25 weeks and growing






"wow" is all I have to say about how I am feeling these days. Where to start? The boys are growing so fast, they are getting harder and harder to keep up with. Everywhere they go there is a path of destruction right behind them. Michael is obsessed with the toilet! We have found everything from toys to mom's hairbrush inside. He also figured out how to flush it, so who knows how much has actually gone to the fishes!! Gabriel is slowly starting to take off. He is still a little unsteady and takes quite a few spills but he is eager not to give up. If he's down he will get right back up and try again!! My little hero. They both love to blow strawberry's on mommy's tummy and know where the "baby" is. Gabriel knows how to say Grandpa in his own little ways and loves to talk to him on the computer or on the phone. He's a little chatter box and wants you to listen to his every word. The baby is getting bigger as you can see! She moves more and more everyday. I am loving feeling the kicks and punches. No matter where I put my hand she always seems to find it, she is already and amazing baby!! As for daddy and me? Well Jose is busy working now. His school days have been put on hold for now for more training. We are anxiously awaiting the holiday season. We aren't sure where we are going yet, but we are happy to have some time together! I am doing good as well. Loving being a mommy!!

We registered yay!!

As many of you probably know, we didn't register the last time and I see now how helpful it would've been. So I took the liberty of doing it online at Target.com. I think that you are also able to go to the store if you are unfamiliar with the internet (mom, grandma haha!! love you) and they will print it out for you. Keep in mind some of this stuff is more of a wish list than actual getting, and some stuff Jose and I will get (yes the expensive stuff) for her. I wanted to let you all know that our theme this time is Lady Bugs. I saw the bedding and thought that would be perfect for our little girl!! She will soon be the Queen Bee in our household so I guess we will start early. As far as the pregnancy goes all is well. Our appointments have all turned out good with a strong heartbeat, great weight gain (for them maybe) and even fewer stretch marks! hehe! Every week brings new and stronger kicks to the abdomen, more sitting on the bladder at 4:00 in the morning, more punches to the ribs, but more importantly, each week brings us closer to the arrival we have been waiting on for the past 24 weeks now. I am excited to share the joys and experiences with all of you!! Keep checking back pictures of the 24 week belly will soon be posted.
