Well, I am sure you are all shocked to hear that I am actually still alive! 
Paige, Duster the dog and I are in Kansas for the next month.  A 2 week trip is now a month long trip. My sister Jessie graduates from high school on Sunday, and that was the main reason that we came home.  But Jerad was unable to come along because a week ago they decided he could not take the leave he had requested 2 months ago, and he has to attend classes at Fort Bliss for the next month. Not a happy guy about that one. But we are in Kansas until the middle of June or so, so if you have the time, give me a call, or send an email....and maybe we can get together for a day or so.  Who knows. 

Well I had my baby girl on March 14, 2006 at 2:23 in the afternoon.  She was 7 lbs, 11 oz and 19 inches long.  And if I do say so myself, the most beautiful baby ever.  But I may be a lil bias.  Labor was the worst thing EVER!  30 hours of hell.  yeah..you saw that right, 30 hours! My epidural didn't work, and when they finally decided to do a C-section....my spinal block wore off in the middle of the operation.  So after I screamed for about 2 minutes that I was feeling PAIN, they knocked me completely out to finish up everything.  Not a good experience, but to be honest, Paige Lynn is worth it!  I would do it again in a heart beat if I could get another perfect baby like her.  All the pain was forgotten when I saw that perfect little face.  She is a really great baby, not too fussy, happy little girl.  I love being MOM, it is the best thing in the world. 

Jerad is doing good.  Trying to get us transfered out of Fort Bliss already.  I don't like it there, and neither does he.  He doesn't like the people he is working with, where he is working, and the things they are making him do.  It is not good.  He spent 2 months learning how to be a truck driver, and he has yet to drive a truck in Texas. They have him doing all their computer work and other really stupid crap.  He really doesn't like that.  Well anywho.

I am doing great.  I am already back in all my old clothes.  All the weight I gained was all baby and as soon as I had her, I was back to my old self with a couple changes, but nothing major.  It's great. 

Well I need to go, baby is waking up. Mommie to the rescue!

SEND ME EMAIL OR CALL ME!!!
lots of love

Well it is the night before Christmas, and all through the house, there is no sign of Christmas, not even the X-mass mouse.  But that is ok.  Jerad and I are here in El Paso Texas, he is signed to Fort Bliss, and we have finally moved into our house.  The puppy dog is adjusting well to the new house.  Just likes to tear up things from the trash can when Jerad and I leave the house.  Oh well, we will get him out of that I hope. 
I'm doing well.  Getting a big belly on me.  Almost cried when I couldn't almost get my prego pants on the other day.  Oh well such is life.  But only about 11 more weeks until baby girl Brewer is here.  I still need some name ideas. But even if we do pick a name before she is here, I don't think we will tell anybody at all.  Something has to be a suprise.  OH well. 

Well, I am going to go for now.
Merry  Christmas to all of you.  I miss you and I wish you the best in the New Year.

Lots of Love
Margaret

Well another month came and went, and Jerad is still gone.  Such is life.  He will be home in about two weeks though. 

We found out Friday that everything is going well with the baby, all is looking like it is supposed to, measures like it should for as far along as I am, and...IT IS A GIRL!  She was trying to take a picture of the baby's head so she could get her measurments, and the baby flipped around, mooned us, and spread her legs.  Now Jerad is calling me a Weiner Snatcher, but seems to be excited.  Which is good.
But anywho.
I hope all is well at Baker.
Lots of Love
Margaret

I can't stop listening to this durn CD.  It really isn't old yet.  And I still plan to marry one of them if this whole marriage thing to Jerad doesn't work out. 

In case you took that wrong, marriage is great.  It just sucks him having to be gone months at a time.  Speaking of which!  One of my Best friends, Teresa, who got married in June, her and her husband are going to be on CNN!!!  They picked him and her to follow for 3 days to see how they communicate, and how things are in a brand new marriage when one of them is on the other side of the world being shot at.  Pretty nifty!...well not the being shot at part, YOU GET WHAT I MEAN!  
 My T....a STAR!  haha..shes not too happy about doing this, but he is, so shes going to do what she can. 
Jerad and I have been married for almost 4 months....yeah, and hes been gone for 2 of them.  Such is married life.  Had another break down...couldn't pull my jeans on...had to find moms sweat pants.  So I cried about that, ate a doughnut, and then yelled at my sister about it.  Life is great. 

The only thing I've been doing lately is working on my dressers, and trying to find Jerad the puppy he wants.  So far, I've been close but no dice....so we will see.

Gonna go
Lots of Love

Oh Hellro!
Well I"m glad that I have been hearing from all of you.  I know the phone works both ways, but as I have said so many times before, I only have like 2 peoples numbers. 

Anyway.  We have moved everything out of Fort Riley, and Jerad is about through with his first week of classes at Ft. Lost-in-the-woods.  Things for me are going better.  We had to do something different with the wedding/baby shower. Mom and her friends are sending out announcements for a gift card party.  If you are offended because you dont get one, let me know, I'll make sure you get an announcement.

I had my Doctor appt Monday at Riley.  Everything is looking good.  I'm not fat anymore, I'm prego!  haha.  Somehow that makes everything seem a little better.  I don't feel like crying.....as much......when I can't get into my own pants.  I've actually only gained 1 pound.  I lost about 6, but gained those back, plus 1...so I'm doing good.  Makes me happy.  Still trying to think of names...still not having much luck.  My mother seems to have an attachment to the name Kayli Lauren.  I like it too.  If its a boy, I'll name it something funky like Banjo....I saw that on VH1....Awesomly Weird Celeb Baby Names.  Not kidding, somebody named their son Banjo.  AHH!

Next appt is on Friday Nov. 4th.  SHOULD be able to find out that day what the baby is.  But knowing my luck, the baby will not work with us, and it is going to be a mystery the whole time!  Oh well.  Such is life. 

GIVE ME NAME IDEAS!!!!

PS New Nickelback.....FREKIN GREAT! I love them....maybe my second marriage will be to one of them. (kidding)
