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 7 months



A little late on posting about our baby girl at 7 months!!! 

  • She is still the happiest little girl in the world and becoming stronger and busier. 
  • She weighs 17b 13 oz and is filling out her 9 month clothes. She should be moving to 12 month clothes soon but we still have some adorable clothing I am squeezing her into - literally. 
  • She loves to sit and play with any toys that are around her and can sit there for 30 minutes or so! 
  • She is reaching for and picking up toys and transferring them from hand to hand. 
  • She has 2 teeth in the middle of the bottom jaw but chews on everything as if more are close to pop through. 
  • Kane likes all baby food except carrots I think. Every time she eats them she spits them out at me or tries to blow bubbles once they get into her mouth and they go all over the place. 
  • She is so entertained by B, she will watch him play and run around with a few sister kisses in between. They are truly going to be great friends! 
  • She is taking two good naps and a cat nap still in the evening. 
They seem to only be awake at the same time in the early morning and the evening so we get to have a lot of one on one time with each kid and although there is not a lot of quiet time right now, we are never going to get these amazing moments back! We are loving life and our happy little family!
