Here it goes...

I'm happy to now say I am officially a blogger. Ironically now that I'm busier than ever I've found the time to start this. I think it's more to document these days of my life that are now going by so fast! I can't believe how much has happened in the past year! Last August I married my wonderful husband Mathieu. We went on a fantastic honeymoon and two weeks after we returned I found out I was pregnant. Now, I was very happy to be pregnant, but also very surprised that it happened on the first try. Well fast forward nine months and our beautiful baby daughter Addie was born on May 5th. Now everyone tells you how much your going to love your child, and you believe them. But it is way better. It is way more infinite than our tiny pea brains can comprehend. And for me it represents this taste of how much our God loves us. To be allowed to have a part in creation is the greatest gift He could give us. Wow. So as you can see, my new mom emotions are still pretty raw. In a strange way I hope that never goes away. I would rather live my life in awe of my Creator than to simply take for granted what's been given to me. Five months later, I am enjoying every minute I can with my family. Matt and I so love being parents and are trying to remember that were still people outside of that. And so this is the start of our adventure. ..... more to come!
