The sweetest


She is the sweetest baby ever!
She hardly ever cries and she's a great sleeper (knock on wood)
We really hope she stays this way.

A Day to Remember




Well its official! Abby and I welcomed into the world a beautiful baby girl named Remi Kimiko Spina. She came at 12:36am Sunday morning weighing 6lbs 14oz and 18.75 inches long. She's a petite little thing and absolutely perfect. Speaking personally that couple minutes during the actual birth were beyond words. I felt so many emotions all at once it was nearly overwhelming. First was the love, falling in love the minute I saw her. Then I look at Abby and feel so proud of her. BTW.....She did an amazing job! The woman was born to be a mommy. Finally in the midst of all the emotions I felt a sense of responsibilty. To love and look over her and protect her from all the evils in the world. All the calls from family and friends were appreciated dearly. We have great family and great friends. We got home today from the hospital and are quite tired but honestly we cant stop smiling. We just stare at her and wonder what she's thinking. Thanks again for all the love! Abby will be uploading pics on a regular basis so stay tuned.

Happy 2 Years

2 Years ago today Jeff and I met... It's a funny story!
I was living with my BFF Kim (and her family) at the time. She had just got home from running some errands and told me to hurry and get dressed cause she wanted to take me to the Fire Station where her husband was working overtime; they had someone they wanted me to meet. So we went over to the station, and there he was sitting at the table in his fireman shorts and sweatshirt! I thought he was cute and nice. He didn't seem too interested, it seemed I was just another girl to him. He was 33 years old, he'd met enough girls and was perfectly content with being single for the rest of his life (little did he know he just met the love of his life).
A few days later he left for Costa Rica for a few weeks and I probably didn't hear from him for about a month after we first met. He finally calls and we chatted, getting to know each other a bit over the phone. We go on a date, dinner at Tokyo Garden and back to his house to watch a movie. Dinner was good. He was a Gentlemen (and still is) and opened all the doors for me! He was kinda touchy-feely... I don't like to be touched! And he called me Babe! Maybe he forgot my name?
We go back to his house to watch a movie and holy crap...literally! I totally got the "ria" from eating at Tokyo Garden. I couldn't go "ria" at his house on our first date. Are you kidding me? So I held it and got the worst stomach ache ever and totally fell ASLEEP on his couch!
I must have been really fun at dinner cause he called me again! I couldn't believe it!
I'm sure it was his best first date ever!

Happy 2nd Anniversary of our first meeting Heff-a
Love you!
