Nobody tells you how hard the first couple years of marriage can be. For us they were a huge time of growing, getting to know each other in a more personal way, and learning to live with the things about each other that just seriously got on our nerves. It was tough...Im not going to lie. I think most couples go through something like that when they are first married and just don't talk about it. Some of course don't, but we sure did. Praise the Lord we worked through our differences and idiosyncrasies and are now closer than ever before. Marriage is truly an amazing work in progress.
For our 7 year anniversary I had envisioned going out to a romantic dinner together and then doing whatever else we thought would be fun afterward. Well, with being on this precautionary bed rest thing I didn't know what the evening would entail. I had already had a blood pressure check in the morning and was told that the resting thing was working and to keep it up. So, that didn't leave much that we could do.
Well, Stew decided that it would be okay if we went out to eat locally in Owasso, instead of going to T-town. We checked my blood pressure before we left and it was normal, so we went to Olive Garden and had dinner. It was delish and I even got a piece of Pumpkin Cheesecake to take home. FALL in your mouth!!!!! We went back home and I assumed my potato position on the couch and we commenced to watching our Monday night shows. We LOVE Castle!!
Overall, we had a wonderful anniversary. Different than I may have imagined it would be and definitely different from our normal anniversary routine, but full of love for one another and our sweet unborn baby girl. We absolutely can't wait until she is here! I can't wait to spend many, many more anniversaries together and next year with our baby girl!
