Can't Breathe!

I finally got a day off from work. I have a lot to do to get ready for this baby!, so much cleaning and organizing and absolutely no energy! I am 35 weeks now and can't wait for this to end. Our baby does not have a name yet! yeah  i know, we're slackers. By the way, I had an ultrasound earlier this week and the baby's head is down in my pelvis, like really down there, no wonder i've been having leg pain and my hips kill! he has a lot of hair, and he has big cheeks, yes the Bernabe cheeks. His heart was great, no skipping beats so we are not worried anymore. I am going to try to deliver this baby naturally, but the Dr. is only giving me until March 13 to do so, if he doesn't come on his own by then, I will have a C-section on friday the 13th! I really do want to experience natural labor, i'm not afraid I just want to get it over with. I am getting so excited for him to come and join our little family. I am still working full time and will probably do so until the end. I really can't complain much about this pregnancy because it is way better than Ryders. Heart burn is a daily thing but again not as bad as the last one. We've all been a little stressed out with my Brother in Law Ron's surgery, he had a tumor around his pancreas and it took 11 hours of surgery to remove it! He is in Intensive Care right now and they are keeping him sedated at least until tomorrow. This is so his body can rest and not work so hard. We are all praying for him and ask everyone to please do so as well. Poor guy he is going to be in a lot of pain when he wakes up. I work at the hospital so I'll be able to visit him during my lunch breaks and hopefully keep him some company since he has to stay for 2 weeks. I hate being in the hospital it is so boring so I feel for him.
Here are some recent pics of us.

it's been a long long time!

well, I am at work, so i'm not going to post everything that has gone on in the past 3 months. I am 33 weeks pregnant and i am doing fine. The baby is having some type of arrhythmia which is the same problem ryder had in the womb but it went away as soon as he was born. The doctor is not concerned and truly i'm not either, I am scheduled for an ultrasound next monday! i have about 6 weeks left until this little one comes along. Believe it or not Marc and I have not sat down to think of names for this baby, and now i'm starting to get stressed out. There is so much to be done but I have no time to do anything with working a full time job, taking care of Ryder and Marc. I am exhausted but hanging in there! My grandma Rita (my mom's mom) came to visit for Christmas, it was so good to see her and my aunt issa and her son Raul. I had not seen them for almost 9 years! it's crazy. I reconnected with them and I feel like I have a closer and better relationship with my grandma. The best part is that she got baptized about 4 or 5 years ago and is going strong. both my aunt and gma have great testimonies of the church and that makes me extremely happy. It was a little hard to spend a lot of time with them because I had to work and my brother and sis in law were in town for the holidays too, so I always felt guilty for not hanging out with them and then not hanging out with my grandma, it was really hard, but hopefully everyone left happy. I will post more pics this week, my sis Elsie is going to help me update my blog. I'm excited. Keep checking my blog don't give up on me!
