About Me

This is a blog created to record our family's roller coaster ride of a life. In this blog you will read about everyday life with us. You will learn that Lilly loves cheer and Trev is ALL BOY! We are quite the busy family. Besides Lilly's cheer practice that goes on 4 times a week (3 hours each day) we also take Master T to 2 soccer practices a week & one soccer game each weekend. How do we find time to throw the parties & get togethers that we have each month, or do homework, or clean the house, or grocery shop, or just spend time together, you may ask. Skill, people. It is a balancing act.

Today is a special day



Today is the day that I went into labor with Trevor 4 years ago. It was a full moon!!! Oh yeah, thank you full moon. It is such a special day for me. 4 years ago when I went into labor it was the promise of a new born baby boy coming into our family. Childbirth is probably the most exciting thing that I have ever experienced!!! Getting pregnant is almost as exciting to me but to know that my child is ready to meet me and look into my eyes...let's just say it is powerful. And the work that it takes to bring a child into the world is very empowering. It really gives a woman a huge sense of confidence. If I can conquer child birth then I can do almost anything. This is why today is a special day just for me.



And a special thanks to Trevor for being very unique and giving me a unique birth experience. It has taken me 4 years to appreciate that unique birth experience, but I am finally there. And a very special thank you to my husband Neal for being such a great partner during labor and delivery. If it wasn't for Neal, I would have probably been too frightened to accomplish my goal of natural childbirth. And I have to mention my wonderful midwife. She made my birth experience a positive one. And last but not least, the biggest thank you to Heavenly Father, who has given me the opportunity to create life with my husband.
