There's nothing quite like seeing the guy you had to sneak around to date, the guy you fell completely in love with the moment your eyes met, the guy who once had an emo haircut and drove around an old geo with an incredibly loud muffler, the guy who texted you every morning and night and called you every day, and the guy that makes you happier than life, become a father. The last two years I met a side of Rory I didn't know. The side that chased a laughing Logan around the house, the side who woke up in the middle of the night and changed diapers because I was too tired from breastfeeding them all night, the side who kissed owwies better and gave piggy back ride, the side that encouraged me to keep going through two very hard, medicine free labors, the side with so much love to give. He has been such an amazing father to my babies, it is something that means so much to me. I hope our babies know one day how lucky they truly are to have him. He amazes me with his patience and love towards our two sweet kids. He is the best dad out there and I could not ask for anything more of him. I love you Rory,  Happy Fathers Day!


Blaire is almost six weeks! What the! Where did the time go? Call me crazy, but I think she is also cutting teeth! Logan got his first two when he hit 12 weeks, but I am pretty sure she is getting hers now. She is such a sweet girl. She has been dealing with thrush the last four weeks which is pretty painful for both of us, but she has been such a trooper. She has such a beautiful smile and gorgeous blue eyes with the perfect mixture of red and brown hair. I just love our little girl. She is such a blessing.

Logan has been the best little buddy! He loves his sister! So much, that he never lets her sleep :) He loves holding her and kissing her. He is also such  a great helper. Since having Blaire, he has also grown up so much! He talks in sentences and it is just so weird! He is always asking, Where did daddy go Or mommy or grampa. He loves the Iphone as well. He no longer sleeps with us, which is sorta bitter sweet. I miss my cuddles! He recognizes where we are when we are driving. The moment we enter my moms neighborhood, he yells "Home!!!!" It is the sweetest thing. He loves going on bike rides with dad and he loves riding on the lawn mower with grampa!


I have entered my fourth week of working out 5 days a week, let me tell you the results are amazing! I am almost 6 weeks postpartum and no one would ever tell. I am 2 pounds away from 115 and fit into all of my clothes. I wont post the before picture, but I will of a recent one. My abs are coming through. I dont want a full six pack, but some nice toning. I am so excited and I have grown to love working out. It has become a part of my life style. It isnt a option, but something that just belongs in my day, three times a day. Some days are hard and I have to remind my self that it gets me closer to getting the results I want, and as soon as I finish a work out it is an immediate sense of accomplishment.


Rory turns 24 on monday. So crazy! He loves his job being an electricians apprentice. Life is just very amazing.

Logan turned 2!

Logan, You are growing up right before our eyes. You have given us so much happiness and you teach us so much. You are very polite and you always say thank you and please. You hate haircuts and scream the whole time :) you can CPU t very well to ten with the exception of a few numbers. You can tell us the sound of the letters and colors and shapes. Your hair is blonde and don't believe daddy if he tells you the mailman is your dad :) you have dark brown eyes and eyelashes to die for! Very long and thick. You talk up a storm and it is the cutest thing ever. You do the coolest tricks! You love when daddy takes you on bike rides and you got a new bike for your birthday. You are such a great brother an always comfort sister when she cries. You are out buddy and we love you so much. You are the coolest kid around. I remember first looking into your eyes and falling so deeply in love with you. I remember daddy not wanting to put you down and us staring at you for hours. You stole our hearts and became our wold the moment we saw you. It feels like you have always been apart of our family. We couldn't be happier. These have been the most amazing two years ever and I am so excited to watch you grow, just don't grow too fast. We love watching you learn and discover. You are the best buddy anyone can ask for. We love you so much Logan! Happy birthday!
