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.
