The Day that changed our lives forever...

February 2, 2011 @ 5:39, Our lives changed forever. We welcomed a healthy 8lb 5oz, 20in Baby Boy into the world. We are so lucky to be the proud parents of Colt Alan. He is such a happy & fun loving boy. He can make the worst day better. He is so ahead of his time. He is always trying to go somewhere & gets nowhere fast. :) Bevo (our dog) watches over him & anytime he cries he is always right there to make sure he is ok. I think Colt is the spitting image of his father. & what a handsome pair they are. I love my little family & cant wait to see what the years bring us.

Jenelle's Visit


2 weeks after my baby shower my sister flew up from Ventura, CA to help get the babies room ready & get some stuff that we would need. She got in Friday afternoon & we got the room all set up (except the baby crib). On Saturday we took the ferry to Seattle & her friend Jonah & her bf showed us around. They took us to an amazing all you can eat Brunch @ Salty's in Alki beach. Then we went over to the Pike Place Market...It was amazing. So many little shops & lots of seafood. We went to the very 1st Starbucks store & then over to the Seattle Space Needle/Seattle Center. They have rides & an arcade, Music center & arenas for concerts. We didnt go up the Space Needle BUT I am ok with that. We had an amazing weekend & I am so glad that she could come out. love her :)

Time is slowing down...

It feels like the first few months went by super fast. All of a sudden I was 25 weeks BUT now I feel like time is slowly passing. Now I am 27 weeks & feel like the last 2 weeks have taken forever. Idk if its just because I am not doing as much or I just want him to be here already. I think my impatientness is getting to me. I can't wait to get the Labor over with, Hold him in my arms & see what our beautiful baby boy will look like. He is so active and likes to play in my belly. Its especially hard because a couple of my friends have 3 month old babies & all I do is want to hold them when i am around them. So its bitter sweet to be holding some1 else's baby while I am impatiently waiting for mine to get here. I am just really excited for my 1st baby & am tired of waiting for him to be here. :)

Baby Shower 10.02.10


I went down to SD for my Baby Shower. It was such an amazing day. My Sister & Alli did so much for me. They were great party planners. & I stayed w/ my big little brother. :)

I am so thankful for everyone that came. It was great seeing all my friends who I havent seen since we left in June. :) We played Guess that baby food & Dirty Diaper. It was so funny. :) I had a great time & am so lucky to have so many amazing friends! Love you guys.

It's a Boy!!

September 7th we found out that we are having a boy!! They tell you to drink 8 glasses of water in 2 hours & no bathroom breaks after the 1st hour...bloated bladder much!! It was the most uncomfortable feeling ever. I felt like my bladder was going to explode. Anyways...We finally go back the technician puts the ultra sound stick on my belly & before she can even look up John's saying "It's a boy!!" lol. I could barely see the screen & the lady shows us the non-arguable evidence. ;) John said that he was pulling a Micheal Jackson with 1 hand on his junk & 1 hand inthe air. Lol. That's my little man, he gets it from his momma. She then went through and measured his head, abdomen, femur & then his whole body. He weighed 10 oz. We then text'd all our friends and called our family. Everyone was so excited to finally know what we were having & they were ready to start spoiling our little boy!!
Even more spoiled then his mom. WTH!!

First Sight...

On July 12th, 2010 we saw our baby for the 1st time it was amazing!!
It was like a little alien in my belly...I was 11 weeks!Seeing you baby is like nothing you have ever experienced before! So many things go through your head...What will they be, what will they look like, will I be a good parent...& most of all you will think about how you want to spoil the crap out of them. John was really excited. You could hear the beat & the baby even did a dance for us. It was so cute. I can't wait to see what else happens with this baby!!
