I have an appointment tomorrow so I guess thats when I can really update u on the baby..As far as what Im feeling, The baby moves constantly, and now I can see him move not just feel him.. Im always staring at my belly, yea u pregos do it too lol. I hope he dont come out pissed off at mommy for waking him up sometimes ( sorry lil Angel), but I just love to feel him move, It also makes me feel like hes doing good..Another thing is I feel like Im starting to get braxton hicks bcuz my stomach will cramp up for a minute then go away, and they dont feel too good let me tell you, so I can just imagine what real contractions feel like..OMG!!! scary to think about but I'll be alrite, especially when I want to give birth naturally, yea I'll be ok (my a** lol) All this will be so worth it, and I cant wait to see my son...By the way, we may have a name picked out, Its a combination of my name and the daddys name... ~*Angel Johanis*~ , aka Baby AJ...Im in love with it. Im glad thats out of the way..because it wasnt easy, since I was getting picky..Thats all folks, 4 now, more to come... We miss you guys in NEW YORK, love you all far and near, we are all close in the heart.Thanks for being there for us..Hugs and kisses..from ~Jo and Aj~,

IM SO FRIGGIN SLEEPY TODAY!!!!

Its all good!!

Wednesday, 12 Dec

Hey ladiez and gentz, I hope everyones happy.26 weeks and I am still feeling pretty good. The only thing kicking my azz is this insomnia I get at night. Its not like I spend my time sleeping all day because Im at work. I find myself tossin and turning like if the baby wants me to move to the other side. Its getting real aggravating. Do they have sleeping pills for pregnant women? If not, thats going to be my invention. Other than that, I have no complaints whatsoever. I do want to thank Baby Aj for being so good to me, I hope he's like that when he comes to this world. I will be the best mother I could ever be to him. Mommy love you Johanis!! I feel him move more and more over time. Its funny when he catches me off guard with a good punch or kick. I can only imagine what it will be like when he gets more strength, oh boy! I have my 1 hr glucose test next week, piece of cake! I love orange tasting anything! I hope I pass it. Everything else is pretty much the same. My belly aint no big thing but its growing. lol I can still fit into some of my shirts. NO JEANS!!:( I have like 50 pairs just sitting in my closet. oh oh new thing, my ankles are getting swollen. It has to do with all the sitting at work. All I have to do is walk it out and it goes away. Time for me is still flying by, In ten weeks its gametime. Well thats it for now, If I think of anything else I'll let u know. Oh yea Im upset about all my messages being deleted though. Im sure we all going through this but I have no choice but to get over it. They used to bring me to a certain point in time. They will be missed ( sob, sob) ANYWAYZ, Have happy and healthy pregnancies and lives!!! xoxoxo

Wednesday, 16 Jan

Hey every1, I hope everyone is in good health.. Im doing so well that I hope my next pregnancy is the same exact way..yea I said next bcuz Im still trying for my girl, and yea Aj is cool wit that lol.. I had my appointment on 1/11 and the doc revealed that I passed my sugar test..woohoo!!! Im very happy about that, Im weighing in at 176 pounds!! Scary but the truth..oh well, its all belly bcuz I blew up this month..So for all those who say my belly so small, blah blah blah!! just wait :)....... let me c..what else...Not much going on so I cant think of anything to write....Well my lil man man is moving so much, the best feeling ever is to sit and watch my belly move like oceon waves..Its funny to see my belly pokin out more on one side when I get up in the morning, more the right 2, hes got a thing for that side lol..and its really low now..Im guessin hes getting into position real soon that Im wondering if I will make it to my due date...Theres still so much I need to do to prepare for his arrival, I just wish I could stop the clock for that reason, and then I cant think of anything else but holding him in my arms already!!...This has to be the best experiennce of my life, and I wouldnt change a single ache or pain of it..I know my baby shower is coming up soon, exactly when is a mystery to me because they are trying to keep it a secret...but I think in my pst lifetime I mustve been a detective bcuz Im determined to find out lol I dont want to spoil anything but they have to try extra hard when it comes to me lol but once the baby shower is here I can really start nesting..Im still working bcuz bills wont stop coming in, but a positive is that Im working only part time, I wish I could contribute more but theres only so much us pregos can do at this point, u know... I do fear in failure to take care of things bcuz AJ is the one taking care of 80% of things financialy, and thats tough..so I can only imagine when its 100% on his part...but we can get through it, God was sure when he put us together that we can figure it out, I love him dearly (preggie moment lol).... Well my appointments are every 2weeks now, and Im deciding wether I want labor in water or regular..Since Im opting for all natural, I think the water delivery is sounding real good, tell me what u think ladiez..So Im starting my countdown now bcuz I dont know when he will b ready..What if I go past my dute date!!?? It just feels like hes loving it too much in there lol, no cramps, no nothing...oh my god!! I CANT WAIT!!!!...Anywayz its time to feed Johanis becuz im starving (9:00am) till next time, you all be safe, happy, and healthy....mucho love and besos to bellys!!!! xoxoxo

Aj had our lil one jammin (songs from cell phone)

