our last weekend as a family of two
Today was my last day of work until 2012. I wish I could say the same for Jerry though.
We are scheduled to induce on Tuesday, October 11; unless of course Baby Castillo decides to make a grand entrance earlier :]
We are spending our last weekend as a family of two enjoying time together when Jerry isn't working.
With the next post we should have pics of Baby Castillo!!!!!

catching up on the past month
A lot has happened in the month of June...
Alexis' cradle came and in and is BEAUTIFUL!!
We won a FREE convertible car seat from Baby Earth!
Alexis' changing table came in and looks amazing!
Jerry and I painted Lexi's room and it looks great! (it's light pink but looks purplish with the lights off)
I decided to trade in the blue diaper bag for something more universal! :]

Crib and other things
We picked up Lexi's crib today!
For some reason our back seats don't collapse to allow larger items to go through the trunk into the back seat. Stupid Toyota!!!
So, after we took the crib out of the box so it would fit in Jerry's car we ate dinner and headed home to put it together. (Note: I supervised the entire process mostly :] )
Eventually, my sweet husband had the crib together and it looks AMAZING!! Of course, he complained because he couldn't believe it didn't come with the mattress, haha!
(Pics to come at a later date once room is complete)
For now, here are a few other baby item pics of the badass Britax B-ready stroller, car seat and lovely coach diaper bag :]

Baby Castillo
It's been forever since I've updated this darn thing.
If you don't know already, we are EXPECTING...and...it's a GIRL!!
Her name will be Alexis Malia Castillo, Lexi for short.
Malia was a close friend of mine who passed away about 5 years ago. We met when she was my supervisor at Joe's Crab Shack and quickly became friends. She always taught me to be proud of who I was no matter what. She encouraged and inspired me to always go after my dreams. I know she would be honored and proud that our daughter will be sharing her name.
We've already picked out or crib and know what type of theme the bedroom will be. If you don't know already, then it will be a great surprise. I will tell you that the crib is very modern and sleek.
I've been feeling some flutters in my belly lately that I'm assuming is little Lexi moving like a jitter bug. Jerry says I'm just passing gas, haha. I think I know the difference :]
Fortunately or unfortunately for Lexi I am not a fan of those big flower headbands, bows or anything else that looks completely ridiculous on a baby occupying 1/3 of their head.
Also having a mother who's a probation officer and a father who works in juvenile detention poor little Lexi will have little room for making trouble.
18.5 weeks and counting. October can't get here soon enough.
Oh, Jake and Lucy are sad that they will lose mom and dad's attention to Lexi come October. We'll just give them a few extra treats to hold them over :]
As for me, to show my love and anticipation for Lexi, I've sold my 3 day ACL 10th anniversary tickets (earning some extra cash at the same time). Kanye West, Stevie Wonder, and Coldplay...another time my friends. Port-O-Potties aren't a girls friend, so I think I'm making the right choice.
Until the next update...all you need is love.
