How is possible to love something so much-- something that you don't even have yet? I feel that way when it comes to children. I feel like that's what my calling is (being a mother) even more so than nursing. And I feel like each month that it's put off is another month that I'm missing out. And I'm ready, believe me. I was born ready, I think. I'm already so in love with my future children, even though I have no idea what they look like, what they'll turn out to be...is that weird? You can give me all the advice about "staying young" and waiting "until I'm older," but it's mine and Daniel's life, and we feel like we're meant to have children early on. I want to be a mom more than anything in the world. Some days I think "Am I really only 22?" Because my mindset is SO not of a 22 year old.
So, as the next few months come around, please pray for me and Daniel! That we make the best decisions possible, and that things work out :) I have a lot of worries.

Monday, February 22, 2010
In a bum mood today. I hate when I have days off and Daniel has to work. That happens a lot and no matter how I try to work my schedule, his is always opposite. It's frustrating. Especially days like today that are cold, rainy, and gloomy. It's so depressing.
This whole work thing is driving me crazy...I feel like all I do is work and come home. Work and come home. I feel like I never have time off even though I have the next two days off. I'm tired ALL the time. I can never get any energy! I don't know what it is. I don't know what Daniel and I will do when we have a baby...I guess we'll work that out when that time comes. Hmmm. We'll probably need some babysitters...because, unfortunately, I can't stay home.
Anyway...caught up on some reading today. Got to sleep in. Bella is doing better about going to the bathroom outside (she really is doing well...she is such a good dog)! I think it's because we reward her every time she pees or poops outside-- haha :) She's my sweet baby, I don't know what I'd do without her!
I'm going to get a new cousin sometime in the next couple of weeks!! I'm excited about that. Maybe it'll be my turn soon :)
Hope everyone has a wonderful, stress free week!! One Tree Hill tonight and I am REALLY looking forward to it!!

Valentine's Day :)
I have pictures coming soon from V-day, but for now I'll just share it with you!
On Saturday, Daniel kicked me out of the house for about 5 hours. During this time he cleaned the entire house. I mean EVERY INCH OF IT. I have NEVER seen it that clean! I got home around 5 and I was so surprised :) It was nice to come home to a spotless house-- and I mean SPOTLESS!! He did so well :) That night we went to see Valentine's Day with Amy and Isaac. That was such a cute movie...a perfect movie for a couple going on their first date.
On Sunday I woke up to find a dozen red roses and some red tulips on the table. There were also two tall candles and my card sitting there. He said the candles were for the dinner he was going to cook for me tonight! He said we could go out or stay in, I chose to stay in :) He said he was going to cook me whatever I want and we would have a romantic candle light dinner. In the card was some money and he said that I could use it for whatever I want, so later that afternoon he took me to the mall and bought me a new Vera Bradley purse and a wallet to match.
We got home around 5 and he started cooking (Russian chicken, potatoes, salad, and a bottle of wine). It was PERFECT. It was so good and I definitely ate too much :)
It was an amazing Valentine's day...I couldn't have asked for anything more romantic. I love him so much!! It was our first Valentine's day married, and our 5th one together. I definitely have the best :)
Hope you all had a great Valentine's day as well!! Definitely not as great as mine though ;)

Getting prepared
Hello everyone :)
I started this blog...again...so I can update everyone on how things are going in mine and Daniel's life!
Daniel and I just went to the store and bought this weeks groceries--it's a lot healthier than what we usually eat. Which makes me a little worried. For example: we got 100% whole grain/wheat bread and I normally hate that. BUT we are both trying to get healthier. I want to make sure my body is healthy before a baby is living in there for 9 months :) I think that would be best for me, and for our future baby. With that being said, no one needs to "wonder" about anything-- I promise when it happens I will let all of you know!! What an exciting day that will be (any pre-pregnancy advice is much appreciated)!
Daniel and I are staying busy with work. He's working today, and I'm off. That's how it usually works. Most of the time we get weekends together; however, sometimes I have to work. I get off this weekend though :) Yay! I love Valentine's Day. I always have, even when I was single (which was...almost 6 years ago!). Maybe it's all the love and pink stuff around. Who knows :-p Daniel has told me I'm not allowed in the house at all on Saturday until the evening! I wonder what he's up to. Who knows-- guess I'll be spending a lot of time at my mom's house that day!!
So...my dad called yesterday just to check on me and Daniel and he said, "well, you have a new Valentine now" Awwwww!! Bless his heart. My Daddy has always been my Valentine :) He's so sweet isn't he?!?!? He wouldn't have it any other way. He loves Daniel to death! You would think they were father and son. They are so much alike!
The wind is really blowing today and it's 30 degrees. I won't be going outside today...

I love this quote by Charles Swindoll:
“The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our attitudes.”
