Over 2 weeks!

Wow, it's been awhile. We've been busy. So here are many pictures and I'll quick recap the last 2 weeks.

I guess big highlights began on Tues 10/7 when my OB/Midwife measured me and I was smaller than the 31 weeks I was supposed to be. Being small for dates is not good for a baby, so the next day we got to see Little T again. I was very happy to hear that she is growing fine (in fact she measures at 32 weeks...big like her brothers). So perhaps she is just tucked in there really well... much better news than she is not growing properly.

Late Wed 10/8 Mario's brother Micheal and sister-in-law Sarah and our goddaughter Maria arrived for a visit. We all got together at the Kaza's house Thursday night. 4 sets of Suarez married couples with their kids. Tabitha and Babu +7 kids, Mario and I +2 kids, Michael and Sarah +1 kid, and Mary and Ryan.

Michael with Maria (14 months) and Joey (21 months)

Actually, 3 of us were pregnant (Tabitha's baby Simon is about 1 month old now). So, here are 3 sisters-in-law all pregnant. Mary 5 weeks, Sarah 27 weeks, me 31 weeks (we took this while rushing out the door to the ER....more on that later).

Joey kissing Maria. We had a fabulous dinner and a little bit of fun, it seems Joey had too much fun. Uncle Ryan was swinging him around, as many uncles and dads do, but it caught Joey the wrong way and he dislocated his right elbow. This is called nursemaid's elbow, it happened to me by an uncle when I was about Joey's age. Sarah and Michael watched MJ while Mario and I went to the ER (again!) I was a little embarrassed to have to bring Joey back after his recent stitches. But everything is fine, it is an easy fix. I hope it doesn't happen again so I won't have to pop it back in.

Cousins at our house.
Friday Tabitha brought her crew of 7 up our way to play at the park. (She is really amazing). It was a gorgeous day!

This is so cute of MJ and Joey and they got in this position on their own.

Friday night, my mom and dad arrived for their visit (more on that later). Saturday morning, Sarah, my mom and I hit up the Catholic consignment sale. Mario was worried that we were gone for 3 hours, but we go some good stuff. Then we had an ND football game watch at our house (the Kaza's joined us as well).

Sarah and I had a picture like this with our little ones last year.

Joey and Catherine look pretty cool! Joey is actually 2 1/2 months younger than Catherine.

Maria was a trooper all day, and we asked her to take some pictures before she left. I was happy she got cozy with me.


The whole gang. Next time we are together, there will be 2 more kids!
