From the very Beginning (Part 1)

Mommy and Daddy on Valentine's Day 2008


So Zachary this is how your Journey begins. A loving Mommy and Daddy finally decide to start trying to conceive their first child. The last week in June 2004, 3 weeks after they have celebrated their 7th anniversary and been trying for a year, the Mommy jokingly says to Grandma C., "If I don't get pregnant in a couple of months, hubby needs to be checked out." Needless to say, this did not need to happen, because on July 5, 2004, the one and only hpt was taken and came up positive. Mommy is Pregnant. Yippee!!! Mommy calls Auntie Sarah to tell her, since it will be awhile before she sees her again. Grandma and Grandpa C come over to Mommy and Daddy's house to visit. This is when they tell them that they are going to be grandparents. It was a very special day.
For the first couple weeks, everything seemed to be going good, but then Daddy was terminated from his job. This was a really tough blow for us all. Daddy had only been working there for 8 weeks, bu there really was nothing we could do. Just about the same time, Mommy's boss found a wonderful project for her to do. This ment a bunch more hours at work, but that was okay, it also ment a bunch more money to take care of you, Mommy, and Daddy.
In August, Mommy had her first Drs. appointment and heard your little heart beating. It was the most precious sound she had ever heard in her entire life up to that point. That day they decided that you were going to be born on February 11, 2005.
