This weekend we had Justin's parents over, and had this amazing plan for a fun filled weekend. We were going to meet his parents at Babies R Us after class on Friday to shop around ~ because I love buying baby stuff. We headed over there and just as we arrived Justin and I got into this WORLD class fight ~ classy..real classy. See, because I am pregnant (which Justin asserts he at times forgets - even supposedly on the day we are going to BABIES R US), I have to eat every 3-4 hours to avoid puking all over myself and those around me. My appetite has been minimal, so each time I eat I don't eat much just enough to tide me over. We arrived near the Babies R us and it had been 3 1/2 hours since lunch, I didn't know when I'd eat next, and we were going to be walking around a public place (hence I was attempting to avoid a "scene" if you will).
Justin informs me that due to my needing to eat we will have to speed up our time at Babies R us because now we will be in rush hour traffic. Mind you we agreed to meet at babies R us at 330 pm -- rush hour usually begins at 430 ish -- so apparently we were going to be in and out of Babies R us in 45 minutes or less. So I gathered up my barely eaten food, disposed of it in the garbage and walked out. I came back into Target (where we met his parents) demanded the keys from him and went to wait in the car. I politely :) sent him a text informing him that he could get a ride home with his parents ----- Soooooo there was no babies R us. That was the start of the weekend......
FORTUNATELY it was all uphill from there, how could it not be! After he got home and we both cooled off (mostly me!) we moved on and had a really good time. We went to the mall, out to eat, rented a movie, and spent the rest of the night (until 2 AM!!) talking and laughing. Jace (Justin's little brother) and I played the Wii which is awesome because he's the only one who will play with me. The next day we woke up and went out for breakfast, went to Target ("It's a match!"), Sams club and headed home for a little more visiting before they had to head out.
It's funny to look at our fights, because they are usually really pointless. As Justin said in his previous blog, there was a time we really didn't get along. Now we rarely have a fight, although I'm sure his parents NOW have their doubts! We disagree, but rarely rarely fight. When we do fight it's all over in an hour whereas before days/weeks would pass before we could move on. Justin and I both have very strong personalities and that we get along this well is only a testimony to our Heavenly father and the love he has placed in our hearts for one another. No one can make me as angry as Justin can (and vice versa) but I love no one as much as I love him.
And in the end I always know it was never my fault, and that really helps me keep it all in perspective!
