6 Years and Counting

Today is Flag Day and our 6 year anniversary. I can't believe it is already 6 years. It has flown by and doesn't seem like I'm old enough to be having my 6th anniversary but here we are. A couple of pics from the wedding too.

James and I in the greeting line.

Me and the cutest little flower girl - my cousin Janie's daughter Alexandra. This kid loved the camera. She kept turning and posing anytime her name would get called.


And what kind of post would it be without a car? So here we are leaving in the '57 Ford Retractable Skyliner.

So in honor of that I have a top ten list of why I love my husband. And these aren't in order like David Letterman but they are just listed. :-)

10. He will try to fix anything. My car, his car, the house. Usually his car and then the house of course.
9. He always tells me I'm pretty. Even when I feel like a big cow like right now.
8. He takes great care of me and I know he'll be a great dad too.
7. He keeps things in order because I'm not always so organized.
6. He is always goofing off and makes me laugh. Most of the time. :-)
5. He is always willing to help someone else. (Mostly with car related problems.)
4. He loves his family and is a great son, brother, etc. He even remembers to call his grandparents on their birthdays.
3. He puts up with me and all of my craziness and loves me in spite of it.
2. He is always trying to be a better person. And helps keep me doing the same.
1. He is great with my family too. He has been the teasing older brother to all my sisters. Well, at least the first now that we have 2 others.

I'm really lucky I found him. And I'm really grateful that we have grown individually and together over the last 6 years and that we have many more to go. I love you tons honey!!

And then the other quick update. 10 weeks now. So the baby is now the size of a prune. Moving through the fruit section here. And here is the pic of my tummy and how I'm getting too fat for all my clothes. :-( Not looking prego but looking like I downed a dozen donuts.
Still no sickness - I do have to eat pretty much constantly or I get really killer headaches and nausea. But not the all day kind of thing.
Can't sleep through the night without waking up at least once and usually twice. And then I can't sleep past about 6:45 or 7 because my tummy will be so hungry it wakes me up. And boy if I don't get something in it right away, I really regret it. :-)
Ok well that is my quick update. We go in next Thursday the 25th for our 12 week appt. and the downs syndrome test. We have opted to not do the amnio since it is so much more invasive and will just have them measure and then if we get a really high likelihood we'll consider the amnio. Think that is it.
Here is the pic.
