Remember the Intelligender Test I ordered a few weeks ago? Well, it finally came. Actually, the first one supposedly got lost in the mail and they quickly sent me a replacement. The waiting has been killing me. Since my marriage is in the dumps, I'm going to enjoy thinking about pink or blue for now. I did take a picture of my test result, unfortunately I can't find my camera connection cord to upload it. But....I … [Read more...]

what do you do? In your marriage that is. My husband and I have been married for over 7 years now. I'll admit we rushed into things, engaged 4 months after we started dating, 3 months later living together, 3 months later married and giving birth to our first child 4 months after that. It was a whirlwind, and mixed with pregnancy hormones a very difficult first year. In fact, all on one year we moved in … [Read more...]

13 Weeks

I've been debating for ohhh about 13 weeks now on whether or not to document this pregnancy like I did my last. Part of me is still thinking, "am I really pregnant again?"....lingering shock I suppose. The other part of me, the mommy worry, is still trying not to get overly bonded. I experienced a 2nd trimester miscarriage with my first pregnancy, it's really hard to let go of those fears. But worries aside, I'm … [Read more...]

Brick Wall

Everyone, including myself, always says the most important part of marriage is communication. True, true. But what happens when your husband has the communication abilities of a brick wall? I don't know. That's where I'm at.Last night my husband did something that hurt my feelings very deeply. Without airing out the dirty laundry...let's just say it wasn't divorce worthy but it did leave me sleeping on the very … [Read more...]

....but not the ones you're thinking of. If constantly doing laundry, dishes, dinner and floor scrubbing wasn't enough, now I have two houses to take care of. We're in the process of having a new home built....literally in our backyard. When we first started this adventure, I thought, "this is going to be so fun, picking out colors, styles, everything finally they way I want it".....yeah right! I must have been … [Read more...]
