Steph's Career Change

Now that the baby is here, I'm looking forward to being home fulltime. My last day at Fringe Benefits Design was Oct. 12. I was there for 3.5 years...can't believe how fast that went. It was a wonderful job! My plan is to help Jared with his job this spring some. I'm pretty excited about being home with Brenna and watching her develop.

Celebrating one year at JDR

October 2nd marked the completion of my first year in real estate as a Realtor with The JDR Group. I've really enjoyed the business and have had some great success. Thanks to all of you for supporting me over the last year. I look forward to doing what I can to provide top notch service to my clients.

Brenna's First Bath

Brenna had her first bath at home today. We set up shop on the kitchen table. Although there was some crying, overall she was cooperative and in the end, glad to be clean. Mom thought she smelled great!

Our new addition

Hello everyone,
I want to introduce you to the newest addition to our family...Brenna Joy Van Cleave. Born 10/16/07 at 9:23pm at Mary Greeley Hospital in Ames, IA. Brenna weighed 7lbs. and 7oz. and was 21" long. What a blessing to have this little bundle of joy in our lives.
