Let me introduce myself..

Hey everyone, my name is Jamie and I'm a 27 yr old newlywed from outside of Milwaukee, WI.

I just got married on June 20th, 2008 to my wonderful husband Anthony!! :-D Our wedding was beautiful and it was everything that we dreamed of (and planned for a year & half!) lol ;-)



We've been dating for 9 yrs prior to getting married. So why did we wait so long? Well, we got together when I was 18 and fresh out of a long term relationship. He was 25 and going through that "I still I'm 21 & single" phase in his life and I was 18 yrs old going through that "I know everything in life!" phase. Needless to say, our first 2 yrs together were rocky at times. lol

We actually took 2 yrs off (when I was 21-23) and that not only saved our relationship, it made it rock solid!! I needed to explore the world a little bit & grow up. He needed his space and time to get his career going. It was the hardest thing in my life to walk away from him for 2 yrs, but we kept seeing each other and working out our issues. The result? The most stable, rock-solid relationship with 2 happy and understanding and mature people! It was the best move in our lives. :)

So, now I'm here blogging about trying to conceive our first child! Oh god, that sounds sooo weird. Me? Trying to be a mom? Holy shit! Am I REALLY ready for this? HELL YES!!! :-D

I'll be 28 yrs old in November and Anthony will be 34 in March. We are older, wiser, settled, and stable. And most of all, we're ready to merge each of us into 1 human being. :)

So follow along with me about my ups & downs, daily struggles, mental hardships, and lots of wishing & hoping days for us to conceive our very first child!!! :-D

xoxo,
J.
