Hello everyone! My name is Sarah and I welcomed mylittle boy on September 19, 2009.He was 9 pounds 7 ounces and 23" long. He's my big boy. He is now 2 & 1/2 months old and already has his 2 bottom teeth!!!He's developing way too quickly.I'm pretty easy to talk to and I will talk to just about anyone... unless it's about drama.
I'm married to the greatest man in the world (cheezy i know). He always stands by me regardless of the situation. We have been married since March 15, 2008. Now that our little guy is here, we feel like our life is complete! Another child may be in our future, but definitely not any time soon. I've got my hands full with this one.
I'm in nursing school, studying to become a registered nurse. Nursing is my passion and I'm glad I'm lucky enough to know what drives me in life. Only 4 classes left *woot woot*
