about us

We're from the Syracuse, NY, area and started dating when we went to BYU-Idaho for college. We were married December 2008 and have a daughter, Sophie. We will be welcoming a new baby in November 2013! We currently live in Mason, Ohio, near lots of family! Drew is working at Liberty Mutual Insurance as an Auto Claims Adjuster. Carissa is now a stay-at-home wife and momma! We know there's more in store for us in our future, and we say, "Come what may and love it!"

ONE MONTH!

I can't believe how quickly this month has flown by... My baby is a whole month old! Sophie, honey, STOP growing so quickly!
At this point, Sophie:
-weighs at least 6 pounds! (that's just a guess... but she weighed 5 lbs 7 oz last week and she's still eating so well and feels like she's been gaining!)
-has grown out of her preemie clothes!
-wears newborn clothes and diapers
-is balding on top of her head, thanks to one of her new hats
-has finally found Momma's face!
-sleeps well at night and only wakes to eat
-has an eye color that is lightening up more every day... we're thinking she'll have hazel eyes like Daddy!
-had her first nail-clipping experience today!
-got to visit Uncle Tyler and Aunt Cortney today! (the Larsons are visiting this weekend!)
-went on her first trip outside Rexburg - to Idaho Falls! we visited Tyler and Cortney and then went to get some pizza at Lucy's Pizzeria
-LOVES being "worn" by Mom... the baby wrap is a miracle invention!
-hates baths, but loves showers with Momma (the nurses at the hospital encouraged us to introduce as many skin-to-skin opportunities as possible, including showers, to promote closeness and advanced development)
-is getting quite the double chin! :) we're kind of happy about this one
-wore her first real dress today! we got her all dolled up to go out... she looked adorable!
-is celebrating her very first Christmas Eve! all three of us have been spending all day together... we'll be watching Christmas movies until we zonk out

PHOTOS COMING SOON!
