About my family

Hello All!

This is my first ever blog! I am super excited to have a place that I can connect with friends and family all over the US. I am also excited to be able to document my growing family's adventures, and every day happenings.

About the Blair Family!

Ward Blair is my husband. He is currently employed at FedEx Express as a Ramp Agent here in Alaska. We met 9 years ago when we both worked at a local ice rink (not worthy of naming). We will have been together for 7 years on Dec 31, 2005. I am so surprised at how quickly time seems to have passed.

I am Kary Blair. I am an Accounting student at the University of Alaska Anchorage (aka UAA). This is my final year of schooling (unless for some reason I decide to go back). I am a type 1 diabetic. I was diagnosed a little over 5 years ago. It was just a couple weeks before my 20th birthday when I went to see my doctor because something wasn't right. Since then, I have been diagnosed with several other auto immune disorders, which aren't even 1/10 of as bad to deal with as diabetes. Right now, I am pregnant with my second child. We found out today that it will be a boy! We have a 16 month old daughter, Aubrey, who I will talk about more in a moment. I was born and raised in Alaska, and i would LOVE to get out and love somewhere else for a while (if not forever). Don't get me wrong, Alaska is beautiful. However, the dark, cold winters are seriously depressing, and I feel like they are totally starting to affect me. I love that all of Aubrey's Grandmas, Grandpas, Aunties, Uncles, and her Cousin are all in Alaska, and they are all such a HUGE help to us. I will miss them if/when we move, but hopefully some of them will move with us ;).

Aubrey Blair is our 16 month old daughter. She is amazingly smart, and talented, and the sweetest little girl in the world (no seriously, she is)! She is learning and growing everyday, and I am so excited to see how great of a big sister she will be to her baby brother. She loves her books, clothes, and shoes. She is our little miracle baby, and I love her more than she will ever know.

Baby Boy Blair is our son due April 28th, 2013. His name will be released once we have decided on a middle name. There are a lot of great family names to choose from, and we just need to decide which one matches his first name the best. He is growing and moving more and more. I can't wait to meet him (actually, I can. He should stay where he is for as long as he can, and get nice and chubby ;)). So far, my pregnancy has been amazing in-spite of the diabetes. My blood sugars have been amazing, and Baby Boy is growing right on track.

Well, I think I should get to bed. Wednesdays and Thursdays are daddy's long work days and it'll be just Aubrey and me all day. I am hoping Ill be able to keep up with this, and keep everyone in the loop! Thanks for reading!
