Off Topic- But had to share

[Tiffykins 673]

For those not on my Facebook, I just had to share ! ! !

We closed on our first home today. It was a very exhaustive, emotional time for us, but we did it ! ! !

When we first married, I weighed around 270lbs, more than 100lbs heavier than my lovely husband. Today, he officially carried me over the threshold. He has carried me around the house several times, body slammed me while wrestling since VSG, but today, he actually carried me over OUR threshold.

AND, I'm 7.5 months pregnant, weighing about 23-24lbs heavier than my maintenance weight (all gained in the pregnancy) even though apparently you can't tell from this picture, I'm super pregnant ha ha ha! ! !

This was such an amazing day. If anyone would have told me 2 years ago that we'd be here today, I would call them a liar. I was still in recovery mode from my horrible complications after my band to VSG revision, my husband was deployed to the shithole, most call, Afghanistan, and I really wasn't sure how we'd make it through the rest of the year.

Today, 2 years later, I'm thriving in a pregnancy, STILL WEIGH LESS than him, and just purchased our first home! ! ! That's all pretty phenomenal if I do say so myself!

AND, NO, he didn't pop a hernia, he was trying to make sure he didn't whack me into the door, and his foot slipped on the tile (plus he had been moving boxes for about 4 hours at this point) ! ! !
