Mission Accomplished

This is my latest and greatest creation! This onesie is sold to a special little girl that turns one this July and i hope she loves it! I have been meaning to learn how to make items like this for my store and me and my mom finally sat down to work on it! I enjoyed spending time with her learning my machine and learning how to sow on hers as well. I don't get to see her much this summer so i stayed up WAY past my bed time this evening to spend time with her and do artsy things with our sowing/embroidery machines! It was alot of fun and i know my sisters are jealous! Mission Accomplished! HA HA HA

my one and only

Introducing my one and only! It's funny how i have been feeling him kick and dance around in my tummy and now that i kinda see him in this picture i love him even more. I never knew i could love someone this much its like nothing else matters! It has been hard to be on bed rest but i would do anything for this boy!

Dear Canyon,
I promise that i will always try to make you the happiest little boy on earth! We will play everyday and it will never get boring. You will be my heart and my best friend. I will be here as you grow and support every decision you make and when you make wrong choices i will try to help you get back on the right path. You will have people come and go in your life but no matter what i am here to stay! There will be days that you love me, days you dont like me and days where you wish i would leave you alone (so sad!) and we will make it throught all the good times and all the bad! I love you so much and can not wait to hold you in my arms, dance around the house, play ball, and just watch you grow! See you soon baby.
I love you,
Mommy

While all my family is having fun together in dallas im headed to the beach!! okay not really but i have been thinging about going into my closet..finding my bikini, putting it on, laying on the couch, closing my eyes and imagining that this picture will be the view from my couch! Wishful thinking i know but if i have to lay around all day i can dream im somewhere more amazing than the couch! Ahhhhh i need a beach in my back yard.

Well, me and dustin and my mom went to a 3-d sonogram yesterday moning! I was very excited and loved seeing my little boy! He really is a cutie even though the images were very fuzzy. I still dont know which one of us he looks like more but im leaning more towards ME! I guess we will see in a few weeks. My whole family is at market trying to get more inventory for mine and sarahs stores! Its a bummer for me because last market i was in the hospital being sick sick sick with canyon and this time im on bed rest with canyon! BOOOOOOOO! But i hope they are having fun and im anxious to see what they get and home much of my money is out the door! Oh gosh that makes me stressed!

ME!!!

So, since i haven't got to get out of the house in a while i thought i would put an updated picture of myself because i dont want anyone to forget what i look like! Ha... as you can see i have gained a bit of weight since last time you saw me. I also have not been able to have my hair done in a while so it is CRAZY! You cant tell in the picture but if i was standing it would be completely obvious that one of my boobs is larger than the other one and if that isnt bad enough, my pregnant belly has gotten so very large that i have a very hard time shaving my legs!!! Oh gosh i hope i get it all together after Canyon gets here!! So depressing!!!!!!

Fathers day!!

Today is Dustins very first fathers day!! HAPPY FATHERS DAY! He is going to be a great dad and I can't wait to watch Dustin and my little boy do MAN things together! I was thinking yesterday how blessed i am to be having a little boy because no longer am i gonna have to help mow, set post, or any kind of man activity. Although i may feel a little left out of all the chores one day.... i think ill manage! Ha, this is a great day and i can't wait for all the many fathers days to come!
Love you babe

Thats my daddy!! I am very blessed to have a daddy like this! He is the greatest. Hes always there for me and my sisters no matter what. We have never wated are needed anything that my dad did not get us. He made it really hard on our husbands because they will never live up to the man we call DAD. I am so greateful for the love he has shown me and for the lessons him and my mom taught me in life! The have shown me how to love, how to handle situations and how to never take anything for granted. This blog can not even explaine a tenth of how much i love him but my sisters blog says it all! She did so good and hit the hammer right on the nail with how she explained him! We love you so much daddy!

I love you dad!

Oh Boy!!! Today me and Dustin got to have a little fun and watch Jake!! He is so cute and fun that we are tired from laughing and giggiling at all his funny faces that he makes at us. We started the day off by playing with a tea set that makes lots of noise! Then we made our way over to the pink bouncy cow. Jake really enjoyed it until that silly cow started to buck. But hes a true cowboy because he got right back on and showed that cow who was BOSS!!

