Spending time with the family on the holiday

On Saturday night, we gather at my sisters house. My brother wanted to test his aquitments for the new year bash. We bought drinks, and made a nice dinner after. We went to the living room and started dancing and later in the evening we started singing Karaoke. I had so much fun the only problem was the I couldn't really dance much. Since I had to run to the bathroom everything I stood up to dance. Everyone was looking out for me. They wanted to make sure I was doing well since I am so far along the pregnancy. I laugh and cry so much from everyone trying to sing karaoke. Even my mother was trying to sing it was so funny. I really enjoy the time I spend with my family this weekend.

Looking for the Babys Crib

The day after the big storm here in Boston. I went with my friend looking for the baby's crib. It was a mission, we went store by store and nothing. At one store we went after we purchase the crib, the warehouse workers came back and said this crib been recall. I was so sad, because I really wanted my baby's crib.Then we went to the mall and there we saw another crib this one was white. But I didn't really like it, not the crib I was looking for. After a while I give up it was useless everywhere I went I couldn't find the crib the I wanted. After we were done with our shopping, I drop off my friend home. Then I went straight to another store the I needed to return a double gift the was given to me at my baby shower. When I went to the store after returning the gift, I went to the baby section and there it was. The last crib in the shelf as if it was waiting for me. Just the crib I wanted and on top of that It was on sale. What a bargain I got on the baby's crib? It was exacly what I was looking for but better.

My last ultrasound

On my last ultrasound the pictures came so clear the were able to see her noise,Eyes and lips. I think she is going to look like her daddy. It was so exciting to see her in there she is bigger and fuller. She is so big the she didnt fit in the picture they took. It was exciting to see my 5yrs old niece open up her eyes wide and when amaze by the picture of the ultrasound on the Tv monitor. It was a very exciting day for me and for my nice.

Feeling a somewhat worry about the baby

Lately, I have been feeling worry about me and the baby. Am afriad to get postpartum depresion. I been getting alot of crazy thoughts in my head. I keep thinking an I going to be a good mother. Will my child love me?? and even If I get postpartum depresion would I harm my baby. I dont want that but I heard so much stories and the news about mothers harming their child. I dont want to blackout and so something crazy. I think I should just keep my mind busy and think positive thoughts. I have talk to my husband and my family about my concerns they told me I am going too ahead of myself. And the I have my husband and my family there the I shouldnt worry because they are going to be close to me. And after writing this post I know things will be ok. I guess sometimes we need to get things out of our heads to see things better and brighter.
