Yes, I'm Josiah's mother

So, yeah I was showing Cisco and Gabo my last post last night, when they both started cracking up. They were like, "The song goes, 'Worthy is the LAMB', not Worthy is the MAN!" So...there you go. I just let the whole world know where Josiah gets it from! :)

Oh, the things kids say!

I just had to share this, cause I was laughing hysterically and actually crying I was laughing so hard! So I turned some Christmas music on today cause I'm decorating and getting in the "Christmas Spirit". :) And the song "Agnus Dei" came on, you know the one that says "Worthy is the Man" like a hundred times. Well, at the end of the song, Josiah comes in the kitchen, where I was making dinner, and goes, "Mom, why does she keep saying 'Wall-E is the Man?'" I lost it, and for those of you who don't know, Wall-e is the new Pixar movie that just came out about a little robot. It's Josiah's favorite right now. Anyway, hope it was as funny for you as it was for me! :)

It's a BOY!!

Well, it looks like Cisco's keepin with the family trad. of 3 boys! :) We both really felt like it was another boy, and the lady could tell right away what it was. She triple-checked, just to make sure it wasn't the umbilical cord or anything, but it was really obvious it was a "he". The place we went to was beautiful and we had a wonderful experience. I wish everyone lived down here so they could get an ultrasound at this place! We payed for the "gender scan", which is basically a 10-min. scan in 2-D to see what you're having. They also have 3-D and 4-D packages, which are great to do when you're farther along, but are like triple the price. But the lady gave us a few
3-D pics anyway and showed a lot of the ultrasound in 3-D! It was so nice! I started bawling pretty much right away, not from being sad AT ALL, but because it was wonderful to see him. I feel like I fell in love last night. :) He was so sweet in there and of course any feelings of "I hope it's a girl", vanish when you see a beautiful, healthy baby kicking around. I really think I want to save up for the 3-D/4-D ultrasound, cause this was the best ultrasound I'd ever experienced. At the doctor one they are so consumed with looking at the brain and bladder, they can't and don't tell you what they're seeing. But with this, all they do is tell you exactly where everything is and what you're looking at, so you're able to actually see and enjoy it. So...Yippee and Yay for boys!!

P.S ~ ok, I know the 3-D looks a little alien-ish, but you can clearly see his arm and little fingers, which is pretty cool!

Tomorrow's the BIG DAY!

That's right, we find out tomorrow what we are having! While most people think (or hope) we're having a girl, I lean more toward another boy. So we shall see, tomorrow the mystery will be solved! :) Stay tuned for the final verdict...

Home, Blessed Home!

Wow, didn't realize it's been a MONTH since I've posted anything! I'll try to stay more on top of this, I promise. That is, if anyone still reads this! :) So, we went to Puerto Rico for 10 days and I thought I'd post some pictures from that. We had a nice time, the boys had a blast going to the beach and hiking through jungle-like backyards. Fun times, though I'm very glad to be home. Now the fun part of jet-lag and getting back on California time...

We had another appointment this morning and got to hear the baby's heartbeat. It took the doctor awhile to find it, which is always a little nerve-wracking, but there it was! Josiah and Daniel were with us and Josiah keeps telling everyone that he heard "the baby's feet" this morning! :) I guess "beat" and "feet" rhyme, so I'm thinking that's where that came from. Ha ha!

Daniel was less than impressed and didn't have a clue what was happening.

As you can see from the photo, my stomach is, needless to say, HUGE. I look more like 35 weeks pregnant, not 13. Makes me a little worried....

The other photo (the jungle looking ones) were taken in Cisco's uncle's BACKYARD. Yes, that's right. Talk about amazing!

First Appointment

Okay, so our internet was out of commission for the last 2 weeks! Ugh! But all is well now, so we'll be able to blog again! :) We had our first appointment about the time our internet stopped working. We got to see the baby for about 3 seconds, it was the shortest ultrasound ever! But all looks well so far and at least we saw it was there. We'll hopefully find out what we're having somewhere in the first week of December. There's a new place in Murrieta that does the 4-D ultrasounds for about $50 and they can tell what you're having at 15 weeks!
I've been feeling much better lately, still tired, but the nausea has subsided thank God! I'm sure due to everyone's prayers, I was a little worried about our trip to Puerto Rico and me feeling like I was going to puke the whole time! So, I'm excited about going again, we leave in a little more than week and a half. Can't believe we're going!

Sick

Well, doesn't look like I'll be having another "Daniel" pregnancy. :( The morning sickness has struck, which is actually more like all day and all night sickness. Boo hoo. Looks like I'm actually having a "real" pregnancy this time around!
