That's the beat of the heart!!

So today the 17th of November i finally got to hear the baby's heartbeat. Let's just say that it was an amazing experience. I have been really nervous with this pregnancy..i guess the first time jitters. But anyway today hearing the heartbeat was so special. There really is a baby in there. I can't wait to to hold it..i can't wait to be a mommy. We will find out the sex of the baby right before Christmas..that will be neat too. I am just so grateful for this amazing experience...and for the chance that Heavenly Father is giving us to have one of his children

Jaxson Kane

Well I finally stole pictures from my sister in law's facebook to get pictures of my nephew Jaxson...i felt bad that I didnt have any pictures of him...He is the cutest baby. I seriously just want to squeeze him. He is definitely the apple of his parents eyes, and you can see why. It makes me sad because next time I see him he will probably be walking... time sure does fly. Anyways your auntie loves you Jax

So this past week I have been pretty nauseated and Hector has been gone on a trip out of the country so it has been long, and kind of a downer week. But I have this good friend Christine that decided to help me get flower beds ready to plant mums in for fall. It was a lot of work, but it turned out so cute, and it made me happy. Thank goodness for good friends...

We are going to have a Baby!!!!

We are so excited to say that I am pregnant. I was a little surprised to find out that I was especially since we had only tried for a month. But I am so grateful that Heavenly Father saw fit to not make us wait. I have dreamed of being a wife and mother for my whole life. I have always loved kids, and especially babies. I wondered for a while if I would ever get the chance to be a wife and mother...and now it is happening. Sometimes I cant believe it...in face, it is so shocking to me that I have done 4 pregnancy tests to confirm it...I am a dork I know. Hector is thrilled to...he is just excited to start our family.

After the graduation they had a banquet that was pretty fancy. It was just to honor all of the servicemen and especially those who graduated. It was so much fun to have Hector's parents and sister Edna there.

So as I mentioned Hector was in a NCo academy in San ANtonio for 6 weeks. To say that it was hard is an understatement. It was intense. It counted as 12 college credits and they did it in 6 weeks. But in the end he graduated. It made us so happy. I was so proud of him and it made me proud that my husband is in the air force and that he serves his country.

OK well we have had a busy summer . At the end of July we went down to New Mexico. We drove of course...and I was there for three weeks. Hector was in a NCO academy for the air force in San Antonio for 6 weeks. So it was really nice to spend some time with the family. I loved it so much. The first week I was there we had couzins camp..which is something that my Grandma does every year with her grandkids. And then the next week I went to Ki's and it was so much fun. We took there joiner buggies out and drove all over the place. I love her family. Porter and Payson are just so cute and I really enjoyed playing with them. We also went camping on the Zuni's as a family. WE took the horses up, and had green chili with fried potatoes and tortillas. It was so nice and beautiful up there. I also went to the mountain with my Dad and Katie and her and I moved some cattle. I just really miss the ranch, I miss team roping which we did quite a bit. ANyway I thoroughly enjoyed being there and I can't wait to go back.

So in March of this year I had the lapband surgery..it was kinda a scary thing to do, but I just felt like it was right. It has really gone well...to date I have lost almost 70 pounds. I will never regret doing this. I have had no problems and I am learning to eat right and not feel deprived. It is great. I am so happy that I will have my weight off to start a family. Iguess I am just really blessed and I wanted to share it with all of you.

This are some pics of the last couple of weeks. Hector's son Rhett came out and spent a week with us. We had such a great time with him. He is such a good kid and was so much fun. We did all kinds of things and I think he had a great time too.

These are some picutes that we took since Katie has been here. We were just havign fun!!
