Time for an UPDATE

WOW time flies, I cant believe i havent updated this blog in almost a year. Where do I start, well I am no longer preggo and instead I have a beautiful baby boy, Noah, who is 3 months old already. V is the most amazing lil girl ever, she is my best friend. She is such a good girl, I thank God everyday for having her in my life.

Since i last posted I have also moved to a bigger apartment. I am pretty busy during the day but nothing like I anticipated, it is actually much easier than i thought it would be. Like right now, both kids are napping and I am in bed blogging about our day, I never thought this would be possible. Anyway, I am a very blessed person, I have 2 perfect kids, a good husband and the best job in the world.

happy

Heard my babys heartbeat a few times today and yesterday. I am so relieved. Nothing really going on these days, but I feel good, nah I feel great.

11 weeks and counting...

Went to my OB/GYN appt today, it was my first with the doctor who will doing the c-section, she was great. She answered all my questions, then it was time for the doppler...2mins go by...then one more minute and nothing. The silence almost made me cry, I knew it wasnt right, she didnt have a very positive expression either, then she says "looks like you are getting an u/s today". I couldnt even get excited, Leandro and I were beyond freaked by this point, but we kept our head up and off we went. We got there and I couldnt see the screen, I just kept looking at Leandro's face to see if he was happy sad or what..he says "oh there it is" i asked what and he said the heartbeat. I just wanted to grab the screen and turn it towards me, the tech didnt say a thing. Then she started talking and said how all looked well, the BPM was 167 and congratulated us. We were soooooo happy and relieved, because we were just ready for the worst at that point.

On an even happier note, I only gained 3 lbs so far, this might seem a lot for some but for me it is great. At this point in my last pregnancy I had already gained 15 lbs. I am hoping to stick to the diet the nutritionist helped me put together to see if I can gain a max of 25lbs and avoid Gestational Diabetes.

I guess now I can stop worrying for a couple weeks, thanks so much for everyone who kept us in their prayers.

V is 19 months old

I cant believe in only a few more months my baby girl will be 2. It is surreal to me how fast she is growing, and how fast she is becoming independent. We are all so in love with her, she came into our lives to make it colorful and happy, there are no sad days in our house her smile, hugs and kisses just make everything better.

I love you more than anything baby girl, I thank God everyday to have blessed us with someone like you. You are our dream come true, I couldnt have asked for a better daughter and friend. Thanks for giving my life a whole new meaning.

POOP POOP and more POOP

I have been changing about 40 diapers a day. My poor baby has the worst diarhea I have ever dealt with, I am totally clueless as what to do. I decided tomorow she will be on a liquid diet only to see how that goes.

As far as the pregnancy goes, I am a nervous wreck since i got the darn doppler that doesnt pick up a heartbeat. I am afraid I will get to the doctors on wednesday and they will say the baby is no longer there. I did decide to stop worrying, leave it all in God's hand and if I am supposed to have a second child all will be well, if it is not it is because V was meant to be an only child and I am ok with that, I already feel totally blessed to have a perfect child in my life.

I am off to rest some now, tomorow I have to hit up BJs and a few other stores my house has no food or water.

What a day !

I am extremely, no thats not even a good word to describe it, I am beyond extremely tired. Exhausted is not good enough either. I woke up early today, Leandro and I had tons of errands to run. Then at noon I had a mani and pedi done, this was the nice part of the day, after that it was time for the wax, can we say OUCH. When i left the spa I went to the mall, it was probably around 2 o'clock and I just got home now, a little after 8. I never do this, I hate walking around looking for stuff, I usually know what i want to get and go straight for it. But after 6 hours of walking and after getting a nice backache I finally found my dress, sandals and all accesories to go with it. I saw how hard it is to shop when you are preggo but not as far along as you look, it is dreadful. Tomorow i have another crazy day and the party is around 8 and I probably wont get home until 1 or 2 am. It will be nice for Leandro and I to have some time together and have fun with adults, V will be sound asleep in her cozy crib. Off to put my feet up now, they hurt wayy too much.

What a day !
