Hello out there in blog land! This is my maiden voyage, popping my blog cherry......
So, many of my mates are bloggers, and I've been enjoying reading along, so I thought it high time to offer up something in return.....hope it doesn't bore you to tears ;-P
My name is Jen. Officially it's Jennifer, but it sounds so umm, formal(?) long (?). I barely use it. I loathe being called Jenni, after the whole Forest Gump movie "I love you Jen-ni" said in that rather mentally challenged sorta way....it haunted the end of my high school days, eek! So, it's Jen, or JenJen...which is my fave and what most of my family call me. With the exception of my Grandma, who will never get her poor dementia mind around not calling me Jenni, so I let it slip. And my Dad, who often calls me by my whole name, Jennifer Elizabeth. I love my middle name, I used to wish it were my first name. Growing up my Mum sometimes called me Bethy, then Libby and my bro changed that to Jibby(J from Jennifer + ibby from Libby), and this stuck as a family nickname.
Tyler and I have been married since 2006, together since 2002. We met through SES, in 2000, he a cadet through his school and me a farely new member. It was not love at first sight, not the slightest. He very much was a "class clown" and our first few joint ventures involved him picking on me, and he thought I was too shy and stuck up! By the time he joined as a full member in 2002, we had both grown up a bit, and saw each other differently. We got pushed together by a mate, and started dating 3 days after my 20th birthday, Tyler was 2mths off turning 19yo....yep I got me a youngin ;-P
We have had many ups and downs together, but in the here and now, our life is trotting along nicely.
We were blessed with our son, Jack Leo, born 4wks early on the 20th of June 2008. He is the absolute light of our lives, and has awakened our souls.
We are also pet parents to a maltese poodle dog, Polly, a cat, Sophie, and a budgie, Belle.
So, there's the basics......I'm officially a blogger!!!!
