My sister came to visit us this weekend and we had a little photo shoot in our living room. It was fun! Here are some of the good ones!

Our son at 25 weeks!

So we had our 25 week ultrasound appointment today and it went really well. The Dr. said that he looks nice and healthy. He also said that I'm right on track with my weight gain which made me extra happy! :) Mike and I can't wait to hold our little boy in our arms. We love him so much already!

This is his wrist and hand. It's kind of hard to see...
This is his face. It's much fuller now. You can see his cheeks and his chin!

This is another shot of his foot, just a little bigger this time. :)
Here's Mike's favorite. It's kind of like you're looking up his nose. You can see his mouth and his nostrils. Can you tell?

Mother's Day

While we were shopping this weekend, Michael bought me this dress for Mother's Day. I love it!

We also bought a Wii yesterday as our Mother's and Father's Day gift to each other. We got Mario Kart to go with it! Anyone else have it and want to challenge us to a race online?

Music for Baby

The other day, Mike's alarm clock woke up the baby. He started kicking which woke me up! So I figure since he can hear now, I should probably give him some more relaxing sounds. Especially since last couple of weekends he's been listening to loud hip hop! Today, he listened to Mozart. :)

Our Babymoon

This picture doesn't do it justice but our room was so nice and that bed was so comfy! Terrence and Mike ready for some fun in the sun. Mike wanted a cigar but decided that the robe would do.Mike looks cute and innocent here but he and Terrence were like crazy little kids in that lazy river!Rachel and I enjoying the poolsideDrying off for lunch and some shoppingThey had a vegetable garden!First things first... gotta satisfy that chocolate craving! I think Mike had a sympathy craving :)Aren't these the cutest little basketball shorts you have ever seen? Our boy will definitely own a pair!Mike sporting his new sunglasses. What a hottie :PMike fell asleep on the way back to to hotel after a long hard day of shopping floating around the lazy river Gettin ready to get our groove on. We had so much fun on our little babymoon. Thank you My Love, for making this possible. You are the best!

Happy 25th Birthday, My Love!

We started off the evening a delicious birthday dinner with Terrence and Rachel at a really good Cuban restaurant. Then we came home and sang happy birthday to Mike. We had some chocolate cake with extra chocolate chunks and chocolate frosting...served with triple chocolate ice cream. Yum! Mike got new shoes! Can you tell he likes them?

JLo Stole Our Thunder!

As you all may know, Jennifer Lopez just recently had twins. Well she decided to name her boy Maximilian!!! How dare she?! It's okay...we still love the name and are considering it. I must say she has a good taste in names! :)

Babymoon at the Marriot!

So Mike was selected to attend the leadership summit at the Marriot Resort because he's so good at his job! :) So it looks like we will have a little babymoon afterall! Doesn't that pool look so fun! It's going to be so awesome and we're so excited!

Grandma Sheilia's Potato Salad

We're going to a ward party tonight and I was feeling pretty gutsy so I decided to make potato salad. Mike's mom suggested I ask my mom or my aunts for a good recipe because potato salad could easily be ruined if you don't cook the potatoes right. So I called my mom who told me to call my Aunt Tina and my Aunt Tina gave me a recipe that my grandma used.My grandma passed away before I was born so it's a very special recipe to me. Well I followed her directions and voila! It has olives, dill pickles, hard boiled egg, and I can't tell you the rest...it's a family secret! hehe! I must say it is absolutely delicious! Doesn't it look scrumptious?!

Disneyland!

My mom decided to take my sister and I to Disneyland before I can't do anything anymore. So we went and it was a blast! The sissy rides were still fun!

Waiting in line...That's my crazy sister in the background.

So sad...So cute! I love them!What a fun day! Look at my belly...I think I popped this last weekend. Crazy!

Aunt's 50th Birthday Party

So my Aunt had a 50th birthday party at the mission in. It was so awesome. She performed a dance that was seriously, straight out of dancing with the stars. She looks so good. She doesn't look 50, that's for sure. Mike and I danced a ton. Mike was the life of the party...showing his smooth moves!

It's a BOY!

Evidence that it's a boy! Woo Hoo! Mike is on cloud 9!

There's his face! He looks like an alien!!! :)

Here is little baby Marshall's spine. Amazing! I can't believe what's going on inside of my body!
