About Me

Texas, United States
I am happily married to Ellis. We were married on May 9th of 2009 (the best day of my life). I am a nurse in the NICU (neonatal intensive care unit). Ellis is currently in school full time finishing up his basics and is also working as a care partner at the hospital. He plans to attend nursing school. On December 19th of 2010 we were blessed with our son, Gavin. Gavin was with us for 11 short days (that we are extremely grateful for) before he passed away. He is now with our Father in Heaven, where we look forward to seeing him again someday. We are currently expecting our second baby, a little girl. She is due in May of 2012. We have a chocolate lab named Sadie and a yellow lab named Lucky. They are both a little over two years old and a lot of fun. I enjoy learning more about God, traveling, shopping, and spending time with my husband,friends,and family. We love God and know we are blessed beyond measure.

Happy Monday!







Hey! Hope everyone's week is getting off to a good start. Our day has been great. I worked a few extra hours this morning and Ellis started school today. He is excited to get back in the swing of the things. We have life group tonight which we always enjoy. We are 11 weeks pregnant today. Only 2 more weeks and we will be into the second trimester. It seems to be going by so fast. If we are lucky and the baby cooperates we will get to find out in four to five weeks whether it's a boy or a girl. This week our little baby is the size of a lime. All of his or her organ systems are in place, the ears are moving up and to the side of the head, fingernails are developing, and the reproductive organs are growing rapidly. By the end of the week our little fetus will have recognizable male or female parts. He or she weighs approximately a third of an ounce. Hope everyone has a great week. I have attached a few more pictures of our dogs. Hope you enjoy.
Melissa
