HOT!

Ok...it's the second "official" day of summer and I am at home babysitting (for free) an old neighbors 3 children. To top off my great day....my air conditioner went out and I am waiting to find out how much my pocket will be hurting once its fixed!

It's A....

Healthy Baby!! We had our 20 week ultrasound today. The baby is big and healthy. It weighs 13 ounces and has a heart beat rate of 153. The baby is constantly moving therefore it was difficult to get good pictures. We did get some though. Not as good as a 3-D ultrasound though. The baby's measurements show that I am a little over 21 weeks but previous calculations show I am 20 weeks tomorrow. The dr. said we are not changing the due date as of now. The baby may have just hit an early growth spurt. So, as of now it looks like we will have the baby around Nov. 1st or so.

Mommy and Me

Well, it's Mommy and Me time again at the mall. Anna took a friend with her today. They had a blast! Here are some pics of my fiesty cat and her friend at the mall.

As usual, I wait months before posting something new and have lots to post about. Although when I start typing I can never think of what to say. So, if I ramble please excuse me.

Anna is growing up so fast! Last month she graduated from preschool. They held a big ceremony with caps and gowns and the whole nine yards. It was really cute. She was so proud of herself that afterwards when we went out to eat she wore her cap and gown in the resturaunt. And by the way, no she has not lost any teeth. Alot of people have asked me if she has lost teeth in this pic. She broke her front two teeth not long after she got them. But it seems that lately it has become more noticable than ever. The dentist says that they are not impacted or anything, just chipped off. Oh well., it could be lots worse.

Well, I've been enjoying my summer vacation for a whole week now! After school let out, I worked on our parish curriuclum for a week, so my summer was prolonged a little. Anna and I spent the entire week last week in North LA visiting friends and family. It was nice but it sure is good to be home! Our plans are to spend the summer at Bleu Bayou, a water park near our house. Hopefully we won't get tired of it too soon.

Well, I will be 19 weeks pregnant on Wednesday! We actually go in for our 20 week ultrasound on my birthday but we are not finding out the gender. My husband seems to think it will be neat to run out of the hospital room screaming,"It's a __________!" I'm not sure that I agree with him but I am open to the idea. Although, it sure would be nice to know just for planning purposes. I told Justin that he will be out buying clothes while I am at home holding the baby if it's a boy. We have all of Anna's clothes still, so if it's a girl, I have that department covered. Anyway, I'll leave you with a pic of my belly. My mom took it last week. When I asked her to e-mail it to me she told me that it did not do my belly justice. So, in other words, my belly is actually bigger than it looks in this picture.
