35 Weeks

I had a doctor's appointment on Thursday to check on Easton. Everything is looking good, my belly is measuring right on schedule and his heart rate was in the 150s like usual, and my blood pressure was 132/80. My whole pregnancy Dr. L said we could talk about how I'd like to deliver if I felt strongly that I'd like to try a VBAC, but we've never made a final decision. Dr. L has said that I will for sure need an epidural so I don't have to be put under in case the C-section becomes necessary. Anyway, we finally finished the conversation. Because my blood pressure has been better this pregnancy he won't induce me at 38 weeks, but we're scheduling a C-section for 39 weeks (the week of Feb. 11-18th). I don't want to be induced again! So unless Easton decides to come earlier on his own, that's the plan for now.

I go back in 2 weeks for my next appointment, but we're only looking at around 4 weeks before the newest Trevino arrives!

Yee-Haw

Yesterday evening we went to the rodeo in Odessa to see Poppa rope in the Pro-Am team roping competition. Blake had so much fun watching the cows and horses (there was also calf-roping going on, too).
I'm still not convinced that Poppa actually got a professional partner because I was so not impressed with that guy's performance! He didn't catch the first steer and turned the second right on the wall so that my dad couldn't get a good throw in... But it was still a fun night!
Blake cheered and yelled and was waving across the arena. Now we might just have to buy the girl some boots!

Funny Girl

Now that we're getting things out and ready for Easton, Blake is exploring all the "new" toys that are really her old ones. She thinks she's real cute when she climbs in the Boppy bouncer! I'll hear her calling me and find her in here. So silly

Happy New Year

Blake was in full red and black spirit yesterday for the Red Raider bowl game! She watched some "oopba" as she calls football, and we played with all her new toys from Christmas. We went out for breakfast, but otherwise stayed in to watch bowl games, and had Tim's brother over for wings and pizza.
I don't have alot to blog about right now because this break went faster than I imagined it would. I had lots of fun and even got a little cleaning and organizing accomplished. I start back to work tomorrow... we'll see how I do waddling around my classroom this last month or so!

Goodbye 2010

2010 ended with a couple days of fever for Blake. I'm still not sure what the cause was, but it was 103 the first day, 101 that night, and 99-100 the second day. Just a little excitement to end the year on. We have been pretty low-key in celebrating New Years Eve for the past few years, most of the time not even staying awake til midnight... and this year was no different! We stayed in for a cozy night at home. Happy New Years!

Looking forward to our new addition in 2011!

Merry Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas break this year! I chose to post this on Christmas, but am actually writing it days after... Christmas Eve we went to the Children's Mass, which was adorable with the Christmas story being acted out and read by little ones from church. We went to dinner with my parents and my brother, and went home to bed to get ready for Santa in the morning. This is Blake's Christmas outfit for church -
and just to compare - here is Blake in her Christmas outfit for church last year!
On Christmas morning, we woke up at our normal time of 6:30, which isn't too bad for Christmas morning standards of being awakened by eager children! We'll see what happens next year! We opened our presents and played a little. Blake wasn't too interested in anything else besides the Cozy Coupe that Santa brought!
She kept saying "ca" over and over again. I think the gift is a winner!
We did manage to get the rest of the presents opened eventually.

After getting dressed, we went over to my parents house for breakfast and presents from Grandma and Poppa. GG Pebble and Bubba were there for the fun, too. (We enjoyed seeing Katie, Hector and Santiago earlier in the week, but they were in Houston for Santa to visit their house.) Blake's big gift was a tricycle!
We went home to relax for a little bit before Tim's parents and Juan came over. Grammy and Grandpa stayed for 4 days and enjoyed lots of quality time with Blake! We opened presents with them on Christmas afternoon, so we had a big day!
Blake loves her car so much, she even asked to eat her snack in it. So she ate a hot dog Sonic Drive-In style! ha ha.
Blake was showered with so many presents this year of books, clothes, toys, music CDs, a doll house, play kitchen and all kinds of goodies from the people that love her. She is a blessed little girl. I can't wait to have Easton join in our fun next year!

Christmas Card 2010

(Not the best quality due to scanning the picture in to create the card, and then scanning the finished product in... but you get the idea!)
