you look delicious doll. congrats.

Have you guys talked about the M word yet?

Thanks! No. We don't plan to get married anytime soon. I think about having children more than I think about getting married. If we had children together, I would consider it. But I don't have any aspirations about marriage or wedding fantasies. Have never been one of those girls who dreamed of the perfect dress and the perfect wedding. When I got married to my ex when I was 19, it was more for the sake of being impetuous and spontaneous than anything else. So the answer is, it's not on the agenda.

I respect that. Love is love. Marriage doesn't make it stronger or weaker really.

Congrats to both of you!

A word of advise (as if you really need it): Remember just how much you love Rob when he does something 'typically male'....

Just wonderful honey...so happy for you. You just don't realize how grand a true love is until you have it. My advice, which I don't know if you want/or need it..but always nurture it and never get "lazy"...it's a hard pill to swallow but to keep love going it does take work..good things just don't happen. Keeping a good, loving relationship going will be the hardest job you've ever had and yes there will be days when you think.."fuck it"..too hard and along with what Mikey said..never forget what drew you to him in the first place. There will be times when that alone will keep you going. You're gorgeous and so is he. I hope you two make it!

Love's truest tests come when your emtional limitations are stretched by your partner.
You made it three years which is a big thing. A preacher once told me when my wife and I first lived together when we got engaged "If you can live together for at least 2 years without splitting up, then you can make the rest of your life in that relationship work. It just takes patience."
Very true.

You two are adorable.

May I make a personal observation Maria?/

In a word: YUMMMMAAAY!! :-)

My crystal ball sees: really pretty babies... (could be my hormones)

Congrats!

Aaaaw! Thank you guys! Rosemary, I see pretty babies too. I'm pretty damn positive he's the one.

Richard, Yummaay? He'll be flattered! :D

Thanks for all the kind words. I've been through a few very serious long term relationships in my life, but this is most definitely the first time I've ever felt this confident about the permanence and stability of the relationship and mature enough to even know the difference between that and what I've experienced in the past. I appreciate all the good will. It's true what you say, it ain't easy. But it's worth it. ;o)

... and what makes you think I wasn't speaking of you Maria??

;-) You're both "too hot to handle". (however deliciously, sizzingly hot I may find his fine self!!

"... and what makes you think I wasn't speaking of you Maria??"

Let's just call it a hunch! ;o)

Can I just say, that he has the best hair ever? I'll spare you from gushing about all his physical attributes, but what about that hair? It's the best. My favorite is when he wears his wire rim glasses and looks all studious. He'll be a cute old guy.

Love ya Richard!

I just think he's sex on a stick dollface.

Niceajob! :-)

Love ya backatcha M.. !!

isn't fun 'objectifying' men?? lol :}

Gorgeous! Good Luck & Good Love!

Richard! You just made me choke on my cigarette here..you are a RIOT..hahahahahaha..

Knock it off you crazy kids! Put the sauce away! *while I go get mine.*

You guys can start having kids anytime you want.
:) Grandpa

Awwwwwwwwww M!! That's your dad posting up there huh? Isn't approval a grand thing! He rocks huh?

Sandy? I simply adore you. KISS ME! :-)

Yes Richard! That was my daddy. Wow. That made me swoon! What a wonderful dad. (I think he really likes Robert, huh? ;o)

My dad is going to make the greatest grandpa ever! (Listen to me, I'm not even pregnant and I sound like I'm planning on giving birth next week!) Help Rosemary, maternal urges spiraling out of control! Must. Stave. Off. Little. Longer. Hahaaaa.

You want me to tell you about all the interesting things that happen to you when pregnant? Some are awesome (boobs huge, firm and not droopy), others (gas and heartburn)not so much...

I don't look the the Grinch anymore, nope now I look like I swallowed a basketball. Tip, don't wear bikini undies when pregnant - it can be difficult locating the waist/hip band when you have to pee.

Crap, my baby is kicking me now and that is the best feeling in the world. I take back the bad - it's all good.

My little guy turned 7 today. You've seen his cuteness right? Here is his newborn fat baby pic. I love being a mom and I love being pregnant. Sorry, I'm not helping you am I?

No! You're really not! Your son is very adorable. Every time Rob and I see his goddaughter, we are both overcome by the same feeling of wanting a little girl or boy of our own. We just look at eachother wistfully, and then we eventually regain our senses. We have agreed to wait awhile.

I'm looking forward to having those boobs though! Other than that, I imagine I will be popping with vericose veins, crippled with backpain and big as a house. Hahaa! Hopefully, that's just fear talkin.
