My name is Sarah I am 26 years old. My SO's name is Khanh and he is 28. We have been together for 10 years this summer. I have wanted to be a mommy ever since I could remember and my dream finally came true on 11/11/08 when we welcomed our beautiful daughter Khloe Mai into the world.
A little info on the pregnancy/delivery....I got pregnant the first month we tried and my estimated due date was 11/10/08 (I liked to think we conceived on Valentine's Day!) I had a very easy pregnancy and delivery. I was induced on my due date @ 11 pm and after 14 hours of labor and 14 minutes of pushing Khloe Mai Phan arrived @ 7lbs 5 oz and 19.5 inches long.
When she was 2 months old we took her to Vietnam (where the majority of SO's family is.) It was the most amazing experience....taking Khloe home to meet his whole family, especially his parents, made the whole trip worthwhile. I can't wait to take her back! It is hard with her other set of grandparents being so far away but I e-mail them frequently and send pics and videos. We hope to go back in 2010.
Khloe is our whole world...neither of us can imagine our lives without her and life before her seemed so meaningless. I never knew how much love I could have for someone until I met my daughter...I cannot even put it into words. She looks just liked Khanh and has my personality (I like to tell people that anyways so that I can say she got something from me!)
Anything else you would like to know about me/us just ask!
