SUCCESS!
Export/Import - The Millers Lovestory blog is now on www.awallflowerinbloom.com
Time to start fresh! I am still keeping this blog, but for now my main one is A Wallflower in Bloom. Let the blogging begin!
Inspired
I have created a new domain for a new blog. I do not have it set up yet, but I am working on it. I just purchased the domain last night - www.awallflowerinbloom.com
I have been inspired to document my life via blog and videos. I know I have been doing this already with this blog and I will transfer all of my posts from here to my new one.
Once I get it up and running I will start blogging more about the positive in my life. I have a wonderful husband, a beautiful son and another baby on the way.
No more will I let people's judgements get the best of me. I am me. I will learn from my mistakes, grow from them and become a better person.
A friend emailed me and said this - "it's not the mistakes that define you, it's how you grow from your mistakes that mold you..." - she really opened my eyes and inspired me.
People can think what ever they want, they say I am unhappy, a bad person, etc. - I have realized it does not matter. I know I am happy. I have a wonderful husband, an amazing son and a little bundle of love on the way. I know I am a good person with a loving and caring heart.
I am pursing all my goals with my husband supporting me 150%. My family is my everything. They matter most in my life.
My new blog will be nothing but positive and happy posts. It'll be my journey with a new mindset.
Negative Jesse has left the building and no longer will this wallflower stay in the corner. It is my time to bloom.

The Future
This Thursday we find out how baby is doing and I will be 18 weeks pregnant. Hopefully baby cooperates and will let us see what is between the legs!
Hubby and I decided on the names for a boy and a girl -
Benjamin Bruce Miller
Emilia Danielle Nioko Miller
We are so excited to find out if JJ is having a little sister or little brother. He is going to be the best big brother ever. I can feel it, and I can tell because has such a kind and good soul. He is the sweetest boy.
I look forward to our family of three becoming a family of four, starting and finishing grad school, graduating with a masters degree, losing weight and getting into the best shape of my life and finding peace with myself. I look forward to having my family back together again as a whole. I look forward to pursuing my ultimate goal ;)
There is so much to look forward to in life and I am looking forward to overcoming all the challenges that will come my way. I have my husband and my babies and they are my motivation to move forward with my head held up high.

JJ's 1st Pediatric Dental Appt
JJ did so well at this appointment today. He did have his first dental screening on July 5th when we had our WIC appointment. I made an official appointment not too long after. They pretty much did the same thing - brushed his teeth with fluoride and then checked his teeth. The dentist said to brush his teeth (which we do) every day.
JJ did not cry nor fuss. He is such an awesome boy. Love him to death!

Random Post
If I were still a pre-nursing student I would have my second A&P course starting today at 9a. Since I am no longer a pre-nursing student (second bachelors),
In 16 months (starting September) I will have my Masters in Public Health. I am one excited Momma!!
---------------------------------
These last few days have been emotionally exhausting. I allowed myself to over think what people thought about me and I let people's opinions/judgements get the best of me.
I own up to my mistakes and I will change for the better. I will make more mistakes and all I can do is learn from them. People will not approve of everything I do and people will dislike me and I will still be me at the end of the day.
The more I thought about what people thought about me, the more I kept putting myself down. I have decided for myself that it is high time I grow a pair and man up.
No more weak Jesse. No more caring too much about what people think and say about me. All that matters are the opinions of those that really matter to me (great advice from a good friend). No more putting myself down because of what people say.
There are more important things in my life - my babies, my husband, my parents and bro, finishing grad school, reaching my goal for my family and my happiness.
Not only did I care too much about what people thought...for too long I let people walk all over me and disrespect me because I did not want to cause any friction. I was always worried people would be angry with me and that meant putting how I felt on the back burner. Never again.
I will succeed in everything I do because I want to and I will work hard to get there.
Yesterday is in the past, today I start fresh and I will stay positive.

