It's Been a While Without Pictures

I can't believe she's almost 8 months. Look at how big she is!

False Alarm

I called my doctor's office today to find out the results of my pregnancy (blood) test. It's negative...so no baby right now. But it's official that we're trying. YAY, baby!

FINALLY...

SHE CRAWLED!!!!!! Even though she was sick all weekend, she managed to crawl and stand herself up. She even says mama now. Actually she says," Ah ma, ah ma." But it's the same to me. She's still calling for me. I was getting worried that she would never crawl and just start walking. She started pulling herself up almost a month ago. She just decided to take her time. She wanted to learn how to make funny noises, laugh and scream first before she started to crawl. Now I'm constantly holding on to her so she doesn't crawl off the bed. Everyone told me that once she started crawling, I'd have my hands full. They were right, I am going crazy but it's the good kind of crazy.

Mommy Freakout #2

Ugh! I thought we would make it Mina's whole first year without a sign of a cold or illness. Unfortunately, Jose passed his sickness to Mina (and to me). Our poor baby has been sick all weekend. She has a stuffy nose and is coughing to the point that she sounds like a little seal. I called the nurse (and my mom) and they gave me a list of things to buy for Mina. She has her cough medicine and her saline drops. She has Vicks baby rub and a little vapor plug-in for her room. It's such a pain in the ass giving her all of her medicine. She's pretty good with her cough medicine but it's absolute HELL putting those drops up her nose. I don't blame her one bit. Luckily, she's getting better. Maybe once she's better she won't be sooooo clingy. It's to the point where I can't leave a room without her crying.

I Have a Confession

I MIGHT BE PREGNANT...AGAIN!!!!!! It's been about a month and a half since my last period. Surprisingly, I'm not worried or stressed. I'm actually excited at the thought of another baby. Yeah, I know, Mina's only 7 months. But if you think about it, she would be over a year old in 9 months. I think it's a good age gap. Not too close, not too far apart. I've taken one test already that came back negative but you never know. I might just have my doctor do a blood test. Till I find out...
