Neenie will get me Big Bird Sneakers!

From the time I was born my Aunt Regina spoiled me every minute of everyday. She was my favorite aunt, my godmother, my Neenie. She STILL is and STILL spoils me everyday ha. My father always tells me that when I was about 3 months old he had to lock her out of the house because she kept bringing presents and they just couldnt fit anymore. She got in anyway..and the presents too. She bought me my first day of school outfit EVERY year and my lunch box too. Took me out shopping and I could pick whatever I wanted. I still remember picking out my Menudo lunch box in kindergarden.

When I was about 5 years old I think, my mom took me shopping for new shoes. I wanted to get these sneakers that had Big Bird on them and velcro straps. They were awesome. But my mom wanted me to have good shoes that would last and be more practical. I was not very happy. So when we got home I called Neenie immediately and reported the news to her. "Neenie!" I said "I waaaaaaaaaant Big Bird sneakers".
And of course I had them by the next day.

HA! My Aunt Regina has told me that story 10923012938 times in my life and I love it. When I found out I was pregnant my Mom called Aunt Regina and left her a voice mail "I have some news for you, call me back.. but you better start shopping for Big Bird sneakers" Neenie knew exactly what she meant and FLIPPED out! So excited.

Now I didnt think Big Bird sneakers even existed anymore... but leave it to Neenie to find them. We had lunch at her house yesterday and look what the baby got. OMG SO CUTE!!!! I can NOT wait to put these on those little feet! Love you Neenie!

Baby at 12 weeks, Momma at 15 weeks

Hi everyone. So yeah we are not so great at keeping up with our blog but we have some updates for ya. We have GREAT pictures from the sonogram at 12 weeks. I got to see the baby kicking its little legs and arms around and even doing flips. No wonder I'm still nauseaous.. this baby doesn't sit still. Sounds like the apple didn't fall far from Daddy's tree ;)
The appointment was at the imaging center at NY Methodist Hospital. This hospital is awesome and I am SOOO excited that I get to deliver there. It's clean and beautiful and everyone there from the janitors to the doctors are so nice. But the best part is that it's 7 blocks from our house AND.. the baby's GG, Miss Cheryl Ann Moore, was born there too! Can you believe how cute that is? Baby and Grandmother born in the same hospital over 60 years apart! Maybe we'll even be in the same room ha.

Check out the pics from the 12 week ultrasound. You can see the baby's spine, brain and little toes. And Jon is convince you can see a penis but I'm not sure yet. ;)















And here's a pic of me.. Momma at 15 1/2 weeks. The belly is definitely getting bigger now!!
