Has anything in your relationship with H changed since we all be married for over a year now?

I will say yes in a good way though. I mean H and I seem closer and we seem to have a little bit better communication since big decisions have to be made together more now than ever.

Not really. We had a strong relationship before we got married and I would only say that it's stronger. We've also gotten more serious about our plans for the future.

I am going to be the first one to say that its not all a bed of roses. We been together for 7 years and I think we are hitting the 7 year itch, I mean nothing like the thought of breaking up or anything. Just everything he does is seemly annoying lately, he seems to gotten really lazy where he use to be on top of everything. I just feel alot of our life is put on my shoulders while he has no worries. Im sure its just a slump. I still love the crap out of him, even the annoying parts.

Yes. We can through a legal battle with worker's comp, a surgery,  10 months of unemployment,  total gut and remodel of a house and an infertility diagnosis that banged up our sex life. But we're stonger for it and are much better communicators because of it. My Gram always said marriage is like a garden, it needs tending or it will be nothing but weeds.

The past almost two years have been very trying. We're definitely in a good spot now but it was a rough transition from a couple to a family of three. There were definitely nights when the baby was a little itty bitty where I wanted to punch H in the eyeball because we were all operating on 2 hours of sleep LOL but it's all ups and downs and I wouldn't want to do this with anyone else. We're stronger now than we ever have been.

I'm laughing really hard because after Ethan was born I had many sleepless nights he came close to getting punched. However once LO hit 2 months it got much better and I felt better.

Oh, I definitely get where you're coming from here. There are days/weeks where I feel like I constantly want to ring H's neck and it's usually because he's being annoying and/or lazy. But for better or worse, right?

I think H and I are doing very well. We've had our fair share of disagreements and problems, but we are always able to talk things through. He most recently just had what I've dubbed his "mid-20's crisis" where he decided he didn't want to be a contractor/work for himself anymore, but had no idea what he wanted to do. He was unemployed (though if you ask him, he was still self-employed, just not taking on projects) for 3 months. That was really stressful, but we've made it through, and he's finally started a new job, and what will most likely be his "career". I can't imagine life without him, even in the moments that I want to wring his neck, and since i've been pregnant, there seem to be more and more of those (i'm not weepy emotional, but i'm VERY irritable).

We have been mostly great. There have been a few bumps but we are able to work everything out quickly. He is my rock and I never let myself forget that even when I want to throttle him (usually for no reason at all).
