Vincent and Maya

We are all doing really well. Vincent is getting bigger and bigger. He was 8lbs and 13 oz last time we went to the doc. Maya is doing really good. She is doing well preparing for kindergarten next year. She loves to sing the ABC's together and I'll stop singing while she isn't paying attention and she keeps singing them right!

Vinnie smiles at everything! And he laughs a lot. He talks quite a bit too.

Hey out there

Well I have mom's Internet for the day so I figured I'd do a post.

I will be 32 weeks Thursday, this is a good milestone to reach because that is the gestation Maya was born in and we all know she is doing fine. I am having contractions regularly every 5 minutes or so, sometimes more aggressive feeling than others, depending on how "easy" I have been taking it. I go to the doctor to get a check up Thursday so we'll see what he says. Last time I was checked I believe was a week and a half ago and I was 2 centimeters dilated.


Maya has been telling people, "My mommy's belly is so big!" And Jeffery's sister said the other day they were at the store and there was another pregnant woman there, and Maya said "My mommy's belly is a lot bigger than that lady's" LOL. I guess in her eyes the bigness is like a competition?

Me-o-Maya

My Maya has been taking such good care of me during this pregnancy. I was in the hospital for contractions and the day that I got home, right after Jeffrey left, I was having a rather painful contraction. No matter how hard you try to hide stuff like that Maya can always tell that something isn't quite right. So she is asking me what was wrong, and I told her I was hurting. She says "Do you need to go to the hospital?" It was so sweet how she said it. I told her I didn't want to and she, of course, asked why, so I told her " Cause I want to stay here with you"





The other day Rocky gave Maya some money cause we were going to the dollar store. She had to took at the whole store and finally when it was time to pay and go she put her thing she wanted, which was a dollar, on the counter and mom and I told her now you have to give him the money. She wouldn't let me count it out for her, instead she reached into her pocket, pulled out a nickle and set it on the counter. It was so funny, as if she was thinking "that should cover it".

Maya is going to be a big sister

I'm 16 weeks pregnant. I met the doctor, the last time it was the nurse practitioner, and I feel really confident that I'm in good hands. And he reassured me that it is "OK" to have a baby at 32 weeks, its when you have one in twenty something weeks that it is very worry some because then the baby has serious heath problems their whole life. So he said we will try to go full term but if we don't then at least get to a safe term. Plus he said I will know what the signs are that things are going wrong because they'll be written in my system like a computer so if any alarms go off in my head I'll be able to just make an appointment and go from there.

So enough on that subject:

Maya is really excited about being a big sister. She comes up to me and says "Mommy, can I see yours baby?" referring to my belly, which I will suppose will be my baby until no longer pregnant. So I say yeah, and she pulls my shirt up and leans in closer and says "Hi baby, its me Maya. I will not make you cry. I love you." and she kisses my belly. She does this fairly often telling the baby all sorts of things. It is so sweet, the baby will know who she is upon arrival.

The latest on my end of the world

Well, for those of you who don't know: I am 13 weeks pregnant today. This pregnancy so far has been quite miserable. I am constantly exhausted, and go from phases of being nauseated to phases of wanting to eat everything in sight.

Maya seems very interested in the whole situation. She says she has a baby in her belly too. When we ask her if she wants a brother or a sister sometimes she says brother sometimes sister, but one day she says "A brother and a sister".

Maya's imagination, medical practices, and more

Today Maya walked up to me and says 'Hi my name is Susie' I didn't know what to say so I say 'OK'. So she was 'Susie' for like 15 minutes, it was quite cute.

Maya sees a freckle on my arm and says "Oh mommy, you have an owwie, you need some butter." I say "Why do I need butter?" She doesn't reply just proceeds to put some slobber on her finger and rub it on my freckle, then she says "All better!" I said "Yeah, all better". And as time went by I have discovered not only that butter is actual slobber, but it has all kinds of healing abilities. If you have an owwie, chapped lips, a messy face, the possibilities are endless, just put some 'butter' on it. And could you guess who she could have possibly learned this from? None other than Mommy her self. We are headed out and I realize she has a small splotch of chocolate on her face, no wipes handy, so I lick my finger and rub it away. She looks at me and says "Mommy, you spit on me!" I say "It's OK I was just using a little slobber to clean your face". weeks later she cleans my face with slobber.
