Enjoying married life :)

I really can't begin to describe how much I love getting to be with my best friend/husband all of the time! I have just been thinking lately about the weekends that I would spend on the road to get to come and spend a day here in Omaha with Nick, and I just can't say how glad I am that those have come to an end! Now we don't have to rush and try and fit everything into one day or weekend...we can just do what we want when we get around to it...not hurring necessary :) For example, this morning we got up and sat around that house for a bit trying to wake up. Then we decided to go hit some garage sales, go to the local Farmer's Market, and then we just took our time meandering through an outside shopping area called Village Pointe. The weather is just beautiful today and after Nick finishes changing the oil in my car we are going to go do some mini golfing and round out the night with some grilled steaks and corn :)

Lately we have been talking quite frequently about trying to start our family within the next year or so. Nick is going to be 29 this year and he, understandably, wants to still be young when we have a family so that he feels like playing with the kids and stuff, as do I! For the longest time we had been takling about waiting a few years before having kids, but the more we talk, the more excited we get, and I think the sooner it will happen! We have been discussing the idea of trying to get pregnant this winter so the baby would be born around next fall, but it all kind of depends on the job situation of his right now. He thinks ideally he would like to have another job and stuff before we get pregnant so that we aren't stuck at his current place (as we would be if I got pregnant because of it being considered a prexisting condition by many). However, I just don't want to wait too long :) Anyhow, so within the next couple months maybe I will have some different news ;)

Well I think this post has turned out to be a little more significant than the last, so I will stop while I am ahead :)

Updates and Rambling

Okay so maybe i am not as good at keeping up with blogging as I orginally thought I would be :P The past month has been really busy what with work, the puppy, and just life in general! I am still loving my job but just wish Nick and I could spend more time together, but at least we have more time together now than we did before we were married!

So the other day my best friend, Martha, called and told me that her boyfriend proposed to her! They are planning on getting married sometime in November as she is pregnant and is due probably at the beginning of February! I just still can't believe she is going to be a Mom! Makes me think about having kids and starting a family which Nick and I have been discussing lately, and we are thinking that maybe we will start "trying" next year, which is both exciting and nervewracking! I definitely want to have some "couples" time together first, but want to have kids while we still feel young enough to keep up with them!

Anyhow, in the past month I guess I haven't come up with much to blog about! If anyone ever reads this, I apologize for my absence, and will try to be more faithful in blogging!
