our story


Welcome to my life… 

Over the past three years it has been flipped upside down. I am 31 years old, and married to my hubby of three years, Josh. We have 4 beautiful angel babies, who are fondly known as our “Green Beans”. The first of my quads, Heidi, held on as long as she could and was born on January 31, 2009 after pPROMing at 17 weeks. A few weeks later, I pPROM’d with my sweet Lily. Lily, Paige, and Rylan were all born at 22 weeks on February 23, 2009. Just after being released from the hospital empty handed, I returned with a high fever and infection.  Two of the nights I spent in the hospital that week, I honestly thought I was going to die. It was the sickest and most hopeless I’ve ever been. I’m pretty sure my diagnosis was a broken heart.


Our journey to becoming parents has had its share of happiness and heartbreaks.  
 I got through every day by staying close to Josh, friends and family, blogging, and relying on God that my future will be bright. All the love and support I’ve gotten has greatly helped me manage……I am alive and well, and want to be my absolute best as a result of this.


On May 1st 2011, we welcomed our sweet baby girl, Taylor, into this world.  She is our miracle baby and brings so much joy and happiness in our lives.  She is such a gift from God.


I have come out of all of this with a better appreciation of life. I hope to make the best of this situation by helping others who will experience a similar loss.

  2. I'VE LEARNED IN THE BIBLE THAT DEAD PEOPLE ARE SLEEPING AND WHO SLEEPS, WAKES UP. YOUR BABIES ARE IN JEHOWAH'S MEMORY AND HE ALSO PROMISES DEAD ONES WILL LIVE AGAIN HERE ON EARTH, SOON. YOU CAN LOOK FORWARD TO THE DAY WHEN YOU'LL HOLD THEM IN YOUR ARMS HERE ON EARTH.

  4. I happened on this site looking for pictures on the internet. God is amazing in that at the time my husband and I are trying (once again) to conceive, that I am here reading your story. You have a wonderful husband who has walked through this battle with you. My husband and I have been married for 21 years and have had 3 and 0, but God is still able. God bless you for making this blog, it has been an inspiration to us to keep trying. Jai
