So long to 2008!

I don't know why but I am glad to be over with the holidays! Some how we managed not to take a single photo of our Christmas.....so x-mas 08 will be like it never happened.



I finished working last week....and I'm really bored and apparently Belen is to! She is so ready for the baby to come out and has asked me if today is the day ever day so far. When I told her that I can't make the baby come out she was upset....she even asked Derek when he came home to give me a blessing that will make the baby come out. I hope for her sake he comes out soon! As you can see she has already packed her overnight suit case.....and keeps bring it upstairs and down. Pray for my sanity!



Belen was in her first Holiday play! It was very cute and short! She really knew all the songs very well.

Thanksgiving Weekend












We had a nice Thanksgiving with all the Barney Family...we also went to Tilden park to ride the steam train with all the extended family. We also hit all the black Friday 4am sales...it was lots of fun.



My little Pony



Belen and I were able to see 2 Shetland pony's that one of the Dr's I work for has. I think it's every little girls dream to own a pony. Belen got to feed them and walk them around.

A Day At The Beach

Belen enjoyed the butterflies at Natural Bridges in Santa Cruz
Apparently Derek and I look like we've never been in the sun! Belen looks like she should be the next Hawaiian tropics kiddo!

3D/4D ultrasound












I just had to have a 3D//4D ultrasound.....I just never know how many more babies I will be able to have. Of course he was sleeping and wasn't giving the best poses for the camera,
But for the most part it was neat to see him and he did stick his tongue out at us. I guess that shows us whats to come....lol!

Pre Halloween Party!

Belen, Olivia and Celia
Belen kept up my tradition of winning the cake walk.....Jill also won....I swear it was my mojo rubbing off on her!

Dylan totally wins for the cutest baby in a costume....she is sooo cute!



Belen and her favorite person...Sister Larson!



Of course me and Jill....she told me we could only come if i had a token pumpkin belly....I did my best with the 5 min I had before we left!
We had so much fun I will miss our old church ward !! I guess we can come to the functions and just pretend we were inactive or something!

7 months




Belen thinks it is so funny how big my belly is getting! She keeps telling me..not much longer mom...but you still have to get bigger before the baby can come out!
She also loves to lay her head on my belly and feel him kick....it's so sweet!
Although I think she will be bored when he is born....I'm sure he will prove her theory about babies, that all they do is cry!

Off to Kindergarten!



Belen has completed her first 2 weeks of school! She likes her new teacher and enjoys being a helper in her class. We also worked on her first set of homework....homework in kindergarten?
This week started with a cold/ear ache....I drove all the way to work and realized she wasn't going to make it at school today cuz she got worse with her sneezing and coughing the closer we got and she also looked pretty bad. The only good thing is we got to snuggle and take a much needed( 4 hr) nap together.

A 5yr olds view on Pregnancy

This is exactly what Belen told me in the car after my appointment:

Mom... I was excited when you told me we were having a baby.( pause)..and I like that it's a boy! But it's pretty boring ....and I won't be excited til it comes out... so stop asking me if I'm excited.

I just thought ya I am sure that's how most of the Dads feel to!

It's a Boy!!

It’s a BOY!

We had an interesting experience yesterday!
Our ultrasound tech looked like Zulu from the original Star trek but he had the personality of the soup Nazi from Seinfeld.

Luckily I have had many Ultrasounds so I knew what he was looking at but Derek was a little upset that he wasn’t explaining things very well. If you know Derek at all….he loves to have all the details of everything and I mean everything.

Zulu said he saw a nub in between the legs every time he scanned. Even when he doing other measurements.

Derek was like are you sure…and Zulu said “It’s a boy…But if you wish maybe it will fall off if you want a girl so bad.”

We were like ok….we are happy with a boy! Just wanted to make sure we got it right. I think we will have a Girl back up name Just in case!

Our Summer Vacation

Well, We are Back in one piece from our Marathon Vacation! I have so many post please go to view the older post even though they are new!

We had a great time at all the places we have gone and ended the trip with my Brothers wedding which was so much fun!

We are very tired and worn out! I can't believe how many miles we have traveled like 2800! And how well Belen kept up with us on all our activities....especially when she went on (2) 5 mile bike rides... on a little barbie bike!

We are gonna be low key the next couple of weeks...for sure!
