29 Week Update

Mommy is sick. She has been miserable since Friday. First all stopped up, then her nose ran like never before. She thought she had gotten over it for a minute, but nope, it's still lingering. She thinks it's moving into her chest. This is not good for me because when she coughs i feel it. Not to mention she is getting dad sick.

Well we went for my appointment yesterday, and I gained some more weight. I am now approximately 2 pounds 8 ounces. Mommy thinks I am gaining weight to fast, but dad thinks I am right on target. We'll see who wins this argument when I'm born.

A cousin is born

My cousin Ava was supposed to be born on January 27, 2009, but she couldn't wait. Ava Jean Childs was born at approximately 12:20 a.m. on December 28, 2008. She weighed in at a healthy 5 pounds 9 ounces. Mommy is hoping to be so lucky with me. Mom is sick right now so she can't take me to see my new cousin, but I know she is beautiful. Hope she likes lady bugs.

28 Week Update

Ok so mom and dad drove me out to Glendale this morning. Oh yeah Miss Aisha came with us to. So why were in glendale might you ask. We were getting a 4D ultrasound. Really it's the same as a 3D ultrasound with the added dimension of time. Not that it was needed since as we already know I'm not much of a mover. So we arrive and mom fills out their bs waiver about this scan being for entertainment purposes only, and dad pays the lady for my session.

We start the session, and I and not up for being seen. I mean really it's Saturday morning and I need my beauty rest. So I cover my face with my hand, and they just keep looking at me. When I don't move (duh), they start shaking mom's belly to wake me up. So that they can leave me alone, and I can get back to sleep I move my hand out of the way. Well that didn't help much since I my feeding tube (the umbilical cord) was covering more than half my face. Well away they kept snapping, and moving mom back and forth. Finally they got a few clear pictures of me and just that fast - it was over. Mom wasn't exactly excited with the results, but she was overjoyed to see me. Check out the 3D shots of me on the photo page.

Alright talk to you next week.

27 Week Update

I'm gaining weight. Mom and dad went for my 27 week appointment today. Well I'm gaining weight. I weighed 2 lbs today. Despite gaining 11 oz in three weeks, I am still measuring 3 days small. That's it for now. I'll update you guys later.

I'm growing or something

I figure I must be going through a growth spurt. I am making mom eat more than ever. I am hungry like every hour. Mom doesn't know how to deal with this sudden onset of ferocious eating. I don't think she likes it, but a growing boy needs his nourishment.

Mom took me L & D again

I have been causing mom some moderate discomfort for the past two days. Strong, tight feeling in her belly. Not contractions just a really tight painful feeling. Doesn't make her feel so hot. Well to top things off, mom went to the restroom, and didn't like what she saw. So off to L & D to see if everything was ok. They hooked mom up to the baby monitors, so she got to hear my heart beat. That always makes her feel better. Mom's nurse Julia was really nice and Dr Malik from our unfortunate visit in the ER was there to help mom out again. In the end everything was fine, they just think mom should rest a bit more.

Mom says I bit her

Me, mom and dad were sitting at the dinner table the Las Vegas CPK. At around 9:51 p.m. I sent a strong blow to mom. She swears it felt like I bit her, but I don't have any teeth yet. She's always complaining she's not sure if I'm in her belly. Well I guess I showed her.

It's confirmed

I am a boy. There are even embarrassing photos of my little man parts. See.

I'm lazy

Well mom stopped feeling my little flutters so she has her panties all in a bunch. The nurse asked her to eat "A Real Meal", not those snacks she normally feeds me. After she finished the meal she wanted mom to lie down and count my movements. If I didn't move 10 times in 2 hours she was sending mom to the diagnostic center. Well needless to say, I'm lazy, I only moved 4 times in two hours, so off to the hospital mom went. She had a really nice nurse named Danielle. She talked to mom and made her feel real comfortable. They kept losing my heartbeat on the monitor, so Danielle couldn't leave mommy for more than a few minutes at a time. Dr. Patel came in and checked mom out. She said I was doing fine. I was just laying there, sideways, not really moving at all, but I had a strong heartbeat, and lots of fluid around me. This news made mom feel much better. She was afraid something had happened to me, but turns out, I'm just lazy.

The Triplets are born

My aunt Shelly just gave birth to triplets (11/19/08). Two girls and one boy. Look at the picture of Ian, Ilyanna, and India.
On November 19, 2009 the newest members of the family were born. Ian Nathaniel born at 11:51 a.m. weighed in at 3lbs 6oz; India Mila born at 11:52 a.m. weighed 2lbs 12oz, and last but not least Ilyana Amber born at 11:53 a.m. weighed 3lbs 3oz. They came into to the world after a 30 week stay in aunties belly and her enduring 12 week long hospital stay.

It's a . . .

At approximate 3:55 p.m. Wednesday, October 22, 2008, our ultrasound technician proclaimed "it's a boy". Christopher was so quiet at hearing the news I thought he had passed out. To my surprise he quietly smiled and giggled. We are excited and cannot wait to share our new addition with all of you.
