My first Vlog!

As explained in the video below, I have just not had the time or ability to type blogs anymore, so I decided to do my very first video blog! I am really nervous, so if you are going to comment (which I really would appreciate), please, be nice!! :) Have an awesome day everyone!

And the Chosen One is...

Tio Nando!! Yup, Abner and I decided that the best person to be Kaylee's padrino is her Tio Nando. We had actually made the decision way before Kaylee was even born, but made it official tonight with this picture frame that we created for him. Nando, you are a great person, and we know you will be a great influence and example for Kaylee. You have always taken care of me as your baby/twin sister and I know you will do a great job with Kaylee as well. You have really done well for yourself, you are graduated, a new job, things are looking great for you! We know and trust that you will always be there for Kaylee as you were always there for us, and we know that you will help us lead her to God's path. Thanks for being who you are and thanks for accepting this responsibilty and giving Kaylee the greatest Padrino ever! We love you very much :)

First trip to the ER

We had our first real scare with Kaylee this morning...you see, since late morning Thursday, she has not done poopy :) We tried giving her milicon, manzanilla, sticking a thermometer in her bottom, nothing worked! Now, she's not fussy or crying and she's eating regularly so we weren't overly concerned. However, being that today was Sunday, 3 days without poopy can't be good, especially for a tiny baby, I thought. So I called the only clinic that is open and asked if they would see a baby or if I had to take her to a pediatrician. She asked for Kaylee's symptoms and said that I should "take her to the ER right now! It could be an obstruction and that's very dangerous, take her to the ER now!" So natuarally, I cried a little as I hung up the phone and told Abner we had to take our 44 day old baby to the hospital :( Well, we arrived, and as I looked around I thanked God that Kaylee didn't look as sick as the other people that were in there waiting! Anywho, they attended us fairly quickly, considering the amount of people there. They took some X-Rays and the Dr tried to stimulate her bottom again, but they found nothing wrong with her! Praise God! Dr. said she had gas and there was no "stool buildup" in her tummy, so she was fine. So, I'm releaved and thankful that they didn't find anything, but I'm quite puzzled. I can't help but wonder what is going on inside her little tummy and how come there's no poopy coming out! Oh well, it's all in God's hands, and I will do as the Dr. said and not worry unless she starts being fussy or runs a fever. As long as she still eating and sleeping good, which she is, I will not worry :) Here are some pictures of us in the ER this morning, Happy Sunday!

My Perfect Day!

I never thought someone could be as close to perfect as my husband. I can not say he is perfect, b/c only God is perfect, but he sure is the next closest thing, that's for sure! Why, you may ask? Well, let me tell you about my very best 1st Mother's Day, all made possible by my honey, Abner E. Garza :) It all started Saturday evening as I walked downstairs and was surprised to find a beautiful bouquet of flowers sitting on my kitchen counter with an envelope that said: To the most wonderful mom, Happy 1st Mother's Day. Inside this envelope was a gift certificate for a mani/pedi :) Sunday morning (the real mother's day), he made a delicious breakfast of waffles, eggs and hashbrowns, all my favorites! And ladies, not only did he cook breakfast all by himself, he also cleaned up and washed the dishes, all by himself!! He made sure I was happy and content all day and that I was having the best Mother's day ever :) Thanks babe for everything you did and do for me and Kaylee, you are an amazing husband and father, we are so lucky to have you and we love you very very very much! I hope all the mother's out there had a great a day as I did, b/c we sure do deserve it! Here is a picture of our perfect little family yesterday.

Porn??

Only if your a new mommy! :) My good friend Jenny surprised me with this awesome little book called, Porn for New Moms...it's absolutely adorable! Thanks Jen for being so wonderful and for this awesome book that made me crack up as I know it made others crack up too as they read this blog! Any new mom would definitely appreciate this book, and every new daddy could really learn some good pointers! The inside of this book has pictures of very "sexy" men holding babies quoting things that only new mommys would appreciate; things such as: "So, tell me again, what was the consistency of the poop?" and "Ok, you can hold him for a minute, but I want him right back!" and my favorite one: " No, no! Sit down! I'll do the dishes. After nine and a half months of pregnancy, 26 hours of labor and 18 stitches, you don't have to do a darn thing around here!" This book, along with the pictures and quotes would make any mom feel good, hence the title, Porn for new moms. :)