Marriage and Pornography
This is an interesting topic. It came up in a conversation via text messages with a family member. I was told that it is funny that I got "worked up" over it, but I just wanted my family member to understand my point of view. But it was clearly stated by the end of the text conversation (by my family member) that I am "THAT insecure".
Here is my personal value/belief on the topic of pornography in marriage -
Everyone has insecurities and it is not funny to make fun of people because of them. Yes I have my insecurities, but they have nothing to do with me not wanting my husband to watch pornography.
When we got married I made it clear that I believe watching it individually is very disrespectful to me and to our marriage. Together, sure why not! But once you start watching it on your own for individual pleasure...it becomes disrespectful.
For some couples they enjoy it, I respect that. For others it is not okay. For my husband and I there is no pornography. I am the only woman that he should be thinking about and he is the only man for me. Hey if he wants some dirty pictures, I am more than happy to give him some (insert smile here) and vice versa. Our long distance marriage is tough and with technology today, sending each other videos and pics of each other keeps the spice alive.
So going back to what I was saying...
If my husband wanted to watch pornography then he should have not gotten married. I am blessed to have a husband that respects our marriage and respects me and my values. He has not watched any porn since we had our heart to heart. We are going on three years of being married. He is amazing. Yes, he is in Oregon and it is hard to know what goes on, but I trust him and have faith in him that he keeps his word. You just know with the one you love.
Because I do not want my husband to watch pornography DOES NOT make me "THAT insecure". It is OUR value in OUR marriage. We are committed to each other in love, trust and faithfulness.
No ones insecurities are greater than someone else's. An insecurity is an insecurity period. But it is NOT always the reason for a lot of situations. One being pornography and a significant other.
I posted in one of my Mom groups on Facebook about this conversation. The lovely mamas that did answer, believed in the same thing and some love watching it with their spouses. Every one has their own preferences. A lot of them said they are NOT insecure about themselves, they just believe porn is disrespectful in marriage. So, it is not just about being insecure.
What works for my husband and I may not work for another couple, but this works for US. We believe that it is not necessary to use in order to get it on behind closed (bedroom) doors.

17 Weeks and JJ turning 16 mos!
First off JJ turned 16 mos on 07.30.2013 -
We had a Mommy/Son date and we had a great time!
Today 08.01.2013 -
Hip hip hooray I am 17 weeks today! One week from today we will find out if we are having a boy or girl! That is if the baby cooperates and spreads the legs. Hahaha. I am super excited! Plus I cannot wait to find out how he or she is doing.
This past week has been pretty good and pretty blah. JJ turned 16 mos and hello week 17.
I've learned what family really thinks of me. One told me in a very mean way and another told me in a nice adult conversation. Either way I appreciate them for telling me and now I know what I am. I am not going to say it does not hurt. It does. The truth always hurts. All I can do is change for the better.
The one who I had a nice conversation with said that I am not used to going through these type of situations. I mean high school yah...but adulthood, nope. It is different as adults. I'd rather talk face to face as adults vs getting all the information whether it is through Facebook messages, texts or emails. I am happy this person actually sat down and told me face to face, even though it was via FaceTime. At least this person looked at me and told me straight up. It was much easier to take in.
I will cry about it, I will think about it and it will eat me up until it passes and has been forgotten.
I am owning up to it. I am sinner and I am not perfect. I make mistakes like every other human being. I am not better than anyone. I am me. I can and I will change for the better.
People's opinions of me should not matter, but it hurts. It will always hurt.
It makes it harder to deal with because I am pregnant (so my emotions and hormones are on high! I am extremely hormotional!), so everything coming at me is very overwhelming.
I was told there is never a right time to be confronted, I agree. I think for now it is best that I lay low. I've apologized and let them tell me how they feel about me. There is nothing more I can do. Just move on and keep going with life. I will dwell on it for a while and then hopefully just forget.

