)!!!! I will post pictures as soon as we are all moved in :)

Time to get out of this apartment!
My husband and I moved from Maryland (where I was born and raised) to Stafford, Va., back in January 2008! We moved into this 3 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment on the second floor! Back then, it was just me, Jeremy, 3 month old little Cayden (aweee tear!) and our old dog, Manny. Now we are still in the same apartment but have expanded...ALOT! Another (big) dog, another kid (Kaylee-Bug) and ANOTHER baby on the way! We knew it was time to get out of here! On top of that, we have been dealing with so much crap from this place. A $25 fee for having a trash bag outside of my front door for an hour...waiting for Jer to come home for lunch to take it to the (always over-filled, DISGUSTING, trash compactor)...the man living above us playing FOOTBALL with his 8yr old son all hours of the day, sounding like a herd of elephants up there. Maintenance people just walking into my house when I am in just a towell!...an air conditioning and heating unit that doesnt heat or cool the rooms properly. A dryer that has to be run TWICE each load to even dry my clothes. And the list goes on and on....AND ON! Soooo lets just say, we are READY to get out of here!!! Well my husband just found out on Tuesday that we are going to be moving to Lynchburg, Va., NEXT MONTH! I am so excited! All the houses we have been looking to rent online have atleast 1acre of land! It will be so nice to finally have a yard for my kiddos to play in! Plus I am so excited that I wont have to take Cayden into my bathroom and let him play in the shower for a whole 1.5hrs while Kaylee naps! If he is out in the living room (which is right by her bedroom) when she naps, she wakes up to the slightest sound he makes...also why the man upstairs pisses me off so badly! So this month is going to be a crazy, hectic month! But I am just so happy to be out of here! Just sad that we will be moving from 1.5hrs away from my family to 4hrs away :(. Anywho, we are going to look at the houses in person next weekend. When we pick one, I will post pictures of it :D YAY!

THERES A BABY IN THERE :)
Baby Barbaresi number three is due to make an entrance July 4th 2011! HUGE surprise!
My growing belly at 14wks1d
Baby bean at 12wks. Cant believe how much he or she already looks like a baby! This is why I am pro-LIFE all the way!
...And Intelligender says 'BOY'!!!! It was right for my daughter Kaylee and for 18 out of 21 of my friends! :) We shall see soon enough!
MY BEAUTIFUL BABIES!
This has to be the best picture I have ever gotten of both of my kids together. This morning Cayden woke up and was upset that our Christmas tree had been taken down. We told him that Santa took it and that he had to sit with his sister right where the tree had been so we could take a nice picture of the both of them for Santa, so Santa could see how much they miss their tree. It worked!!! He actaully didnt try to sit on her, push her, or squeeze her. YAY for Santa! :)
