Mt Ensign 2nd Ward Baby Shower!! TANTO AMOR

What sweet ladies. They totally didn't have to, but they did and they did it with so much love. I was told it started at noon, but apparently it started at 11.....finally a sister came to our home and told me they were all waiting for me! Surprise! Ok! So I hurried to get myself ready and went over, and one of the sisters said they thought maybe I had gone to the hospital! :) Not Yet, thankfully!
They decorated and have food and cake and games and lots of gifts, I am amazed at how many diapers and wipes! Seriously it's awesome! Almost 1000 wipes! haha so cool! We are going to have one clean baby girl :)

They made me cry when they did the "Cadena de Amor" or Chain of Love. They made a paper chain, where each person wrote a piece of advice, or a message, or a wish or something to me or to our baby girl. It was so sweet to hear her name said over and over. Alina :)

Here are the photos!

A good read, and it's free!

My younger brother Peter posted on Facebook a link to some great writers: the Eyres.
They have a website where you can read their books online for FREE or get them for SUPER CHEAP electronically. The website is called eyresfreebooks.com. I am loving it! I am currently reading, (well I just started today haha) one of the books and its called A Joyful Mother of Children and I am excited to continue reading it!

Hopefully you can find a book there, that you will enjoy and grow from! :) Happy Reading and Learning!

94 YEARS 94 AÑOS

Papa, my grandpa, turned 94 yesterday! He had a great big American flag cake for his birthday.
Those who came to celebrate were Me and Flavio, Aunt Chris and Uncle David, Peter and Heather and Melanie, cousin Phillip with his four children, and then a visit from the 9th ward Young men and Young women group with some of their leaders. I took some pictures! I remember that Papa loves humor and comics, so I printed out some comic strips for him, and made him a card. Hopefully he will reach 100 so he gets that letter from the President of the United States, which is what he's looking forward to.

Papa, mi abuelo, cumplio 94 ayer! Tuvo una gran torta de la bandera Estadounidense para su cumple. Aquellos que vinieron a celebrar fueron yo y Flavio, Tia Chris y Tio David, Peter y Heather y Melanie, primo Phillip y sus cuatro hijos, y entonces una visita del grupo de jovenes del barrio 9 con unos de sus lideres. Yo saque unos fotos! Le hice a Papa una tarjeta, e inclui "comics" que son como chistes en dibujitos. Se espera que llega a los 100 años para que pueda recibir una carta del Presidente de los Estados Unidos, porque eso es lo que el quiere.

34 SEMANAS! 34 WEEKS!

34 SEMANAS!   34 WEEKS!

Today I am now 34 weeks and only around 6 or so to go!
You never really know, it could be less, could be more, oh boy that is kind of scary! haha Guess I better pack that hospital bag!!

:) This year is flying by! Our little girl will be here before we know it!

Is it normal to not feel at all mentally prepared?!?!?!? :)

It's kind of strange to think one day life is the way it is, and still pregnant of course, but then the next day, you actually have the baby there, needing to be held and cared for and watched over and .....

guess it's time for more relaxation techniques!! Here's to First Time Parents!!
