Cramps And Cravings

Mom is still not feeling well.

Last night she had egg cravings, so she had two scrambled eggs, lightly cooked by dad.

She also started craving bread – cinnamon raisin bread, that is! She had two toasts today, along with some pineapple juice she made herself.

But cramps and nausea continue 🙁

I hope the medication works and she feels better tomorrow.

Searching Stores for a Journal…

Ok people, my mom is not really a blogger, she’s more of a 20th-century pen-and-paper kinda person.

So, today, she set out to find a nice paper Journal!!  She wants to use it to write down her thoughts, for me to read someday. Oh man, it was such a loooooooong afternoon and things were a bit shaky in here. Apparently we visited every store in a 15 mile radius. I’m not sure yet how long a “mile” is but it did feel like intense exercise.

We didn’t find anything that pleased mom 🙁

We’re going to look online (that’s more XXI century) tomorrow…

My First Formal Attire!

Oh, what a surprise!! Look at my first party clothes!!!

I’m told it’s a gift from aunt Silvia, uncle Alfred and cousins Flor and Niki! Such a cute gift, these people must be real nice 😕 can’t wait to meet them!! Apparently, they live in a place called “Rosario”. It sounds interesting, sort of like “real-serious”. These clothes are imported from Rosario! I’d like to get to know that place someday…

My First Ever Picture!

My First Photo!

Taken by a friendly nurse at St. Barnabas Medical Center, in South Orange, NJ, who wanted to charge dad $100 to enter the examination room and see “the show”! Already a big baby, 1.79 cm (0.70 inches) tall!

Why don’t these machines take pictures in color? Or do they?

Craving Cookies…

And this is one of mom’s first cravings… Vanilla wafers! 🙂

It was sooooo hard to find them. And even then, we were not sure these were the ones she liked. So she tried them. One. And the rest was for dad 🙂
