I had been thinking for a while that I wanted to start a blog, but I never got around to it. When I read about little Madison yesterday, I decided that I wanted to start one now... I want to remember each little detail- the good and the bad- and share that with all of our family and friends.
Now for some background info...
Let's start with Jr and I...
We met in 2006, and knew right away that we would be together. By the end of the summer, we were inseparable. While I finished my senior year of high school, Jr moved from California to Colorado to work in the oil field. As soon as I graduated, I followed.
After a really rough year, of moving back and forth to California, and many ups and downs, we realized that we wanted to be with each other forever, and I moved to Colorado for good.
Two months later, we found out that we were expecting!
Seven months later, we welcomed Jr's daughter, Kaiylnn Emerie, to our family. (That is a story for another post).
Another two months later... and we welcomed our son, Devin Daniel, to our little family.
We were so happy. I never knew how much I could love someone, until I met my little boy. Fast forward a year and a half, through diapers and teething, court battles and child support...We're expecting again! We were ecstatic! We were both hoping that this child would be a girl... I had no complications with my pregnancy, but had almost every symptom in the book, which made those 9 months the longest of my life. At the end, I was counting down the days until I would meet my precious child.

Leilah Elizabeth was born... 6lbs 5 oz and 18 3/4 inches long. And our family was complete... At least for now!!
I know that this is a bit of a long post, but that really is the short version of our lives together! I'll fill more in as more back stories become important!
