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!

Phase I: Big Girl Room

We have started the transition from crib to big girl bed by working on Ellie's big girl room. We let her pick out various items and help in decorating her room. We thought it might help her get more excited about moving from the crib into a bed as well as moving into a new room.

Here is her new bed....(she wanted to lay down in it before we had the mattress in place):
 



Here she is with her new comforter set:

Messy transition
 

Somewhat cleaned up:

Happy girl

This was a great idea in theory --- she loves having a SECOND room however is unwilling to give up the crib......

It will soon be time to issue an eviction notice .....

We still have several more finishing touches to put in place but this is the preliminary look -- final pictures soon to come :)
