WOW!
I have just been thinking this past week all that I have to be thankful for. And I feel so BLESSED because the list goes on and on!
I am thankful for a 14 year old boy who gave my Best Friend the gift of life through organ donation.
I am thankful for Morgan's family that has been so supportive during this time. I know there are so many things in life we could choose to let get to us but with their love and support I have kept above the wake!
I am thankful for my family that has given me SO much! Provided a roof over my head and food for me and my growing belly! For my mom who has taken off from work to be at EVERY doctors appointment and sono!
For my sisters have held me when I have felt alone and who have made me laugh and forget my worries.
I am thankful for my Grandparents. I have enjoyed being back in Canyon and getting to spend extra time with them. Thursdays I eat at Grandma Berta's and Papa Ernest's retirement home. Wednesdays Grandma D and I find a different place to eat around Canyon.
I have been so blessed in my life to have both sets so close!
I am thankful for all my many many friends....near and far!
My Alaskan girls who are in the perfect time zone late nights when I can't sleep.
My Canyon girls who have helped occupy my time while at home and keep me going days I feel down.
And my Military wives those who have walked through a familiar storm and those who just know how it is! They have kept me grounded. They have kept me positive. They have kept me GOING!
My friends who are now MOMMY'S! oh my goodness! these poor girls have endured countless questions and statements of what if? but they too have kept me going and have shown me the way in a very unfamiliar territory. I am grateful for their LOVE, SUPPORT, and ADVICE!
I am thankful for technology that has kept me connected to the other half of my heart!
I am thankful for all the men and women who are away from loved ones to protect this GREAT nation we live in!
Most of all I'm thankful for my amazing HUSBAND! Who has missed so much but given so MUCH more. He is my HERO. He is my LOVE! He is my SOLDIER!
I pray that he too can find as many things to be Thankful for in time that some would allow hardships to get the better of them. I LOVE YOU MORGAN!

It's been a while...
Wow! I guess I have been a lil busy.
To catch up I started a temp job for Randall County Juvenile Probation Center (the Canyon Office). So I am no longer subbing. Subbing was fine but its nice to have set hours and know where I am going each day. Today completes week 3 here and its going well.
I had a doctors appt and a sono since I wrote last. Lil Canales is growing right on schedule. At the sono she weighed 1 pound and 1 ounce. She was sooooo active. Still keeps her hands on or at her lil face. We were able to get a few views of her face while her hands were down. I'll have to share those pics!
My dad went to the Sono. I think he really enjoyed it. He asked several questions and had a big smile on his face through the duration of our time there.
The week following was my monthly doctors appt. it too went well. I gained a pound in the month of October. Guess I wont complain about just one pound. My next OB appt is Dec 5th. Seems like a long ways away but I knows its not.
Time has been passing pretty quickly. Morgan will have been gone 5 months this Monday. I can't believe it. I also can't believe it will be time to find a home in Killeen once again.
Morgan has been doing really well in Afghanistan. He seems to be keeping a positive attitude and for the most part he enjoys his fellow companions. We miss each other very much but I'm so thankful the time is passing quickly for us both. neither of us are struggling with it to much. Of course we have our days but who doesn't.
More on baby Canales. It has been so fun to feel her move. Sometimes I wonder what she is doing in there. My mom and my dad have both felt her move. Wish Morgan could but he will very soon!
