The results are in...

Well, on Thursday, we found out what we're having.... It's a boy. I don't know what else to say. When I get over it, I'll post the pics of the ultrasound. I'm still in denial....

By the way, here are some things NOT to say to me right now, especially in an effort to comfort me:
"Are you okay?"
- How do you feel when someone asks you if you're okay? Usually no matter how I feel it makes me cry, so yes I'm okay, and please don't ask! :)

"Boys are fun!"
-For one, I already know how fun boys are.....I ALREADY HAVE ONE!
-For two, is that supposed to make me think that girls are NOT fun??? Yeah, don't even try to tell me that it's not fun painting your little girl's nails, or curling her hair.....

"Another boy will be good because Logan and the boy can play together!"
-So what, he wouldn't play with a little sister??? And don't you think there will be more fighting with two boys rather than a boy and a girl? Come on now, I have brothers, and they fought way more than the sisters did.

"Just think about how cute Logan and his little brother will be!"
-Okay, I already had a super cute boy, and honestly I'm a little concerned that this boy might not be as cute as Logan....But still, I'm his mom and I'm sure I will be thrilled when he comes.

Pretty much just don't say anything right now! :) Just kidding! I am honestly happy that the baby is healthy right now and even though it's a boy, I know I will love him as much as I love Logan. I'm not going to lie, I wanted to have a girl the first time, and I wanted a girl this time. I am starting to think that I will NEVER have a girl. That's just my gut feeling, and it makes me sad, but I guess Heavenly Father knows what's best. I have learned a few things from this experience.....It's that I should listen to the spirit's promptings more, and trust them to be right, instead of doubting. Because I knew from the beginning that this baby was a boy, and I felt very strongly about it for a long time, up until this last month....But really all that happened was I tried to convince myself that I'm just crazy and didn't have a feeling that this baby was a boy, so I was doubting it and thinking that there was still hope it was a girl. Well let me tell you, I am definitely going to try harder to listen to my feelings and not doubt when I get a prompting from the Spirit. I know all of this sounds really lame, but I really think this was a learning experience for me. And just for the record I AM FINE!!!!!!! I am happy that it's a boy, and healthy. And I honestly just can't wait until he's out of me!

Memorial Day!!!

Yesterday was Memorial Day! Brian had the day off and we all spent the day together. It was sooo much fun! We started the day off with the Veggie Tales movie The Pirates who don't do anything, but Logan got a little restless during that, and neither Brian or I were into the movie either, so we left. Then we tried some shoes on Logan at the mall and headed to the Phoenix Zoo. Brian and Travis went to a D-Backs game a few weeks ago and they got free tickets to the zoo with their baseball tickets! So we used those tickets and had sooo much fun at the zoo! I think Logan learned probably 10 new animal words! He is so smart, and picked up almost every new animal! His favorite ones were the giraffe, zebra, and the elephant. Or at least that's what I think! Then we went to my parent's house for a family barbecue! Travis, Emily, Carson, Tyson, Kollin, Trina, and my Mom and Dad were there! It was so much fun! We had such a fun day, and the weather was sooo perfect! I want to give a shout out for the people who fought for our country and for our freedom, and specifically my Dad, both of Brian's Grandpas and of course the troops that are fighting in Iraq right now, Trent (My little Brother) and John (My Brother-in-law). We are so thankful for all that you guys stand for and do to protect our liberty and land. I love my family and I'm so thankful for the wonderful Memorial Day we had!

Play date with Logan's girlfriend!

For the past 2 weeks in a row I have tried to do more things with Logan and other kids his age. I am lucky to have wonderful friends with kids his age! So for the past 2 weeks me and my beautiful friend Chelsey Howard took our kids, Logan, Shea and Lily to Barro's Pizza for lunch. I know that doesn't sound like much of a play date, but there's a play area for the kids there in the restaurant and they just love it! Logan and Shea play together really well and so I took a picture on my phone because they are just too cute! We plan on doing this all summer! Yeah!!! It's also a play date for me, because I just love Chelsey. She's one of my best friends that I have made out here in QC and I'm so glad our kids like each other too! The first time we went to Barro's Logan and Shea gave each other hugs and kisses when they parted! Logan cried too! So anyway, hopefully I'll get better pics soon, but this will have to do for now!

Logan got a haircut!

Last week, okay maybe 2 weeks ago, Logan got a haircut! Wow! time flies be sooo fast! Anyway, I took him to my friend, Sara's house and she cut his hair. He was such a good boy and just stood there super still and didn't cry at all! He cried when we left, of course! It's so cute, just a trim, but if you look at the older pics like his playdate with Carson you can see the difference! I promise, he actually got a lot cut off! Anyway, here is his new do! The second picture he is wearing his new shirt that Grandma Grover bought for his birthday which is coming up! It's one of many, but we had to save some for him to open on his birthday! Thanks Grandma Grover! We love you!

Logan's new hat!

The last time we were in San Diego Grandma Davis bought Logan this adorable beanie and here are the pictures! He absolutely loves it! It says "surfer baby" on it! He can put it on all by himself and then he shows me and says, "Mama, hat!!!" Thanks Grandma Davis! We love you!

