Hello everyone! I started this blog in November 2008, six months after my first (& so far only) son was born, but back-logged the posts so they would be in chronological order! Ever since I started what I like to call this “online baby book” I’ve been addicted! This blog allows me to share our lives with everyone we love, near and far. It also serves as a journal for me, an album, and a way to record my darling son’s most precious memories!
Want to know a little bit about the “blogger”? Well, I am a 24 year old wife and mother! I met my husband back in the fall of 2001 when I was still in high school, 10th grade to be exact! Even though we both knew something was there, we didn’t officially begin dating until the following December. That only lasted about 3 & ½ weeks because I was honestly a little intimidated by him ;) I had never really had a serious boyfriend. Well, months go by and finally we meet again! We Started hanging out through mutual friends and long story short-he ask me to be his girl on April 5th 2003; his 20th birthday! We have been together ever since & I became Mrs. Steinhauser on September 27th 2008… 4 months & 1 week after the birth of our beautiful son Carter James…
Carter was born on Wednesday May 21, 2008 at 5:18pm! He weighed 7 lbs 10.3 oz & 21 inches long. I began the induction process on May 20th at 11pm and after over 12 hours of little to no progress; Dr. Alawode decided the safest option was delivery via C-section. You see, Carter’s heart rate began to drop every time I had a contraction and even though he was already in the birth canal, I was only at 4 cm and not budging! It was a very exhausting day, but when we finally got to hold our baby for the first time-everything else just seemed to fade away! He is our world & the reason for this blog!! We Thank God for him everyday!
