I started this series a long time ago with the intention of sharing some things about me you might now know, then got busy posting other things and haven’t shared any since! so in honor of v-day, sharing 5 things about blake and me!
1
we got engaged while watching game of thrones ;). we had a spa day then ate pizza on the couch in our pajamas…7 years later and that is still my version of a perfect day.
2
we have seriously considered bb being an only child. every time the idea of a second child comes up, we both have the same hesitation. things feel so perfect and easy with just bb, and we are scared to throw that off with a second. but we both love our siblings and cannot imagine growing up as an only child. although bb seems to have fully embraced her only-child status thus far. before I get frantic texts from both sets of grandparents, I also can’t imagine only doing this once. I miss being pregnant, giving birth, the newborn phase (I actually loved that phase), and I will really miss this toddler phase (my brain has already started blacking out those terrible toddler moments) too.
3
we did long distance for 3 years. once in college for 4 months while I studied abroad in Barcelona. and then for the 3 years I was in law school.
4
we have traveled to 10 countries together and LOVE any excuse to travel. here they are: france, italy, germany, belgium, the netherlands, cambodia, thailand, mexico, canada. I just asked blake and we are in agreement that our favorite of the bunch is and always will be France. we could go there bazillions of times. but a very close second is Thailand.
5
we are homebodies and actually have the opposite of fomo, jomo (joy of missing out). we love food, and can usually get ourselves out of the house when the prospect of yummy food is on the other end. but strictly “going out” has never been our thing.
