Celebrating One Glorious Year! (and Lou-lu update)



Who knew that a year could fly by so fast and be so wonderful?! Steve and I celebrated our one year anniversary this past weekend!! We had a wonderful dinner outside under the trees at WA Frost and enjoyed one last evening to ourselves before our life gets even busier with the arrival of little Lou-lu. Honestly, this has been the best year of my life...and I owe it all to the wonderful new family Alix,Steve, Lou-lu and I have created together. I feel so truly blessed and I don't think any words I could write could accurately portray my emotions as I think back over the past year and look forward to the next one...two...three...hundred!! Thank you Steve for being my best friend, my partner, my lover, my confidant... my everything!

Lou-lu update: Not much to update...week 39 is upon us and I have made a list of things to do everyday to keep myself busy. Today I've walked 3 miles, am going to the grocery store, and Alix and I are making glove animals that we saw on Martha Stewart. I'll have to post our crafty results...should be quite a sight since Alix and I are not at all crafty!! Lou-lu shows no signs of wanting to come out early...and although it was nice of her/him to wait and let Steve and I celebrate our first anniversary together (and alone)...and I guess I'll live through 8 more days (at most)...it sure would be nice if s/he decided to surprise me and prove me wrong--if s/he has any Bellus in her/him then a challenge may be all it takes to get some action ;)
