Where to start? God has blessed me beyond measure. As a 20 something Navy wife, I'm married to my Hospital Corpsman, Doc Handsome, for over two years now and together over three. We have one amazing (I might be a tad biased) little boy, Mini Doc Handsome, born October 2009. Although I am mostly defined by my titles as wife and mother, I am also a daughter, sister, Godmother, friend, granddaughter and above all else, thankful to God for everything he has provided. I work part time, go to school full time, and play the roll as mamma and wife all the time!
We just survived our first 10 month deployment. While Doc Handsome was gone, I went through pregnancy and gave birth to Mini DH. Four months later, Doc Handsome came home. I'd say my life is dedicated to my husband's pride for our country and our little man. Finishing school and teaching elementary school lies ahead in my future. I hardly know all there is to know about being a Navy wife but I certainly enjoy the frustrating yet exciting life that the military has offered thus far.
I started this blog as a way to keep our families who live far in touch with our daily life. It's grown to much more than that and now I've found connections through other gals who share the same way of life as myself. I'm not into the follower count or award winning. It's just not for me. I do enjoy reading others experiences and trying to share mine as much as possible.

Babies the Doc
There's an awesome documentary that came to theaters back in April. It's about to be released to DVD and OnDemand if you have it. It's called "Babies." It follows four babies from their birth to their first birthday. One baby is from San Francisco, another from Mongolia, another from Japan, and the last from Nimibia. I've read a few reviews and all have described the film as a truly "feel good movie" and "huggable." Most of the doc goes without any sort of commentary. Just from watching the trailer I get that feeling. As far as bad reviews go, the main one (and only one) is that it seems a bit sugarcoated. It doesn't really go into disease, parenting difficulties, etc. I think one of the most interesting aspects of the documentary to me will be to see the differences in culture and societies that each of these babies come from.
I believe it comes to OnDemand August 17 and from the looks of their official website, arrives on DVD 14 days later....August 24. Check it out.
I want to see this SO bad. I laughed and cried and got chills just during an extended trailer! Babies tend to do that to me. I'm so excited for it to come out :)
