The baby is getting bigger and bigger. I like to call him flipper since I can feel him flipping or moving - sort of like a fish. I can't wait for our Christmas break! I realize that I over extended myself - especially with being pregnant and am just waiting for some down time. Being pregnant takes a little more out of you, even if you don't realize it until later! I just finished eating a slice of pumpkin pie for breakfast. As desserts go, I think it was a more healthy choice - hey, the baby got his vitamin a for the day! But I have to stick to a pretty strict diet from our birthing classes so the baby gets everything he needs for proper development.
We are still thinking about baby names and have a few that we like, but the search goes on. We are both getting very excited for the little guy's arrival! I am reading some childbirth books to prepare myself for the big day. Sometimes I can't believe that this little creature swimming around inside my stomach is going to come out and be a our real-live baby boy!

It's been a while!
It has been about a month since my last entry! Now we know that the baby is a BOY! While looking at the ultrasound, I told the doctor that I could not make out anything except for the head. I asked him what he was looking at and he replied, "Well, it's a penis!" So now is time to look at baby boy names!!!
Jose just finished a semester long English class in two months and we are now going back to some sense of normalcy - the normalcy where you try to get everything done before a baby arrives - my master's thesis, my national board certification, and of course the fun stuff - getting ready for the baby!
I am so thankful for such amazing friends these days. One of the teachers at my school is giving us her crib. My vice principal gave me three huge bags of cute maternity clothes! So many wonderful friends are volunteering to throw us baby showers! We are truly blessed!
Now off to church. As soon as I figure out how to scan things, I'll put the utlrasounds on here. Maybe if your lucky, a picture of my growing belly!
