And the years fly by

August 24, 2013

It's crazy to think that a year has gone by since I married the love of my life. To celebrate, we went to The Old Spaghetti Factory in Denver, then walked 16th Street Mall as it got dark. I really enjoyed it, because even though we've been through a lot, we're still in love and going strong. Every couple has hard times, but the moments are what make it all worthwhile. Even the blisters I got on my feet from walking in heels that night. 

My husband is the best husband for me, I could not have asked God to give me anyone who would have been a better match. He absolutely adores me, fights for me, loves me, and cares for me. Yes, we drive each other crazy at times, but we are each other's support system.

He is my rock, and I don't know what I would do without him. I thank God for giving me this man, who is my best friend, better half and the love of my life.

Our Dearest Snowbug,

We want to let you know that we love you so, so much. Today Mommy went in for a checkup, and we couldn't find your heartbeat. Tomorrow was supposed to be your 20 week A/S, but they brought in an ultrasound machine. You were measuring at 17 weeks, 3 weeks behind, and had no heartbeat. Mommy is going to see a cardiologist to give the go ahead to deliver you tomorrow. We then will know your sex and have your name picked out!

So we went to Labor and Delivery around 1 pm. I was already having contractions. After talking with a lot of specialists, we decided to give the labor and delivery process a go. I wanted so badly to give birth to you and hold you. They finally gave me some medicine at 5:30 to help the process of labor along. At 10 pm they checked me and gave me more medicine. By 11:30, I was having contractions every 5 minutes, and soon after you were delivered at 11:42 pm. It was kinda hard to tell, but looks like you're a boy. You were so beautiful. Jammie took pictures, and I got to hold you. Daddy was there every step of the way. He was so strong. We named you Lochlan Whyatt Oliver Ness. You were such a big boy! You were measuring 9 inches long and 7 ounces, which I believe means you were about 19/20 weeks along before your heart stopped beating. We love you and can't wait to see you someday. 

We love you so much our little Snowbug.

Love, Mommy & Daddy

Have fun with your brother and sister. Enjoy the clouds and soar for Mommy and I. Your in our hearts.

Love, Daddy
