Birthday Boy

Isaac had to work on his birthday.It sucks! But at least I had all the time to cook for his birthday. I took him out for breakfast early this morning. After he left, I cleaned the house, took a long nap and prepared a special dinner for him. It's better than restaurant food. Nothing really fancy but I worked so hard :-) My husband loved it and ate a lot! Here's my little dinner surprise for him...

He's a happy birthday boy!



The yummiest cake in the world. Who can resist chocolate cake?

Getting ready to blow the candles! Isaac turns 26! He would smile like this every year. He's goofy! I just love how he makes me smile all the time!

Making a wish. So serious...

There will be a part two celebration tomorrow with the family. We're gonna have dinner and then I'll take him out on a date. It's a little surprise. We need this date before Alex comes out :-)

Happy Birthday Isaac!

I love you with all my heart and I am yours eternally. I will be forever in love with you. Happy birthday!

37 weeks preggo

Today is a very special day for me because my baby is now full-term. It means, if he arrives today like his cousin Darren, his lungs is fully matured and ready to adjust on the outside world. But seriously, I don't think he wants to come out yet. Whenever he's ready, we're ready!
This week, I get a lot of Braxton hicks. Not that bad though. I just drink plenty of water and rest when it occurs. It's also harder to sleep through the night and get a comfortable position.It won't be long till Alex's arrival. I have 21 days to go or less. I guess, I have to be more patient. They say that when your due date is close, it feels like forever. It's so true!!!

Meet my new nephew

Here are pictures of my new nephew. He's gonna be Alex's buddy! He's so precious and cute!

Born: January 7, 2010

Favorite of the month

I love fruits and it's always in my shopping list. I eat 2-3 servings of fruit everyday or even more. This month, my favorite fruit is avocado. It's really weird because I did not care for it before. In my almost 4 years here in the states, I just started buying avocado 2 months ago. Weird craving huh? And to add the weirdness, I eat it with milk and a little bit of sugar. It's really good!
Just today, I read about health benefits of avocado. Click here . It turned out to be, that my weird craving is super healthy for me and my baby.

I'm an Aunt again!

My sister, Bambi gave birth yesterday at 12:19 AM at 37 weeks. My newest nephew's name is Darren Temblor.He's 3 weeks early but full-term. I am so excited to see him hopefully this year or early next year. They're still in the hospital right now, but they're both doing well. I kind of hope that my little boy will decide to come early but of course full-term. But with all the blizzard/heavy snow, I just want him to come out on a nice weather. I will post a picture of my nephew as soon as my sister will email some pictures.

36 weeks pregnant

I am 36 weeks along. One more week to go and I am considered full-term. I am getting more and more excited each day. I am ready to embrace my new important calling in life, which is Motherhood! Now that it's getting closer, I am kind of nervous. I am a little worried about labor pain, whether to get an epidural or not and etc. I'm pretty sure that I am experiencing pregnancy blues this time. But I do know it'll be worth it, so BRING IT ON!!! :-)

The baby's car seat is already in our car. Our hospital bag is not quite ready, but we have almost everything we need. Tomorrow is the day where I will make sure that everything is prepared and complete.

I am in-love with my baby boy. He is indeed a mover and a kicker, specially when I am trying to sleep. I don't mind though because he's a joy beyond compare. I think I am going to cry a bucketful of tears when I finally see him. I am pretty sure I will.
