Big News FINALLY

I know its been months since we have posted on our blog, but there has been a good reason!! Sorry! A lot has happened since May...we found out in June that we were pregnant! Although we wanted to shout out our excitment on top of the roof for all to know, we chose to wait through the first trimester before we posted it via internet! In addition, I was in the process of interviews for teaching positions, so we had to be careful who we shared the news with. However, we are VERY happy to say that we are now 4 mths pregnant with a very healthy growing baby AND I got a teaching position at Hutto ISD where we live! God has truly answered our prayers this summer!

12 week ultrasound (Taken on Aug. 5th read more on my blog)

Jesus has been dying to take a picture of my growing belly... I finally let him at 15 weeks!

Growing baby and belly at 19 weeks!!

Both Jesus and I have been writing in our own pregnancy journal through this pregnancy process. (I find it adorable that Jesus feels the need to write about his experience as a new daddy as well.) I started my own pregnancy blog called "Mommy Moni's Miracle" that I will now add to our blog for you to follow. I can't explain in words how happy and excited we are to FINALLY be parents. Our families have been a great support and we love them so much for all their love. These next few months are going to be filled with lots of growth and change. We will keep you updated as the our Valdez family grows and experiences new things this year! God bless :)

Through the eyes of Mr. Valdez

Twelve years ago I found a companion who I loved to be around. I knew she was special from the first day we started to get to know each other. We started our journey filling it with many beautiful memories. We have been married for seven years now and have had trials and tribualtions. Our life together has created a beautiful outline that is forever in our thoughts. If one were to ask me what I think of Monica this is what I would tell them. My wife (it's wonderful to say that) is strong, respectful to everyone, has a very generous heart, is a great leader, and has a very special touch with children. She has taught me many things in our time together and continues to do so. We share many things together like biking on the trails, live outdoor music, dancing, spurs basketball, fall football (Hook 'Em), sitting outside on a nice evening grilling hanging out with friends and family, and open to anything new. Being married you also learn to participate in your spouses hobbies and interests. If you don't you may never know that you may like theatrical plays. Through all the love, laughter, tears, and disagreements. I would proudly say that I would do it all over again just to be with her:)

Through the eyes of Mrs. Valdez

When I said "I do" 8 years ago, I didn't know what to expect out of our life together. All I knew was that I was head over heels w/ this handsome hunk I now call my husband! I was a young 20 yr old and we were living the life! Then "life" really hit us. We've had our hardships and our glorious days, and through them all Jesus has always been by my side. No matter the struggles we face, he leads us forward with strength and determination. He is fun to be around, caring and considerate, and always willing to help others. The best thing about him is that he cooks great meals (yum), and has taught me a lot about gardening. We both enjoy outdoor activities, whether its hiking and exploring new places, cooking out and watching sports games, or just sitting out in our backyard patio that we built! We enjoy the company of our families, and we anxiously await the blessing of our own family. After 11 yrs of being his best friend, I am still truly deeply, madly in love w/with him.
