It was quite an adventure when Andrea Bev decided to come to the world. Her momma was in the hospital a week before she was born, and then finally had to be induced. It was a little difficult for all of us, especially when baby Andy had to be in the NICU for some four weeks. . That was defintely the trial of my faith, and patience. What an experience to have to watch my baby being taken care of by other people. I would not wish this upon anyone. It broke our hearts not to be able to take her home with us. I guess it was so hard on momma that I decided I needed to be readmitted just a few days later to be close to my baby (yeah right) What a joy to have a child come to this world! She has been a ray of light, and full of the spirit! She is such a happy gal and we love every minute we get with her. It is so good to have her home. Momma treats her like a little doll, and as you can see, loves to paint her nails and get her all pretty. She is going to be the oldest, and hopefully will have some brothers and sisters to join her not far in the future! She gets bigger and bigger everyday and it is hard to beleive that she just over five pounds when she was born. We love her and count ourselves amoung the truly blessed to have this little miracle in our lives

Oh my gosh, she's gorgeous. We need to make plans to get together so I can see Andy.
I love this site! She is an angel. I love the main picture so much, you are right that it is way cuter of everyone. And the pics on the side are perfect. I just love it. I'm excited for you to keep posting for all of us!
Oh my goodness! What a cute family you are! Being a mom is the most wonderful thing in the world! They grow up so fast so cherish every second! My baby is already 17 months old!! Time flies! Thanks for letting me see your blog! I love it!
--I love dimples...I love everything about them! When you look at someone who has dimples, it means they are SMILING, and that really makes me happy. Steve and I have dimples on the opposite side that we are both so proud of. When we got married our bro-in-law said our child would be a "six pound dimple". We quote that all the time. Andy does have two huge dimples, but I can never seem to get it on camera...one day!
---I love the power and influence of music. Our first date was at a Jon Schmidt concert (which is another love in my life). Music has healing power, music is how you feel and express things.
---I love that my family has always enjoyed singing together. Mom would always make us carol with a loaf of bread or brownies to our neighbors. I love that my dad had us singing barbershop at a young age. I love that my husband and I were in a musical together.
--I love musicals! For as long as I can remember, I always looked in the weekend section of the newspaper to find out audition times. I love that my dad took me to musicals. I love that my 16th birthday present form my sister were 2 tickets to Les Miserables (not for a date mind you--but for her and I to go). I love that I saw Phantom of the Opera with my husband. I love that my little sister got me obsessed with Highschool musical. I love that my husband bought me the blanket for my birthday. I love performing in them, and being on stage---I love the feeling.
---I love football, but more particularly--BYU football! I love the PRIDE I feel walking into the stadium and seeing my granpa's number displayed. I love cuddling up our baby and making a day of going to the games. I love that my first game was when I was a baby. I love cheering my team on and supporting them through it all.
---I love BYU. It was the only school I applied to, the only one I even wanted to attend. I love that when I was accepted I called up my grandma and that is the first time I remember her crying. I love that I truly had the BYU experience. I love that it is where I met my husband. I love that I bleed BLUE
---I love being a mommy. There is nothing in the WORLD that compares to it! My little gal is really my pride and joy. I cry every day just looking at her. It was such an experience to get her here, and I recognize that some people never get that experience. They will be blessed---I am so glad I got to have that experience, and pray for it to happen more.
---I love that my husband knows how to follow his heart. He had a feeling to make a very important trip to Arizona, and here we are today! I love that he knows just what to say when I need to hear it. I love that he is truly my sweetheart, and my best friend.
---I love that my grandma helped pay for my piano lessons. Piano has been very theraputic for me, and a constant in my life. I love the discipline that comes with the piano...I love the way it makes me feel. I love that my sister asks me to play for her and her husband. I love that my husband will listen to me play.
---I love that both my husband and I speak Spanish. Not only the Spanish but the reason we KNOW Spanish. I love that we both served missions and that we loved them and love talking about them.
---I love the gospel of Jesus Christ. It is what makes me whole, what makes me complete. It is what makes sense...It is what brings families together.
