One.

 This baby boy is one today.

I can hardly believe how time has flown by.  One year ago, Mr. H and I were hanging out in the hospital, playing phase 10 over and over again. (In fact, one of the nurses commented she had never seen people play the game so many times in a row. )  We were really excited, but oh so nervous.  C was born at 11:10 p.m.  It was such a surreal experience.  He was the cutest baby.  We could not get over this little person that had appeared in our lives.  

 

It took us a long time to get adjusted to this little boy.  I in particular had a very hard time, especially the first two weeks.  I was in such darkness, and I was so worried that I would not be able to take care of this baby and be the mother he deserved.  I remember a blessing I received during that time, in which I was promised that great blessings would come from little C, and that the darkness would open into light.   Being C's mom is the best and greatest gift I have ever received.  He is an amazing little boy, and has taught me to be more like my Savior.  Mr. H and I are constantly telling each other how we are so blessed to have a sweet little boy in our lives.

Introduction part I.

I've wanted to do a little photo story to document for myself (I get sentimental) how time does fly.  Sorry for the picture overload. :)

Mr. H. and I met in elementary school and were friends all through high school.

Then Mr. H came home from serving an LDS mission, and we started to date and fall in love.

Mr. H proposed January 22, 2011

About a month before our wedding, Mr. H got sick.  With faith and prayer, we decided to move our wedding up and go through the scare together.

Our friends and families gave us the most beautiful wedding two people could ask for.  

 

Our little brand new family was blessed, and Mr. H got to be on the mend.

A couple of months passed, and soon, to our delight, we found that I was expecting!

We found it was a baby boy!

We went on a trip to North Carolina, where Mr. H. had served his mission.

We celebrated our 1st anniversary!

New.

We're starting out new to the blogging world.  I love reading others, and I've thought that it might be time to start on of my own.  I'm hoping to include thoughts on things I feel strongly about, life updates and different projects/recipies we're trying.
