Our Story

On July 30, 2000 my world changed forever!  I gave birth to a 8 lb 2 oz, 20 inch baby boy with lots of dark brown hair.  Caden James Wright was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. Caden has blessed my life and taught me how to love.  He was the sweetest baby and little boy.  Caden's father and I split up when Caden was 2 and so most of Caden's life, it's just been him and me!  I love being his mom and enjoyed spending so much time with him as a single mom.  We have a special bond and I am amazed everyday that God chose me to be mother to this spectacular young man.  Caden has had numerous difficulties and obstacles in his life (I think I'll write a whole post on that) and they have all made him a strong but sensitive young man. I couldn't be prouder!

In November of 2008, I met and started dating Josh. I knew almost immediately that he was the man God had made for me.  Our relationship was awesome from the beginning.  January 23, 2010 Josh proposed to me (total surprise!) on sunset cliffs in San Diego CA. I of course said yes and we were married October 16, 2010.  Caden and I moved into Josh's house in Austin and we began our life together. Josh immediately filled a void in Caden's life (and mine) and has been a wonderful role model and dad to Caden.  I'm pretty sure Caden likes him more than me at this point.  

On our 1 year anniversary, Josh and I decided we wanted to have more children and decided to start trying to get pregnant in the spring of 2012 (sorry if that is tmi).  It didn't take long and on March 13th of 2012, I took 3 pregnancy tests that were all positive!  I couldn't believe it!  We decided to keep it to ourselves for a while. I was pretty nervous, because I had had a miscarriage previously.  

This blog is going to be the story of my pregnancy and our lives after it.
