Connors Finger

Connor was playing football at his friends Halloween party and came up to me crying cause he hurts his nose. Well his bloody nose turned into his finger being broken as well. It looks like when he was playing he tackled Brody and his finger jammed into his shoes. Just in a matter of 10 minutes his finger went from normal size to the size of a hot dog. 

I ran over to our cousin house where Logan was for a going away party. Grabbed Logan and headed into instacare. They told us we needed to do an x-ray but it was going to take an hour or more cause they had two other people in x-ray for broken ribs. So we waiting and finally got some answers. 

His bottom party of his finger is broken, his first knuckle on the top has a torn/detached tendon and a little tiny bone floating around. 

The doctor at instacare told us that he was going to have to be in a splint for 6 weeks and also needed to go and talk to a orthopedists. 

Connor was such a brave little guy. That night for him it really bugged him. It still bothers him but it just think its cause it is on his right hand and its hard to write in school and pretty much to do anything.

Once we got an appointment for the orthopedists. 

He told us pretty much the same thing. Splint for 4-6 weeks need to come back and check with him every two weeks to make sure everything is on track. If it doesn't get better in the 6 weeks we will need to go to a hand specialist.

So now we just wait and see how this next 6 weeks will go. Brave little dude!

Brody's Halloween Party

Each year a great friend of mine put on a Halloween party for all of the kids and their families. We couldn't miss out even if we had a full day of parties. 

Connor went to school with Brody and has always been close with him. We also had Connor's girlfriend Harbor there. 

The party was so much fun. 

They made trick or treats bags

Played tons of games 

trunk or treating

and ate tons of food! 

Its always great to be able to get out with Connor. But its also good when you go and can hang out with your friends while he hangs out with his! 

Connor as well as i look forward to each year going to Brody Halloween Party. 

Connor and Harbor! 

They will get married if its up to Beth and I

 All the cute kiddos that were at the party

Happy 23rd

Happy 23rd Birthday LOGAN...

I love this man more then he will ever know. I know that life hasn't always been easy for you or i, but being with you makes it that much easier. Just knowing that i have someone who loves me just as much as i love him. 

I really cant picture my life without him in it. Even with all the fighting and arguing. Something about this man just makes me want to hold on to this crazy ride.  

Logan you really are such a great person. I cant even start to let you know how much you mean to Connor and myself. 

You came into my life when i needed someone the most. Not just anyone but when i needed you the most. You have shown me what love is and that i can be happy once again. 

Im so happy to be called your WIFE now. Something about being a Garcia makes it that more amazing! 

I hope your day is filled with amazing smiles and great laughs! 

I cant wait to spend 100 more birthdays with you!

Hunting Trip

Each year Logan goes hunting with his grandpa and brother. 

So this year wasn't any different. 

I swear every man in Logan family went up this time. Logan said it was just great. 

So Friday he was getting things ready and left for the hunt.

Saturday morning i got a call from him freaking out. I was already heading into Salt Lake.

He had forgotten his Deer tag.!!!!

He had already gotten his deer but wasn't able to bring it down till he got his tag. 

So i had to turn around and go home to try and find this tag. Lets just say we got into a fight cause i wasn't fast enough. 

So after looking and looking for the tag i finally found it. I had to drive up to where he was and give him the tag. 

So this year he got his 2nd deer ever. Last year it was a 2x2 and this year it was bigger a 4x4.

He was pretty excited!

He went up at 8:00am and had his deer by 8:30am

talk about luck!!!

Once Logan got home Connor was dying to see his dad and of course his deer. So we headed over to Grandpas and helped dad with his deer. Connor loved it and he cannot wait to go hunting with dad next year! :) Love that Connor and Logan and bound over something that his mamma doesn't like. 

Cornbelly's

While daddy is away, Connor and Mommy will play.

While Logan was out hunting i wanted to do something fun with Connor Mike. All October i have been wanting to take him to a corn maze or somewhere fun!

CORNBELLY'S was just what we needed to do

Saturday morning we woke up and got ready to head to Thanksgiving Point. Us girls wanted to do some shopping so we headed to the mall first and finally we go to Cornbellys

It is such a fun little place. They had everything

Corn Maze

Hay rides

Pig Races

Pumpkin Patch

Jump Houses

Cow tipping

and just about everything!

Connor was in 7th heaven. I swear we could do everything in the amount of day time we had. He wanted to play with everything and get all.

It was such a fun day to be able to hang out with my mom, sister and of course my main man.

We missed Logan, but i love to be able to make a Mommy and Connor date every now and than. Just to make sure that Connor knows how much his mom really loves him!

