Pictures
Here is a picture of my Photo Session that I had done, I love this picture - just knowing Khloe is with me.
A picture of the cake from my Baby Shower
I've been behind, sorry! Exciting Updates
12/9: Heard back from the Pediatricians office and the doctor we want, is taking new patients! All we have to do when we go to the hospital is put him down as our doctor and that's that! Thankfully they do take our insurance =)
12/10: Today is my mom's birthday...David got carnitas from his assistant at work which my mom loves so she was really surprised and excited! Around one more month and Khloe will be here!
12/11: Ultrasound appointment...She weighs about 4lbs 10oz and the technician thinks that her due date is closer to January 29th give or take 17 days! So if I take 17 days, we are back to her original due date of the 12th...She was moving around a lot and playing with her right hand then she reached for her right foot and started playing with it :) The technician told me that she looks like me, has a round face and is pretty! She also mentioned that you're really low and your head is on my pubic bone. Later that afternoon, David and I went to Home Depot to buy blinds for her room and her Newborn Avent bottle set got delivered.
12/12: Javier at work gave me a $40 Visa gift card. It was supposed to be my last day at work but I extended it an additional week.
12/13: We had our Baby Express class at the hospital. We learned a lot! We were the best swaddlers in the group, but especially David =) He surprised me! Then my parents went with David and I to Elizabeth's house for her annual Christmas party and we had a lot of fun! Auntie Kristie got her an outfit and Auntie Elizabeth got her a cross and her first Winnie the Pooh book! We played the white elephant game and I had asked Khloe to bring us good luck and what did David get? An elephant with the trunk facing up (those represent good luck!) I hope that Khloe continues to listen as she gets older LOL. That night, I also had a dream about Khloe =) Can't wait to meet her!
12/14: Everyone has been telling me to make sure to spend time with David before Khloe is born so we decided to go watch Twilight and have dinner at Claim Jumpers. It was nice spending that time together...Next time we go out, we'll have a baby! I looked through Khloe's clothes again and Stefany surprised me with another cute outfit...A little shirt and a Hello Kitty jean dress from H&M.
12/15: I'm officially 9 months today! David started painting her room. David called Costco to check on the delivery time for the furniture and they told him it's 6-8 weeks and not 4-6 weeks! That's not what the website said so I'm for sure going to get some $ back!
12/16: David and I continued to watch the Lamaze video. We bought her car seat, Dreft detergent and sheets for her bassinet. I also had a doctor appointment and her heart beat 147bpm...She's little so another ultrasound is scheduled for next week. I'm effaced at 50% and dilated at 2cm. She told me to continue to take fish oil pills and prenative vitamins since I will be breast feeding. She told me that you can either be early or wait until your due date...really?!?! lol She told me that epidurals aren't bad and I'm brave if I'm going to try to do this without medication...She said she was able to feel your head and you're dropping!
Last day of work the 19th...Next doctor appointment on the 30th if she's not born yet!
12/17: Filled out maternity paperwork at work...bought a nursery bra and finished Lamaze video.
12/18: I shed a few tears while taking a shower and rubbing my belly cause I'm going to miss her being in there...at least I'll be able to hold her :) I finished writing thank you cards for people at work. David installed the car seat and we got a phone call that the furniture is getting delivered on Monday.
12/19: Got caught off guard when I saw her car seat in the car this morning. This is real...she's almost here! Denise gave me a photo album and Brian's wife made her a pink beanie (which she'll use to come home in) and some booties. David got me the What to Expect First Year book. I'm on maternity leave until June 2009!!!!!!!!!
12/20: David finished painting her room and installed the blinds...I helped him for a bit! Did a lot of cleaning.
12/21: My brother in law and his family came over and we watched a movie and played Wii. Jeanette and Precious felt the baby hiccup. My mother in law also came over and made us some yummy oatmeal.
12/22: Her furniture got delivered! We are missing the changing table so I will definitely ask for even more $ back! My dad came over to help me and he loaded all of my bags to his car and helped the guy with the furniture...If my dad hadn't have been there, I don't know how that little man that delivered the furniture would have been able to drop it off! So...I'm getting even more $$ now lol.
12/10: Today is my mom's birthday...David got carnitas from his assistant at work which my mom loves so she was really surprised and excited! Around one more month and Khloe will be here!

I've been slacking....
11/17: Dr. Appt., gained 2 pounds. Her heart beat in the 130's which has been the lowest it has ever beat! My stomach measured 30cm when it should have been closer to 32cm. I have an ultrasound on 11/26 and my next follow up appointment on my birthday (12/01). The bloodwork my doctor performed during the last visit came back normal. I got a handmade pink/brown blanket from Frank at work.
