Our double Anniversary

Today is a very special day for us for two reasons. Today is our 7 year anniversary and it's also been 2 years since we found out I was pregnant! 

7 years, wow. It feels like only yesterday when we started talking over myspace but at the same time it feels like I've been with him forever. I can't really remember what life was like before we were together and I don't want to. I remember our first kiss and I instantly knew there was something special there and I was right. I'm not a sappy, cheesy person but that's the truth. 

An anniversary is always a special date but 2 years ago it was made even more special because we found out I was expecting. We had decided to start trying for a baby at the January 2013 and we didn't think it would happen so quickly. I knew I was pregnant before I even tested as I felt different straight away. My body felt different, I was exhausted and so crazily emotional. 

I had been testing every morning for a couple of days and although the tests where negative I still had faith and trusted my instinct. The morning of our 5 year anniversary I saw that red line appear! I was pregnant! I remember crying with happiness and I actually danced around my front room. I then had to wait for Nick to come home from work to tell him the news and my stomach was doing flips all day. I remember when he walked through the door I just had the biggest smile on my face, I showed him the pregnancy test and squealed "Happy Anniversary!"

I feel so happy and nostalgic today. I love my little family. 

A double Anniversary

Today is not just a special day for not one reason but two! Today is the anniversary of two of the most important events in my life.. 

Today is mine and Nick's 6 year anniversary, we have been together for 6 years! On one hand it feels like only yesterday when we were chatting all night over MSN and arranging to meet up. And on the other it feels like I have known him forever and can't remember life without him. 

Nick and I met through mutual friends. We had seen each other out and about vaguely a few times. He was so shy and was even nervous about friend requesting me on myspace. He finally added me and we begun talking and well what do you know, we ended up hitting it off. 

The next thing I type will sound really daft, very dramatic and extremely cheesy but it's the truth. The night we first kissed I felt something, like something clicking into place. I knew that we would be together for the long haul and that it was meant to be. I don't know why and I'm not the most romantic or overly affectionate person but that is how I felt at that moment in time and ever since. I can't even put it into words but I knew we were going to be something special. I was right cause here I am typing this 6 years later with our baby in our arms and about to buy our very first home together. 

Not only is it our anniversary but it is also exactly 1 year ago that I found out I was pregnant! That's right, we got our positive pregnancy test on our anniversary after just 1 month of trying to conceive. It was meant to be. I will never forget the moment I found out and saw that little red line appearing. I had never felt happiness like it, not until Noah was born. 

I am going to spend the whole day appreciating what we have as I am so lucky. Not only do I have Nick in my life but now I have Noah too.
