Slideshow of 2010 Highlights

It's been a wild ride this year. I must say watching Mike receive his diploma after so many years of hard work was very moving to me. I remember sitting in our Miami Beach apartment 10 years ago agreeing on this plan. This year also marked Mike and my ten year anniversery. It feels like just yesterday I said "yes" in San Diego. We took wonderful vacations, spent some time with good friends and family, had, what could possibly be, our last Michigan Summer together, and watched our kids grow.The news about the triplets only solidified how amazing this year has been.

17 weeks and counting

Well, it has been a fun 4months so far. Now that I started my 5th month, my body is a becoming a science experiment with things changing and moving quicker than my psyche can get used to them. If there is one thing that is different about having triplets, it's the incredible number of people who will look at you and say, "Gosh, you're huge since I saw you last." The first twenty times, I must admit, hurt a bit. Now, I expect it any time I step foot outside my house. I see that people post their cravings on their blogs. At a 4000 calorie a day diet, all I crave, besides a prilosec, is naughty things like salad and fruit. The nutritionist told me that if I had room, I could "cheat" with a few of these low calorie treats. I must admit, I have a cheat day each week where all I eat is 1500 calories and to hell with the recommendations, I eat fish, fruit and vegetables. It is nirvana.
     The best part of the 5th month, coinciding with the Christmas holiday, was finding out what we are having.  Tah-tah-tah:


TWO GIRLS AND A BOY!

Everyone is happy. Eva gets a gaggle of minions, Golden gets a baby brother to pass down his knowledge of Star Wars and Bakugan to, and Mike and I are happy it wasn't three girls. How many nails is that to paint? Now all we have to do is come up with names.....stay tuned.
