All about my Big Ace

{I totally stole this one from Ashna. Thanks girl! I haven't had any material for awhile!}

Where did you meet? At Starbucks! Anyone who knows me probably already knows that though. as I LOVE to tell that story.

How long did you date before you were married? two and a half years. He proposed to me after 1 1/2 years and we were engaged for a year. It would have been sooner, but we already got married young. It was 5 days after my 21st birthday! Sooner than that would have been too early for us.

How long have you been married? it was 4 years in September. we've been together almost 7 now but it feels like we've just always been together. We were meant and made for eachother. :)

What does he do that surprises you? He is an AMAZING father!!! Like, the most awesome one that I've ever seen in my life. Not just because he's my husband, but because he literally outshines any other father figure that I've ever been exposed to in my life. He is patient, giving, firm, a good example, trustworthy, and he will do whatever it takes to be sure that his sons have the things they need and (within reason) want before any of his needs/wants are met. he puts his family first EVERY time.

What is your favorite feature about him? He has the uncanny ability to make me laugh even when I'm the most upset or depressed. Also, he's a big strong guy and I always feel safe and secure when he's around.

What is your favorite quality about him? The strength of his character. He always keeps his word and he says what he means and means what he says.

Does he have a nickname for you? He has plenty. The only time he really uses my real name is when he's upset. Mostly he calls me Babe or Baby but there are a few that I WILL NOT tell the internets because you wouldn't want to hear about them anyway. HA!

What is his favorite color? blue.
What is his favorite food? Pizza! He also loves to grill steaks and he's gotten pretty good at it.

What is his favorite sport? Favorites to WATCH are Football, Hockey, Basketball, Baseball. His favorites to PLAY are Hockey, Basketball and Golf.

Who said, "I love you" first? He did. He was on the phone with me when I still lived with my parents and he said "go out and check your mail". He had left me a letter talking about how he was falling in love with me and he was afraid to scare me off but he loved me and I thought it was the most awesome and sweet thing I had ever seen!

When and where was your first kiss? On my parents front porch the night our second date was over. I think actually the date is March 12th, 2002.

What's your favorite thing to do as a couple? Watch The news and Political TV together (because we are HUGE dorks...) and share our opinions on all of the issues and basically talk about how much we hate That Colmes guy and anyone on NBC news... Because again, we are the HUGEST of dorks. And we love politics.

Do you have any kids? An almost 3yr old and another little boy on the way!

What's a hidden talent that he has? I-i-i-i-i'm not at liberty to mention that one. :)

How old is he? he will be 27 in about 2 weeks!

What's his favorite type of music? He likes all kinds. Depends on his mood. But he loves his music LOUD.

What do you most admire about him? He's good at pretty much everything he tries, except for... well, no! He never does bad at anything he tries to do. Stupid perfect husband.

What's his favorite pastime? Anything to do with sports.

Do you think he's going to read this? yes

TAG! You're it. (whoever reads this)

26 weeks


Hello there!

Yes, as of tomorrow I am officially 26 weeks. Wow. So far I've gained a grand total of 13 pounds and i have NO FRICKIN IDEA how that's happened. Today alone, I've eaten 3 cherry fruit pies and I had a slice of cheese pizza with some spicy-hot cheetos and a lemonade for breakfast.... I have been the SUCK at watching my nutrition towards the end of either of my pregnancies. It just seems like some little voice in my head keeps chanting "donut holes.... DONUT HOLES... DONUT HOLES LADY, EAT! NOM!!"

Aaaannd eat them, I do. At every opportunity. So, what's up with the 13 pounds? I dunno. I also don't want to look a gift horse in the mouth or whatever so I guess I should stop talking about it and just be glad, huh?

Hmm... I feel like I don't have anything witty or entertaining to say today, so you get pictures!!! Yay! How exciting for you! Now, please excuse me as there is a bag of Red Vines in the pantry calling my name. (SNORT)

(Us last weekend at a local nature park. My family? We are the beautiful :) )


( I love this shot even though it looks like I'm using the wall to hold up the weight of my bump)


(See what I meant by beautiful?! He makes the prettiest babies, I'm tellin' ya)


(I am the luckiest woman in the universe. The most blessed human being there ever was. Do not try to convince me otherwise because seriously? LOOK WHAT I GOT.)


And yes, his shirt says "I <3 Hot Moms" heehee.. The End.
