3 weeks left

Hard to believe that in about 3 weeks this huge bump would be gone and in my arms.

Needless to say I feel huge I had never feel so big not with Samia nor with Gamila, everything hurts even to sit...Thank God for Jennifer she has being so much help she would be leaving on Wednesday I still have one whole week alone before Abuela comes not sure how I am going to do it, but I know I will find a way.  It is painful to walk I have so much pelvic pain is ridiculous, but apparently is very normal also because of this being my 3rd pregnancy.


The girls have being playing lots with Charlie I can tell he is more comfortable with SAmia she talks to him and sings to him, while Gamila just likes to stick her face in front of his face kiss him and today I found her sticking a button in his mouth yes very dangerous one more reason why the baby is going to be very very far from her.


Here are a few pictures of the last couple of days around the house.

This was not my idea we found this in a gift shop and Jennifer decided to put in her head and boy did she love it.

Gamila you let Charlie use your chair once in a while and once he is out she go and sit on it right away my territorial girl.

I just love this picture he looks more than precious I actually did this little shirt for him today, I know is not going to last him long but at least he could wear it.

My big girl...funny but I never wear dresses and today when she saw me with this dress the only thing that came out of her mouth was "wow mami you look beautiful"  What can I say this is the sweetest kid I have ever met.

A little scared

Yesterday we had a little scared...yes this baby had to make mami a bit nervous before his arrival.  I spend d the whole day cleaning nenas you will know by the time you read this mami is very anal when it comes to cleaning.  At around noon I started with a headache that would not go away.  Mami has a way of fixing her headache two strong espressos cures her headache always.  I went ahead and took my espressos and nothing at about 3 o'clock I still had it took medicine and nothing.  By now I figure I should call baba and let him know.  Inside me I know that if I call my Dr. she is going to send me to the hospital right away is just the case with me when I am known for having preclampsia.


Baba arrived at around 4 and made me call the Dr.  However inside me I knew it was nothing major for a moment I even though it was just a cold or allergies, I just knew it was not my preclampsia.  Surely enough we called the Dr. and she asked me to go to the hospital.  Is so hard going to the hospital by myself leaving them at home, but with las nenas and no one around there is just no choice.  However on the the way to the hospital Bonnie and I spoke so we can set up encase I had to stay she would help us with las nenas.


Thank God, Dios and Allah it was a false alarm apparently I have sinus and that is causing the headaches.  Finally I came back home...today I have not being feeling that well lots of sleeping apparently is sinus with a cold...whatever it is I can handle as longest the baby stays inside for another 4 weeks.

8 weeks left and more

So nenas there are two things that are have being in my mind and everytime I am going to post about them I forget and then I remember when I am driving or doing something else..so let me say it now

- Nenas sometimes when I am doing the blog and putting pictures I always get this guilty conscious maybe I am putting more pictures of Milo or vice versa is funny is this thought that always plays tricks with my mind.

- Nenas Abuela always mentions to me that sometimes her children have teach her things when we always think is the opposite parents teach their children but that is not always the case and Samia you have showed me that is true.
In our culture or I should say the way we grew up we never said a prayer prior to eating we always thank God when we finish and in baba's family is the same. However living in the south I have notice that many families bless their food prior to eating...Samia since you started school you have started to bless your food and even baba and mami are doing it now is actually a very pretty couple of lines and it goes like this:

A B C

1 2 3

Thank you Lord for feeding me

Amen

Now that I think about it is also right to bless our food before hand and then thank God after the meal.

So needless to say it is cold I think everywhere in the country is cold. Even in Miami is cold I had to remind Nono and Abuela to bring in the orchids since it was going to be very cold the past two nights...I will remember next time I am there to take pictures of their orchids well I should say Nono's I wish I could have them as he does. I have tried several times buying them and they always die that I have really giving up for now.

Since it has being too cold here I have kept the doves inside and the girls have enjoy playing with them, although they are always outside I realize this past weekend that they enjoy being petted....even Gamila that fears every single moving objectis in love with them.

Also one of our mami's at the playgroup mention about putting water outside now that is so cold so they could see how it freezes over night..so the last couple of nights Samia has being so excited about her water experiment like she calls it.

Today one of our friends had her baby boy and it made me realize that I only have 8 weeks left..wow I can not believe it and still have so many things to do.

We have to fix the nursery I think I will start working on it next weekend, hopefully we would buy Milo her big girl bed so she can give her crib to the baby.

I want to make the nursery very simple but colorful finally some bold colors is a boy...

I also feel that I am growing by the minute this belly is so different from the girls.

As far as my crafts I finally finish same set of shoes for the three kids they are so cute whenever baby boy can wear them I will put up pictures...Inshallah.

Almost finish with my crochet blanket I think it would be a wrap tonight after las nenas go down!

Oh yesterday I went to New Orleans all by myself in the morning to do some shopping I got an awesome green leather chair for our room... I will take pictures soon as well I think is going to be a great place to sit down and breastfeed...I can say the girls are getting a kick of it!!!!! I was a bit hesitant about green but I had two very good friends telling me to go for it.....

Funny, silly people

Lately I have being in a funky mood my hormones are out of wack and I am a cry baby literally if you look at me the wrong way I start crying poor baba he comes from work to find a cry baby. I know is the time of the year the pregnancy being alone so much time, but oh well this is life and what can not kill us only makes us stronger. Nenas remember is okey to feel this way we are humans after all and not at all times we are happy and dandy. After having a couple of crying episodes, we decided is good to have Abuela home with us for some days...I can not wait to have her home for 5 days Yippi yippy.



Well it looks like our next stop is New Orleans and very soon....I am glad I miss being in a city...I confirmed it I am not a small town gal this thing of driving 30 minutes in a green pasture to get somewhere is just not my style I need traffic, honks, cement people rudeness I confirmed it.


Okey I am 6.5 months now I have started to buy some stuff for the baby and also sewing I made him a pair of jeans today...I can not believe I will be having a little boy in my arms soon...I can feel him kicking and kicking more often I think he is going to love noise and action between wild Gamila and sweet Samia. Oh nene I think we came out with the name it starts by Z and ends in A like we wanted, I don't really think we are going to change it but for now I am keeping it a secret incase I change my mind I don't want you to know later on in life you had so many choices and mami and baba choose the name you did not like or viceversa.



Gamila now we would talk about you I have to tell you the chancla has being visiting your nalgas very often lately is sad to say buy is the only way I can keep up with your tantrums...Gosh I never knew those existed in such a way, you love to make them anywhere and everywhere is all new to me, but I know you will outgrow them como que me dejo de llamar Anamaria pero esa vaina se te va a quitar aunque se a punto de rejo. Gamila another thing that craks me up about you is that you will ask for something and when you don't get it you start changing your voice making it more hoarse is so funny to watch but I know is not right and it has to be corrected.

Today we also made bread pudding well actually Samia made it, is the first time I ever make and I love it so easy to make and baba loves it since we don't put that much sugar is his favorite dessert he is not too much of a sweet person...Wow I wish I was like him the sweeter it is the better for me...Milo is like me and Samia like baba now we would just wait a few years to see what baby likes.

We have decorated the house for Christmas I am not sure if I am doing my village this year kind of lazy we still have to hang some stuff and since they are not hang look what Samia and Gamila use them for.

Here are a few videos they are so funny is usually what we do after dinner just goof off and be funny people.
