August 14th 2007
Welcome to our blog! Dave and I were married August 14th 2007 in the Salt Lake LDS Temple. I can't speak for Dave, but I love being married! ~I am pretty sure he does too. :) It is so great to have someone to share my life with. We have so much fun together. We love traveling and spending time with our family and friends. Here is a little bit more about us...
Dave served a 2 year religious mission in the Dominican Republic. He then graduated from the University of Utah with a degree in business finance while also completing his pre-medical requirements. He attended Creighton University school of medicine. He started in the fall of 2009. He is now a resident in dermatology and internal medicine at University of Wisconsin hospitals.
I graduated from the University of Utah in Elementary Education. I taught 2nd grade at Bancroft Elementary. Bancroft is a great school and I loved working with everyone there. When Cole was born I decided to stay at home with him. I am loving every minute of my time with him.
We have made so many great friends in Omaha and in Madison. But we still love and miss our family and friends in Utah! We hope this blog will help them feel connected to us, even if we aren't around as much as we'd like to be. Enjoy!

3 months old, living in a house of boxes!!!

Cole is already 3 months. I can't believe it! It seemed like the 8 months we knew he was on the way here took forever and now more than a third of that time has passed in a flash.
Dave and I are enjoying being Cole's parents so much!! He is such a sweet baby. We love all the smiles and giggles we are getting out of him lately. He is such a strong baby. He loves to sit up like a big boy and is rolling from his belly to his back easily now. He is trying so hard to roll from his back to his tummy, but has only done it, on his own, once that I've seen.
We are back to nursing now, but I dont think my milk is as easy on his tummy as the special formula we have for him. So we decided today to try to give him one bottle of formula a day to help out his digestion. Hopefully his intestines will get better at processesing my milk without irritation as he gets a little older.
Our family is moving in 3 days to Wisconsin, Dave will be doing a Dermatology residency there, so we will be living there for the next 5 years. Our house here in Omaha is pretty much all boxed up. So for Cole's 3 month pictures I thought it would be fitting to have him surrounded by our lovely decor. Haha!
Here he is!
