The LaGarde Family

This is the statement that I keep using on poor Chris… He just keeps nodding his head, but I am sure he is getting annoyed…

It seems so surreal that in 4 days we will meet the baby that has been here but not here for 9 long months- its just hard to believe.

Its hard to imagine life with him, and at the same time I know once he is here and once we see him and fall so deep in love with him it will be hard to imagine life without him.

Its funny the things you start to wonder- what will he look like?, will he be like Logan?, will he look like Logan?, will he be a difficult baby?, what if he changes our lives too much?, will Logan feel like he has been replaced?, will Logan sit on him?, will we love him as much as we love Logan?, will we enjoy him and Logan as much now that there will be two??? the list goes on and on…
I feel sad that the life we have now is going to change, at the same time I feel so happy and excited about this journey into the “new” life we are going to have together as a family of 4!

I have a doctors appointment today at 2 so hopefully things will look good and we will just be on schedule to go in on Monday morning.

Thank you all for your prayers and support! And can you believe it, we are going to have a tiny little baby in just 4 days!!!

IN A BOX…

FINALLY!!! I know you poor people!!!

We finally uploaded some new pictures- here are a bunch of silly pictures of Logan…

As most boys do- Logan LOVES boxes, here he is over the last few months in multiple “boxes”… Silly boy…

SUPER LOGAN

We put a “cape” on Logan the other night and he ran around the house for at least an hour, VERY excited with his “super powers” – He has been sleeping with this blanket ever since… He had us laughing so hard, it is so nice to be a happy family.

Once the running was over the “flying” lessons began… I can’t believe how big he is- and soon he will look like a giant!!!

Ready- Set- Go

So Logans most favorite thing to do is run- as you can see above, but what most of you can’t understand is… He loves to say, (in toddler talk) READY… SET… GO… The only word you can understand is Go- the rest is just sounds, BUT he will run for hours if you clap and make a big deal over him running from the kitchen into the living room and back, stopping here and there to say- Ready… set.. go…

Silly Logan…

Here he is just being silly- I LOVE my little man so much- I can’t wait to have another little boy- think of all the things Logan has to teach him (this could be trouble!!!)

We haven’t written in a while – poor Logan!!! We have tons of pictures and stuff to write about, we just haven’t gotten to it… With a baby coming in 6 days, I am starting to panic…

Anyway, Thought I would update you quickly on what is going on with the baby- not much… Two weeks ago when I went into have my Drs apt. my blood pressure was  high and my feet were swollen all the same things I had last time, last week though- my feet were fine, I didn’t gain any weight, and my blood pressure was back to normal

I worked up enough nerve to ask Dr. Saberin- Williams if there was any way she could do my c-section and she said that for me she would be willing to do it before her office hours- how awesome is that??? The only problem was we needed to work it out with the hospital- I think she is wonderful and I have been heart broken that she wasn’t the one doing my c-section… So after a lot of going back and forth, she is doing my c-section on the same day!!! Praise the Lord!!!! I know that for some of you, you think I am a crazy girl, BUT I have been praying for this my entire pregnancy. Dr. Saberin- Williams helped us get pregnant with Logan, and was so wonderful the entire time I was pregnant, I feel so comfortable with her and she makes me happy!!! She is really putting her self out for me so that makes me feel both bad and good- I feel bad cause I hate putting people out- I hate it!!! It makes me feel good because now I know she loves me as much as I love her

Dr. Saberin Williams confirmed my theory that the baby was breach, she said that his little butt is squished down where the head should be, so it seems like he is head down, but he is most defiantly head up… She said it doesn’t matter at all since I am already scheduled to have a c-section So hopefully this means that Grayson will have a perfectly round head and be cute when he is born – hehe

Apparently this little guy is measuring a few weeks behind now- weird-o – so maybe we will have another tiny baby… I have my fingers crossed that we get another little guy- if your going to have a new born I would like for him to be small and stay that way for a little while… Logan was in preemie cloths for a month or so- so that gives me hope- he was also not very attractive cause he was so skinny and scrawny (don’t want that though… wow I’m picky)

So in 6 days we get to meet the newest member of our family- we are very excited, and yet VERY apprehensive…

Come visit us in the hospital we will be sure to post if things change but other wise come see us at Paoli Hospital- we should be there from Monday morning Feb. 4th though Thursday morning Feb 7th… Call either of our cell phones so we know your coming!!! Since we have Logan to take care of I am sure I will be at the hospital by myself a lot so come keep me company…
