This happened a while back but I want to remember how cute and innocent my little girl is. I can't believe she is almost four. The other day we were out on my dads boat and Evey was going on and on about the lake houses. Later she finds a dime and hands it to me, she's very serious when she says "Mamma, here, I want you to buy me a lake house" HA! If only it was that easy, she's such a cutie.

What's the baby's name?
I found the gender out early. The official ultrasound will be this week when Carlos is in town. Evey has been very curious and excited about the baby. She knows more than I give her credit for. She kisses my tummy without being prompted n things like that, she loves telling ppl there is a baby in my tummy and that it's a girl. One of my best friends Amy has an ADORABLE little girl named Katie. The other day she asks, "mommy, is the baby in your tummy named Katie too?" I just smiled and told her no, I think her name is going to be Liliana. She paused and looked at me. She says I'm Evelyn ARIanna, she's going to be LILIana. I said is that okay? She responded sure! n went about her day. It was adorable! She's going to be such a loving big sister, I can't wait. <3

Baby Update

Size of baby: 0.9 oz, 3 inches long
Total Weight Gain/Loss: According to MY scale, down 1lb
Maternity Clothes: Bought my first mommy swimsuit, with Evey I was so tiny I just wore my bikini....now not so much. Had to get some maternity bottoms too. Even though I'm about the same weight I'm starting to show.
Movement: Yes, around week 12 I started to feel the fluttering. Now I feel it almost everyday.
What I miss: Massive amounts of caffiene
Sleep: Ha! What's that? I work nights and "sleep" during the day.
Symptoms: My boobs are bigger! woo hoo haha. My nausea is getting worse unfortunately.
Best Moment this past week: Having Carlos there for the ultrasound and seeing our baby move all over the place!
What I am looking forward to: My next day off.

Big News!
Evey is going to be a big sister! Today marks my 2nd trimester. Carlos and I are expecting at the end of January. The 1st trimester has been a whirlwind, wondering how things will work out with him living so far away, I've been working so much, trying to figure out a way to stay at home for as long as possible, being so darn tired all the time, being nauseated.... I'm ready for a break! The first trimester flew by, I'm hoping the next two are slower, I need more time to prepare. I'm looking forward to tomorrow, Carlos flys in for a week. Its always so nice to have him home. I'm showing a little, haven't gained any weight yet but feel as big as a house. I've got the normal pregnancy issues, indegestion, nausea, extreme fatigue. I know some of it will subside. We have told family and friends as of now, still haven't posted anything on facebook there are some things I need to get in order first. I'm going to tell Evey once I really start showing, I'm sure she will be excited. She loves babies and thinks they are so cute, she is going to be a great big sister. I'm very excited, it seems to be sinking in now. At the same time I'm concerned about the pregnancy. This time around I'm 30 lbs heavier and under a lot more stress. With Evelyn I didn't even THINK about complications, now I worry and hope everything goes well. I'm a little sad I won't get to set up a nursery, I'm still and probably will remain in our one br apt. I didn't get to have one for Evelyn either. I know the baby won't know the difference, but it still makes me sad. I know I will have to make a lot of sacrifices for our baby, they will all be worth it though.

Missing my baby girl
I work too much and I'm missing Evelyn terribly. I always say it will get better and eventually things will slow down. I'm beginning to think there is no end in site. I will always have to work a lot and I will always be missing the ones that are dearest to me.
