Our 10 Year Anniversary!

I can't believe we have been married 10 years already! Time has really flown by so fast. It seems like just yesterday we were getting married and planning our future together. Now that I look back over the years, we have gone through a lot together, not just the two of us but with both of our families. Here are a few things that we have experienced together over the last ten years:



Mexico; New York City; the lost of grandparents and family members; my parents divorcing and remarrying; graduating from AUM; my first teaching experience; getting our first dog (Maggie Ann); duck, goose, & quail hunting; canoeing; buying a new house and a new horse trailer; losing two horses (Princess & Dixie); surgeries; birthdays; holidays; night classes for my master's degree; and probably our biggest obstacle so far - going through infertility, and then being Blessed with two precious baby boys.



I could keep going, but you get the idea. We have lived life together for the past 10 years and have been there for each other. We couldn't do it with out the love and support for each other. We are very lucky to have each other and have such a strong relationship. Yes, we have arguments just like all couples, but we don't forget what is most important - that we have each other! Michael, I LOVE you! I'm the luckiest person in the whole world and I look forward to spending the rest of my life with you! You are not only my bestfriend and husband, but also a wonderful father to our boys! I can't wait to see what the next 10 years of our lives brings us.

Can you tell that Michael loves to hunt? Especially, ducks and geese!!

One of Michael's closest friends' birthday (Hardy) was yesterday, and his wife, Tracee, had a surprise birthday dinner for him at Bonefish Grill in Montgomery last night. I took these pictures last night and couldn't resist posting them with Michael's.

Happy Birthday!!!

Happy Father's Day

Happy Father's Day to the best Dad ever!!! This is a very special Father's Day for Michael. This is his first Father's Day. This time last year, we did not know if we were ever going to be parents or not. But we are so Blessed.
Michael is the best Dad ever to Whit and Brady. He is truly a "Super Dad." He takes care of the boys on Tuesday and Thursday nights all by himself. I'm working on my master's degree and have classes two nights a week. He is so awesome. He takes care of these two precious baby boys by himself with no help from any one. That means he has to give them baths and bottles and puts them down for the night. I don't know many dads who would take this job on by themselves, especially with twins who are almost six months old. Michael, you deserve an award. Better yet Whit and Brady have a message for you.

Dear Daddy,
We are so lucky to have a daddy like you. Thank you for loving us and taking care of us. You even change our stinky diapers without complaining. We can't wait until we get big enough to be able to go hunting with you. We know you will teach us everything you know. Thanks Daddy. We LOVE you.
Whit and Brady

This is a picture of us holding the boys for the first time after they were born. A few weeks later.
And a few more weeks later after they were home.

Happy Father's Day to all the Dads! It is really a special day.

One Year Ago . . .

It's hard to believe that one year ago today our boys were conceived. Not many people can say they know the exact day their children were conceived, but we can because of IVF. This time last year we were heading to Birmingham for my egg retrieval and five days later (June 15) two embryos (Whit & Brady) were transferred to me. I remember the doctor talking to us before the transfer. She said now you know if you become pregnant there will be a 60% chance that it will be twins. We had heard this same speech before. We just wanted a baby. On Friday, June 29, 2007, we found out that I was finally pregnant. I think that was one of the happiest days of our entire lives! That is until Whit and Brady were born. I could keep going on and on, but the main reason why I wanted to post is to say . . . when you think that it can't and won't happen, just keep praying and have faith because God does listen! Look what He gave us, and I thank Him everyday for our miracle baby boys!!!

Jane's First Day!

Today was Jane Pierce's first day keeping the boys. It was a very hard and long day for me. I had to leave this morning at 7:30 because I had to go to a workshop in Troy. When the workshop was over, I had to drive to Montgomery to go to class; plus, I didn't get home until 10 pm, and they were already in bed, so I can't hold them and love on them until morning. Overall, I think I did really well. I only called three times to check on them. I know Jane is going to do a great job with the boys. She already loves them and is spoiling them rotten. She even brought her camera today so she could take pictures of them. We are very blessed to have her!!! It is going to be so wonderful not to have to take them to daycare everyday. Thanks Jane! We already LOVE you so much!!!

5 Month Pictures
