Week 13

Neck pain is finally subsiding. However, my lower back is now starting to hurt a little while working out. This weekend was Matt's B-day. We went out for dinner (me, Matt, Mrs. M, Andrea, Mike, Keith, and Karen) to La Fiesta. The guacamole was great the rest was okay. I love my Pepi's enchiladas. From there we went to a bar and met Andrea's boyfriend. He is very friendly and we had a good time except I couldn't hear anything over the loud music. Matt was trying to convince me to name baby (if girl) Angelina Marie. I am not fond of the name! Mrs. M likes Emily Rose. I really like Sofia, Layla, Lana, Olivia. We will find out sex in 6 weeks.

Week 12

I have Gained 6 pounds so far uggg. My stomach is enormous! I haven't been able to work out due to work schedule hence the weight gain. Hopefully, next week I can step it up. Friday night was really bad pain/stomach issues. I bought the huge pillow and it hurts my neck haha. I am having trouble sleeping and was up every hour this week. I am still having trouble with drinking water and I am prob overeating to stay hydrated ugg! It's hard just drinking plain water. Matt is getting a little more excited. I am very happy that this is the last week of 1st trimester. I had 2 hot dogs and cheese fries last Sunday. As I am eating them, my SIL tells me that (as she is only eating a salad) that she only gained 15 pounds with her 1st (she was 19) and she ate grapes all the time. What about protein and good fats? UGG! She didn't mean any harm I am just sensitive. I do eat healthy but I do like my dessert and bad foods once a week. I also walk a lot and stand on my 40 hours a week. I am no sloth! The following Sunday Mrs. M made me strawberry shortcakes I was craving. We also had Nicks' grill chix gyros and I picked up some potato salad. Matt has been making home made french fries.

weeks 10-11

We had our first ultrasound! It was in 3D. I am convinced it's a boy. I really wanted a girl but maybe it's a blessing since when girls grow up they are ruthless. lol! Either way I hope it is healthy. We haven't picked a nickname yet. Right now it's Alien Maheras or little Alien. WE decided on a boys name. We really like Anthony Rocco Maheras (ARM)hahah. For a girl MAYBE Angelina Liberty Maheras. I'm not crazy about the name because of the actress Angelina Jolie. But Matt loves that song with angelica the waitress at the pizzera hehehe.
Little Elli was adopted. Her new mommy called us twice to tell us she is doing good. We miss her a lot.
