Happy Birthday Aaron

In case anyone didn't know, today is this handsome man's birthday.




I want to tell my wonderful husband on his birthday how much I love and appreciate him. Aaron takes care of everything and asks for nothing in return. Brinley and I feel so lucky to have him in our lives. We are just going to hang out today with this sweet little girl.




I will update later with what we did today and hopefully some pictures.
In other news, Aaron now shares his birthday with our newest family member, Paislie Olive Preslar. She was born at about 1:30 this morning and was 7lbs 8oz and 21 inches long. Welcome to the Preslar clan little Paislie, We love you and can't wait to meet you. Congratulations to Ryan, Michele, and Kennady.

Happy Father's Day

Just about 5 years ago I fell in love with the most amazing man in the world.



Then he became my best friend.


Then we decided to get married.

And it was one of the greatest, happiest days of my life.



A few years later I told him I wanted to have a baby

He talked to my belly every day and he loved that little girl before she was ever born


He told me I was beautiful, even when I looked like this


And then she was here and she was Daddy's girl from the very beginning


He loved her from the moment she was created and loved her even more the moment she was born

He supported me and my career and stayed home with her. He took her everywhere

He is a natural at the Daddy thing and I couldn't ask for more.

I am so lucky that he loves us both so much. I know how much he will teach her

I know he will always protect her


I know he will always love her.

Happy Father's Day Aaron! You are the most amazing father and husband. You take such good care of both of us. You do everything and take care of everything and I couldn't be more grateful. I love you so much and so does Brinley.


Happy Father's Day to the other Dad's in my life as well.

To my Dad who still worries about me and takes care of me. I love you Dad. Thank you for all you have done throughout my life and all you continue to do. Thank you for being such a good Papa to Brinley


To Tom who has treated me like I am his own daughter from Day 1. Thank you for being such a good Dad to us and Papa to Brinley. You are amazing and we love you.


To Grandpa D. Thank you for loving our little family so much. I love to watch you and Aaron together and see how much he is like you. Thank you for being there for all of us. We love you so much.



To Grandpa Petty who called me every week without fail throughout my entire pregnancy just to check on me. Who has always made me feel like a part of the family. Thank you for loving us and caring about us. I wish I had a picture of you!!!!

To Ira, thank you or being a good Grandpa and Dad. I know you are not feeling so great right now and I hope you feel better soon. We love you.

Finally to all the Mom's I didn't do a blog post about on Mother's Day. I am so sorry. I can only excuse myself with a plea of laziness. I am so grateful for all that you do and for making the men above who they are. I will make it up to you next year. I love you all more than you will ever know.
