It seems like a huge milestone for us, and I'm not sure why, but Brian and I just celebrated our 5 year anniversary. Woohoo!
Somehow, it crept up on me and I only managed to get Brian a card (last-minute). I'm not making excuses, but a full time job, 2 kids, back to school, just trying to get by day-to-day left me unprepared.
I still can't believe it's been 5 years. Sometimes it feels like yesterday and sometimes it feels like FOREVER ago. I married my best friend, we have 2 beautiful and healthy children, and a great relationship. We are each other's better half. I love him more than words can say.
We had these grand plans of going to dinner and a movie on Saturday afternoon. The kids were staying at Grammie & Grandad's so we could truly have a break. We went to church at 2:30 and a movie (The Help, would totally recommend it!) at 4:30. The movie was a bit longer than we expected and I wanted to feed Maggie before she went to bed, to help ensure a better night for Grammie & Grandad. By the time the movie was out (we had clearly missed our dinner reservations) and we had finished feeding Maggie, it was 8:30 and close to our bedtime. We hurriedly had dinner at On The Border and headed home. We decided to try for a better (more relaxed and not so late) dinner at Em Chamas next weekend.
I woke up on Saturday morning to some flowers, a bag of donuts (donuts not pictured, Colin found them first!) and a very thoughtful book of our first 5 years together. Way to be thoughtful & creative Brian!
We look pretty good still, huh? For being low on sleep and all....
And...Brian surprised me with some pearl earrings on our way to church.
Me and my Maggie Mae. She's finally getting some rolls on her legs and some chubbier cheeks.
Last check she weighed 12 pounds 12 ounces.
Love this little girl!

Maggie and Grandad. She really enjoys her hands right now, sucking on them and staring at them.
