A little bit about us...


Seth and I are truly a perfect match for each other! We balance out each others personalities well and really enjoy our life together! I grew up in the church and met Seth after high school. Seth was raised Christian and has great moral values and standards, so when I met him I saw a lot of potential! We dated for 4 years, when he asked me to marry him I told him YES!!!! BUT that I wanted him to at least take the missionary lessons, I really wanted to raise our family together in the church. He was willing, so we got married in 2002 and we've been married for 8 years now! AND 3 years after we were married he was baptized! :) Seriously one of the best days of my life! He is such a fantastic man and I'm so blessed to have him as my partner! We were sealed in 2006 in the San Diego Temple. Since then we purchased our home and tried to start our family. After 2 and half years of no success, we did fertility testing and figured out that the only chance of us getting pregnant would be to do in-vitro. So we did and were very blessed to get pregnant with Mitch(who is 2 now) on the first try! I LOVED being pregnant and was so lucky to have such a great and healthy pregnancy! I'm so grateful I was able to experience that! Having such a hard time getting pregnant and being blessed with Mitch has made us such great and patient parents. We were hoping that we had figured out the way to have our family, but knew we would adopt if we couldn't get pregnant again using the embryos we already had. We've tried to get pregnant again twice since then without success, which has let us know how blessed we were to get pregnant with Mitch the first time! I'm so grateful for what we learned from that trial, although it was so hard to go through it has truly made us better and stronger people AND made our relationship stronger and shown us that we are supposed to have the rest of our children another way. We have great friends and family who have adopted and shown us how wonderful an experience it can be and we are just so excited to have another child this way! Seth's sister is adopted and we cannot imagine life without her, she is an amazing woman! So hopefully that gives you a little more info on us, please feel free to ask us anything!
