Background Check

This was my very first blog. A few years ago, but still very important.

Hello! This is my first "blog". I've never really done this before, but I had a conversation with a friend of mine tonight. Her husband is an avid "blogger" and I realized maybe this would be good for me. I've had lots of things on my mind lately and I need to get them off my chest.I'm 27 years old, married and have a -16 week old baby. For those of you understanding the (-) symbol, you may realize I have a baby on the way. Our first child! Awesome! Did you plan it? Everyone has asked us this. No, we didn't plan it. We were just doing what married couples do and BAM! Emeril sprinkled us with a little "baby" seasoning. We're happy about it though. It's been alot to deal with. I've been trying my hardest to deal with the all the stress of hormones, mixed emotions, nausea, weight gain, worrying, quitting smoking, constant urination. Don't feel too bad though, my wife has had some of those symptoms, too. She's actually doing all right now. She only has minimum symptoms now. The biggest one for me to deal with has been my "stench of cigarettes". She, a newly "former" smoker, notices my carcinogenic fragrance from miles away. Just something to get used to for me. We've been smoking companions since our first date.We've been together for almost 9 years, but have been married almost a year. Married March 15th, 2003 . Both of our parents have been married around 35 years. We just FIGHT sometimes like we've been married 35 years. We love each other though.We were born in a small town smack dab in the middle of Illinois. We both have 2 older siblings. She has 2 older sisters. I have 2 older brothers. We were born in the same hospital, in the same town, on the same day, of the same month, of the same year. Now if that's not a sychronicity, I don't what is. We were destined to be together. We just seem to forget that sometimes. For example when I'm drying myself on the bathmat, rather than inside the tub or while she's asking me, "Are you done in the bathrom? Well, because you left the light on."This has all just been a glimpse of my life. Thanks for taking the time to check this out and more importantly checking me out. Until next time.
