Baby # 2 - Week 11

Week 11 Weight - 1 lb Inches - 4 inches Like -  Just a whole bunch of random cravings everyday Dislike - People, terrible I know, but true. Week 11 was fun, I am less tired than before, still feeling nausea though. The tooth brush problem I had being pregnant with Antonella is back with this little one. Every time I brush my teeth I end up gagging, Caleb laughs, and I just breathe and pray I won't throw up haha. Most of the time the nausea...

Antonella week 49

  Antonella week 49   Antonella keeps growing by the hour and making me laugh with all her amazing faces, smiles, melt downs, words (all 5, mama, dada, bye, hi, cha -which means chao-), games, kisses that hurt, and just self.  She has been eating a lot lately, generally she will have a puree of vegetables mixed with a fruit and then she will share with me whatever I am eating. She loves rice and eggs, and she loves turkey...

An afternoon at the park

We decided to go to balboa park and spend some time at the kids park with Antonella. It's a park for older children but Antonella is so curious she had an amazing time. Park time is fun for the Luehmanns!...

Baby #2 - Week 10

Week 10 Weight - 1 lb Inches - 4 inches Like - Anything from Colombia, figs have been a big craving, I want figs with arequipe (Colombian caramel) all the time. And I only have two figs left. Dislike - Nothing in particular This past week was interesting, I didn't sleep much from headaches and nausea, so I was a bit tired throughout the days. This baby is making his/her presence known. My throat was hurting throughout the week and I started...

Antonella Week 48

Antonella Week 48 Teething babies are cranky, and a little funny. Last week Antonella was running a fever and was fuzzy, but her demeanor wasn't super different, she was just hurting! She started grinding her teeth, which sounds like nails against chalk to Caleb and I. We give her teething toys and teething pills, but she still gets really frustrated at times and just makes faces like the ones in this pictures. It's cute, and hard because I...

Antonella Week 47

  Antonella Week 47 Do we all realize Antonella is but a few weeks away from turning 1!! This is crazy to me, crazy. I can't believe I have an almost 1 year old in my hands, she is my baby.  My baby and all but she seems ready to grow up. Taking pictures of her is more and more challenging, she will not sit still. She knows how to get off chairs and couches now, so she will hop off before I can get a nice picture of...

Baby #2 - Week9

Yes, she is eating a leaf // Si, se esta comiendo una hoja She was biting on it and wouldn't let me get it out. // La estaba mordiendo y no me dejaba sacarla   Week 9 Weight - 2 lb Inches - 3 inches Like - I still want coffee desperately, and fruit juice from Colombia.  Dislike - Nothing in particular This week I am either super bloated or you really do grow a lot faster with your second, phew. When I measured my waist and...

4th of July

This year was our first year having 4th of July not living downtown, and we wondered what we were going to do. Well turns out Pool Momma and Pool Poppa were in town for the holiday and staying in a hotel downtown, so we celebrated it where we have every year. We had a great time and Antonella's first encounter with fireworks was a huge success, she loved them and kept clapping at them. Alayna joined us for the fireworks and then...

Baby # 2 - Week 8

Week 8 Weight - 0 Inches - 0 Cravings - Coffee and red meat Dislike - Sweets ugh, and random smells that trigger nausea. So here we are, taking pictures on 4th of July. This week nausea started coming more consistently. I haven't been throwing up or anything, but I feel nausea constantly and have to stop whatever I am doing and just breath and breath and breath.  Fatigue is still my nemesis, I am so tired I fall asleep everywhere and...

Antonella Week 46

Antonella Week 46 July is here, and with it the last month my baby is not any years old haha. How did time go by so fast? I can't remember so many things, I am grateful for videos and pictures, but my mind fails me when I try to remember her the first few weeks. She was so tiny, I was so new at this baby business. I still feel so new at it and I am already planning a first birthday, kind of, I have ideas and a pinterest board.  My...
