A game...

So my friend Jenn created a game on ExpectNet.com and I copied her! Make a guess about Sadie's weight, length, time of arrival, and date of arrival! The link is on the right in the blog!

It's soo fun and there are quite a few guesses...I am guessing a small baby before my due date! LOL...typical for an expectant mom! Who would want a HUGE baby after their due date in all honesty?

Really, I just want her to be healthy! Can't wait to see all of guesses and to meet our little girl!

Sadie's nursery

Gil and I went to babies R Us last weekend and I think after much debate we have decided on the Delta Soho set in white. Here are the pics:

We have decided to pain the walls in the Nursery a light purple and we are looking for a bedding set and decor for the room. We like beachy stuff, but we want her to have a girly beachy room, so we shall see how it ends up!

After we were at Babies R Us I decided to go online and start a registry...I think I put like 5 things on there, but nothing major or anything that will DEFINITELY stick. I know I am getting quite a few things from my best friend Bevy...she's giving me a stroller and car seat set AKA a travel system, as well as a bassinet, clothes, a diaper disposal, bath tub, boppy, and some other stuff. I feel SOOO blessed! AND I have already received a vibrating swing from one of my mom's friends. I can't believe how much stuff is coming, but how much more there is to get for our little girl!

On another note... My belly is getting big. More and more everyday Sadie is moving around in there and growing and everyone keeps telling me I'm getting big...If I'm getting big now how the heck am I gonna look in 3 more months? I will post belly pics soon!

It's been a while!

WOW!! I just realized I haven't updated since our anniversary! November was a very busy month! I worked a lot, went to Ft. lauderdale to see Legally Blonde...Sadie LOVED the show, and then before I knew it, we had family coming in to town for thanksgiving and now it is December 1st!

So, some updates...Sadie's been growing like a mad woman, dancing up a storm inside of me! Some days she is MUCH more active than others...but she is ALWAYS wide awake when I'm ready to go to bed. She must know what time it is. One time I woke up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom and before I was to the toilet and back to the bed she was squirming around!

Below are pictures from 21 weeks, 23 weeks, 23.5 weeks, and 24 weeks. My belly REALLY popped after week 22! It is soo crazy! Gil is really in to taking lots and lots of pictures of me now. It's wonderful! I am glad you can finally tell I'm preggo and not just having a fat day! I can no longer zipper or button my pants, so thank god for belly bands! It will soon be time to invest in some maternity pants!

I like when people ask when I'm due and how I'm feeling, but sometimes some people get a little TOO personal...I usually try not to let it bother me, but sometimes it just erks me!

Tomorrow is my next Doctor's appointment. I am figuring we won't have an ultrasound, but I now have a ton more questions to ask the doc like...what do hiccups feel like, what do braxton hicks feel like, and some other things I can't think of now!

Ok, enough chitter chatter...here are the goods...

Our 1st Anniversary!

Today was a wonderful day of 1st's!

Our first anniversary was very relaxing and a wonderful look back at our first year of marriage together! Last night we went on a sunset dinner cruise on the Sanibel Harbour Princess...coincidentally, we both figured out we loved each other on one in the Keys almost 4 years ago. Anyways, it was very nice to spend time together and enjoy a beautiful sunset from a boat...just like we did at our wedding! Today we relaxed by the pool at the hotel we stayed at last night. Then we headed out making a few stops along the way and just doing whatever we wanted! We stopped at Publix on the way home and picked up some dinner. We cooked together and then enjoyed the top tier of our wedding cake. BTW my mom REALLY knows how to keep something from getting freezer burned! That thing had about 74 layers of clear wrap around it inside a ziploc bag! It still tasted yummy though! It was so wonderful to just enjoy each other and not have anything to worry about.

Another 1st for today was that Gilbert felt Sadie move! He was so excited! He was talking to her and then she started moving and I told him to put his hand on, and everytime he started talking to her she would move. Very weird, but so exciting for him!

The final first is I FINALLY can see a bump! A picture says a thousand words...so here you go!

I think it's pretty awesome! My husband and I are so happy with our first year of marriage, and can't wait for the many more years to come...and of course our baby girl Sadie!!!

Preparing the house!

We are growing a family, so that means we need to go big...they say bigger is better and in this furniture situation I HAVE to agree!!!

Last week we went to Rooms to Go and got our Dining room set and a new bed! Halle-Freakin-Luyah for a king size bed is all I have to say!!

Here are pics of the furniture!

Half Baked...

So Sadie is half way here! I think it's funny that she is half baked! Gil likes to say we have a bagel in the oven instead of a bun! He's silly...even more he insists that she is Jewban flavor...Jewish and Cuban! :)


Everything is moving along the way it should be. She measured perfectly at the ultrasound, everything is normal normal normal! My belly is starting to grow! When Gil went to take the pictures he asked me if I was pushing my tummy out and I said "no" and he got SOO excited!


I took my first Prenatal Yoga class today and Sadie LOVED it...well she was squirming around in there while I was supposed to be meditating...very difficult to meditate with a little one having a party inside of you!

So here are the half way pictures! The first is a super close up...really shows the roundness of my belly! The other 2 are the regular weekly ones, but the side view definitely shows some growth! YAY!

The answer...received!

WE HAVE A GIRL!!!

Her name is Sadie James Suarez! We are in love with her even more so now that we know she is a her/she than before! We are so excited!

We found out on 10/27/09...our ultrasound appointment was so fun! Below are some pics from the ultrasound! There aren't any pictures showing that Sadie's a girl...because since she's a girl there isn't anything to see! LOL



You can see her Spine and side Profile


She's looking at her mommy and daddy and waving at us!!

I was 19 1/2 weeks along in this ultrasound. My due date is still right around March 18-22, 2010! Sadie weighed in at 10.5 oz! She is just soo precious! Coming soon are my middle of the road pics! Sadie is half-baked...YIKES!!!
