I felt so beautiful after looking at my pictures Rocio did!! She is such an amazing photographer. She came to the house and took my maternity boudoir pictures. She captured my growing baby with such a classy and sensual eye. I have never felt so beautiful and sexy and just great about myself as I did when I saw these pictures!

Today I'm 28 weeks. My little one has begun to have the hiccups more and more often. I'm craving spicy food. I want pepper in everything and can't get enough jalapeño kettle chips!! They're delicious! I now have a feeling there's a little boy growing in this belly of mine. And if that's so, i will proudly be a boy-mom!! But if there's a girl I will have the prettiest girl ever!!! I'm so tempted to find out what you are little one!! I just want to know so badly!

Big brother Henley is growing like crazy! He had his 15 month check up yesterday! Where has the time gone!!!? He's like a little man! I love seeing him explore and learn. He's 20 lbs and is 30 inches tall. He gets more and more silly every day. He loves blocks and his train set and he has begun to babble a whole lot more!! He always has something to say now haha

Heartbeat this week was 140! I'm starting to think you're a little boy!
You're very active either way! If you're a little girl we would be thrilled..but if you're a little boy we would be just as excited!! Ahh! I'm so excited to meet you and hold you and cuddle you and kiss your little face!!

I love you sweetheart! Xoxoxo

My little HQ, you are so precious!!! I love everything about you! You have the best personality! Some of the funny things you're doing right now are, dancing, tip toeing, laughing..

ANY time a song comes on the tv, you stop what you're doing and run over to it to dance! Lol you can be frustrated with something or distracted and will totally drop it to go dance! I love your little hips that you move side to side and flap your hands up and down. All with the biggest smile on your face!

Every where you go around the house you do it on your tippy toes! Running, walking. All on your toes. It's super cute. You're going to have strong legs! You also like to run as fast as you can sticking your head out and down with your arms back haha it's like when a duck takes off running haha

Your Laughter! It's the best sound in the world. When you want something (your cup, snacks etc) and we get it for you, you laugh like you're so happy we understood you haha its my favorite thing!

You're a silly little man! And I love everything about you! We have our moments of frustration with each other but they're just moments. They only last a few minutes. They don't over shadow all of the good times we have.

Today you crawled up in my lap and let me rock you to sleep in your crib! I love how cuddly you've become and how much you want me to hold you now :)
I love you little booger!!

Happy new Year!!

January 2, 2016

Happy New Year my little love!!! I can't believe it's 2016. You will be 2 later this year and will have a baby brother or sister!! Aaahhh!! Probably a brother ;)
We spent New Years at Abuelitas and Papi's! It was awesome! We just stayed up and watched you play with toys and the ball drop in Time Square. And then we all went to bed. Doesn't sound that exciting but being with my family is the best feeling in the world!

Today you were a big boy and got your very first hair cut! We're so proud of you! I can't believe how well you did.
Your aunt Jenn Jenn did it and she did such an awesome job! You were wiggly but she managed to work with you haha I love you little dove!!
