About Us

Holland, MI, United States
Chris and I met through mutual friends Melissa and Andy Kuiper six years ago. I can honestly say that it was not love at first sight, but as time went on and I got to know Chris I realized that this was someone I wanted to get to know better. As we dated and got to know each other better it became apparent to me that Chris was someone who I loved and wanted to spend the rest of my life with. Chris and I were married June 11, 2005 and have been married for four years. In that time we have become the parents of two beautiful little boys. Simon Thomas, born August 3, 2007, is a very happy and energetic two year old. Baby Luke is a wonderful little baby born June 3, 2009. In the winter of 2008 Chris was offered a fantastic job with Sentry Insurance. He quickly excepted the job which has turned out to be his "dream" job. As a result of Chris starting this job we decided that after teaching first grade for 7 years that I would quit my job and stay at home with Simon and future children. Being at home is truly where my heart is and I am so thankful to be able to stay at home with Simon and Luke. Our family is truly blessed and we are very thankful for all we are given by God!

5 months - well actually 5 1/2 months!


It is so hard to believe that my baby is 5 1/2 months already! He continues to be such a joy. He is an extremely happy baby. He has such a bubbly personality that you can't help but smile when you are around him.

The only thing that would make him more perfect is if he would sleep through the night. We did have a two nights in a row last week that he slept the whole night but that has not happened since. Well, at least I know that he can do it and I have high hopes that he will do it again soon!

Here are some of the new things that Luke is doing this month:
* Rolling all over the place
* Eating baby food twice a day. He loves it now and I have begun making our own baby food.
* Sits up well when propped up and getting better at sitting on his own.



Here are some Luke's favorite things:
* His blankie continues to be a hit
* Doorway jumparoo. It is hilarious to watch him go in this thing!
* Playing with his brother's toys





* Simon is always guaranteed to get a smile and laugh!

Luke is such an amazing baby!! We are truly blessed to have him in our family.