After we got tired of the cow we let Riley and Honeybun in to play. Jake loved the dogs and he was so good with them! We had a great time and we love him so much!! He makes me and dustin look forward to our little man playing around here!

Yesterday we got out new toy home and we started to work! I thought i would share one of our sons first monogrammed items!!

I have been a bad patient today and have spent alot of time out of bed today! I desperatly need some fresh air. I love to walk ouside my house and check on my beautiful flowers that were planted last year. I am going to be just like my dad and be so obsessed with flowers that im going to go broke but i will have amzing flower beds! Ha, i know they miss me watering them daily because my husband is not so great at it!!! I just thought i wouls share this photo because it makes me happy and hopefully it will strike a smile in someone else as well.

Today i woke up having very small contractions... i wonder if Canyon knows that he consumes my every though he does not need to make himself know every single morning with either nausea

or contractions! Ha , so i am begining to wish that he was in his own bed and not inside my tummy..i cant wait to see my little man! Oh i love him so very much.

I also woke up this morning to the smell of rain. It has rained all night and its been amazing and i hope it continues through out the day. The only down fall about the rain is if it thunders i have to listen to my scaredy cat DOGS bark like crazy because not only are they afraid of the dark, they are also afraid of loud noises and lightening. Hilarious!

I am about to disobey the doctor and get out of the house for a bit and go get my monogramming machine! I am so excited to start learning how to run it and most moms put their childs name on the inside tag of the shirt but not me... no one will forget Canyons name because it will be posted in real big cute lettering acrosss his back or chest in every outfit! Funny i know but im just an excited proud momma to be. Can you blame me? I have been through it all and cant wait for the blessing that comes at the end of this all and just keeps comming!!

Love

So, here i am!!! I just found out how to do this so i have alot of catching up to do. I thought this picture would be perfect for my blog today because i am having a terrible day. I am having them more frequently now a days (hopefully due to the pregnancy hormones and dreaded bed rest, kinda gets a girl down.) On my bad days these are the people i turn to to make me happy again! My mom is amazing and i love her so much.. she has been gone from me on and off for weeks and i miss her being here on a day to day basis, but i do understand that im not the only person who needs her in this world. Holly is here and she really does try to make things better and i appreciate her for that. Shes a great sister and she makes beautiful babies! Her boys are so cute and can make any day brighter... but being on bed rest i dont get out much to see my Jake and im sad! Sarah is my cookie and always trys to make things seem better than they really are. It often gets her in trouble with me but she trys! Hannah is my heart and shes so helpful but shes off playing at the park with mom and dad. Gracie is so stinkin cute and sweet.. makes me sad that i dont get to see her smiling face daily!! i know im not supposed to be but i am very jelous of each of them because they all see eachother often...and i am here stuck with my husband! Ha

So, let me just say that bed rest sucks!!! I try not to be negative because i love this little baby growing inside of me and i want him to take his time and get big and healthy befor he makes his apperance but i am having a hard time just waiting! I am extremly impatient and emotional on a regular basis just inagine how it is now!! My poor family has to put up with my every emotion wich is mostly crying. And i am not one to just cry a little when i cry i cry like a big baby wikth the convulsions and all its getting rediculous! Oh and i own a baby boutique that is completely being neglected due to all the drama i always have going on in my life. I always wonder if anyone elses life is as dramatic as mine or if i just bring it on myself???

On the brighter side of life... You guessed it... Im having a baby!!! His name will be Canyon Scott and he is due September 28. I am so excited not only to get out of the house next week but i get to finally see what my little baby looks like!! For the last 6 months he is this amazing baby that i do love but he has no face and i bet he is tired of me not knowing what he looks like! I just hope that he is as cute as my niece and nephews. I will write tomarrow telling about more but i dont want to overwhelm my MANY READERS with a book just because im bored! ha ha
