Jake and I went to high school together. We were both in the FFA and met when we took a trip down to Las Vegas to watch the PBR. We later become closer friends when we went in the same group to a high school dance. Six months later we started dating, and now have been together for over two years and have the most beautiful baby girl.
We currently live in Spanish Fork. Jake is working at Stouffers full time, going to school full time and whenever he has free time he is also working for my dad. Because my husband is so selfless I am able to be a stay at home mom to our wonderful daughter. I feel so blessed everyday because I have such a wonderful husband. He would do anything for me or Addalynn no matter what it required out of him. Jake has to work every morning between 2 and 5 a.m. he only gets a few hours of sleep every night because he says he would rather spend time with us then sleep. After he gets home from work he helps me around the house, does his homework, goes to school, then comes home and helps some more before going to bed. I feel so blessed to have such a great husband who I love so much!!
Addalynn is three months old. Everyone has always said enjoy kids when they are little because they never stay like that for long. Well I am here to agree with every person who has ever said that. My mom always joked that because I had such an easy pregnancy I would have a hard baby… well she was wrong!!!! I have the best baby any mother could ever ask for. She started sleeping through the night at two months old. She currently sleeps anywhere from ten to twelve hours a night. She is the happiest little baby you will ever meet. My family doesn’t think she can even cry. The only time she gets mad is when she is hungry, then you have about two minutes tops to get her food or she gets mad. She has so much personality for someone so young! She thinks she is a big girl and needs to be sitting up at all time and be involved with anything going on. When someone is holding her and they try to rock her she will start crying, we simply tell them to sit her up and she will stop right away. She has been the biggest blessing in my life. It is so hard to think back and wonder how you ever did it without her!! I am so sad that she is growing up so fast but at the same time I am so excited for everything that we still have to come!
Jake and I have some big plans for the future. We are in the process of looking for a house to buy. We will hopefully find one we love and be moved in by August. Jake is going to UVU and is majoring in exercise science. Once he receives his bachelors he will start the PA program at Weber University. I will start school in the fall semester at UVU and major in Criminal Justice. Jake and I have been so blessed. We have had so much family help, encouragement and guidance in the past year. I look back and wonder why we have been so blessed. I don’t even like to think about where we would be if we did not have such wonderful families which we love so much and could never thank them for everything they have and do for us!!
