So my goodness, it's been well over a month since I last posted and SO much has gone on since then. First and foremost, my nephew Spencer was born, and my goodness is he too cute for words. He was born on 9/2/09. He's our miracle, plain and simple. Spencer is the brother of angels Anthony, Mateo and Ian, who are in Heaven, shining down, so happy, I'm sure! :) Spencer is a super cute newborn. And no, I'm not just saying that because he's my nephew and I want to make my sister happy! :) I am saying that because he truly is! Most newborns aren't adorable, it's the facts. They look like wrinkly, old men. However, Spencer is a different story. He just looks so cute and wise. I could just eat him up! :)
Now, on to the 2nd bit of news...we are having a girl!!! That's right, I'm going to be a mommy to a daughter. It's still shocking! We found out on 9/3/09, and I don't think it's truly sunk in yet. Manuel is SO excited to be a big brother and even more excited that it's to a little sister (I can't wait to see them together! :) My hubby is also super excited. She's due 1/24/10, but will arrive via c-section 1/18/10, pending all goes well.
Things are good in the Gomez household. I have a tendency to "wait for the other shoe to drop" when things are going so well in my life (just the way I'm "programmed", I guess), but I'm trying to sit back and just truly enjoy life when it's going well. To praise God for the good times, and just "be".
Until next time...

To be or not to be...
That is the question! :) Well, sort of. Ever since I found out that I was pregnant with Baby #2 I was SO certain that we would NOT find out the sex of the baby. We found out with Manuel, and for sure I wanted this to be a surprise, well, until today. I made my appt for our 18 week u/s at the end of the month where we could POTENTIALLY find out the sex of our baby, and now I'm thinking "what if???" Should I find out? What if we are having a little girl? I need to prepare! And a million and one other things are running through my head, making me think we SHOULD find out. And some might say, "Well, ask your hubby" but here's the thing, my hubby will do whatever I want when it comes to this topic, so he'll be of no help! :) I posted something on my Facebook status about it and I've gotten responses pretty much right down the line...some say yes, find out, others say no, don't do it! I know it all comes down to our own personal choice and no one can tell us whats right or wrong, but still, it's HARD! I didn't even have to think about this with Manuel because not finding out was never an option. This time is so much harder!! Decisions, decisions, hmmmm. I guess we'll find out what we decide at 8am on August 25th when we have the big appointment! :)

Our baby
So I was having some pains and my OB wanted me to get a precautionary ultrasound yesterday. My hubby and I were so excited to get pics of our baby (My first u/s was at about 6w and it was still too early to get a good picture). I introduce to you Baby Gomez #2...

One more thing...
Not sure why those pics are so huge!! :) I hate not really knowing what I'm doing! But they were too cute to not share. So enjoy, LIFE SIZE! :)
Oh Baby!!!
Babies, babies everywhere!!! One of my oldest and dearest friends gave birth last night to a little girl...Adelyn Reese. Can I just tell you how much I LOVE that name?!?!?!? So cute!! I can't wait to meet her! :) Congrats to the new mommy and daddy!!!
My sister and her hubby got the 3D/4D ultrasound of our little miracle, Spencer, yesterday and can I just tell you he's too cute for words (perhaps I'm partial! ;) But seriously, it is just amazing how well you can see his little face, arms, legs, etc. In the one pic his foot his pressed right up against his face...how in the world do they stay crammed in there like that!??! Again, amazing! She is 32 weeks today, and I can't wait for Spencers arrival!
And while we are talking babies...my hubby and I are expecting #2! I'll be 12 weeks on Sunday. We still have a LONG way to go and I know that anything can happen, but we are super excited. It's crazy because when I was pregnant with my son I never thought about miscarriage, stillbirth, etc. I guess I was just so nieve to it all, but ever since my sister lost the triplets, and I follow so many women who have lost children, it is such a harsh reality this go round. I know I can't worry about it daily, the stress isn't good for any of us, of the "what if's" but I can't help but think about it!!!! I know it's all in God's plan and I have to take faith in that!!!! We are NOT finding out what we are having this time around. That was a HUGE decision to make, but after thinking about it, it is truly the ONLY TRUE surprise in life. And since this will most likely be our last child, we felt that it was a good decision. I hope I can stick to my guns come our 18-20 week ultrasound :) We shall see!!!

Really Jilly?
Okay, so I never really post and when I do it's about something sad or something COMPLETELY trivial, as this post! :) Oh well, at least I'm writing something!!!!! :)
My husband would say that I'm a reality TV junkie. I beg to differ. I do love SOME reality shows, and one in particular is The Bachelorette. As soon as Jillian got eliminated on The Bachelor last season I thought, "I hope she's the next bachelorette" and sure enough she was. I was so excited when they announced. But honestly, I've had about enough of her. I hope she is watching this season and kicking herself in the butt for the choices she is making!!!! I was watching the show last night, yelling at the TV, "Jillian you are an idiot!!!!!!" How in the world can she not see straight through slime ball Wes!??!!??!?!?!? I don't care if she's "in love" and love is blind, COME ON NOW, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see the kind of person he really is. And then when I saw that Jake was coming back to expose the truth, I thought, "Okay, FINALLY she is going to know, and kick Wes off!" My oh my, was I wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jake had NO alterterior motives in coming back to tell Jillian about the true Wes. It's not as if he was asking for another chance, or another opportunity for a rose! He simply wanted to protect her heart. So why did Jillian not believe him!?!??!? I just don't get it!!!! If she ends up with Wes at the end I may have to boycott the show FOREVER!! Please Jillian, for goodness sake, get rid of the slime ball!
Sheeewwwwwwwww, I feel better!!!! :)

Fathers Day
So, tomorrow is Fathers Day. I know that it will be a hard day for me, but I'm already getting REALLY upset about it, so I can't even imagine how I'll react when tomorrow actually gets here. Yes, I'm an adult (28 years old! :) and I should be able to control my emotions, but I'm a "crier" what can I say!??!?!? Tomorrow will be the first time in TWENTY EIGHT years that I will not be spending Fathers Day with my dad or at least being able to call him and wish him a Happy Fathers Day, and that's a tough pill to swallow! :( I'm sure he'll be having an AMAZING Fathers Day in Heaven, probably his best yet. And if I had to guess what he'd be doing, I'm SURE he'll be fishing, BUT that still doesn't make the pain any less real or me miss him any less. I'm sure tomorrow will be spent crying (while also celebrating, of course, because my husband is a WONDERFUL father!!!!) but I know my dad will be enjoying himself! :)
Dad, I love and miss you SO much!!!! Happy (early) Fathers Day!!! I hope you catch your biggest fish EVER! :)
Love,
Chrissy
Happy Fathers Day to all the men in your lives! :) Remember you never know when today will be your last day (or the last day of someone you treasure) so make the most of it!!!!
