I love that we have been friends with the Megows for so long! I remember years ago when Seth and Crissy were attached at the hip but swore up and down that they were "just friends." It's so neat to get to witness their love story first hand and get to be part of their growing family :) We have attended all of Stevie's birthday parties. Her 1st , 2nd , 3rd , 4th and now her 5th. It is CRAZY to believe it's been FIVE years since she was born. I remember going to visit Crissy when she was wayyyy overdue (or at least it seemed like she was haha) and she was sitting on the floor playing with newborn puppies. :) Now her little girl is SO GROWN. Stevie is one of my favorite kids ever. She's got an awesome personality (probably because I think she's a lot like ME hahahaha) and is so sweet. I'm so glad that even though she decided to have a sleepover this year that we were still able to come hang out before the girl time got going ;) The Monday night...
Don't get all excited! We are NOT currently in the "trying to conceive" process! However, I feel like I've been asked this question a lot lately and figured it was time to write a blog post about it :) Note : I am NOT any type of "expert" in this field. This is NOT advice for women who are dealing with diagnosed or even undiagnosed fertility issues. I did not intend for this to offend anyone or to paint myself as any type of professional in this matter. Be sure to discuss with your doctor any fertility questions or issues you my have. I have responded personally to all comments on this post and have also posted a blog entry in response to the comments, you may read that here . From now on any negative comments will be deleted from this post. Zach and I have been very, very blessed with easy conception experiences. I've known and read about so many women who are not as fortunate as we have been in this department and my heart truly goes...
Can I just say I've been doing awesome these past couple of years at knocking things off my "bucket list"? I've taken a photography course , watched FSU play UF at Doak , seen e very Best Picture film nominated for an Oscar , and now I've taken a self defense course :) I have always been a bit jumpy and quick to feel like I'm in danger in situations. Once in high school I remember I parked at the mall pretty far from the entrance (b/c I'm terrible at parking...) and a creepy un-marked big van parked in the spot right next to me. Heck no! I raced off and drove around a bunch then parked in a different area of the mall and had a security guard escort me to my car when I was ready to leave. Dramatic? Maybe. But I am HARDCORE about being safe. I'd rather be made fun of and be SAFE than be "cool" and be dead. Now that I have kids I am even more aware of my surroundings and often feel like I'm an easy target. Loading and unloadin...