Mother's Day!!!

Okay, so I know this is a little late, but better late than never right?? I ran out of batteries for my camera too, so that's also why. Anyway, I had the best Mother's day this year! Brian made a super yummy breakfast for me, and he also made this picture for me! He used a picture of the baby's ultrasound from like 7 weeks, and had Logan draw a picture for me! He totally came up with the whole idea all by himself, and I just love it! He was so cute when he gave it to me because he was so excited about it! I love Brian soooo much, and I'm so proud to be the mother of his children! Here's pics of the picture he gave me!

And now, I just want to say a few things about mothers. I have been sooo blessed to have 2 wonderful mothers! My mom and Brian's mom. I love my mom so much and I can't believe that she didn't just beat me when I was a kid! I was a brat. And my mother-in-law is the best mom in law ever! I couldn't have asked for a more loving mom in law! She's always there for us, and is actually more interested in our things than my own mom is! :) Mothers are amazing, and it is such a blessing to be one right now. I love Logan sooo much, and he is seriously the best son I could ask for. (And of course the cutest!) I am just so thankful for mothers and to be one! I hope you all are too!

2 More Weeks!!!!!

We find out what we're having in 2 more weeks! I'm soooo anxious and excited all at the same time! I just can't wait to see the ultrasound of the baby, and see how it's doing. It just makes you feel so much more reassured and comforted about the whole pregnancy. I can't wait!!!!!! And also, I have decided that I have NO IDEA what we're having anymore. I really felt like it was a boy for the first 3 months, but now I don't have that strong feeling anymore. I haven't had that feeling for about a month or so now. So who knows. I absolutely LOVE surprises, so this is also why I am so excited to do the ultrasound! Last time when I had Logan, I knew 150% that I was having a boy. Like I wasn't surprised at all when they confirmed that he was a boy. But this time, I really don't know anymore! So anyway, I just wanted to share with all of you how stinkin excited I am to do the ultrasound in 2 more weeks! YEAHHH!!!!!!!

Play day!

This week has been so much fun! I decided I should try to be a good mom at least a few days this week, and actually do something productive with Logan. So on Wednesday me and Logan went swimming with Carson, Travis and Emily!




We had so much fun with them, as always, and after we went swimming we went to my parents house to hang out.....which turned into us all eating dinner there (Thanks Mom!) and of course, me and Emily had to get the camera out and actually take some pics of Logan and Carson playing together. It was cute. Logan kept trying to pick up Carson and hug him, and then Logan would lay down and Carson would roll over and start attacking him....which Logan is still a little unsure of! :) We had such a fun day! Here's a picture of Logan trying to attack Carson, and then Carson trying to attack Logan! They are going to be BEST BUDDIES!!!!! Look how scared Logan is when Carson's trying to play with him! It's so funny!

Weekly Update

5/4/08
I feel like this week went by pretty fast! I went into town every day, except for today of course. But seriously, here's my exciting week in a nutshell: Monday I went out to lunch with my good friend Melissa and her 2 kids Brookelynn and Johnathan. Brookie is about 5 months older than Logan, and they LOVED each other. They had so much fun sitting by each other and talking and flirting. Logan even tried to kiss her! It was way fun! Tuesday I went to the post office, which is 20 minutes away to mail an important document, but they I found out at the end of the week that they still didn't get it...just my luck! Wednesday I went to my doctor's appointment and then went to lunch at Oregano's with Travis, Emily, Carson, and Logan! It was seriously soooooo much fun! The food was amazing and Logan was good the WHOLE time (which doesn't happen very much anymore). I had such a good time. Thursday I had to meet Brian in town for lunch because he ran out of money! So I had to bring him some cash and we had lunch together. On Friday we had to go to court, and Emily and my mom watched Logan for us. They are sooo amazing, and I am so lucky to have them here! Friday night Brian went to the Dbacks game with Travis, and me and Emily went to see Made of Honor. It was awesome, because Logan was awake the whole time, and didn't make a peep! He got a little restless towards the end, probably due to the cherry coke, but he still was awesome. Saturday I helped my friends with a baby shower and then our street had a block party last night. It was actually really fun! This whole week was really fun, but now I'm excited to stay home for most of next week!

Logan's moment of the week: Yesterday I was taking a nap and Brian was supposed to be watching him. Well, Brian fell asleep and then came into my room and asked if we could trade (I watch Logan and he takes a nap). I said that was fine, then Logan came running in with his legs, arms, face and clothes painted in Pink and Black. I looked at him, and then Brian, and Brian says "Oh yeah, Logan got into something." I asked, "Did you clean it up?" Brian responds, "No, there wasn't any mess." So I go scrub off the craft paint on Logan in the tub for about 20 minutes, and then I go to find the mess that didn't exist..... Oh yes, there was a mess. Logan decided to repaint the futon and himself with my pink and black craft paint. Yeah, fun fun fun. I should have taken a picture, but I was still a little mad at Brian. Oh well. I'm sure it would have happened to me too..... well maybe. :)
