The Beginning

Here's how it started...

In September 2007 after my cruise and Alex's wreck, I became extremely sick. I was vomiting nonstop to a point where nothing, not even water would stay down; every medicine didn't help and the doctor was not sure what was going on. I had been sick for 9 days and had lost 15 pounds when the doctor broke the news to me privately that I was pregnant and was suffering from extreme morning sickness.Pregnant. I could not believe it; that word rung in my ears for what felt like hours. I was shocked and flabbergasted. After breaking the news to my family and to Alex, preparing and repairing began.

After lots of tears and heads hung in shame...love was shown and forgiveness was in order. After much prayer and consul forgiveness was given and decisions were needed to be made. One month later, Alex and I were engaged and 7 weeks later, Alex and I were given the most beautiful and extravagant wedding that we did not deserve and I could not have ever imagined. Even though a sin had been committed, forgiveness had been given and a life was on the way so Alex and I had to begin to prepare for the new life ahead of us. The wedding was Dec, 21st and the church had been covered in love with fake snow, trees, snowflakes...street lamps, berries and ribbon. It was a winter wonderland like no other. The bridesmaid were in red strapless dresses with fur stoles while the groomsmen were buttoned up in black tuxes and red vests. At the stage waited my handsome husband to be in a ivory vest and black tux; he watched with a smile while my wonderful daddy gracefully walked me down the aisle in my gorgeous white halter top dress with beautiful bead work and a fabulous red sash that flowed down with my train.



5 months and one week late, after a rough labor Madilyn was born. What a undeserving blessing to have such a beautiful child. The road Alex and I have been traveling on has been a hard one but it had been wrapped in prayer by so many friends, family and church members. Our marriage and our child has been and is being prayed for by so many. I know that things would have not worked out so well if it hadn't been for all those prayers. Believe in the power of prayer because my great marriage and healthy child would not have been possible without it. Also, never doubt my God for He is wonderful and giving no matter what the circumstances and He is loving even when you screw up big time.

Madilyn Taylor...2 weeks old!

So here is the first blog of many.

Today at 10:43pm Madilyn will be 2 weeks old. I think in ways time has just gone by fast but then again it kinda feels like it has been much longer than that. I can already see the changes in how she has grown and how alert she is. She makes the funniest faces and is quite the entertainer. She is such a joy to be around except when she is crying her head off because I'm not feeding her soon enough..haha.

I know she was not planned and we all were not prepared for this but I just love her so much and I have to remember, this was God's plan...He knew this was going to happen and He is gonna help us and see us through this time. I have so much trust and prayer in Him, as which I should as a CHRISTian.

Madilyn is such an amazing baby, who is making parenting quite easy for now, things could change once she gets older and we see her true personality. :)

We have had so much help, love and support from all our wonderful family and friends. I know that we are sooo truly blessed to be surrounded by all these amazing people. God has blessed us so and we don't deserve it at all. Just another reason to praise and thank my Almighty God.
