6 Years!

This weekend Nicholas and I celebrated our wedding anniversary.  It was lovely!  We didn't get one another gifts instead we went on a date and spent some time alone.  Best ever!  In honor of the six years we have been married I am going to tell you 6 things I love about my Nick,

1.  He encourages me in anything I want to do.  He is my best and loudest cheerleader!

2. He will make a total fool of himself to make me laugh.  OH and I don't think he has ever told me that I embarrass him which is nuts!  Cause I am embarrassing.

3. He is an artist.  He writes beautiful music and takes beautiful pictures.  His love letters put mine to shame.  He is so very talented!

4. Nick is super devoted to me and our kids.  He has got to be the most loyal man alive!

5. Best father ever!  Cliche but the fact my kids look for him every morning and tell him that they hate him going to work makes me swoon!  They really love their daddy.

6. He is HAWT!  Yeah I love that about him.  That sounds shallow but DAMN he is FINE!

Embracing change

We have been doing a little adjusting around here.  That is probably the biggest reason for the lack of posts.  OH and we lost a set of rechargeable batteries so we have been switching them around to all of our electronic devices.  Obviously the computer mouse has been getting the short end of the stick.  Rechargeable batteries are crazy expensive!  I know they save me money in the long run but damn! 

Anywho... back to adjusting!  Nicholas, my fabulous husband, just got a new job and has been working a boat load.  That means 60-70+ hours most weeks.  That also means that I am now a SAHM.  YAY!  I feel like I have to pinch myself whenever I think about it.  I don't think it has really sunk in yet.  I have worked since I was 16 non-stop.  This last week we have been adjusting to never seeing Nick and to me being home full time.  Not seeing Nick has been rough for me and the kids.  He is part of my happiness.  That is not to say that my happiness depends on him entirely.  But he is by far my favorite person in the world.  He puts a smile easily on my face.  I am not trying to sound whiney!  I am so grateful for the sacrifice he is making for our family.  He amazes me more everyday.  I miss him though!  Whine whine whine!  I will say that the time we have together has been extra special.  We never fought much before but we haven't at all since he started 2 weeks ago.  The kids go nuts for him every time they see him.  It is freaking cute!  I think the four of us are already appreciating each other more.  Lets see how we feel a few months down the road!    

The whole point of this is to say that we have had some major changes in our life the last bit.  I am trying to learn to embrace change.  Which has never been easy for me!  Really who is it easy for though?  If you adjust well to change please give me some advice on how to accept and love it!

They said you had a birthday!

Happy Birthday to my sweet husband!  You freaking rock my world baby!

5 sweet years!

Today is Nick and my 5 year anniversary!  And oh boy has it been a good five!  I can honestly say that I am more happy and in love today than the day we were married.  He is perfect for me and he has been known to say that I am perfect for him!  I have always said that Nicholas isn't my other half.  2 halves only make one whole person.  We are whole on our own and that makes us the two happiest people around!  Sappy, no? Any ways....

Happy anniversary my love!
