End of May

So it looks like I only posted once in May. Mommy went to Vegas. We all got sick, again. And it's been busy busy. Lots of doctor's appointments for me. I had to go in for the 3 hour glucose test. I'm all good though. I don't have gestational diabetes. A couple of my other tests showed high blood sugar but I'm fine. Uncle Derrick and Marina visited for Memorial Day and that was fun. I baked cookies. We shopped and we had a BBQ. Well we cooked the meat in the oven but we had corn and a kick ass fruit salad.
We took a couple of family pics.



And we got to go to the strawberry fields with auntie Lara. (This is a much more flattering picture of me!)

We actually cleaned Mary's room too.
I got a haircut this month too. But it's actually not as short as I wanted it. So I'm going to get it cut again right before the baby's born.

We also started swim lessons last week. No pictures of her swimming yet because she was crying  a lot, but we'll get them this week. Here she is right before swimming.
We'll let you know what happens in June. See you then!

New News

So we finally got plans finalized for the summer. See as how I won't be able to travel soon. We're going to Nor Cal for the family BBQ for the first weekend in June. Then Grandma Kay is coming out for a couple of weeks right after that. 

Mary's swim lessons are May 26th -June 4th right before we leave for Nor Cal. This weekend, for Mother's Day me and my mom and Diane are going to Vegas to see the Dave Matthews Band and Jason Mraz in concert. And we plan on seeing the new Star Trek movie too. It'll be my last getaway chance til Jr is like 2 or something.
We did get to go to a Birthday part recently for a playmate. She turned 2 and it was a Hello Kitty party. Mary had a good time. She loves cake!
And we also went to the beach the other weekend. There's more pictures up on the picture website at picasa.google.com/dancingmelissas. It was a little cool. But we got some sun and had a good time.

Hopefully in August we'll be able to get Diane out here for a couple of weeks when Jr is born. Depending on her school scedule. Gma Kay will be out again in July and August too to help us get ready for the new baby. Other than all that not much has changed in the past few months. TTFN!

What's Happenin


I've been a little out of it lately because we all got the flu. Well me and Mary got it and Rich was feeling tired for like half a day and then he was better. We did have Mary's swim lessons scheduled for this week and now we'll have to reschedule them. Mary has a cough and my nose is still stuffy. I also got strep throat to go along with my flu, but I nipped that in the bud fast. I don't think we're contagious anymore so now we can get back to life. Which is nice. 

Also our air conditioning had been out for a few days. Which is a bummer when you're pregnant and it's the hottest day of the year. But they fixed it and now I'm blissful in a cool house.

And we've had a lot of requests for pictures of mom and dad as well as the kids. So we'll get to that soon. Don't worry.

We had our Sonogram

So on friday we did go in for our 20 week sonogram. We're half way done cookin this bun. We found out that it's a boy! This is fun. Now I can shop for boy stuff. It'll be cool to have one of each.

The sonogram lady said that everything looked good. And he was moving and kicking the whole time. We just have to come up with a name now. We really don't know what to call him and would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks.

Easter Hunting!

Mary has had a great Easter week. She's done about 3 or 4 egg hunts (I lost count.) and had lots o chocolate. (That's her favorite candy.) Here's Mary and her friend Marcus at one hunt together.She does have a pretty dress on but it was pretty cold that morning and raining off and on so we'll have to catch her in the dress later.
Here's some more hunts we went to. Bummer it's been cold and rainy all week.
Here we are stuffing our face with chocolate.
And we didn't actually do this egg hunt because the playground looked so inviting and it was sort of a mad house.
It's been a fun week. We'll let you know how Easter Sunday went soon.

Disneyland

We had a great time at Disneyland. The Carosel was Mary's favorite ride. We went on it twice and she'd scream every time we got off. So we moved on to other rides. We went on Priates of the Caribean and she was a little scared but did well. And at the end where you see the Parot, she was excited. I had baught her a Tinkerbell balloon and it turns out that she doesn't like Tinkerbell. She said "No" so I traded it for a Mickey Balloon.She was happy with that balloon. We met Mary Poppins but Mary got all shy when it was time to take a picture. We love Mary Poppins though.
We also got to pet some goats. That was pretty fun. Mary loves all animals including pygmy goats.

We had a pretty good time. Next we'll try Legoland (where she can actually go on a lot of rides.) and Sea World. And we'll need to go to some Aquariums. Keep you updated.
