So many babies being born all around has me making cards ;-)

...here kitty kitty...

Nala has no shame - she lays down in all places baby... so far I've caught her in the maxi cosi (car seat), the babybathtub, and now the crib....

Look at Zane he's loving having Nala hang out with him, and he sure has a death grip on her neck ;-)

Grateful

I am not a huge thanksgiving fan - but I have a great appreciation for the little things in life. I am grateful that I have 2 healthy children and just wanted to say it out loud. I love my children more than life itself and I would be totally devastated if anything were to ever happen to them. I feel so sorry for all the families out there that have sick children and there's nothing they can do for them.

I am grateful - I truly am and I will cherish every moment with my little monsters because you just never know what tomorrow holds. I will go cuddle with them now.... be back soon....

Zane is here

checking into the clinic today

So excited to meet this guy tomorrow ;-)

3 Omens

This is a LO I made after the birth of Phoenix in December 2001 - showing 3 omens that showed up in my life between 1999 and 2000.
The description of the photos are on the tags below the respective photo.

I've been thinking a lot lately about how I felt during my first pregnancy 7 years ago. The biggest memory apart from being super-excited to become a mom was overshadowed by the 911 attacks (I was 6 months pregnant).
This time around I don't feel anything like I did back then - less worry, more relaxed, I am as sick during this one though as I was during the first one. Unable to really eat most days because of the constant nausea I have only gained 7 pounds in 35 weeks. Baby will be here on July 3rd and we can hardly wait to meet the little man.
We are having a really hard time deciding on a name this time around - See my poll on the side bar (Just for fun!).

Baby countdown is on

Wow - time flies doesn't it - in 1 month exactly our new baby boy will be coming into this world. Kepa, Phoenix and I are very excited to meet the new guy, which doesn't have a name yet because we can't agree on any ....

how cool is this - baby preview

I did not have the possibility to have a 3D rendering Ultrasound done while pregnant with Phoenix - this is just so amazing to see so much detail on your unborn baby.

Please visit my FLICKR (my Photos) and YouTube (my Videos)links which can be found on the right navigation/menu bar for more images and videos of the baby at 23 weeks.

just in case you're wondering why ...

...I'm so distracted lately

baby boom

I have been making baby cards for some colleagues at the bank...