11/20: Had our benefits meeting at work. David and I need to make smart decisions for our insurance and we must find a good pediatrician ASAP!
11/21: Melissa at David's work gave him little gloves, socks and headbands on a bow! It was so cute =) Melissa's mom also made Khloe a pink and white scarf.
11/22: We had the maternity tour at the hospital. We also registered at the hospital to make it easier for us when the day comes :) We learned that white noise soothes babies...weird...
11/23: My parents got the Diaper Genie and 6 refills for us! Less things for us to buy. The craving for the week were cheddar and sour cream Ruffles!
11/24: Lisa at work gave me a blanket and little toys. Cathy made announcement cards abd a litte gift box set from scratch! It included little bows, a Babies R Us card, diaper pins, mittens and a belly bar for me.
11/25: Had a small baby shower at work. We had banana and chocolate cake (my favorite) with champagne and cider. Since I have been getting a lot of gifts throughout the weeks, not too many people were able to make it plus it was a crazy day at work!
11/26: Ultrasound = the technician said her head was way too low and couldn't get a good measurement. She thinks I'm 31 weeks and due January 26th.
11/27: Happy Thanksgiving! Celebrated at Beverly's house then at the Martinez' house. I ate so much but everything was so good!!
11/28: Black Friday! We were in line at Babies R Us for the Baby Einstein jumper at 2:50am. We also got wipes, newbor diapers and a little toy. We got everything else we needed for our nieces and nephews!
11/29: Went to the boxing match at the Citizens Bank Arena with David and my parents. We had VIP tickets and were in the 6th row. We also went to Amber's 25th pj party. The band was playing so loud and you would kick! I took inventory of the gifts we've gotten so far and David put together the bassinet/playpen.
11/30: My mom cooked for me for my birthday =) Stefany got me the Ed Hardy perfume set I wanted. We then went to have cake for my nephew's birthday (we share the same day). Ceci, Daniel and David's mom saw 4D pictures from the 2nd ultrasound since they hadn't seen them. Ceci hopes that she has curly hair and light eyes. She said that she has David's nose.
12/01: Happy B-day to me! Had Dr. Appt., and she said that Khloe is still due January 12th and that she is very peitite. She said that she weighs a little under 4 pounds when she should be closer to 5. She wants me to go get another ultrasound to make sure that she keeps growing. Her heat beat 162pbm, the fastest it has ever beat. She mentioned that she was hyper. My stomach measured 32cm.
12/02: David and I went to Costco and got the Aveeno bathset. It was only $11.99...usually everything in that set is $5.99 if purchased separately =) Jen made me "mormon" cake for my birthday at work!
12/03: Got a gift card to Babies R Us from Mariella. David and I went to the store and bought a Boppy, Gerber burp cloths, fedding spoons and a toothpaste and brush set (which they're supposed to start using at their gums at 3 months!). Ordered the Avent newborn special online which is originally $29.99 for $15.00 but since I had a coupon with tax and S&H I only paid $18 =) David was playing the guitar at night and Khloe seemed to be enjoying it because she was moving a lot!
12/04: Andrew at work got Khloe bottles, a cleaning brush, desitin, Baby Einstein book and a rattle. We went to the store to buy a jogging stroller and David assembled it. With giftcards, store credit and a coupon, we only paid around $115+ tax instead of $159.99 plus tax! We are trying to save as much as we can. Stefany is going to buy the high chair so I also gave her a coupon lol
12/06: Heloisa came to vist and brought us wipes, a blanket, a toy for the high chair and a car seat toy, and Huggies lavender/chamomile bath products, which I really liked! My parents had the De La Hoya vs. Pacquiau fight and we did a poll and David and I drew rounds 6 and 8. Since the fight was stopped in round 8, we won $100 =) Khloe brings us a lot of good luck so I may have to go buy some scratchers or lotto tickets! Since my mom's birthday is on the 10th, we had a lot of people over and celebrated my mom's birthday. We had Lamaza Class at the hospital and we learned a lot of relaxation techniques and David was the one that needed to learn the most since the class is mainly for the support person. We went home with a DVD to watch since we took the express class.
12/07: Drew secret santa names at my parents house. David and I went to the store to buy Angel and Alex their Christmas gift. We also got Melissa her birthday gift =) I was craving frozen yoghurt so David and I went to get some at a new place by our house. It was really good so we may have to go get some more soon. David made us carne asada tortas for dinner which were delicious!
12/08: I stayed home from work today because I am sooooo swollen that it hurts to walk or move around! I have been doing laundry and trying to clean a little but I'm mainly just resting. David went to the doctor because his ear has been hurting a lot =(
LVM at the Pediatricians office which was recommended by my doctor and by the instructor during the lamaze class. Hopefully he is taking new patients at this time...Keep your fingers crossed please!
