Didn't think I could love him any more

             ****WARING**** 

This is a sappy post about my love for my husband, if you do not like hearing sappy/cheesy live stories do not read this. And just know this will not be the last sappy love post I write.

Brad Paisley's song "Then" says it best 

"Now you're my whole life

Now you're my whole world

I just can't believe

The way I feel about you 

We'll look back someday

At this moment that we're in

And I'll look at you and say

And I thought I loved you then"

I thought I knew what love was and then I met Justin. It was September of 2011 and I Facebook stalked him after he had requested to add me as a friend. I sent him a message asking if he wanted to hang out some time and left my number. Later that night  he sent me a text, and I invited him to a movie in the park and the rest is history. It took a little bit longer for me (not too long though) to figure out just exactly how much I liked him, and when I did I fell hard and fast. I experienced true love with a guy who was madly in love with me. We got married December 30, 2011, fast I know but when it's right, it's right. 

Then six months later we moved to south Florida where he is currently attending Medical School. It's been just me and him and we have never been more in love with each other. He is my other half and I could not imagine a life with out him. He is very patient with me, and is able to put up with my weird habits. He is a strong member of our faith and makes me a better person. And I thought I knew what love was.

Then the man I love gave me the greatest gift I could ask for. He gave me a family. October 14, 2013 we found out we were going to be having a baby! 

June 12, 2014 we had our beautiful son Carter! The moment I saw Justin with tears in his eyes after he was born was priceless. Then after they take us to our room after labor I see this

 

 

Watching the Heat game with his son. And it doesn't stop there

Every time I see him holding Carter I fall in love with him over and over again. Seeing how much he loves our son and how he was during the labor with me I know he feels the same way. 

Like the song says "I thought I loved you then," every time I think I couldn't love Justin any more than I all ready do, it manages to grow more and more. I know this is not where it ends, I am looking forward to raising our children and growing old. My heart still races when we kiss. He is mine for eternity and I am grateful for the opportunity to fall in love with my husband every single day of our lives. To me this is a love of a life time and I know I will never love anyone else like the way I love him.   

  

Mommy Life

I am learning a couple if things about being a new mom, the number one thing that I have come to terms with, I will ALWAYS have spit up on me! Wether or not Carter burps after he eats, he always spits up; mostly on me, never on dad. 

The second thing I have learned, shopping  is not fun anymore. I am starting to understand the phrase "Going to the grocery store (or any store for that matter) is a vacation." Yes Carter is only 4 weeks old, but it is such a hassle to take him out of his car seat or put him in the pack or get the stroller out. So if I am with someone and we are going to more than one place, I tend to stay in the car and wait, so much easier!

Lesson number 3, do not for any reason move to a third floor apartment! I should have great arms after our lease is up. Taking a car seat and bags up 3 flights of stairs is not easy. 

Lesson number 4, it is too hot and humid in FL to take Carter out for a walk/run unless you wake up at the crack of dawn. It is also way too hot for for the beach or pool. So I am stuck in doors until he is a little older or it cools off; I think waiting for him to get older will be the one that wins.

Those are just a few things I have learned in the past 4 weeks. I am still in love with this boy and am happy to do all 4 things! 

Especially when he smiles! ❤️