18 Weeks

What's up with Baby this week? Our little man is the size of a bell pepper, around 5 1/2 inches long and weights almost 7 ounces. He is busy flexing his little arms and legs, movements i'll start noticing more and more. Our babies blood vessels are visible through thin shin. His ears are in their final position.

Symptoms? Some cramping this week. My legs have been going numb when i stand for to long. I am also feeling some pressure down below. My doctor said it was normal is 2nd pregnancy.   

Gender? Little Man

Excited For? Doctor appointment next Monday! Also my 20 week ultrasound. 

Maternity Clothes? I got a few yoga pants that i thought i would be able to wear all pregnancy but they are getting a little tighter on me. My shirts and under shirts are also getting pretty tight. I think im going to have to go and get a few shirts along with a few new bras. 

Sleep? Sleep has been pretty good, I cant seem to get comfy laying on my side so i have been laying on my back. I just read that i shouldn't be laying on my back at this point. So it looks like i have to lay on my side from now on

Movement? He moves more at night time. Some night i can feel him really good but other night i dont feel him at all. I know i should be feeling him more in the next few weeks. Last week i swear i felt him kick my hand. Its by far the best feeling in the world.

Belly Button Status? Still in but i know its going to be flush with the belly soon!!

Missing Anything? Not losing my breath going up and down the stairs. 

Milestones? Feeling little man move a little more. 

Cravings? Just about everything. I really have been wanting soft pretzels. But i cant ever seem to get them!  

Weight Gain? My scale said i have finally gained 1 pound! Yahoo. So now i have only lost 11 pounds! I will know more on Monday! 

17 weeks

What's up with Baby this week?l

Baby is the size of a Turnip. 5oz and about 5in tall.

Their little limbs have nearly reached their proper proportions and will continue to grow evenly with the rest of the body from here on out.They're now becoming capable of hearing and reacting to sounds even though their ears are not yet structurally complete or fully functional.Mind boggling factoid of the week: if you're having going to have a little girl, her ovaries have already produced millions of primordial egg cells, which, within a few weeks, will develop into actual eggs! Phew… just wait till she's a teenager eh?

Symptoms? This week i have felt pretty good. Not cramping so that's a plus!

Gender? Handsome little Man!

Excited For? We go in for out 20 week ultrasound in two weeks, i also think i have finally figured out how i want little mans rooms. So i cant wait to start buying! :)

Maternity Clothes? More like yoga pants, i have two maternity pants but they are way bagging. So i think i will just stick with yoga pants for awhile now. 

Sleep? Its getting a little better. I have to take my sleeping pill each night, but once its in me i fall right to sleep. Then i wake up once or twice to go pee. Im not getting more tired during the day. So when i have no work i take a nap when Connor gets home from school.

Movement? Little tiny movements. Nothing to big just feel like popcorn popping. But i swear one night last week i thought Baby Garcia was doing flips in my belly. I cannot wait till he starts moving more! I love feeling him!

Belly Button Status? Still in

Missing Anything? Having energy, and not being able to cry on a dime. Im sure a boob

Milestones?
Hit the 17w mark

Cravings? Pretzel, not the chip pretzel but the warm kind with the cheese or pizza sauce.  YUM

Weight Gain? I haven't looked at my weight for a while now. But i know im eating a lot more. I always seem to be hungry. So im pretty sure ive gained a little. 

SO SO MUCH!

Each night i take Connor upstairs, read him a bed time story, tuck him into bed and give him a glass of water. I make sure to kiss Connor as much as i can before he tells me to stop it, and i also slowly close the door as a watch my little 5 year old watch his favorite movie.

Each night i feel like i must be doing something right, to be able to tuck my little man into bed, to be able to kiss him good night. Our favorite books to read at night are

I love you So.....

and I'll love you forever. 

Each book really give us a warm feeling inside. As I'm reading these books to him he is laying right next to me. Touching my face or playing with my hair. It just makes me feel like he is loving me just as much as I'm loving him!

"I love you."

 "How much?" 

"SO much." 

"How much is SO?"

 "Way, WAY more than you know."!!!

"I'll love you forever
I'll like you for always
As long as I'm living
My baby you'll be."

Each night as i turn off the TV in Connor's room ,i look to see my sleeping baby and cant help but feel so lucky. I kiss him good night, and take a fast picture cause one day i wont be able to get these little moments. One day my son will be tucking me into bed and kissing me good night! 

I love my little baby boy! 

Im A......

We are excited to announce that we are having a 

LITTLE BABY BOY!!!!!!!

Lukas Paul Garcia Will be joining us on March 22nd.

We cannot wait to meet you little boy.
