Wedded Wednesday--We Are Family


Wedded Wednesday is a collaboration
of married bloggers sharing their inspirations,

anecdotes, struggles and thoughts regarding
the amazing union of two separate people, as one.
There has been a lot of we in "family" lately. This past weekend my step-daughter graduated from high school. Needless to say there were a whole bunch of relates in the house. I come from a small family, my husband does not. Even though we have been together several years, all those people still sometimes still overwhelm me. As I looked around the room, I realize this is my family now. When I married Mr. J, I not only obtained the title of wife, but also of daughter-in-law, aunt, great-aunt, etc. I kinda like the new titles and am trying to fit into each of them. Each large family function, I get more comfortable. More comfortable I get, the happier Mr. J is. In a family we may not always be able to choose who our family is, but I am so happy that Mr. J chose me to be apart of his.

It would be shabby chic . 6.   If I could wake up anywhere tomorrow morning it would be        on a porch on a beach house listening to the waves roll in and the feeling the sun rise on my face . 7.   The longest sleep I've ever had was    I a...

Size of Baby: Baby J is about the length of a cucumber. Baby J is still the same size as last week. Maternity Clothes: Trying to mix it up some with different tops. I feel most comfortable with tank tops ( or AKA wife beaters) and cardigans. I have found some really cute ones at Old Navy. Gender:  Still not telling.  Movement: Lots and lots of movement. Sometimes it feels kinda weird. Baby J is moving alot more than last week and more often when I am working at my desk at w ork . Sleep: Getting more energy back, but some days I really just want to sleep.
