What is with 4:38?
I wake up every morning (for the past couple of weeks) at exactly 4:38 am. I do not have to be up until 6:15 though! It is very frustrating that i am loosing sleep. I just want a good nights rest. Is that too much to ask for?

NOPE...not YET
Could this day move any slower...? I am so ready to do home. It is 15:28 (3:28 for you all who didnt know). I don't get off until 16:30. I am just ready to go. My back is starting to hurt on the right side and i just want to sleep...THAT IS ALL I WANT TO DO!!!...I feel like I am about to go crazy from sitting at this desk. HELP
What a day so far.....
So it's 1031 am and i am sitting at my desk at work...tired....i wonder why???
Here is a little background........
My name is Kiera McFadgen, formerly Bowman. I am 24 years old and happily married to the man of my dreams, Kenneth. We attended the same high school (he was a year ahead of me) but we never talked. After i graduated in 2002, i attended college at Delaware State University. I "met" Kenneth again when he came to my sisters birthday party with my cousin in 2004. He had just returned from his tour in Japan. He is in the Marine Corps. We hit it off instantly and i guess the rest is history. He proposed on March 17, 2006 (my sisters birthday!) at my graduation from Air Force boot camp (i joined after finishing college in January of 06). I planned my wedding via telephone and emails while i was in Tech School for my job in Wichita Falls, Texas. My mom and friends were amazing! Kenneth and I were married on June 24, 2006 at Victory Chapel in Accokeek, MD. It was a great day! We started to try for a baby soon after, but with no luck. I became very stressed and anxious that it would NEVER happen for us, but everyone told me to be patient. I got stationed on Andrews AFB (back home) which was good because at the time Kenneth was at NAVSEA in Indian Head. Around December 06-January 07, we got the news that Kenneth would be leaving for another tour in Japan. he would be gone for a year. I was very sad, but at the time we thought it best to not apply for joint spouse and have me stay in MD to be closer to family. I continued at Andrews and he left for Okinawa, Japan in May 07. I went to see him for our anniversary in June 07 and again in February 08. It was a hard time for us, but we made it work. He finally got orders back to the states, and he returned in April 08. He got orders to Camp Lejuene, NC. It was 6 HOURS away but it was closer than JAPAN, so i didn't complain. Even though i am still at Andrews, we do see each other more often than before. He comes homes every other weekend or i will drive up there... I guess those little visits paid off. We found out we were expecting on December 12 2008. I was so excited. Everyone told us when we didn't expect it, it would happen...and IT DID!!! I am officially 10 weeks and 3 days today!
.......so now you see why I am so tired.....having morning sickness ALL DAY is no fun, but i know it will be worth it in the long run. I cannot sleep comfortably at night (which i though wouldn't start still i had a protruding baby bump). It is a lot to take in, but Kenneth and i are up for the challenge. Kenneth will be getting out the Marine Corps this march, so i am happy about that. I haven't decided if i am reenlisting yet. I am coming up on my 3rd year on 1 Feb, so its about that time to really think about my options and whats best for my GROWING family.
Well until next time.....back to work
