One year ago today!

I have seen someone else blog about this topic and thought it was so clever I wanted to blog about it myself!

One year ago today I was feeling extremely nauseous, moody, headache y, excited and nervous all in one as I sit in the waiting area with my friend Sarah waiting for the results to come back telling me that I was going to be a mommy. As I sit down with my husband at lunch to tell him he was going to be a father, and as we call our parents and tell them they are going to be grandparents for the first time!

This time last year we had no idea what we were getting ourselves into but knew we were getting ready for the ride of our lives!!!


Tomorrow our baby girl will be 4 months old and thinking back a year ago I never thought life would be this good! We watch her grow and learn everyday and thank the Lord above for trusting us with his precious package!

Join the Club!

My husband Rocky has now joined the blogging club. For those of you interested in reading, I will advise you to keep an open mind and use your thinking cap to understand his sense of humor. He is very vague but very entertaining!!! Enjoy!!! You gotta love him...or at least I do!

Lifetime friends!

Our dear friends Joe, Kim, and Reagan are now enjoying their new home at Fort Lewis, Washington(just outside Seattle). This is one thing about military life that I do not enjoy.
When we moved here I was so excited about meeting new people and making life time friends but as our friends are slowly moving away I start to wonder if my heart can handle it! I did not realize how sad it would be to leave friends that we have come to love so much. Kim has been an inspiration to me as a mommy. She walked me through so many questions I had about birth, breastfeeding, and motherhood. She has been an amazing example to me and I pray that I am the same mother to Laney that she is to Reagan.

Joe has been a great example to Rocky as he sees what it is like to be a military father to a beautiful daughter! There are many times that Rocky and I talk about how wonderful of a father he is to little Reagan!And then there is little Reagan! We have seen her grow up so much in the time that they have been here! She is an absolute doll and loves Laney so much! Kim always tells me that she asks about her and wants to constantly be around her! When we are with them Reagan is so gentle with Laney and just likes holding her hand. She gives sweet sweet kisses and just loves on Laney! She is going to be a wonderful big sister some day!We will miss them and look forward to a reunion soon!!!

Coming soon: Laney laughing video, my birthday presents, and working out! Stay tuned!!!
