Hey you hot stuff! Yes, you, with the topaz eyes, that hot body, I’m talking to you.
Yes, you woman, destined for me, smile, laugh out loud at my whistling,
laugh at this man who is like a child when it comes to love.
But, get ready for tonight.
I am coming for you like a savage beast driven only by instinct.
I am here, prowling the alleys, the streets, the cold, for you.
The wind cannot consume your aroma, the day hides you in vain,
because night is coming. And I, for you. Prepare.
The clock is ticking, the day goes on with it’s mundane things,
laborers working the hard earth, men in white collars changing the world,
but I, I lie in waiting, submerged in the fog of desire, lust, love,
counting each tick, each tock, waiting for the hands of time to point my way to you.
Oh woman, I’m going to take you on a hot date tonight, and you will not forget it.
I’ll make sure tonight, you will have a happy birthday indeed!
*Yup, this is my way of saying Happy Birthday to my wife. I love you beautiful*
Update: The wife got sick so there was no “Hot Date”

Love,
You make me happy. I feel the happiest I’ve ever been in my life. I thought that taking you off the market by proposing to you was a great time in my life. Then I thought I couldn’t be any happier when I married you. And then you told me that we had a fruit of our love in your womb and my mouth trembled, my body shook, and my heart, oh my heart leaped a canyon, it flew with your words.
But now Love, now that you have brought her into this world, to me, to us, to share our love, I once again come to you like a simple man, without words to describe what I feel. I come to you, my wife, to thank you, thank you for loving me, for giving me purpose, life, for Seanna, I thank you. Monica, wife of mine whose name means to counsel, whose laughter echoes in my smile when I speak of you, I love you, I love you my love, like a madman, like a child. Thank you for this blood of my blood, flesh of my flesh, love of our love. You and Seanna make me complete, you two make me happy.
-Your Husband.

I am now in my 20th week and I am feeling the baby’s presence more and more each day. For the past 4 weeks, I have been feeling the baby’s flutters and tiny kicks. Its so amazing knowing that you are carrying a living being that is solely dependant on you. A being so fragile and beautiful that is growing each day, and letting his/her presence be known. Its all part of the beauty of becoming a mother. I already love the baby without even seeing him/her and I can envision myself holding the baby for the first time. I find myself talking to the baby and caressing my stomach more…
Everything is changing. My body is stretching, getting bigger and its getting harder to find clothes to wear everyday. I’ve already had to go out and buy a few things, including this thing at Target called Belly Band, its great! It allows me to be able to wear my regular pants without having to button them.
In the beginning, I couldn’t really see the big picture, it has always been just me, or Alex and me, now we are going to add our own little person to the family, it’s a wonderful feeling. I am happy, excited, anxious, I get worried if I accidentally bump the baby, and have started to talk to him/her and smile each time because I know that its no longer just me, the baby gently flutters and lets me know that he or she is there, alive and kicking.
On May 10th 2009 was my first mother’s day, well I guess pre-mother’s day. Alex had left to Nicaragua, but before leaving he had left a special delivery. It was a beautiful bouquet of colorful tulips, and the note that was attached was just beautiful- it brought tears to my eyes:

Both my sisters gave me cards telling me congratulations and how they can’t wait until the baby is born and how they know that I will be a great mother, it was very touching and sweet.
I have received a lot of support from family and friends. It is no secret that we are in the baby boom era amongst our friends. Our good friends Diana and Christian, Paula and Aaron, my cousin Monica and Pat, Alex’s cousin’s Michael and Lou, Jackie and Daniel, and Laura and Dan. We are very excited about that because there are many play dates and parties to come. My parent’s are both very excited to be grandparents, I have noticed a softening of my dad’s heart, and a tender smile knowing he is going to be a grandpa. My mom is being creative and has great ideas for the baby. My aunt has sewn a blanket for our baby, I haven’t seen it yet, but I thought that was just great! My big sister, Carolina has been a big support from the beginning, as soon as she found out, she ordered a journal online and shipped it to me.
I’ve been reading articles online, books, and journals to learn more about what is going on with the development of the baby and what to expect. I tell you it is amazing the things we wouldn’t normally know.
For instance right now the baby measures about 6 inches and can fit on the palm of your hand! Imagine that? How cute! By now, the baby already has fingerprints, nails and hair. His skeletal and nervous system is also now formed and his brain functions can now send signals to the rest of his body to move legs, arms and fingers! Our baby can finally hear us! How amazing is that? I am a little concerned because we all know how loud Alex can be sometimes, our dear little baby will be calm minding his own business and then gets startled by him, haha! but I am sure the baby will finally realize that it’s a Downs thing.

A few of you have expressed interest in knowing the details of how it happened since I didn’t say anything on the first blog entry. To keep this PG, unfortunately for all of you I am going to have to skip the best part of how the baby happened.
I’ll start from that Sunday afternoon when I went to practice with my dedicated soccer team. When I returned home as soon as I was turning the knob in the front door, Monica semi opened the door and told me to close my eyes. “Nice!” I thought to myself. “I just gotta take a quick shower and I am ready to roll.” She held my hand and guided me into our bedroom. I stepped into our love room and I could distinctly smell the roses she had placed all around. I was ready to open my eyes and put some love music, you know? Some “Let’s get it on” by Marvin Gaye, some R&B, some “Your body is calling me” by R. Kelly, you know, some of that good stuff. I was smirking, grinning like a teenager about to get some action, thinking, “Man, I must have done something good!” I could feel my body temperature rising. But nope, forget about it, I opened my eyes and the first thing I see is a basket full with a stork, baby paraphernalia, a handmade card, a champagne bottle, 2 Cigars and the golden glow of some twenty candles that did not match Monica’s smile as she told me “We are pregnant!” My reaction? You can read it here.
