both my sweeties are napping....
So time for me to get some stuff done right?
Today our little girl is 6 months old. Everything has been flying through my head all day. How excited we were getting to the hospital, how freaked out I was when my water broke, how painful the contractions were, how sweet my husband was being to me, how scared I was going into the operating room, how perfect her first cry was, our first "silent conversation through eye contact" as parents, the first hour being parents... So many wonderful memories in a day...
every single day since then has been even more filled with coo-ing, giggles, jibber-jabber, smiles, hugs, naps, playtime, and it just keeps getting better.
Today Elayna woke up sick, coughing, not wanting anything, and not being happy with nothing. We think she's cutting teeth right now, but we'll see. Even though she hasnt been feeling well, I'm so thankful to be able to take a sick day and be with her all day on her 6 month birthday. I'm such a blessed wife and mommy!
Here are a few pictures of Elayna on her 6 Months!
LOL!!! I just realized I had her wearing a "My 1st Valentine's Day" Bib... hey... it was free. :) Thank goodness for wonderful family and "hand-me-downs". :) We are blessed!!!!

Squeaky Clean!
There are always milestones in a relationship...
Becoming official boyfriend/girlfriend, first kiss,
the proposal, wedding day, moving into your first place,
finding out your pregnant, having a child, etc...
Our family had a milestone this month.
Michael decided to take the missionary discussions,
and was baptized into the church.
What an amazing day it was!
I am so thankful for a husband who is willing to change
for the better of our family.
He is such an example to me, and to our daughter.
I am so in love with you Michael, and I can't wait to be sealed to you.
Me, Michael, Elayna, E. Spurlin, E. Booher, & E. Kane

A year or so later...
Well... What a year it has been! Michael and I found out late June 2010 that we were expecting a baby.
Pregnancy, holidays, moving, ETC.
We sold and packed up everything we had, ready to move across the country to Chicago, IL. (Where Michael's family is from) All the job leads Michael had fell through, which helped us both realize Chicago just wasn't for us. Michael came back to St George a month before we had our sweet baby girl.
Elayna Moiraine Vera was born March 9th, 2011. Our birthplan was to tough it out and go all natural. Boy were we wrong! After 17 1/2 hours laboring, (12 of which were unmedicated) the Dr told us we were headed for cesarean. Elayna was 7lb 15oz and 21 3/4 inches long. We are so blessed and happy with her!
Everyday with her is the best day of my life! Her giggles, snuggles and smiles keep me going. She's almost 6 months and is sitting up like a pro! She loves to giggle at her daddy, swim, snuggling with her bedtime bear, and to watch Cat in the Hat and Spongebob Squarepants!
I'll write soon... or maybe this will be just an annual thing. who knows?

The Vera's Plus One
That's right friends- we made a bay-bee!! :) Pretty crazy-fun rollercoaster goin on right now in my head. (in our heads)
We went to the Dr's today, we are a wee 4 weeks and 3 days along, very early... but our due date is set for March 4th 2010. We're going back in 3 weeks for our first ultrasound, to see our bay-bee for the first time. I'm so thankful and oh-so happy. Our lives aren't perfect and we have our troubles here and there, but I am so excited to be building our family together.
Life is good. Love ya.

Alright.... DO OVER!
Here's the dealio.
I wanted to restart my blogging.
Michael decided he wanted to start his own.
We then decided we would both have our own, and that I would make another blog for "us".
I've come to the realization that -
I DONT HAVE TIME OR CARE TO HAVE THE TIME FOR TWO BLOGS!
So I'll be working on revamping THIS blog to be the "us" blog. (It'll mainly be me anyways. :p)
K... here's to me re-doing all of this....
