Coming out of lurking...

Hey everyone! 

 I have finally decided to take the plunge and come out of lurker status. I  am friends with Kristie and she is always talking about you girls. I have actually been lurking since, oh let's see... April :)  

Anyways, I'm Kristen, 28, mommy to Nolan who is almost 8 months old and married to a great guy who's name is also Nolan. We live in Chandler. I enjoy spending time with my son and family, friends, shopping, crafting, sleeping (ha!), reading and making new friends. 

 

Anyways, I look forward to chatting with you girls! Oh and if you don't mind, tell me a little about yourselves! :) 

 

Kristen

  • Hi!  Welcome to non-lurking, its way more fun!  Your son is soooo cute! 

    I'm Deanna, I'm 25 and I'm an AZ native.  My DH is 26 and we live in Cave Creek.  We're TTC baby #1.  For now we have our dog-child, Macy, who is a shih tzu.  Stick out tongue  I'm an RN and my husband works for city of Scottsdale in their recreation department.

    Look forward to getting to know you!

  • Welcome to non-lurking status! Your son is adorable, although I'm sure you already know that...  ;)

    I'm Meghan, 27, expecting my first baby - a boy - in September. I'm married to the best guy I know. He's from eastern PA; I'm from Cleveland, and we met out here when we both moved here six years ago. It's a constant internal struggle for both of us over whether we want to move back east (and where, exactly, we'd move to). But for now, we love AZ and are excited to raise our son here (oh, and we wouldn't be able to sell our condo anyway if our lives depended on it, haha).

    I started my career as a journalist and am now doing public relations for a career and technical school.

    Oh, and I love reading, too... I'm thinking about buying a Nook! My mom just got one, and it looks like all kinds of fun. Well, fun for a book nerd anyway.

  • Hi Kristen!  Nolan is too cute!  I'm glad Kristie was able to persuade you to start posting  :)

    I'm Taylor, married just over a year now.  DH and I are currently renovating our first home in Fountain Hills.  We're youngins, we both work and go to school full time.

    I love to bake, cook, relax with my hubby and our pups, and hang with my nestie besties (lol).

    Looking forward to chatting with you, hope to see you at a gtg!

I'm Christina and my hubby is Steve we got married March 5th of this year. I feel like we are the only ones not ttc right now... we thought about doing it next year but dh decided he wanted to become a pharmacist so that threw off our planning but its ok : ) we live out in glendale and have two doggies. Looking forward to getting to know you and see you on the board and maybe at a gtg (I haven't gone to one yet but sounds fun)!!
  • Hello Kristen! I'm Jenn- 26 and I've been married to MH for a little over a year. We bought a home in Laveen together last April, and are just enjoying being a young married couple! We were TTC #1 but that's on hold for now. I do operations management and just switched from working in video relay to working in education. Glad to have you!

  •  It's great to "meet" you guys!   It looks like I'm free on the 30th, so I am going to try and make it to the GTG. Yay. 

    Which Cheesecake Factory will it be at?  

     

     Oh and, 

    Thanks for all the compliments on our little guy.. I think he's pretty dang cute myself.  ;)


  • Welcome to the board!

    My name is Jaye, and I've been married for almost a year and a half.  I'm originally from Canada and think that it's completely un-natural to live in the desert, even though I do so.

    I work full time for a non-profit org. as an accountant, and I'm currently studying for the CPA exam. DH is working on his PhD in statistics.  We are uber nerds.

    We just bought our first house in November and are constantly working on making it our own.

  • Hello & welcome!

    I'm Shawna, I will be celebrating my 3rd wedding anniversary on the 28th of this month.  DH & I live in Gilbert, no kiddos, and not currently TTC.  We do have two furbaby cats, and that's plenty for us right now.  We moved here just over a year ago from the Seattle area, but so far we love it!

    Looking forward to getting to know you a little more, and seeing you at the Cheesecake gtg!

  • Hi Kristen. Welcome from someone who just came out of lurking too!

    I have nothing exciting to say in introduction other then the hubs and I are 22, students, and live in the East Valley for now. We just have our brat of a dog that we rescued a couple months ago, she's a 2 yr old Husky who thinks she's a person.

    I might go to the GTG too so you won't be the only newbie there:)

    Your little boy is adorable by the way!
