Our *Little*Angel*

I have SOOO much to catch up on and I don't really have the time but I wanted to share a couple photos of our beautiful angel. I really think we have the prettiest and cutest little girl. We are so blessed! I really wanted to share these pictures the most. Leyna is 3 days old, but she smiles! Like REAL smiles. It is the cutest thing!

Going home. She loved the car ride, as long as the car was moving. She just looked ouside at first and then fell asleep.

Juan is such a GREAT Daddy! He is so cute with her.

Well I have to go feed my crying baby girl... =)

Leyna Camille Figueroa

She's Here!!!

Catch up time

Today I went to the doctor's and I have dilated a little more. I'm between a 1 and 2. I am about 85% effaced. My feet and ankles were so swollen when I went in. I have "cankles" (where your ankles and calves are like one) =). He asked if I've been taking breaks through out the day and putting my feet up and I said NO. I have been running around crazy trying to get everything done. So when I got home I made myself sit down and put my feet up. So I figured this would be a good time for me to do all my catch up posts. There is a lot of stuff so I hope you all don't get bored...


Here's a picture just for fun of me and my friend with our prego bellies from yesterday (tuesday). I love pictures like this.

Baby Shower #2

My sisters, mom and Ann Herman put together an awesome baby shower! Thank you everyone who came. It was a lot of fun! Thank you to Brooke especially since she did so much to make it perfect! Here's some pictures of all the hard work they put in and of all the fun we had...

There was a full house...kinda cramped, sorry everyone.

All my favorites! Chocolate strawberries, brownies, and cheese cake (which Brooke made, and was delicious).

Do I really have to smell, touch and inspect the diapers? Eeww!!!

I love being pregnant at the same time as so many other women. I think there were 6 big belly pregnant women there at the shower. Here's three of them all in a row.

Whats a Baby Shower without babies? There were so many cute lil babies there!

I got so many great gifts. I felt like I was opening gifts forever. Lots of adorable outfits! She is gonna look so cute! Can't wait to see her in everything...

Perfect ending to a perfect night...Juan came at the end and brought me beautiful pink roses and then loaded ALL the stuff into the car. What a great husband!!! He's gonna be a great dad too!

Maternity Photos

Brooke is trying to get into photography and I got to be a lucky one for her to practice on. She took some amazing maternity pictures. You wouldn't ever guess she hasn't been doing it for a while. Thank you Brooke. They are so awesome!

Here's a couple of them

Happy Birthday to ME!!!

I turned 23 on April 13th. It was a fun birthday. On Saturday My whole family went out to a Tepenyaki (I don't know how you spell it) Restaurant, Japanese food where they cook in front of you. I love those places! They are so much fun! If you haven't been to one before I would totally suggest it. Way worth the money.

The cook made the rice into a heart and put a candle in it and everyone sang to ME!

Alaura didn't like all the noise the cook made with the utensils or the fire. Caiden thought it was pretty cool though. Last year we went to the same restaurant and it was the complete opposite. Caiden was so scared and Alaura liked it. Funny how things change...

A volcano made from an onion.

Isn't she so cute! Trying to use chop sticks...

The cook puts the rice in a bowl and throws it to you and it lands right in your hand. It's so coo!

The girls, minus Courtney, who decided not to go at the last minute. Missed you Courtney, you really missed out.

The whole family (minus Courtney) with nice full bellies after dinner. Thank you everyone for coming and sharing the fun with me on my birthday. Love you guys!

More Birthday Fun!

On my birthday we went to my parents house and they made me a delicious dinner. Then we tried making chocolate molten cakes (like they have @ Chili's). They didn't look so pretty, but they tasted very good! Thank you everyone for everything!

I got lots of pretty maternity clothes for my birthday and something cute for Leyna.
