One Year Ago...



One year ago today...our lives changed forever.  We found out we would be expecting our first child!  I can still remember the absolute JOY we felt when the stick confirmed it.  One little stick...one little word...and our life from that day forward took on a whole new meaning!


I still can't believe how quickly this year has gone...how much change we've been through.  I'm a mom now...and Ryan's a dad...the best dad!  And we have a happy, healthy...precious baby boy.  My heart is so full and we feel so very blessed.


One year ago, we found out we would be parents.  I dreamed of today, where I would be holding my son in my arms.  And now he's here, all ours to keep.  It's amazing what can happen in one year, isn't it?

  2. it's almost been a year, your a little ahead of me :) But I totally understand how you feel. It feels like yesterday I told Adam & he had the biggest smile on his face & gave me the longest hug of all time. Then the whole pregnancy seemed to last forever & now that I look back it went by so fast!! It's actually to the point where I can't wait to have another baby :) the experience was just completely amazing. The little smiles you get just melt your heart. This is truly what life is ALL about :) FAMILY!! :)

  15. This is such a sweet post and awesome photos! Congrats (and kudos to you for remembering the dates).

    Both times I found out wasn't exactly joy ... I kind of had a feeling with both times, but I think I was in shock / didn't believe it both times. I took a test several times for each!
