Proud or Petrified?

When Madi was a little girl I only let her listen to soft classical or church music.  Dad can't seem to keep Cy away from all this Rock n Roll and as a result this little guy feels music like no other. I'm a bit petrified by his intensity.

Cy decided to operate on Mike's back while he was taking a little break.  When I told him to look at me like a doctor, he replied that he is "very serious" and gave me this look.  He wanted Mike to report to me how good of a doctor he was every couple minutes.  Definitely proud of this moment...love my Cy.

Esti Arrived!

The details of her birth are too special for me to post on a blog, but little Esti finally came after a long and tough pregnancy.  The world has stopped and we are in heaven.

8 lbs. 2 oz.

22 inches

Dad and the kids partied it up the night before Esti came by making homemade popcorn.  Cy has decided he wants to be a guinea pig, and insists Dad carry him around everywhere in his guinea box.

Valentines Memories

Since I have nothing special for Mike this Valentines (other than delivering our BABY!) I thought I'd find an old video of us that was shot Valentines weekend 6 years ago.  I was booked for a "modeling/acting gig" for a time share development, but they were struggling to find a male partner to shoot with me in the video.  I recommended Mike, and a few days later our tickets were booked and we were off to South Padre Island.  We had such a blast shooting this together (though I think Mike was a little camera shy), and to top off the job... Mike Proposed To Me!   I thought some of you might get a kick out of this video...especially those who know Mike well.  (we don't appear till 30 seconds in)

Happy Valentines!

Over It!

I had a strange feeling this pregnancy wouldn't be like the others.  I have officially been pregnant 40 weeks, 2-3 weeks longer than I went with Cy and Madison.  I feel awful, stressed out (for reasons I may explain later) and am swollen with these 50 extra lbs.  I'm over it and am hoping my doctor will "help out" with that tomorrow.  To be continued...
