Week 19 and 20

Time is flying now!  I'm sure with the holidays that the next two months will just zoom by.  Little girl is moving lots these days....especially in the mornings and evening.  The baby probably moves around all day, but since I'm always on the go, I think I'm only feeling things when I am sitting and relaxing - or trying to sleep!

Here are a few pics - a first look at Baby Girl 3.0 and a shot of mommy's belly.  :)

Week 17 and 18

It's been a busy two weeks!  First things first......as you can see by the change of title and change in blog colors......Baby Rivera #3 is another GIRL!  It's official......no 'perfect timing', 'special position', caffeine, or whatever can overshadow God.  If He wants you to have girls.....girls will be what you have!  (He must know that I would have NO idea what to do with a boy!  ha ha).  I'm tickled PINK to be having another girl - just like my mommy!  Growing up with two sisters was wonderful - lots of wonderful fun memories, and I hope that my girls will have the same.

In other big news.....Baby Girl is finally getting strong enough to give me some movements!  I just love feeling the baby move around.  It's one of my favorite parts of being pregnant - and a welcome break after the only sign of being pregnant was the fact that I was sick.  Although, I am also getting bigger - which reminds me to get my butt in gear and get some belly shots!  Where does the time go?

The past two weeks we were also traveling.  We visited our families in CT and in NY.  The drive is getting longer and longer.  I think that each kid adds on an hour or two, so with three, our 9 and 10 hour trips will be more like 12 and 15!  Thank goodness for the portable DVD players.....I really don't know how our parents did it!!!  Can you imagine a 10 hour ride with no TV?  :)

That's about it!  I'll get our ultrasound picture scanned in the next few days and put that up as well.  Baby Girl #3 is a cutie already!

Week 16

Another week goes by!  Not too much to report.  I have not been sick this week, but I'm not getting my hopes up.  It was simply a good week.  I was even headache free.  YEAH! 

I remembered another thing from my first trimester....and actually into my second.  Coffee.  I couldn't drink coffee.  Now, I know that you are told to stay away from caffeine during pregnancy, but a drink or two they say is okay.  I usually limit myself to one a day - if that - and it's usually my AM coffee.  Sadly, I had to give it up because just the smell of it turned my stomach.  That has passed (thankfully!!) and I'm back to my one-a-day joe.  Oh how I've missed you.

17 more days until we find out if we're having a boy or girl.....but who's counting?  :)

XOXOXO
