TWO WHOLE YEARS!!!!

This entry is dedicated to my wonderful husband. Today we have been married for two whole years and they have been wonderful! It is amazing to think of all the things that we have been through together in these last two years- it truly has been an adventure!! From our wedding day to living in two different countries to having our first baby and falling even more in love with you each day with everything else in between. I seriously couldn't and wouldn't want to do it with anybody else!! Thanks for being my best friend and the most wonderful dad and husband!! I love you so much babe thanks for all you do for us! Happy Anniversary with many more to come!! I LOVE YOU!!

Time Flies When You're Changing Diapers!!!

I can't believe that it has already been almost 4 months since our little one was born!! Time seriously flies!! She is so sweet and so much fun. We (or should i say "I") finally bit the bullet and put her in her crib, it has been a whole week and to our surprise she has peacefully slept through the night each night. Woohoo!!! I can't beleive how big she gets so fast she is so much fun and absolutely full of smiles. Grandma says it's because she is half Brazilian. We have taken so many pictures of her that we can't even count, but I just thought that I would put a few of our favorites.

Andelyn's Blessing

This Sunday was Andelyn's blessing day. It was such a wonderful day! We were so grateful to have our families and friends over to celebrate her special day. Vagner was so nervous about giving his first official blessing in English. He did such a great job it was a beautiful blessing I am so proud of him! We are so excited for the life of our little one, we are so blessed to have her. Andelyn was blessed in the dress that was made for me when I was blessed. It was made by my Grandma Roberts from the same material that was made from my mom's wedding dress, so that was pretty neat. Thanks for everyone's love and support!

The Young & the Restless

This post is a thank you to all of my sweet friends! Andelyn has been having a hard time sleeping just about every night from 2 t0 5 in the morning and it just left me absolutely exhausted!!! All of my friends have just had babies so, I decided to text all of my close girl friends to see what in the world I could do to help her sleep better at night. I was immediately flooded with text messages, e-mails, and phone calls. What wonderful friends I have! In the end pretty much the advice I got was just ...hang in there... and that is what we have been doing. I know that Andelyn is still super young, but I was super tired. I would love to report that Andelyn has done extremely well this week (as well as a newborn can do:) ) We sure love her even if we don't get all of our beauty sleep.

Thanks Girls!! I sure do love ya!!

P.S. I am always open for advice, so if anyone has baby secrets- please share the wealth

Andelyn

I know, I know.... We have been slacking on our blogging, not because of a lack of things to report, but quite the opposite. We have been INCREDIBLY busy, but in a good and wonderful way. Well our biggest news is that our beautiful little girl has arrived. Andelyn was born on Sunday October 11th @ 5:06 pm. She weighed 7 lbs 9 oz. and she looks like she really did come straight from Heaven. We are so overwhelmed with love and excitement to have her. She is only 6 days old, but they have been absolutely wonderful!! Thank you so much to all those who have been such a big help, from moving in, to getting adjusted, to help with our open house, baby showers, baby, and just for your love and support! We are so lucky to have so many wonderful people in our lives from all different corners of the world. We feel so blessed in so many ways.

Celebrate!

This is how we celebrate getting our Visa, by going to Christ the Redeemer. For our interview we had to go to Rio de Janeiro and even though it was a pain to have to travel just so that someone could give us a piece of paper saying that we could finally go to the United States, it was worth it. Especially when you get have a view like this one!

See ya on Wednesday (by the way that is in 3 days)

YAY for the USA!!!

First of all, thank you for all of your prayers because they sure worked! We had our interview on Friday and we were accepted! We are on our way home! We are just waiting for our visa to get here in the mail and by next week we plan on smelling that fresh Utah air. Thanks to all who helped us out so much! We are excited and anxious to see everyone!!!

USA here we come (Finally :) )