Monday, 21 Jan

Welllllll.....I FEEL LIKE CRAP!!! Yesterday we got a cool breeze with lil rain and think I thats how it started..I also had to go inside of the coldest supermarket ever..So I couldnt sleep last night bcuz my back and bones were aching, I couldnt stop peeing, and could not get comfortable with a headache.. As of right now, My eyes wont stop tearing up, I feel weak, and I have a bad cough....So I FEEL LIKE CRAP! worst of all Im at work,..ughhh! This is not a good way to start the week, I should call my doc and c what he says I should take..but Im really nort feeling it today... :o(

Friday, 25 Jan

Ok so Im back!!!! This bug had me feeling like if I caught this cold in like 10 degree weather..Just out of this world!! Thankx to Aj for taking care of me so well..He basically did everything for me, and god blessed him bcuz he did not get sick..It was an ugly week but he made me feel absolutely beautiful.. So I love him so much for that :o) .... right when my pregnancy is almost over I get sick but it wasnt my baby that got me sick.. He mustve got angry wit me for tossin and turnin so much and for giving him that yucky robitussin lol...It just felt like this would never end... Im at 95%of being fully recovered, I just need for all this nasty stuff to stop coming out of my nose and throat, other than that Im all gooderz :o) Ive got an appt today so hopefully all is good wit my boy, and I hope this didnt affect him at all, even though he sure dont act like it with all that movement.. I cant believe Im at 32 weeks, which is also 49 days..Unbelievable!!! but I couldnt be happier with the way hes cooking :o) Now that I got my energy back I gotta get started on gettin lil mans stuff ready for his arrival...So with all that said I hope my next entry talks about how much I cant wait to see baby Aj and how much I love him and my hubs, and not about no stinckin cold... Lataz...xoxoxo to all!

My back is killing me!!! and Im feeling more pregnant than ever If its not one thing its another, Im sure u can all agree.. Great news is that cankles are GONE!! yeah..but they should be back any day since I sit at work all day...but man o man I feel like Im gonna need a walker pretty soon bcuz Its hard to even do that sometimes with all this weight, all I want to do is soak my feet and put a heating pad on my back and call it a day... Ive got approx 5 weeks left (OMG!!) but no worries bcuz me and baby are all packed and ready to go, I feel like I lifted some weight off my back by getting that done...So we went shopping with grandma over the weekend and filled up the bags, now I truly feel like hes right around the corner but theres still soooooo much to get done. My baby shower is coming up in like 2 weeks so Im looking forward to that alot, and coincidence that babysrus is having a sale up until that day! So I hope everyone takes advantage of that.. Im starting to pee alot and I think I got my first true BH yesterday, where I had to pause what I was doing and just look like a statue lol so u know I cant wait for whats to come :oI So yes Im feeling it from all ways.. I also had a doc visit last thurs and he told me that BABYS HEAD DOWN!!! I got excited about that bcuz I thought it wouldnt happen in time, so hes getting a rush right now to the head lol..If u think about it, babys are skilled, bcuz i know I cant eat upside down! lol Everything else was looking good.. My appts are now every week and next I will be given my chart (med record) so that in case that time comes Ive got all my info ready to show..OMG Im so close! and my pregnancy just went by too fast with no signs of slowing down! Im just gonna put my face forward and do the dang thing with a big smile (like the pic above) lol what else can I say but I cant believe Im so blessed, God is truly divine! and I thank him for making this first experience a wonderful one, that i wouldnt mind going thru it again..but the mission is not complete so I hope I can keep my words after I give birth lol To my baby: Mommy and daddy love u with all our hearts and are going to give u all that is in us, so make mami and papi proud and come into this world safe and sound..We cant wait to meet u! kisses!.... and to all who have joined me and helped me out, I say thank u, u are all one of a kind..Good luck and may god bless u all! Much love sent everyones way, xoxoxo!!

My pisces baby!!!

To my one and only: I LOVE YOU!!!!!

Week 36! what more can I say but I feel something besides my lil honeybun inside and thats butterflies cuz I know it can happen any minute now... and wow did the time fly for me, seems like everytime I say that another week passes by lol... I feel hugemongous!! I have a doc visit every week now and my last one (feb 14) I found out that I gained 4 pounds!! Wow, is what I said..here I am thinking Im not gaining more weight but here comes that last minute weight...regardless Im absolutely in love with how my belly turned out looking...I mean not to brag or anything but I have no stretch marks and it is perfectly round.. It really does look like I swallowed a basketball.. Ya `ll know that means I cant walk into no sports authority store cuz they might tackle me down thinking im thiefing one of their balls LMAO!! p.s. somebody will get knocked out if they tried.... Im still feeling good, but this weight wont let me walk for long periods and it kills me when im sleeping... but if thats all I gotta deal with right now then I do consider myself blessed, I was truly expecting the worse at this point, looking like an elephant was my fear but it paid off to eat right except now bring on the ice cream!!! yea and I wonder where the 4 pounds came from lol...My baby shower is comng up this sunday!!!! YEA YEA It was supposed to b a surprise but remember I said b4 that I shouldve been a detective, well I think I shouldve been an interogator bcuz I ask and they spill lmao!! Its all good bcuz it will still b hella fun.. I hope lil AJ gets alot of goodiez.. My next appt (feb 21) the doc should b checking my cervix and tell me what position hes in.. Im still workin easy for that money lol but my last day may b on the 7th of march, still hustlin :o) and by then my nails should be getting cut real short bcuz I promised Big AJ I would lol He told me if I didnt he wont come in the room lol I dont know what would make him think I would hurt him lol....PUNK!! lol... My son (cheesin `) will soon be here and I know alot of u are close with me..This wonderful journey is almost coming to an end but its going to be the start to a beautiful beginning.. I cant wait to finally be mommy!! xoxo kisses to all bellies!! I `ll b patiently waiting to post that birth story soon.. ~mucho Amor~

