About Me

Welcome to our blog!! This is a blog about our life, mostly from Jennifer's perspective. We were married in July 2007 at the Wynn Resort in Las Vegas and then sealed together for eternity in the Albuquerque New Mexico Temple in June 2009. We welcomed Ms. Ellie Sophia into our lives on February 9, 2010 and she is absolutely the light of our lives. Then we added Silas Ian on January 4, 2013 and his smile just brightens our days. We live in Rio Rancho, New Mexico where Justin works as a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner and I pursue my PhD in Nursing while being a stay at home mom! Life is so chaotic but we really couldn't ask for a more perfect life!

Dear baby: Part iv


Dear baby,

Hope you had fun on your first trip - you were a real trooper and travelled quite well!! Hope you enjoyed the Jonas Brothers :)


Tomorrow we go for your first ultrasound, which means it is the FIRST time we get to see you!!! We are both super excited and can't wait for 4:00 pm to roll around fast enough! This is going to be the best day of our lives so far (until you are actually here with us, of course!) and we can't wait to see you and maybe hear your heart!


The website says: Your baby is now the size of a green olive and has grown about an inch since last week. Tiny muscles are beginning to form, so while he might not be ready to pump iron, he's gearing up to move his arms and legs. It's still too soon to feel anything in your belly, but you might be able to hear something at your next checkup. Try listening for your baby's heartbeat via a Doppler device — that welcome sound should be audible anytime now.

Which all means that we might get to see you moving around a bit!!


I was a little upset with you regarding the morning sickness business, as this week has been a real struggle, however after thinking about getting to see you for the first time I am willing to forgive and move forward!!


Love you much,

Mom and dad