Baby Names
In two weeks we will find out how baby is doing and what gender baby is! That's if baby cooperates and spreads eagle. Hahaha!
We have narrowed down the names:
Boy - Benjamin Bruce Miller
Girl - Danielle Monroe Nioko Miller
BUT I am considering Emilia. I think I will talk to Josh about that. If we have a girl we will wait after she is born to determine her name. Sometimes you have to see the baby so you can decided if the name fits.
I will be 16 weeks tomorrow! Super excited. I cannot believe how fast this pregnancy is going. More on that next post.
Time to study for exam número tres. I cannot wait for this class to end.

06.30.2013 - 15 Months
Our baby boy is growing up so fast! I cannot believe he is now a 15 month old toddler. He needs to slow down because I want to cuddle him and give him kisses a little longer. Hahaha what am I saying? Even when he is 18 I will still smother him with Momma's love.

Another MILESTONE!!
JJ finally let go and walked! He has been walking since 12 months but he would just cruise walk, take a few steps and walk if we held his hand.
Today he decided he wanted to be a big boy and walk on his own! I was so proud and wanted to cry tears of joy.
Also! I gave him his first haircut.
I saved a little piece of his hair and tied a ribbon around it. I am going to put it in his baby book. His hair turned out awesome! It's a little uneven in the back but it's not really noticeable. I will be taking him somewhere to get it cleaned up, probably in a few weeks.
Daddy didn't miss out! We FaceTime'd when JJ was walking over the place. I do wish he were with us. I miss him so much.
Today was a fantastic day!

Bandl's Ring
When I was pregnant with JJ my baby belly was never round - like the letter D. My belly was in the shape of a B. Bandl's ring is a ring around the uterus that prevent the uterus from contracting during labor. I did not find this out until JJ was in distress and my temp/heartbeat kept rising. The operating doctor (NOT MY OB) told me about this condition.
Now that we know what is up with my uterus, this current pregnancy will be a scheduled c-section.
When I tell people this, they automatically assume I chose to have a c-section and that really irks me. If I could have a natural birth I would, but I can't. This is not by choice. But for the safety of my baby I will do whatever it takes.

Study Break!
I am currently at the National University Library at the Spectrum Center studying for my first Anatomy/Physiology lecture and lab exam. So far I think I have lab pretty much down (not all, but def more confident with the lab exam). As far as the lecture part goes...two thumbs down! I cannot for the life of me I cannot get any of the lecture in my head.
The library closes at 5p so I have about an hour left before heading home. I should have came earlier but I spent time with JJ.
We went swimming in the backyard this morning and it was nice. Grandpa bought us a inflatable pool. It is big enough for me to lay down in and shallow enough for JJ to sit in. He had a blast.
I am so tired. I am not physically tired but more mentally. This class is going to drive me nuts. My Mommy/preggie brain cannot handle all the information. I am so not used to school anymore. It is taking me a some time to get back into the swing of things. After this first exam I really need to get down to business because I cannot afford to bomb another test (that is if I bomb this first one!)
Study break ovahhhhh!

Family Time
Yesterday (Cinco de Mayo) we spent quality time at the park. It was sunny and a good 70-80+ degrees outside.
We met up with a Mommy and her 9 month old son. I met her at the Great Cloth Diaper Change a few weekends ago.
She took this picture of us and it totally captured the happy place we were in...

Wake up its the first of the moooooonth!
Hello May! Also today is my Mothers 62nd birthday! The best present we have given her (well one of the best...JJ being last years birthday present) is grand baby #2.
Per the pregnancy app on my iPhone my EDD (estimated due date) is December 22nd, 2014. That is per the first day of my LMP (last menstrual period). So as of today I am 6 weeks and 4 days pregnant.
I will see a doctor once back in San Diego. I will most likely see the same OB/GYN that I saw while I was pregnant with JJ.

