Our Story

Ben and I met in 1996, began dating in 1999 and married in 2001. Now 20 years and 2 children later, we have returned to where our life together began. Ben works for the Federal Reserve and I have the privilege of staying home with our two precious boys.

The News is Out!


Everyone finally knows that we are expecting our little addition in July! Currently our due date is July 28th, but I already feel fat so we'll see about that! Ben and I found out our exciting news on November 19th when we were only 4 weeks along, then we announced it to our family around Thanksgiving. Everyone is absolutely thrilled and we got the occasional "Well, it's about time you've been married 7 and a half years!" This ultrasound was at 7 weeks, but we've just reached 12 weeks. Ben is force-feeding me healthy food and it was so hard going through the holidays with all of that yummy food thinking that I should be eating an apple when rocky road candy tasted so much better! But don't worry, Ben's making sure that I eat plenty of fruit and yogurt and stay away from sugar. He's convinced that our child will be born with ADD because of his genes and my sweet tooth. However, what he doesn't know won't hurt him!
