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: Ten


Dear Baby,


This week your dad and I had time off from school and work, and were able to get some things finished in your room. This upcoming week we are going on a trip for the week, and we will get to see how we both do in the hot Las Vegas sun! You are starting to grow (as evidenced by my newfound bump!) more and more each day and soon it will be time to see you at your ultrasound!!! Which is great because we can see you AND it marks the 1/2 way mark of this pregnancy! 1/2 way closer to getting to meet you in person!


Here is what you are up to this week: "Your baby's bulking up, too! He/she now weighs in at a whopping three to five ounces, and he/she's four to five inches in length. His/her tiny muscles, especially the ones in his back, are gaining strength, so he/she can straighten out a little more. And those eyes are finally working, making small side-to-side movements and perceiving light (although the eyelids are still sealed)."


Grow, grow, grow little one....and soon enough we will meet you face to face!

Love you lots,
Mommy and Daddy
