Hello World :)

This is my first time doing a blog so please bear with me. My name is Maddie and I wanted to create a blog where I could write down all my thoughts and feelings, especially those feelings that deal with the journey my husband and I are taking to start a family. First a little about us. 

I am 24 and fresh out of college (oh wow maybe not so fresh out, more like 3 years out)! I got my degree in Finance and immediately starting working in Accounts Payable at a big corporate company in Dublin, Ohio. I had been working there for 2 years when my dad offered me a position at his company. He owns a construction company out of his home and needed someone to do all of this office work. I jumped at the position with no hesitation. I have been working here for 2 months now and could not be happier! 

I met my husband, Marcus (also 24), in college about 7 years ago. We were friends until he finally had the balls to ask me out our Junior year! We added a yellow lab named Brutus to our little family! We got engaged the summer after we graduated and bought a house a couple months after that. We gutted the whole house out and started from scratch. It was a fun/stressful time in our lives. We got married on September 17, 2011. 

Now we are happily married and approaching our 1 year anniversary. We have always talked about having children and now we are finally ready to put our plans in action. Trying to conceive has already given us heartache (will explain further in a separate post), but we are moving forward and eager to start our family! :)
