Thinking Pink


We are thinking pink at our house. The big ultrasound was today and confirmed that a baby GIRL was on her way. Poor Nico lost it, the little guy really wanted a brother bad. And to be honest I shed a few tears myself. I was dreaming of holding a little guy close to my face again. I know I will love this little girl just as much, I just need to adjust my thinking. I don't have to put away all my ruffles and bows. I do love pink.

I wonder who she'll look like, a Trost like Sydney or a Garces like Sophie? We shall see.

Cute Conversation


When my sister was here she came with me to my doctor's appt. in which the doctor gave me some pics of the baby. When we got home we showed the pics to Sophie in which she responded:

Sophie: Mommy, it naked.

Me: What do you think the baby should wear?

Sophie: Some of me dresses, and me crocs.

Me: How do I get the baby dressed?

Sophie: Down by you boobs!!!

No joke, that was the coversation.

She was dead serious too, which maybe was the cutest part.

Surprise Visits....

I usually feed my brother Cameron every Sunday. He lives in Huntington Beach and needs at least 1 home cooked meal a week so he heads our to our house. This last Sunday he brought a surprise with him. He came in the house and about 1 minute later the doorbell rang. Who comes over at 6:00pm on a Sunday? Nick answered the door and my sister Kelly was standing there. What? She came and surprised me for a few days. I was floored. I started bawling, hugged my sister and couldn't wait to spend the next couple days together.

Monday brought the visit of my Grandpa Welsh from Washington St. Cameron came back out to see him. We visited with him and his wife Carole for a few hours. It was heavenly. I was so happy to be spending that time with my family.


Please note my growing belly and fat face. Interestingly, I've lost not gained weight.

After they left, Kelly, Sophie, Mr. G and I headed to Cheesecake Factory for lunch. And we made a later trip to Costco and Jack in the Box. No Jack in VA. So my family craves it's tacos. Tuesday we went to a Baby Doctor Appt. and got my doctor's advice on what the baby is based on the Ultra Sound she did. (but I want to wait to announce anything until my official Ultrasound in 2 weeks) We shopped at The Shoppes at Chino Hills, ate some See's Candy and finished off the night with Yougurtland and Pei Wei. And of course Kelly and I stayed up late laughing over yearbooks and my scrapbooks.

She left early this morning and my heart is broken. I love their visits and my heart breaks when they leave. But I blame it this time on the baby and my hormones.

Can't wait for another visiter.
