Eric and I met the “new” old fashioned way, on a dating app. Our first date was March 10, 2018. We went on a couple of dates in March and either the timing wasn’t right or Eric was stubborn because nine months went by without a single date. Fast forward to January 2019 we picked up where we left off. This time we hung out often and when I joined Eric and his family on a trip to Bend in June, it looked like it could get serious. January 4, 2022 Eric proposed at home I was very surprised and of course said “yes” The surprises kept coming when we found out March 6, 2022 we were expecting a baby. Baby boy Meath is due November 10, 2022 just four months before our big day. First baby, first wedding, and a lifetime of firsts together.
