Yahoo for Five years!

Today is our 5th anniversary and I just want my Jordy to know how much I love him and that marrying him was the best decision I have ever made. I remember when we were dating, I prayed to Heavenly Father and asked that if he would let me marry Jordan then I would treat him best and love him more than anyone else could. Luckily my prayers were answered, (even though I can always be doing better with my promise) but I will always consider this boy one of my greatest blessings and a direct answer to prayer. I just love you, Jordy!

A Mother's Worst Nightmare

I had the worst experience yesterday! I ran into the mall to buy a new eyelash curler and as I turned to the lady at the counter to ask for one Thais was right beside me, but serioulsy two seconds later I turned back around and she was gone. Thais is adventurous by nature, so at first it didn't really scare me because she is usually wandering at a safe distance, but after several minutes went by I started to worry. I told some of the ladies at the makeup counter and they all got on their walkie talkies and had me describe her and after several more minutes went by of frantically calling her name I really started to freak out. I started bawling as all of the horrible 'What If's' race through your mind, and all I could do was pray that I would find her. Finally, after about 10 minutes one of the women called me over and she found Thais in another department hiding in a rack of clothes. I scooped Thais up and she said, "Momma's eyes are sad?" I told her that I was very sad and I cried even more as I held her (I'm sure being pregnant made this all worse). So, i'm thinking I might have to be one of those tacky parents that puts their child on a leash...but it's better than the alternative. Oh the joy's of motherhood!

We're Preggers!

I know that many of you already know this, but It's still worthy of a blog post! I am having a Thanksgiving Baby (due November 23rd) and we are absolutely thrilled to have another little munchkin running around the house. While in Mexico this past week, we finally told the rest of Jordan's family the news. The way we told them is Jordan was asked to say the prayer on the food one night and he said, "Please bless that Molly (Ben's wife) and Danielle's babies will continue to grow healthy and strong." I think most of the family knew or suspected, but we got a few gasps during the prayer and it was a fun way to announce our second baby :O)
