Hello and welcome to our page! I am Danielle (Dani) Gearhart. I am 22 years old. I was born November 11, 1980 in Richmond, California. I am happily married to Keith, who is 23. He was born October 14, 1979 in Richmond, California. We were born in the same hospital.
We meet in September of 1997. We started dating on October 14, 1997. Yup, Keith's birthday!
We started talking about getting married around February of 1999, but didn't make a date, because we didn't think there was any need to rush it. But it was in our plans.
I got pregnant with our first child in May of 1999.
Keith couldn't find a job good enough to support a family, so he decided to join the U.S. Coast Guard. When he went in to sign the papers his recruiter told him that if we were planning to be married and wanted the pregnancy covered by his insurance, we would have to be married before he signed the final papers, or else it would be a long while before we could live together, etc.
Since we had already decided that we were going to get married, we just chose to pick a date before he signed the papers.
We were married on July 31, 1999 in Reno, Nv.
We have now been married for almost 4 years and are still very happy!
Keith is no longer in the Coast Guard. He now works for a huge plastic manufacturer. I work full-time on Graveyard at a casino.
Our 1st child...

Selena came into this world by c-section after a failed induction. I had pre-eclampsia and had to go into the hospital 3 weeks early after waking up one afternoon (2-4-00) with blisters on my eyeballs. I was already having contractions. I wasn't dialated at all. My Dr. kept me there and then the next morning she induced me because my contractions had stopped. By 4:30AM on February 6, 2000 I had been in labor for 36 hours and had only dialated to a 3. Since I was so sick from the pre-eclampsia, my Dr. decided it was time to go for a c-section...
Selena is now and happy, healthy 3 year old!
In December of 2000 we got pregnant again...
Our 2nd child...
