I am married

I am finally married. Everything was going so crazy (mostly weather related) until the morning of the wedding when the bad weather headed north instead to Boston and Philly was warm and sunny. We got to have the ceremony outside just like I really wanted to. The only thing I am bummed about is that as the bride, I missed so much. Did you guys feel that way? I wanted to know how the food was and which people talked with whom. I was so in my own head and I kept facing Mike so much, that the guests didn't really get mnay good pictures of us because we were just paying attention to each other (when not making "rounds"). Here are some pictures people took but I don't have a great one of me and Mike yet.

my update #2

Yeah, my dress zipped up and the other appointments went pretty well. i have 6 more weeks to go. I'll try to post pics of my dress that In found online.

my wedding plannning update

First of all, congrats to Kelli and Amy. How exciting and I am happy for you both. Keep us update on your pregnancies.
I have 49 days left until my wedding, but whose counting;) My work allowed me to take off only ONE day next week, so I am flying in and out on wed to get the marriage license, meet with the photog, dress fitting, and food tasting before flying back to Boston. Things are finally starting to get real. I sent out my invites and the RSVPs have been trickiling in from family. hardly any friends have RSVPed as of yet, so I am anxiously waiting to see if my friends come.
I am trying to just stay level headed the best I can and lose some weight. Turns out that sample dress I bought is not the right size. The part I thought was the waist is supposed to go where the hips are. I have big hips and last I tried, the zipper is no where near closing. So, I guess that will try to let it out and I am trying to get in shape. I'll let you know it it goes on Wed.
Anyway, I hope you are all happy and healthy and I hope we do reschedule because I would love to see your wedding photos (and/or sonograms).

Bob and I are expecting!

Hi Girls.

Sorry for the silence. Bob and I have big news. We're having a baby!!! We're thrilled and surprised it happened so quickly. We're do on October 21, a week after our first anniversary.

The only downside is that I'm suffering through morning sickness. I've barely left the house, but for doctors appointments and the occassional good day when I'm able to escape for a couple of hours of fresh air and a change of scenery. I'm always tired too. Being on the computer is difficult right now, as it can make me nauseous. On top of that, I've had a nasty cold for the past week or so, and it really stinks not being able to take anything to relieve the symptoms. I know all of this is temporary and worth all of the inconvenience.

GET TOGETHER SUNDAY?!!!

Hi girls-

We talked about and all seemed to be available for a GTG this Sunday (2/25)- is anyone/everyone still available and interested? If so, we need to choose a location!

***It appears now that only a few of us are available- let's postpone for now and suggest some new dates for when most of us can get together.

PS. Was forced to create my "new blogger" account to post this... you might also be forced to do that if you want to post.

101 days left

I am getting married in 101 days from today. It's crazy how first the time has past. I am excited, anxious, nervous, and a little scared about everything will "go down" with various family members. However, I am just so glad to be getting married to my FI.