After a rough week, a big surprise was heading my way... On thursday, the ladies at my job threw me a SURPRISE BABY SHOWER!!!! I was so shocked and had because I had no clue lol I guess me being a detective is going out the window lmao!! But women do it best becuz we know how to plan and organize things, feel me.. Here I was thinking dang they caught me dozin off and there goes my job lol, well I walked in this dark room and all of a sudden hit with the girls yelling "SURPRISE".. I didnt how to act, Im not good at surprises bacuz my face turnt so red that I had to walk out the room lol but OMG!! They had a cake, finger foods, juices, and bagels.. and at the other end of the table were gifts galore!! I couldnt believe how much they all went out of their way for my baby, Ive only been working there for almost a year?!! Well I started unwrapping gifts after gifts after more gifts..wheww!! They got me a winnie the pooh high chair, swing, bouncer, baby tub,diaper bag, and sooo many outfits..I also got bibs, blankets, and a photo album,...I was sooo happy, and guess what?! My official baby shower is on sunday!! So I thank God for blessing our baby.. We dont have to get anything but diapers and and other lil things thanks to everyones kindness.. Im glad to have such wonderful people in our lives..So here are a few pics of me at work enjoying the moment......

Tuesday, 26 Feb

SPEECHLESS... Thats the word that described my baby shower this past sunday.. Ive got to thank GOD first and foremost because he `s power behind everything that happens in my life, and I `m truly grateful for all the blessings..and the blessings where countless because I had such a perfect baby shower.. I also thank my mother that put so much effort and time and sweat into making it happen...as well as Aj `s mother that was able to get us all together and throw such a beautiful baby shower.....Well, I finished putting on my final touches, making sure I looked perfect for pictures from every angle lol.. I was unpatiently waiting at my moms house to get picked up to go..They were running a bit late that I was so anxious I almost drove myself there lol but finally the moment came, and the waiting was still there bcuz now my mom and auntie that picked me up had to get ready lol So u imagine lol A few mins later the moment was really here, I waddled to the car with my seat belt on and was READY! we arrived at the park, and when I tell u it was perfect, I wouldnt want it to happen any other way..Winnie the pooh balloons flying everywhere, all the tables dressed up, music jammin, and FOOD!!!! There was so much food we couldve fed the whole park, so we all had a feast! Aj was waiting to see my face (although it wasnt planned surprised, I was still left without words) and he was the first face I saw.. Congratulations was coming from everywhere that I didnt know where to start..I couldnt stay in one spot with so much to do and so many people.. I shouldnt be worrying about no cankles lol We danced and mingled, and then my favorite part of the day came...GIFTS!!!!! The gift table was so piled up, that it was overflowing from the table to the floor..I sat in MY beautifully decorated chair with blue ribbon and Aj stood right next to me as we opened gifts.. My first gift to open was a HUGE bag filled with everything the baby needs, we mustve spent like 10 mins with that one gift lol everything from wipes to hangers, bibs, pampers, lotions, bottles, washcloths, a carrier, and etc was in that bag..If I try to write everything I got I might leave something out because it was so much..My baby got a high chair, matress, bottle warmer, rainforest bouncer and tub, nursery set, bassinet, diaper genie, hamper, monitor, sooooo many outfits, and almost with ever gift came a pack of diapers and wipes. The list goes on, so basically I got everything I wanted for lil Aj plus some.. The gifts still dont stop coming because hes also getting a crib, dresser, and changing table on the way.. I absolutely loved the whole day that I only wished that it didnt end.. but everyone had a great time, and so many people came, even down to the last mintue.. The park closed and we were still trying to wrap things up being the last ones to leave.. We filled up a big pick up truck with gifts inside and out as well as my own car.. Aj got a good work out taking all that stuff upstairs.. It looked like babysrus inside my apartment, with no space whatsoever in my living room..It was the kinda mess I was so happy to have and look at.. but I was so exhausted that I called off from work on monday and recouperated becuz I was literally on my feet for 12 hrs.. but the fun didnt stop the next day because I still had gift cards, and yes I used them well so we went shopping.. Man it was so much fun, and finally today im gonna attempt to organize things, even though I looked through everything every chance I get lol Thanks to everyone that came to bless us.. I will never forget that day..
