How it all began

Ralph and I have been together since the summer of 2008 but it all began in 1992. Ralph's sister, Colleen and I have been best friends since 6th grade and we grew up at each other's houses throughout the years. Ralph was always around but being the younger brother was forbidden to be around us (not that he wanted to make up dances with us). We said hi during high school and when I needed a jersey to wear to school on Fridays, Ralph was nice enough to let me wear his. He visited Kent State while I was there once to look at the football team and campus but decided against attending. He joined the Marine Corps and we spoke through emails every now and then just to see how the other was doing. Life went on and our paths finally crossed again in 2008 when Colleen invited me to their families yearly 4th of July party. Ralph was home on leave from Iraq and I just moved back to Cincinnati. This time when we saw each other things seemed a little different and the rest is history. In December 2011 we were engaged, July 2012 we were married, April 2013 we bought our first house and March 2014 we had our first child, Braxten! Each year has been more blessed than the last and we are so excited to see where our future takes us!

Kane is 1 month old!!!



Kane is 1 Month old! We are shocked how quickly time flew by. She is a happy and healthy little girl. We could not ask for anything more.  At one month this little girl is...


  • 10 pounds 1 ounce
  • 21 inches long
  • Hair is still dark but getting thinner
  • Eyes are still blue
  • Smiling more often and beginning to coo
  • Turns her head when she hears voices
  • Has a strong neck as she constantly holds her head up and turns it side to side
  • Liking tummy time but falls asleep
  • Pushing hard with her legs as if she wants to stand already
  • Sleeping from 7-8 hour stretches at night (5 days in a row)
  • Puts up with her screaming brother while getting poked in the head
  • Receiving a pacifier from Braxten when she cries
  • Has hiccups at least once a day
  • Eats super fast and if she is not slowed down she will projectile vomit all over everything

The doctor was quite impressed with the strength of her neck and how alert she is. Kane even gave the doctor a little smile. No shots at this appointment so we were a happy girl in the office and after. She is a laid back, sweet, cuddly little girl and we are loving every second as a family. We could not be happier and are thankful for all the love and support from family and friends. 
We love you Miss Kane!
