Now that Scarlett can sit up I put her in her bumbo for the first time. She seemed to like it! For a little while, anyway...
This is Miss Scarlett getting sick of the Bumbo.

I haven't posted in awhile, and I still have no pictures to share, but I thought I'd put a few words down anyway. (Let me take that back, I have pictures to share, but I'm not the in-love-with-my-pregnant-body type, so any picture you see of me will be from the neck up.) Last night we took Christmas photos at my parent's house for their Christmas cards. (Again, I was seen only from the neck up:) ) It was so much fun. I forget how much fun my family has when we're all together. Jimmy took it upon himself to set the room up like a photography studio, even though Mom was just taking the picture with her tripod and self timer. Mom made delicious chili and corn bread and we all sat around and basically showered Chloe with attention. Juan and I had to leave early because he's sick (sinus infection) so I had to get home and baby him. I told him it was pretty funny that his 7 mos. pregnant wife was hauling herself off the couch to get him his little face warmy t...
Scarlett Eve Valdes was born Saturday, February 17th at 10:34 AM. She was 8 lbs, .02 oz and 20 inches long!! It was a pretty awful labor, for both of us... I went into labor Thursday night, got sent home, and then at noon the next day realized that this was serious!! I waited until Juan got home from work and then we went to the hospital around 3:00 PM. I was in pretty heavy labor from then until she was born the next morning. Not very fun! I ran a pretty bad (and unexplainable) temperature while in labor, I think I peaked at around 102 degrees. Because of this, the baby was wisked away to the nursery for observation. Luckily she does not have any signs of infection, but she does have jaundice, so they're keeping her under the blue lights. It's hard (hard being a mild term, it's the most awful thing I've ever experienced) being home without her but I know she's getting good care and hopefully she can come home soon. Meanwhile, Juan and I have pretty much moved into ...
I'm the worst blogger ever! My only excuse is that late pregnancy is agonizing (and I mean that as dramatically as possible) and that I think I have every uncomfortable symptom there is. Anyway, here's a list of things that have been said to me lately that I think some might find amusing, some might sympathize with and others might not get the big deal about: 1. Bagger at grocery store: "Looks like you got a big load there." 2. Co-worker of Juan's and someone at meeting: "You carryin' twins??" 3. A sympathetic, nice lady: "Oh honey, aren't you due yet? You look so uncomfortable." 4. Stranger in Wal-Mart (which explains a lot, actually): "That's gonna be a big baby." 5. My mom: "[The above comments] are actually compliments. They mean you look pregnant, not fat." (What???!!) So I technically have two weeks left, but I won't cry if the baby comes out sooner. Other than the dirty dishes in the sink...
