Rock Star Baby Shower

Jose truly went all out and planned the best baby shower ever! He thought of every detail and made it so special in honor of Baby Sebastian. The theme "Potty" Like a Rock Star was complete with a red carpet, ropes, posters and even Chachi was a door man who let everyone in. Jose also flew my Cousin Catie down from Massachussets which made me cry by the way. :) It was an amazing day that I will never forget. Sebastian is already so loved by all of our family and friends. We are so thankful for everyone taking the time to come and for all of their love and support during our pregnancy.

Sebastian's Nursery

Jose and I have been busy finishing up Sebastian's Nursery. We did have lots of help too. Tio Danny and Tia Lourdes helped paint and put in the floor while Jose put up the chair rail. We had 2 artists come and paint an amazing tree mural complete with an owl and a racoon. Then, Grandma Ellen and I put up the scrapbook paper leaves on the tree. We had a blast as you can see in the pics. The racoon gave me the inspiration to finally find bedding! I ended up with a forest theme and it is too cute. Poppy Ken and Grandma Ellen even gave us a black 'S' for Christmas and we hung that off a branch. The last touch was the quote over Sebi's crib. Jose and I love going into Sebi's room it is now our favorite room in the house.

32-33 Weeks Prego

At my last Dr. appt Sebastian was about 3 lbs already! But the doc said he is right where he should be. Jose wanted to take some silly pictures so we hope you enjoy them; especially the air guitar one. I know...how cheesy. Sebastian has been moving a lot still and we are hoping that he turns a little bit more so that he is head down and ready for an "easy" delivery. Hey, I can hope cant' I? LOL

Disco Party

It has been super cold over the last few weeks here in Florida. We went to our friend's Denise and Stu's house for a Disco Birthday Party for Denise and we were all bundled up. It was fun to see everyone's 70's costumes including Kim and Ward. Jose and I just wore our normal clothes....I know how boring are we. It was fun though and we always love going over to see their house. It is beautiful!

Belly Update

Over the last couple of weeks Sebastian has been moving so much! When Grandma Ellen and I went to church the night before Christmas Eve all of the music had Sebastian dancing. All of the sudden I felt his head or his tush push out and he was moving non stop until the music stopped. It was really great to feel him move so much. So, here are the belly update pics.

Also, last weekend we had professional painters come and paint a tree on the wall in Sebastian's room, Grandma and Poppy delivered the crib they got for us, we found a changing table and stained it black to match. And Grandma Ellen and I cut and pasted paper leaves onto the tree. Sebastian's room is really coming together. The bedding, matress and quote for the wall should arrive tomorrow. We aren't putting up any pics yet because we want to wait to show everyone at the baby shower. But, all we will say is that we love going into Sebastian's room already. We are anxiously awaiting his arrival.

Merry Christmas!

Christmas morning Jose and I opened up our gifts from eachother. But, Winston had his own plans...he wanted to help open the gifts all by himself. Jose was like a little boy opening his. He was so excited to get his X-Box 360 and I loved the special mommy charm bracelet from him. I can't wait to wear it after Sebi is born. After we opened up our gifts we went to Grandma Ellen and Poppy Ken's house for even more gifts and a yummy ham dinner with all the fixins.

Feliz Navidad

Jose's family came over to celebrate Christmas Eve at our house. We had a great evening full of homemade tortillas, rice, beans and grilled chicken. Abuela Maria had just arrived from Texas this week and it was so nice to see her. She even brought Sebastian a gift from Mexico; a handmade hat with his name on it. We put it on the snowman. It is too cute.
