I am a mother of two, we tried for 4 years to concieve adopted a beautiful 14 month old boy, then got pregnant, 5 months later with a beautiful baby girl. Glad it happened that way because I ended up with 2 of the best kids the world had to offer. My sons name is Owen Daniel Maliki and he is 4 years old and my daughters is Ayla Kelly, she is20 months old. I am married to my sweetheart we met online 9 years ago, got married September 27, 2003. His name is Steven Bryce.













I Believe in Extended Rear Facing.





This is Owen


The first day we met our son! One of the happiest of my life. I will never forget those green striped overalls.




And him today, starting his first day of school.





This is Ayla


The first day we met Ayla Kelly..... 5lbs 14 oz. After 3 days of trying to be induced due to extreme high blood pressure and a pituitary tumor.




And my baby girl now, 20 months and 23lbs and 31 inches, she isn't big but I love her so much.








And this is our family!




Our Wedding day!

We started fostering her when she was 2, but her birth mother had made our life hell until April of this year when we finally were granted custody. It took about 2 years in all.
