Belly Shot Friday's are back! Week 9

I started the Friday belly shots with Gigi between week 9 and 10 so it is only fitting to start again at the same time  with Baby M #2!! I know I have said this before, but I can't believe the little "pancia" (aka belly in Italian) or as my family calls it "bonzi/bonzette" I already have... this is the weird time between my regular jeans/pants and soon to be stepping into my maternity wears. I actually got all of my maternity wears out today because I have a feeling that time is coming sooner than later and I LOVE IT!! Onto week 10!!! My second OB is on 10/2 and believe it or not that is the end of my 1st trimester already!!! How come this time everything seems to be going by so fast? I think I need to take a moment and really enjoy what is happening here haha!!

CONGRATS to Melissa, Kyle, ad Presley!!

Congratulations to the Von Tersch family!! I am so excited my beautiful friend Melissa is pregnant!!! She is 2 weeks behind me! It all started when Melissa had a pretty in depth conversation with Sal at the Picture People when we were getting our kiddos pics taken about getting pregnant together this past Summer haha. I wish I could have taken a picture of Sal's face.. I mean Sal and I  talked about it but very casually and Melissa was like a bull LOL!!  When I was pregnant with Gia and Melissa was with Presley the girls were originally 7 weeks apart, but Gia came early so the girls are about 3 weeks apart. This is truly amazing to be able to go on this journey of pregnancy together once again my very dear
friend.  I am so so so excited. I love you very much and I can't wait to start taking our belly shots AGAIN!!!!!

Gigi in her play tent!

Gigi has found a new little haven! I have never seen her so happy in this tent... her own little space and play area, as if she did not have enough already haha. She LOVES rolling around in there because it is so cushioned and loves playing peak a boo with us while she is in there... ahhh our little Gigi you are just the best and never cease to amaze Mommy and Daddy!!! WE LOVE YOU... OUR SWEET PRECIOUS LITTLE LOVE!!

Little miss walker!!

Week 9 of being prego!

Already this pregnancy is different as I know it would be. I am for sure showing faster in my boobies and belly! The thing with the belly at this phase is that it is more bloated than actual baby as the baby is only the size of a green olive this week. So, I am not near maternity clothes, but the bloat makes me feel  like I can sink a ship. Haha ...I am much more hungrier for EVERYTHING too. Not for junk, for good and hearty food.. preferably meat .. which was the same with Gia. But, all of this is starting much sooner with this pregnancy. All is going well though and I feel great! Belly shots are on the horizon!!

A visit from Uncle Eric!

Is it a bird? A plane? NO! It is Baby Mastropolo #2

YAY!! We are so excited for Baby Mastropolo #2!!! I am currently from my 1st ultrasound above 8 weeks 3 days. The baby's heart rate is nice and strong at 180 bpm and my 1st ob appt. went awesome. Sal was with me and Dr. Hu and his MA Barb were so happy to see us again it was hysterical! I am due April 15th give or take haha... Gia is going to be a big sister to hmmmm who knows? We have about 11-12 weeks until we find out the sex. We could care less, the health of our little bean is what is most important, but we have some bets going that it is going to be a boy this time, we shall see.. In the meantime, I am feeling wonderful..  a little tired, showing a lot faster than last time which I heard is normal, and pregnancy brain is in full force.  Today's appt. made it all so real and we just could not be any more happier!! I go monthly now for my OB's and here we go on a wild surfing ride!!! YESSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!

Happy Labor Day 2012
