Hurricane!

Well the hurricane caught us a bit of guard...which you wouldn't think because if we had been listening to the weather station, and the years of counsel that has come from our Prophet we would have been better prepared! We that in mind, blessed are we. Though we did loose power for about ten days and lost all the food we had in the refrigerator, my sister had power two days later and a gas stove that didn't need electricity so we packed our bags and stayed there for a week. Thank goodness for family! Thank you for all those who called us and prayed for our well being.

I am 8 months and I can walk!! ....I am two months and I don't sleep!!!

Caden has started walking and is so proud of himself as he takes those wonderful steps, but then he tries to run and falls.
Caden amazes me! Sitting in the middle of the floor all of the sudden he gets up and stands there with a smile on his face, then he takes those steps and mommy and daddy CHEER! but wait, slow down, you are only 8 months.

And Gabriela, mom gets absolutely no sleep at night. A couple of nights ago I wake up (shortly after my last wake up) and guess who I hear giggling and laughing at 3 in the morning.
So the next day I try to keep her up a little bit before we put her down for night and I get this look...hmmm I have no idea what side of the family her little attitude comes from.

An Amazing Husband!

It would be almost impossible to keep up the post, be a mom of two wonderful babies and do all of the things that need to get done during the day if it wasn't for a supportive husband and father.

Some moments to remember:

1. When Caden had a blow out, and I kept reassuring Josh that I was coming to help, when really I was trying to find the camera.

2. Daddy and son daily bath time. Who better to put him in the "big bath" than his daddy, but watch out for "old faithful".
3. Daddy's reassuring hand. Caden loves to hold his hand as he starts to fall asleep at night!

Okay lets be honest, without Josh I don't know where we would all be!

JUST KEEP SWIMING!!

One of the greatest joys about being in Texas is being close to my wonderful nephew. Caden seems to enjoy it as well. They have a wondeful time following each other around, snatching things from each other and swiming!

All about Gabriela!

I was born on July 01, 2008 at 5:16 pm. I weighed 7 lbs 5.4 ounces and 20.5 inches. Mom began having contractions at 11 pm the day before and did not sleep all night! After she called the doctor telling him about the pain, he adviced her to stay home for a while that it might be "false labor". At 3 am mom could not take it anymore (neither could daddy) and told the doctor she was coming in!

Okay so there is alot more that happened, like some yelling at my husband and my mom, but hey what I wrote are the most important parts!!

Much has happened!

Okay so the title does not even come close to explaining all that has happened in the last few months. Many people including friends did not know that I was pregnant, well SURPRISE!!!

At the beginning we were not ready to tell anyone about the pregnancy some reasons were valid other not so much. First we wanted to focus all our attention on our amazing son, Caden and wanted to take no attention away from his birth and homecoming. Our family has been amazing Caden is one spoiled boy, he is loved to pieces and beyond.

On July 01, 2008, Caden became a big brother to Gabriela. Gabi is a wonderful addition to our family. Life is for sure busy, but now I am a stay at home mom and loving every minute.
