Baby #3 is A….

BOY!!!

We are so incredibly grateful and excited to meet our little guy in February! River says she can’t wait to hold him, kiss him and snuggle him.  I think that parks can sense that something is going on but he is still a little clueless. After losing the three babies between River and Parks I wasn’t sure that I would be blessed with anymore little ones of my own, when we got pregnant with parks we were so grateful for him and for our time with River. She sat in the baby seat for just under 4 years, I am de-throning parks before he turns two! I hope that he adjusts well and I know that it may be a bit of a struggle at first but I think and hope that as they grow up together they’ll be great friends! this new little man was a pleasant surprise and we couldn’t be more grateful to have him growing and getting ready to make his big appearance into the world! Thank you all for your love and your support, I really appreciate each and every one of you!

Happy Valentines Day!!

As Promised I wanted to get on here and first introduce everyone to my sweet husband Cody and share our love story with all of you! It was so fun and scary/awkward to sit and film this for you guys, all of our happy/funny memories came flooding back and I felt like a silly teen trying to keep it cool in front of my super attractive date! The video is a little bit long and actually would have been longer but I cut quite a bit out, as we were talking each of us kept having lightbulb moments and remembering random things and feelings on certain dates and or times together throughout our dating relationship. We trimmed it down or it would have been an hour long!

I just love Cody with all my heart and am so grateful he chose to spend his life with me. Our babies are so lucky to call him dad, I couldn’t think of a more tender hearted “tough guy” for my daughter river to look up to and ask everyday “dad when I grow up will you marry me?” nor could Parks have gotten any luckier in the dad/best friend/great example department! I am so proud of him and the man that he is, we have been together for almost 10 years now and it is crazy to say that I love him a million times more than I could have ever imagined as a heart eyed teen years ago when I thought I knew what love was. We have moved around from state to state raising our family together and have been crazy happy doing it. Has life thrown curve balls our way? absolutely! Have some of those “curve balls” been hard to handle and deal with? Sure, but our love and respect for one another has always stayed constant. We grow in our times of weakness and when life is hard, not when everything is smooth sailing, I can’t imagine going through life’s up and downs with anyone else!

 I hope you all enjoy this cute video we put together and the pictures I was able to scrounge together! The first photo was taken the weekend we met up in mccall!
