Nellie Belly

Nellie Bear is doing great! I took her to the doctor three days after we got home from the hospital and she had gained 6 oz! She went from being 5 lbs 2 oz when we left to 5 lbs 8 oz three days later. While she was in the hospital we were struggling to get her to gain 10 grams a day. Now she's averaging 2 oz per day. Go Nellie!

Nellie has quickly become the superstar of our family. The first thing the kids do when they come in from school is find Nellie and ask to hold her. We all love her and she brings so much happiness to our home. What a lucky mom I am!!

About us

We met in a women's bathroom just over 13 years ago and knew there was something special there. No, Don's not a wierdo, but he was cleaning the women's restroom, and I was his supervisor, checking to make sure he was doing his job. Then I kept him from doing his job for a long time while we talked and talked. After a little dating and a LOT of letters sent between Portugal and Utah, Don proposed in the Men's bathroom. (He forgot where we met and thought it was the men's) We were married May 25, 2001 and we have four brilliant, adorable, and marvelous kids. Evan is 9 years old and is what I call a quiet goofball. Kabe is 6 and is a not so quiet goofball. Addison is 3 and she is a sweet little ball of fire. Nellie is our newest and sweetest little addition and was born in November. Don works for Zions Bancorporation. He is an Instructional Designer/LMS Administrator. He recently finished his Masters Degree, also in Instructional Design. If we've intrigued you, read on.
