STROLLER!!!

So we got our stroller today! Very exciting...I did so much research on strollers and asked about a million people about their stroller and what they thought of their stroller. In the end, for all of my endless walking I hope to do we ended up with a Bob Revolution. I have only heard great things! I will keep you posted when I actually put it to use :)

A Dream to Laugh At...

So last week I had a dream...

I woke up in my Mom's house in the spare bedroom upstairs. It was dark and I called for my Mom. She came in and I asked her what happened? She told me that I had the baby. With no baby in sight, I asked where he was and she said he was sleeping in the other room with Pablo.

I told her I didn't recall any of the labor. She told me I had been out of it for a couple days. When I asked why, she replied with "Well, the baby was big...he was 16 pounds!"

I guess I had to have a c-section. Later in the dream I was holding him and saying that he didn't feel that big...my Mom said that he weighed in at 16 pounds, 2 ounces!! I just thought that was CRAZY. In my dream, I was definitely happy I didn't recall any of the labor.

Once I woke, up I had to laugh. Hopefully that will not be the case. I think that I am just starting to think about the labor process and all of the possibilities of what can happen before I meet my son, Nikko.

I know in my heart that everything will be okay...just normal anxiety for any new Mom, not knowing what to expect. I will soon find out :)

~Nikko Kale Estrada~

So we have finally decided on a name!!

NIKKO KALE ESTRADA

I am so excited to be able to start calling him by his name and it really fits well. He definitely has been a morning person lately...waking me up usually by 7:00ish. I love to lay in bed and feel him move around. Paabs has been able to feel him a few times, but usually he decides to be still when Dad puts his hands on my belly. I think it is because Paabs calms him :) I can't wait to meet him in our world. His personality is starting to come out. I think he will be a lot like his Daddy!!

We bought a baby heart monitor yesterday that is suppose to allow you to be able to hear and record Nikko's heartbeat during the third trimester. Yesterday we had no luck, but I just started my third trimester. I will keep you posted and hopefully soon, I can post his heartbeat.

I am going to be painting the nursery the next couple of weekends. Getting sort of a late start, but I need to reorganize the house first.

Our backyard is almost complete...Stay tuned for pictures!!

it's already been 25 weeks since my little pr seed started growing. i felt him move the other day it was very exciting for me because i never have experience a new life before. i think it really still has not registered in my head that my lil boy is almost here, but honestly i can't wait for him to come out and be with us. so for now i have to play as much call of duty as i can because we all know when my boy comes the controllers wi get a lil dusty from not playing lol. but i do need someone to play with so he will be a perfect candidate lol. we still have not found a name yet it's very frustrating all the names i can think of are to long or doesn't fit him kari keeps saying add it to the list booo. lol i thought of one today nikko estrada sounds good to me. anyways i will keep brain storming on names one will fit our lil man. we have the baby shower coming up yeah lots of presents less stuff we have to buy for him lol just kidding. we will get him wat ever he wants cuz thats my boy. he will be here soon 3 more months can't wait to see you nikko lol see i like that name,love paabs

A Belly Pic...Finally

Yesterday was our friend's son's 3rd birthday...

They had a person putting on fake tattoos, so they finally talked me into putting one on my belly. Not really something I wanted to do. Baby Boy Estrada, got his first tatoo! And now I have some belly shots for you. This is me at 25 weeks. I will take have Paabs take some more pics...

Thanks for the pictures Shannon.

Everything else has been going well. I feel him a lot these days...mostly in the evenings. We have our normal doctor's appt this Tuesday. Still thinking of names...I have decided I need to start saying them out loud! I am hoping to have narrowed it down to a few names by the time we have the baby shower.
