Logan's first week home....

Well...its been a major change but very good. Shelby and Gracie are adjusting to having someone else take Mommy's attention more than normal, but  they are very sweet to him. Gracie gets bored with him easily and Shelby on the other hand is wanting to hold him all the time. I love having a boy. Its very very different than what Im used to but so special. He is already so spoiled! We went to the doc on Friday and he weighs 6lbs 14oz and 19.5 inches long..growing stronger everyday... Shelby calls him Logan Patrick and Gracie calls him Bubby...We are blessed beyond words..have a great week everyone <3

the cutest lil boy <3

We are thrilled to announce the birth of our baby boy! He is loved so much already and I just can't get over at how much he looks like my dad and brother! He has had a rough start to his life but God is so good and has made him almost healthy enough to go home!! I cant wait to bring him home and have the girls meet him...Logan has truly completed our family and I cant wait to see what joy is in store for our lives with him in it...

A Dad is a person
who is loving and kind,
And often he knows
what you have on your mind.
He's someone who listens,
suggests, and defends.
A dad can be one
of your very best friends!
He's proud of your triumphs,
but when things go wrong,
A dad can be patient
and helpful and strong
In all that you do,
a dad's love plays a part.
There's always a place for him
deep in your heart.
And each year that passes,
you're even more glad,
More grateful and proud
just to call him your dad!
Thank you, Dad...
for listening and caring,
for giving and sharing,
but, especially, for just being you!
Happy Father's Day

So on Wednesday I went into early labor...I felt ok that morning but as the day went on the worse I felt. Around 8ish that night I was too uncomfortable to not get checked out. I dilated 1cm and am 50% effaced. I had to have 2 rounds of shots to stop the labor and then they made me take 2 muscle relaxers before I went home =/ lets just say we got home around midnight and I didnt really wake up until 130 the next day. NOT how I wanted to spend my days off but me and Logan are good now and thats what matters. I have a great husband who has pretty much taken over all of my wifely motherly duties I cant physically do. Thank God for him...On Saturday we went to the waterpark in Temple with my dad and took the girls. Gracie baby cried at first but not long after she was literally running all over the place. We will go often! Shelby loved it of course and Im sure my dad was wishing he would have worn his swim suit so he could have joined us! Later that evening we went to my Grandma Vance's house and had dinner with my Auntie Sarah, Cipriano,lil stud Jack,Uncle Adam,Uncle Mark and his fiance,my dad and of course the grandparents. Today after I got off work we went back over to my grandparents for a Memorial Day BBQ. My grandma makes THE best brisket! We had a great time but Im totally exhausted so Ive laid on the couch all evening and napped for a good hour while Gracie was snoozing and Joe and Shelby went to the store...much needed. I know I need to keep off my feet as much as possible so I dont have to be put on bed rest. Just keep praying for our growing family...this belly of mine is so huge I really dont know how in the world it will ever get bigger lol. God takes the best care of us and Im so thankful. I hear soooo much bad day in and day out it makes me appreciate so much. Im about to start the countdown til Logan gets here soon...I go to the doc on Fri and we'll decide!!! Have a great week and God Bless!! ***(I have no pics to share this time but I will in the future)

I can't believe Gracie baby is a year old already! She has truly brought our family more joy than I ever thought possible! I love you Gracie Nicole and Happy 1st Birthday!(Ill post more pics soon)
