Our Anniversary


Today is our 1st Anniversary!!

On this day last year I married my prince. I am one lucky girl...

If you are wondering how we've been struggling with infertility for over three years, being married only a year, here's a quick recap. I was married before and my infertility struggles began there. Then once Matt and I started dating we began trying right away, knowing of my infertility issues. So we have been through quite a bit even before our first year of marriage. We made it through a miscarriage and lots of emotional ups and (mostly) downs that come with infertility. It's definitely made us stronger as a couple.

And now, as we celebrate our first anniversary we have something else to celebrate as well! This lil' miracle we have growing!! Best gift we could ask for :)

I just would like my husband to know how much I love him. How much I appreciate how hard he works for our growing family. How I love that he can make me laugh through tears and how he makes me feel beautiful (even when I look like complete crap!). And how I still get butterflies every time he walks through the door...

Honey, you are the best decision I ever made :)

Today we are going to watch our wedding video and go out to dinner! We don't get to go out that much (thanks to infertility expenses!) so we are excited. Then maybe we'll rent a movie. Sounds like the perfect day to me!

It's funny because after the wedding last year we totally forgot to put these cocktail napkins out! We were so bummed. But it's kind of fun to use them today :)

If we are allowed an anniversary wish (being since it's our first!) we wish that this baby continues to grow and that come April we will be holding our lil miracle in our arms...

Love this post! Happy Anniversary! :) I was confused about you being married for a year and struggling with IF for three, but now it all makes sense. You guys have been through a lot in a short period of time and I can see it has made you stronger. Hope you have a very special night together, enjoying your miracle and here's to that April wish!!! :) xoxo

Aww! Happy Anniversary, what a wonderful way to celebrate! I've found that some of my favorite ways to celebrate are all really inexpensive and usually just at home. During a time when we're so busy and always on the go, just staying and *being* can feel like a real treat.

I hope you have a fabulous day- congratulations!
