We got married two years to the day! Thanks for all the fantastic memories that we have shared so far. Thanks for being the wonderful mother that Savvy deserves, all while putting up with me and being the great wife you always have been. Savvy and I love you very very much, and we appreciate all that you do for us.





Yay!

Savvy's Big Day

Savvy Defa Nielsen

We blessed Savvy on Sunday. It was such a beautiful day!! Savvy was so good!!! She is the most calm patient baby I have ever been around. Dustin did such a great job on the blessing. This isn't the first time Dustin has given Sav a blessing. I am so greatful for the preisthood and am so glad we have it in our home.


Savvy was blessed in the same dress I was blessed in. My Grandma made it for me 27 years ago and Savvy looked so cute in it.

The boys

Savvy had so many family and friends who came out support her. Thanks everyone!!! We are so blessed to be surrounded by such great people!!!

Please STop GroWiNg!!!


My little Savvy girl is growing up so fast!!! And I don't like it!!! Here is an update of we have been doing since Sav has joined our little family.

Dad started baseball a couple of weeks ago. Savvy and I love going to his game and cheering loud, especially when the weather is nice.
We took Savvy to the Tulip Festival at Thanksgiving Point. She slept the whole time.
And good friends Greg and Lynsey came with us.
We took Savvy on a road trip to Vegas to visit Dez. ( I just realized I didn't take any pictures of the two of them) Sav did so good in the car and on the trip. We are so luckey to have such a good baby.
Dustin and I are so greatful that Savvy was sent to us> She is such a joy and has brought us so much happiness. I never knew you could love someone so much. My little girl is growing so fast. I wish i could stop time right now! I'm loving life!!!!

A Funny Little Joke...

So Savvy has been bugging me about playing a little joke on Kristin. She thought of this little prank about a week ago and I told her that I would go along with her little jest. What better time to pull it all off than on April Fool's Day, right?



Enjoy.

Light Your Stuff Up!!!

Yes, thats right. "Keeping It Cool Just Became COOLER!" Isn't it though?? Freakin' cool I must say.


I've got one and it rocks my socks off. It will rock your socks off too. If you wear socks, that is. I always do.


There are a couple sizes to choose from, and a wide range of lighting colors to choose from as well. Not only does it light when opened so that you can easily see what you have stashed away in your cooler, it's also the very best cooler you can buy!


Its great for camping, parties, hunting, and pretty much anything else you can think of.



Check out the website and go get yourself a sweet LiddUp cooler at http://www.liddup.com/

Introducing...

Savvy Defa Nielsen




Well here she is! All 6 lbs. 11 ounces of her. She measured 19.5 inches long. Look how cute!



After pushing and pushing she finally came to us. We feel so lucky to be able to bring this little girl into this crazy world. She is just 22 hours old and already she has captured our hearts and continues to make us smile. We are so gratfeful that our familes could be here to share with us in this special time.



Kristin is doing well. She is tired but hanging in there. Kristin did so good the whole time. She is a trooper and I dont know how she was so tough the whole time.



Savvy is good as well. She gets cuter and cuter every time we look at her. Crazy how that happens, huh...?



We will post more pictures a little later, but for now this is all we have.













No, this last picture is not a mirage. I DID change this diaper. Later though, I found out that I didnt do it good enough. Our nurse was so kind to point that out to me.


YAY!

A little video update

Its gonna be another while I'm afraid...

The wait continues.

Off To The Hospital

Well well well...the time has come. We are finally having our little girl after a long 9 month wait. Between going to the doctor a bajillion times and all the aches and pains, the little one is finally ready to come out.

We had been doing a lot of things to make the process go a little faster. We tried lunges, walking and walking and walking...we even tried some weird pizza at a downtown cafe. But this morning, Kristin had been feeling a little different, and thought something was up. By about 10:30 am she felt something running down her leg. It was then that she figured that....


Yes. Her water broke.


Kristin was nervous so I told her to call her doctor to make sure thats what it was. She was asked to go into the doctors office at 1pm. We went up to see the doctor and after a test or two we were asked to go on up to the hospital to have this baby girl.


Kristin just got finished getting her epidural and we are told its "smooth sailin'" from here. We are crossing our fingers.

Here is my cute wife getting ready for the rest of the whole ordeal...


Look how happy she is!

So at this point we wait....

Kristins feet are becomming more and more numb.

Umm....I'll keep you posted.

Ciao!
