Three Months!!!

Well, it's been a while. We've had some fun lately. Last Saturday we went to Lagoon with our friends Emily and Kyle. It was really fun. They have this great roller coaster called wicked. You seat in a row of four, you shoot straight up at a high speed, go over a hill and do a straight vertical down. It was fun. I am sad to report that I did get sick this time at the amusement park. I've never gotten motion sickness in my life, but I did this time. I think it was due to my UTI, yes, another one, that had been making me sick all week. It was still fun though. We love to do things with Emily and Kyle. Emily is my old roommate and Kyle is Eli's old roommate. It's funny because when Emily moved in, I told her that she should date Kyle, and she started dating him then she told me that I should date Eli. I guess we're really good at picking out husbands for each other. This week has gone by quickly. The best things of the week were hanging out with Cindy, Kurt, and A.J. last night, going to enrichment and making cute stuff with Karen, and Eli breaking the couch. Yes, he broke our couch. He stood up to jump and pretend body-slam me, he's not immature I promise, and as he was about to lift off, we heard a big crack. The wood frame cracked in the middle. Now it sags. It was really funny though because he got a really hilarious look on his face. But, even though we will probably have this couch for years to come, it's better now and more comfortable. The cushions always would slide out from under you and it was pretty uncomfortable to lay on, but now that it sags a bit, the cushion sits differently and doesn't fall out from under you. So, although he broke it, he also fixed it!
I had to go to a urologist, but all they did was tell me that if I got another UTI to come back to them instead of the health center. I don't know why I keep getting them. I do everything I'm supposed to in order to prevent them. It sucks though because they make me feel nauseus and exhausted. I missed a lot of class this week because of the tiredness.
Last night I was at Cindy's. We watched a good movie, Dragonfly, I did laundry, and we played with A.J. Also while I was there I cleaned out and washed the car and went to wal-mart. We've been really busy these past few weeks and I have gotten out of the habit of meal planning and not stocking up on staple items. So it was good to get all of that taken care of.
Today is our three month wedding anniversary. I know some of you who have been married for longer may scoff at a mere three months, but I'm excited. It feels like it's been a lot longer, but it's great. I really like being married. It's fun to have someone there all the time who's your best friend. It's great to have our little jokes and things that only we would laugh at. I just love it. Eli's really good at helping to keep the house clean and letting me knowhe appreciates me. It's so much fun. Friday nights are always really fun because I'll pick up Eli when he gets off work, we'll come home and eat something and then we'll watch The Office on the laptop in bed and it's just so relaxing. Marriage is great! I just feel bad sometimes that Cindy's the only one in the family who actually knows Eli. You'll all get a chance I guess. Tonight we're going to go to dinner and a movie. I think we'll eat at Red Robin and probably see Wall E. at the dollar theater. We have a gift certificate to Red Robin. Anyway, I really like being married. It's better for my health, wealth, and academic success.
That's all!

Maybe it's not better for your health since you keep getting sick! (jk) it suits you well! We love Eli and we are the lucky ones who get to know him. You are all missing out. He's always happy and smiling and fun to be around. We can see why Cherie married him.
P.s. I think Cherie isn't telling the real story how they broke the couch, but that's just my hunch! LOL

That's the first thing I thought was what Cindy said. When I knew you in High school no UTIs now look...
Also agree with the thought on the couch from the last entry about the razz berries or whatever...

Try soap and water, it just may help prevent the UTI's....Maybe not...What can I say, I am a comic genius.....Actually, Cindy said what I was a thinkin---so I had to improvise... Have fun & don't break any mo' furniture!

I believed you about the couch since you already told me about it. Sometimes husbands like to pretend they are being tough wrestlers..Roland is always roughhousing with Milo, and I'm afraid someday soon, stuff will be broken..Boys will be boys! Congrats on making it to three months! Before you know it, it will be a year, then you'll lose count!

Hey Cherie! I was looking at Alaina's blog and saw that you had one so I hope you dont mind me popping in! Congratulations on getting married, you 2 look adorable!

Guys, if that was really how the couch was broken do you think I would put it on there? Nope, I would tell you each privately over the phone. Really, Eli is like a giant little boy (seen the movie Jack, anyone?) and he jumped on the couch and broke it. I swear, by the moon and stars in the sky!

I would definitely recommend WallE. I loved it! I'm so glad you guys have a blog! You are so cute together, I'm glad that you are having a wonderful time being married. We miss you guys.

I learned the other day that it can seem like you are getting repeated urinary tract infections because the E. coli hide out in your bladder wall cells. Then, after they've taken control, they burst out, wreak havoc, and go into some other cells. Also, some of them don't divide properly so you get really long cells that your white blood cells can't dispose of properly. The best cure is consistent antibiotics for a long period of time (or however long your doctor says).
