The story of my life...

I grew up in the country, raising pigs, goats, rabbits, chickens, cats, dogs, geese... I hated it! I wasn't the country girl that my sisters were. I was a girly girl who wanted to be like every other girl in school. I was the rebel child, I didn't listen to the same music as my sisters, nor did i dress the same way, they were country, I wasn't.
My life really stared when I met my husband Matt in September 2005.

We met on MySpace after both of us had just gone through a break up. We were dating for about 2 years before we moved in together, and a year after that in September 2008 we got married. We moved into our very own house just a month before we were married. Shortly after we got married we went through a rough patch and separated for a few months. Our love was stronger then expected and we found our way back together!

Our life took a dramatic 360' turn July 6 2009 when I found out I was pregnant!

 Ever since I was a little girl I have wanted to be a mommy, I can remember carrying a baby doll around up until I was 13 or 14, playing house with my barbie dolls,trying to get my sisters to play with me.
 My dream was finally coming true.

We found out we were having a girl in October of 2009. After that our wallets slimmed dramatically! I went crazy buying things for her, she has more clothes and toys then she really needs.

 I would have had a good pregnancy if it wasn't for sciatica nerve pain. I couldn't stand up for more then about 10-15 unless I was wearing my support belt. I had to quit my job at Gymboree 2 months earlier than i had planned because the pain was so bad. The last 2 months of my pregnancy was spent laying in bed or on the couch. My due date was March 18.  With our last name being O'Connor, it would have been awesome if our daughter was born on March 17, St. Patrick's day... but it didn't happen. Paisley Marie was born on her due date, March 18th at 8:23 PM. My dream had finally come true, I had my precious baby girl in my arms! I was a finally a mom!
