Belly Pictures!

 This was my first photo taken in March after we found out we were having a baby!!
 April Photo...There's a little something starting to form, but not much yet!
 May  Photo...there's some belly starting to form!
This is my June photo...I guess it looks like I'm really growing...what a fatty!!  ;)

I have FINALLY added my belly pictures that I've been meaning to post for months now...Juan and I will find out in a few weeks if our little critter is a boy or girl.  We are so excited to know!  Most of these photos were taken in the evening after school...hence the crazy/undone hair and little makeup!  Ah, the life of a teacher. I have been feeling great these days and eating well.  I have not felt any movements yet; I am 18 weeks pregnant now.  One of the parents of a student that I tutor let me borrow a fetal heart monitor, but I haven't been able to pick up any sounds yet.  Maybe in another few weeks or so.  I hope to post more as the summer moves on and we get closer and closer to meeting our little one.  Can't wait to let everyone know our news on July 12th!

June Appointment-16 Weeks!

Well, I haven't fallen off the face of the earth, I just haven't had a good free moment to write what's been going on!  I missed the last two days of the regular school year due to the stomach flu which put me behind on my end of the year duties at school.  I haven't had the stomach flu in YEARS, so let me tell you...I don't ever want it again...not eating for 2 days makes for one hungry mama.  I am also teaching summer school and tutoring several kids, so my days and evenings are full these days...Once July rolls around, my days will be a little more free!  I've also been meaning to get some photos of myself up here too, so when I learn how to upload them on our new computer, I will get them up.

Today was my 3rd baby appointment and it lasted another 5 minutes!  Since my last appointment in May, I have gained 1, yes, 1 pound.  I thought I had gained more than that since everyday it seems I find another pair of pants that don't fit anymore.  The doctor said baby and I are doing just fine.  I also got to hear the heartbeat again and it's just oh so cool.  My doctor was able to find the heartbeat today right away and it was at 147.  We will go next month for another ultrasound to find out if our little critter is a boy or girl.  What are you predicting?  

Thank you for all of the prayers and support for Baby Diaz!  We can't wait to share more soon!!
