Meet the Family!

Vintage Rosie (yes it's a girl in a Batman shirt)

So, as I've said before, we have a very diverse family. Our family may be a little on the odd side, but it works for us. We love each other and are there for each other daily. So, first up is myself:

My name is Andrea, but I use 'Drea' for short. I'm 23 and a mother to 2 beautiful kids. I have a cosmetology license, but after going through beauty school and working in a salon for a few months I've decided that working in that industry is not for me. I'll be a student at the local community college this Fall. My goal is to become an RN. My journey through becoming a mother has given me a huge interest into the process of making babies. So, I'm hoping to focus my career on that. My major interests are food, baking, Harry Potter, video games, and having a weird liking of cat GIFs.
 

 So, now comes David, my fiance. He is 25 and works a freelance video game tester. He also suffers from OCD. He thinks the germs are out to get him. This makes certain things in our house a little weird, but more on that later.

Besides doing game testing he spends his time doing things like playing more video games, playing Magic the Gathering, Comic Books (mostly DC though), and Star Wars (he really loves Star Wars).  He also really hates pictures of himself. I pulled this one from last Thanksgiving, the other guy is his Dad.

My first child, Rosalie aka 'Rosie'. She's now 2 and a half (holy crap!) and was born August 13th 2010. The whole story of her birth is traumatic at best, but I'll touch base on that later (more than likely).

Rosie does have a different biological father. It was a long time ago and he is no longer in the picture. David has been her Dad since she was 8 months old, he is the only father she knows and loves him. We have talked about having him adopt her after we are married, but we will cross that bridge when we get there. Rosie is a well adjusted 2.5 year old that loves Bubble Guppies, Pokemon, and making giant messes.

Lastly, is my second child; Cade. He was born on
12-31-12 and is nearly 3 months old. He is my little rainbow baby. David and I had a loss before we conceived him. He is the best little boy ever.

Now, a little on him. His name is from the Star Wars Universe. David wanted to name him after his favorite character from the graphic novels and I'm fine with it. Cade enjoys sleeping, eating, staring at faces, and sitting. You know, typical baby stuff.

This is our geeky little family! As time goes on I will add more to our story. I love being a mom in our unconventional family. I hope you all love us too.
