Emma loves Subway!


Today I got Subway for lunch and Emma loved the Italian BMT, my favorite! She ate 3" all by herself! This is right after finishing! (The actual pictures of the devouring of the sandwich were too dark to post).
Edited: Just added another picture.

We went to the Fair!


Yesterday, the very last day of the Delaware County Fair, we decided to go and eat some delicious funnel cakes! We didn't go see the animals (way too stinky for me), but we saw the super old tractors they had on display and also the girls got to ride the boats and the Mary go round (so expensive!). We all had a good time and we're glad we made it this year, even though I couldn't move for hours after walking around at the fair. Emma got to ride the Mary Go Round and enjoyed it for a few turns until it picked up speed!, she then proceeded to cry for the rest of the time.

Gestational Diabetes?

The results are in! I passed the test!! I don't have to poke my fingers or diet! I do not have Gestational Diabetes! I couldn't... I still can't believe it!
I went to the doctor today and things are going just fine. I'm 29 and a half weeks pregnant and the boys are doing great. We will have another ultrasound next Wednesday and they'll check how much they have grown. In the meantime, we're taking care of ourselves and getting plenty of rest. Emma continues to be her happy little self, even when she has rough days, like yesterday. She bumped her head and bled. Later she rolled down the stairs and hit her head again. She kept falling all day. I was a rough day, we both cried together. Today has been a much better day, she's already taken a 3 hour nap, just had lunch and we're getting ready to play, my mom and the girls went to the mall and Ryan is at work, so Emma and I get to have fun! Oh... the fun has already started! I just got a funny smell... off to change a stinky diaper!

Sweet 16

Emma is already 16 months old!!! When did she turn into this little "Lady" that won't wear her shoes but loves wearing Nana's shoes (she can already walk in them!) Emma is in some sort of "stage" right now. She beats children up. She seems somewhat jealous of my little nieces and tries to bite them when they come near Nana or me, but most of the time enjoys playing with them. She only will nap once a day and lets Nana do her hair.


A little pregnancy update.
So, a few days ago I was at the mall and needed to empty my bladder urgently. I went to the restroom and as I was walking out, this old Chinese lady looks at me and says "are you due next week?" I said, no, I have 2 months left (it's really three but I count on them being early by 4 weeks or so). She gave me an evil look and pointing at my belly said: "Too big, Too big, you should stay home".

On a happier note, the boys are growing and growing. Two weeks ago baby Alejandro weighed 2#9oz and baby Benjamin was 2#4oz. Yes, I also thought they were a BIT too big for 27 weeks but the doctor said they were just fine. On the not so fine side, I failed the diabetes test and now they want me to do the 3 hour test, yuck! I almost asked him to just diagnose Gestational Diabetes and put me on a diet already! I hate that test! Three hours of drinking sugar and being poked! Gross!
