Happy Special Fathers Day!

Oh my gosh what a weekend of fabulous event this was.

On Friday night Mario and I spent some time with our crazy friends! They always manage to keep me smiling! :)

Saturday we went to our usual spot (Dolphin Mall), ate lunch, walked for a while and caught the Hulk. Which was a great movie- Gaby for the first time in a long time didn't ask to go to the bathroom. She actually fell asleep.

Sunday, we had a BBQ at my mother in-laws house and boy was I hungry! I did start to feel a little yucky.

Mario had been bugging me the entire day to buy a pregnancy test just to see if I was pregnant. But I didn't want to spend the money since I already got the "pimple of the month". Guess that didn't stop the soldiers!

So we got home and here I go and pee on this fabulous stick. I for sure thought "no way it's going to come out positive" Then I noticed a + sign, which I never saw in the previous test I have taken. I read the instructions right away and started calling Mario's name over and over and over. Poor guy didn't know what to do with himself. But I finally came out of the bathroom and said "Happy Father's Day Daddy # 2" He didn't believe me at first until I showed him the test and the manual. Typical Mario had me drinking Cranberry juice for the second test. BOY OH BOY that other + - couldn't appear any faster!

We were actually very very calm to all the news that happened in literally 40 minutes. I texted all my friends and he called his sister.

Yesterday I went to my moms house and started talking to her and my sister about me not being hungry (which is a big RED FLAG). I really didn't tell her straight out MOM I'M PREGNANT b/c I was mortified since the first time around wasn't too pleasant. So I just told my sister and she was dying to tell my mom. Which I know by now she opened her big mouth and told her already. My mom has that 7th scent so I'm sure she smelled be a mile away. But as long as I didn't get the speech I got when I told her about Gaby, I'm happy.

Right when I got into work on Monday, I called my doctor (who also delivered Gaby) and changed my appointment date to July 11th. The Nurse actually told me I will be getting an Ultra Sound and hearing the babies Heart Beat! I am about 5 weeks along and feel a little blah.

So ladies and gentlemen let the puking, crazy hormones, and belly growing begin!

I leave you with this picture when I was about 7 or 8 months pregnant with Gaby.

Pictures, Pictures, Pictures- Oh how I love Pictures!!!

Gaby's graduation was this weekend. Mario couldn't make it :( She did soo good performing her Teddy Bear song. So proud I am of my little one. I also met her 2 BBF's from school, Sharon and Sofia. Such cute girls those two are and their parents were such a pleasure to meet. Of course it was great to finally put a face to a name and all the stories Gaby tells me. Sunday my mother in-law had a BBQ at her house with her remodeled back yard and brand new BBQ that she had to sport with it.

Here are a couple of pictures as Promised.
