I was reading one of my journals the other day--One I kept right before and once I met my husband. It was funny reading what I thought about him when we first met. One thing I read that I thought was funny was how we were talking about "starting a family." We were contemplating it not long after we got married. I was ok with the idea, but I still wanted to "finish school, start my career, go 4-wheeling, jet skiing, and visit another country." I've done all of those things in the past year.
Next Tuesday we'll have officially been married for four and a half years! It's so crazy how time flies. Sometimes I still feel like a newlywed. One thing I've been thinking is I'm really going to kick up the notch with this Baby Bucket List of mine. I'm getting so much closer to turning my Baby Makin' Machine on, I can taste it! I've got a sorta-deadline in mind to try to make a baby, and completed list or not--I'm getting busy!
Pertaining to the list and deadline--I have fun news and exciting things in store soon, and I can't wait to put it all out here to share!
In other news, for the next little bit I've decided to spruce up some blog stuff around here. I know more of
