29 week check up

I had a 3rd sonogram at my 29 week check up and found out that Bella has lots of hair and I saw she has big chip monk cheeks which I can't wait to kiss on. Everything looks good with her she is 3lbs. and 15 inches. right now and she is measuring big because she is breech but hopefully she will turn. Well I don't know if it matters with a c-section but if my Dr. was concerned he didn't let me know. During the sonogram I saw her yawn and it was the coolest thing ever but she was tired and wanted to be left alone so we got some good profile pictures and made sure she is still a girl which she is so all is good this month.

It's a Girl

We are having a girl and her name will be Izabella Olegaria Grijalva but we will call her Bella for short. Zander was the one who picked out that name. When he was two he told me that he had a baby in his belly and he named her Bella and he fed her cake so since then (2007) I feel in love with the name Izabella. I had always liked that name and it was a name that I had set aside since high school for if I ever had a girl I would love to name her that so we decided to go with it. A lot of people keep asking me is it from the Twilight book and I get a little annoyed at that to the point that I even thought about not naming her that but we just love it so much on the plus side it is my grandmothers name on my dad's side (not spelled the same) and the middle named we picked Olegaria was in tribute to my grandmother on my mom side and it all flows very well together we thought. I am so excited to be having a girl. I never thought at this point in my life I would want a girl but after seeing my best friend with her baby girl and how sweet and there are together it just made me really want that for myself so thanks Kelley and Kynli. It would also be nice to not be the only girl anymore with the three boys at home (Gabe, Zander, and maverick) stinking it up and play fighting all the time. I would like to have someone to dress up and be a little girlie with (even thought I am not much girlie myself)but I can live though her. All is well with all the Dr. appointments but I do have low iron so I have to take iron pills now but Bella and I are doing well.

Baby # 2

I went to the Dr. office yesterday and they confirmed what I thought which is that I am pregnant. I am 7 weeks right now and the baby's due date is October 6th, but with me having a c-section that date probably won't be the day we deliver. I am so excited and nervous at the same time. Doing this all over again after 5 years is crazy but also good because zander is old enough to play by himself and help me out with the baby. I hope all goes well with this baby and I will keep you updated on my progress.

September

Went to my 10 year high school reunion. Class of 99 from South Grand Prairie. It was great to see everyone and catch up with old buddies. I drank a little to much on Friday so on Saturday I did not drink that much. I am so tired of all the rain from this weekend. Along with all the reunion stuff I did this weekend I also had two birthday parties to take my son to. This month is going to be crazy for me. I have another b-day party to take Zander to along with a wedding shower for my co-worker. The following weekend some friends and I are throwing a baby shower for Kelley. No rest for me over the next couple of months. I hope I can get everything ready and done in time.

June

Things have been quite this month. We haven't done much but hang out with friends and see some cool movies like The Hangover which was an awesome movie. I laughed so hard through that whole movie. Father's day went well just hanging out at my brothers house and visiting with family. The cake was a torn up but still a good tasting cake. At this point we are just looking forward to going to Port A and hanging out on the beach with friends.

Zander's 4th Birthday

We had Zander's 4th b-day at Chuck E Cheese this year. We had so much fun. The cake was amazing and Zander loved it. While eating the cake a storm came threw and it looked so bad, but we were all inside so we didn't worry about it much. After the storm cleared we headed back to our place so Zander could open his gifts and the adult could eat some food. Everyone stayed to watch the fight that was on that night which was cool. Zander got so many cool gift this year. I am so glad that my family was there. It was a bad week for my friends most were sick or out of town and Zander just wanted to play with his friends so he didn't mind and the party was fun.
