We met in Mesa, Arizona. Cait lived there all her life. Nate served a 2 year mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in Mesa, AZ. It was fate when they first met. Cait fell madly in love with a missionary she couldn't have.....yet. and Nate, well he had other things on his mind like teaching the gospel. But later he would come to find that she was the one.
Got set up on a date by Cait's mom. He had returned from his 2 year mission, she had graduated high school the day before, and off she went to California to "really" meet as she knew him "Elder" Howard. she fell in love, he thought she was shy and didn't care for him. A year goes by. He visits Mesa again, goes on a few dates with Cait, realizes she is the one, moves back a week later, 2 weeks later they are engaged, and 3 1/2 months later were married!
After that came a sweet precious little girl named Riley!
She has grown into a spunky little toddler who likes to have what she wants. Which means she can be pretty demanding or pretty loving. We love all that she brings into our family. She loves:
reading books, swinging, painting nails, chewing gum, and spending time with all her grandparents!
She is always going, going, going. has the energy...of well a 2 year old!
And we love that she is our "little girlie" as daddy calls her.
Then we had Cason. He is the most chill baby you will ever meet. you will probably only hear him cry maybe once a week, and it usually last less than 10 secs. He goes with the flow. He is a sleeper, a laugher. His favorite time is when daddy comes home. He will sit and watch every move daddy makes. He is pretty much obbsessed with Nate. He will cuddle with mommy for a good hour! And I definetely take full advantage of that!
We are living our life to the fullest on a tight budget and a busy schedule with a husband who works and goes to school full time. We have learned a lot in our marriage, we have learned a lot about finances, and a lot about parenting by making mistakes and then trying to do better!
We love our life.
