For Time and For all Eternity!


It's official now- Patrick and I are together forever! It was a tremendous experience with a lot of road blocks to overcome, but we made it. The short version of our story would include Patrick getting seriously ill on the drive to the temple, and continuing to throw up in the temple and during our sealing (sad, huh?). Peyton looked like an angel and was the perfect baby while we were there. I think she saw a lot of her friends from Heaven and was catching up with them. I can't remember a time when I felt more at peace and so happy to be alive. There are so many thoughts and emotions running through me right now that there isn't a way to write them all down. In short, it was incredible! I'll be sure to post some pictures later today of the day and some new ones of Miss Peyton Rose, because I know that she's who you really want to see =)

Doctor's Appointment

Well we went to visit the doctor the other day and it was a fabulous visit. Peyton was the perfect lady and didn't cry or fuss- in fact she seemed entertained for the most part (DEFINITELY NOT HER FATHER'S CHILD IN THAT RESPECT). When she left the hospital she weighed in at 6 lbs 11 oz. and 19.5 inches. Yesterday she topped out at 10 lbs 1 oz. and 21.5 inches. The nurse even commented on how cute her little double chin is =) She's also socializing really well and has awesome neck/head control for her age. In short she made her mama and daddy proud.
