New Wife.

For some reason when I got married I thought I would magically turn in to some kind of Amazing Susie Homemaker, and I would be the perfect wife and know exactly what to do.



Surprise that didn't happen, and I don't know why I was so shocked that it didn't!

I thought I would be able to make all these cute things for our house, have our house put together and clean all the time, have dinner ready every night, and have myself be cute and put together. I feel like I don't know how to be a good wife. How am I supposed to know what we will want for dinner all week, and how am I supposed to magically have all the ingredients for everything that we want? How come our bedroom and bathroom don't look the way I envisioned it? Why isn't there enough space in our kitchen for everything, but yet our fridge is empty except for wedding cake (which if anyone wants any let me know, we have plenty)? What if he doesn't like the only things I know how to cook? How come there is not enough time in the day to get everything done?



I am pretty sure I am not the only now who ever felt this way. I just have to practice and one day I will become that Domestic Diva that I dream of being!

honeymoon pictures are coming... soon

I promise!!

Anyone have any good ideas for father/daughter mother/son dance and a wedding? I am stuck.

T-ball

I might have time to catch up on life now that my fiance is in Chile (I am not very happy he is gone) even though I still have a lot to do.

Today was Noah's last T-ball game and the only one I have made it to :(

He is so cute and a ball of energy.

Here he is stretching and practicing running

Hitting

Running to first base

Running home!

Talking with his friends!

Getting his trophy and shirt

Swimming

This week I am filling in at Megan and Brinlee's 'Mommy and Me' swimming lessons. Here are some pictures of Brinlee and Me swimming and splashing. She does so good!

Today!

I get married to the person I love most in this world in one month from today and let me just tell you, I cannot wait! I know that the month will go by so fast because I still have so much to do, and Josh will be gone for part of it. But I will try not to slack on blogging, but I can't promise anything.

I have had 2 bridal showers and have 2 more to go. I got so many great things. I need to work on thank you cards.

Also Josh and I have found a townhouse! We made an offer and they accepted it! Write now we are working on the loan and all the other stuff so hopefully we can close on it before the wedding. Its so cute, I can't wait.

I will try and keep everyone more updated!

LOVE LOVE LOVE
