its been so long!!

well this little guy is the reason i have been so busy to blog! i love love love being a mommy and want to share a few of our fun moments with Canyon! i will post pictures with little captions a get back to blogging soon!

sleepy in love

My poor little guy has his days and nights mixed up! okay poor me!!!! Im so sleepy but i can handle it! I tried to keep him awake for a while today to maybe switch the pattern but it just broke my heart to see this sleepy sleepy boy in my arms crying because me and his daddy were picking on him. So instead of continuing to try to pry his little eyes open i let him sleep, and now i am tired and he is ready to eat and listen to someone talk to him. I am tired but i am just in awe and so amazed at his innocence to be upset! Maybe it would be easier to switch myself to his schedule! ha ha Well i do have to report that i am getting better at changing his diaper and he has not peed in his face today! We did have a close call but i caught it in time that it just got in his hair, on his back and his belly! Hopefully one day we can just make it in the diaper! I love my life!!!

I never truely loved till i saw this babys face! I love my family and i love my husband but this thing i feel is just different! I now know an unconditional type of love. I now know how my parents feel. This little boy could never do anything to change my feelings for him EVER!
He is my world, my heart and my little boy. I am so blessed to have him in my life and i feel bad for those that dont get to see him every day! He makes my heart smile and my eyes water with overwhelmning joy every time i look at him. It may be the hormones or just the greatfulness i feel inside that makes me cry tears of joy daily. Everyday i pray, and thank God for placing Canyon in mine and Dustins life. My world has change and now things are put into a happier perspective! I will never look back and wish things had turned out differently. My only regret is waiting this long to meet the man that would change my heart! But God had perfect timing to place little C in my life when he did! I am looking forward to growing, laughing and learning with my new little heart living on the outside of me! Its weird to see your heart in the hands ofsomeone you barely even know but love so much that nothing else mastters! I love my life, my family and i love you Canyon!!!

love,

me

im blessed

i am the luckiest girl alive!! (today) well i am out of the hospital and i have been staying at my moms house. she is the most amazing person i have ever met and i love her so much! She has been such a blessing in my life, she has taken care of me and kept me company and made me realize that i am never alone.. shes always right there beside me. I love you mom, you have truely helped me more than you know and i love you so much! Thanks for putting up with me and helping me through this hard time in my life!

Also my sister sarah came into town and her daughter has made my weekend!!! I get very lonely on bed rest but i had the best company ever this weekend. Gracie crawled up in bed with me every day this weekend and stayed right by my side for HOURS watchin our favorite cartoons! Shes so sweet and i enjoyed her company.

This maybe my last weekend pregnant!! Wahooo im so excited but there is still alot to do. One thing that i checked off the list today was pictures. I wanted to have a few pictures taken of me and Dustin as a couple for the last time before the new adition arrives. Sarah got some really good shots and i am excited to put those in Canyons scrap book.

Even though i spent 98% of the weekend in bed i had an amazing weekend with my wonderful family, and i appreciate all of yall and love you very much!

lovely weekend

so this weekend was my one year anniversary!! oh my gosh i can not seriously believe we made it this far!! he got me a beautiful necklace, an apple tv and a gift card for pretty panties! I'm guessing my pregnant panties are not doing the trick for him! well i got him an xm radio and took him to the Hilton for a night without barking dogs! it was very interesting! i have never been one that anyone has called SEXY, but hey a girls got to try! i put on this cute little outfit ( don't forget I'm 8 months pregnant) and tried to prance around looking somewhat sexy... ha well i tried to take a sexy bite of a strawberry covered in red syrup stuff from the top of a cheese cake and as it was falling off the pop sickle stick and rolling onto my chin, down my neck and all over my outfit i then realized that I'm just not that kind of girl!! I'm more sporty spice NOT sexy spice!! ha ha it was so stinking funny and a little embarrassing! ha ha maybe one day ill take a lesson in how to eat a strawberry to turn a guy on but i very seriously doubt it will be as funny!

Today my mom is going to my sister without me once again! Oh i am so sad but am looking forward to them getting me some great things from market! I hope they have fun! Love ya'll!
