I had my second prenatal appointment today at 5:20pm so it was very convenient. We got to hear the heart beat! It was awesome! The nurse said the HR was at 162 but we think she did the math wrong we think it was higher than that. We were happy to hear that heart beat, I was nervous about it....you just never really know what is going on. I was nervous when they were checking for Elena's hear beat too. It is something you are anxious to hear because once you hear it you feel so much better and it makes you feel like all is well.
I will have the next appointment December 18th!

Just in case!
Just in case you haven't heard.....I AM PREGNANT! I am at 9 weeks and things seem to be going well so far. I had to make an early prenatal appointment because of my thyroid disease but it seems to be doing well. I will have my next prenatal appointment on the 20th. It was sort of the same as when I got pregnant with Elena. I thought to myself "oh, this might take a while" but, nope.
The baby is due June 17 and Elena will be just two months shy of being 2 1/2 years old. I have been feeling fine but a few weeks ago I was pretty nauseous and nothing sounded good to eat but V8...maybe it is a sign that we will be having a boy. Either way I will be happy!

Daddy.....again!
We were planning to share our good news with the fam over the Thanksgiving break but we quickly learned a valuable lesson: don't tell anyone until you're ready to tell everyone! Anyway, it leaked a bit and about half of the family knows so here you go...now everyone knows! : )
We are really excited about this new little one that is coming our way. I have felt for a long time that we would have a little boy, but I'm not betting any money on it. I could be wrong and we'll need every red cent when the new little one gets here.
Life is going to get crazy. Elena could still be in diapers when the baby comes and both will go to daycare for who-knows-how-long. One day Lynda will be home with the babies and that will make things much simpler. Until then we'll enjoy our little ones and make a million happy memories!

Anniversary!
Yesterday was our 3 year anniversary! I can't believe it has been 3 years already! We went out to Macaroni Grill for dinner we had Elena with us because we didn't have a sitter. The food was delicious and Elena enjoyed coloring and eating too. Afterwards we went to do a little shopping mostly looking for a winter coat and snow pants for Elena but what we liked wasn't available in her size.....I was annoyed. We didn't get home too late but I felt like we had been running around all day! I was so exhausted!
It has been 3 great years! Todd is the greatest in all the world and I don't deserve him. I am grateful to have found such a wonderful man. I love you Todd!!!

Two Sweet Girls!
My brother and his sweet little daughter were in town a couple of weeks ago. We haven't seen them since May and Aubrianna was just 7 months old, she just turned one October 9th. When I went over to my parents to see them I saw Aubrianna and I started crying....I just hadn't seen her in such a long time and she was so big! I only got to see her in videos from cell phones but that just isn't the same as in person.
I was worried that Elena would be jealous but she recognized her from photos that we were always pointing out and she said "baby, Abianna". She immediately wanted to play with her! We would tell Elena to give Aubrianna hugs and she would, she would also give her besitos (little kisses). It was so sweet! They played well but once in a while Aubri would get mad and try and take things away....it was pretty funny.
The Monday after they came my sister calls me at work and asked if my mom had talked to me about getting pictures of the girls together. I told her that she never mentioned anything to me about it. So then we have to hurry and make plans because they were only going to be here for about at week. My sister made an appointment for Wednesday so then of course we had to go find outfits for them. We found these really cute outfits and some shoes and we were all set.....or so we thought. Tuesday I decided I should try the clothes on Elena and well the pants were too small, there was no way we were going to find another outfit on such short notice. It was a good thing that they had these other matching pants that sort of went with the tops so it was all good.
Here are the pictures!!
This one is my favorite! We were telling Elena to give Aubri hugs and this is what she did.

This one is so cute, it is like Aubri is looking at Elena and saying "what are you talking about?"
Something is really funny. I think they just really like the little sofa.

In this one you can see her two bottom front teeth....so cute!


You can see a tear in her eye, she was crying because her daddy was like 5 feet away.

I think she is still laughing about the little sofa.
She was startled by the flash.
In this one too.
The girl just had to get a shot of her eyelashes!
So sweet!