Monday (late) night blog...
In about 15 minutes it will April 30th and my baby boy will be 13 months old. He is growing up so fast and I am one proud Mommy.
We have not made an official announcement (and no one really reads this blog...haha) yet but family (some) and close friends know...
We are expecting baby #2! We are so excited and are so blessed! I actually did not want to take another pregnancy test because I did not want to be disappointed again. In the last four months I have went through probably..6 boxes of pregnancy tests. On April 28th we stopped by Target and picked up a few things along with the box of PTs. I took it and slowly the second line started to show up! OH MY GOODNESS! I CRIED!! Husband cried and JJ did not know what was going on. Haha.
I Facetime'd my cousin first to have second verification, my aunt was in the room with her. Then I Facetime'd my parents. We are all so excited!
JJ is going to be a big brother!

It has been ages!
Hello there! It has been a good while since I really blogged. Now that JJ has regular sleep schedule I should be able to blog a few posts here and there.
My darling baby boy is now a toddler! I cannot believe how fast one year went. Babies really do grow up so fast. He is walking now and when he takes steps I want to cry! He is a little boy now...not a baby, but in my eyes he will always be my baby.
A little update...
JJ and I will be moving back to California while darling husband stays up here in Oregon. Husband will still be working at Epson and is now active Reserves. He will be doing his Navy stuff one weekend a month and one week a year. He said if there is opportunity for a deployment he will take it. I love him so much. He is doing everything he ca to support us.
We will be back in San Diego and I will be attending National University. I start my pre-reqs for the accelerated BSN program. The accelerated BSN program is the nursing program for people who already have a bachelors degree. I am going to work my butt off to get As and Bs in all the pre-reqs.
Hopefully by July husbands GI Bill will officially be transferred to me and we will be receiving CA housing allowance, which will help us big time since I will not be working.
We will be driving down to San Diego May 13th. Grandma (my Mom) will be flying up on May 11th.
That is what is going on right now. Honestly I am not looking forward to leaving husband. I am going to miss him so much! He said it is going to be like a deployment...except he is just in another state.

Unncessary Drama
Military wives drama. OH MY GOODNESS! Hahahaha. I sure do not miss it. I will not go into too much detail about it, but it sure was unnecessary.
I actually was honest and civil. But the other party was hostile and very rude. Curse words were involved coming from the other party! I was told to stop responding (I cleaned it up) and the funny thing is...all I said was "I wish you and your family all the best. Take care." Keep in mind this was all via text. You cannot convey tone in text so I kept it clean and polite.
In my opinion, I think this party was trying to get me to say bad things back. In the end I still ended with "take care" and they did not reply after that. I want to say because they did not get what they wanted out of me they decided to stop. Yes I came out the BIGGER person and got the last word in.
We are not in high school people. Text messages, social networks, INTERNET in general give people power. Take that away...and what do you have? You have people who cannot be themselves.
This person lives off of drama. She made contact first and is the one that turned it all into a big deal.
All I can say is GOOD RIDDANCE. No one needs any negativity in their lives. At first I was kind of sad, but my darling husband said that their opinions of me should not matter. He is right. They can say all the negative things they want, but I know who I am and I am loved. She is only one person...one who was not meant to be a friend or in my life.
Now that is all off my chest. I can inhale deeply and smile. HOLLAH ;)

I actually was honest and civil. But the other party was hostile and very rude. Curse words were involved coming from the other party! I was told to stop responding (I cleaned it up) and the funny thing is...all I said was "I wish you and your family all the best. Take care." Keep in mind this was all via text. You cannot convey tone in text so I kept it clean and polite.
In my opinion, I think this party was trying to get me to say bad things back. In the end I still ended with "take care" and they did not reply after that. I want to say because they did not get what they wanted out of me they decided to stop. Yes I came out the BIGGER person and got the last word in.
We are not in high school people. Text messages, social networks, INTERNET in general give people power. Take that away...and what do you have? You have people who cannot be themselves.
