Una reflexion./A thought

Me he propuesto como meta leer diariamente el nuevo libro de la Sociedad de Socorro Hijas en Mi Reino lo cual no tomara mucho tiempo en leerlo por completo. Anoche mientras leia la cita de la hna. Snow mi corazon y mente se iluminaron con una mejor comprension de mi Naturaleza Divina y Valor Individual.

I made the personal goal of reading everyday one chapter from the book Daughters in My Kingdom the history and work of Relief Society. I will finish reading it soon. In my last night reading the following quote touched my heart and my mind tremendously and helped me understand better my Divine Nature and Self Worth.

Quote:

If any of the daughters and mothers in Israel are feeling in the least [limited] in their present spheres, they will now find ample scope for every power and capability for doing good with which they are most liberally endowed. … President Young has turned the key to a wide and extensive sphere of action and usefulness.

Vamos a ser papas de un nino!

Max y yo (y debo agregar que la familia y amigos tambien) estamos muy emocionados por el nuevo miembro en nuestra familia. Supimos que iba a ser nino el 22 de Agosto. He empezado a actualizar la apariencia de mi blog (lo he demominado una Navidad muy azul) para que haga juego con la estacion en la que el bebe nacera (si tenemos suerte) el 27de Diciembre.

Tengo que reconocer que el embarazo es un desafio para mi el comienzo fue un poco dificil, el segundo trimestre ha sido genial y no puedo esperar mas para que el tercer trimestre llegue a su fin y tener este chiquito con nosotros. Durante esta semana he notado que el bebe se mueve dia y noche, quiero creer de corazon que es una muy buena senal, especialmente quiero creer lo mismo cuando tenga que arrullarlo por las noches.

We are having a Baby -Boy!

Max and I (and I have to say family and friends as well) are very excited for our new family member! We found out on August 22. I have already updated the look of my blog (I call it 'a very baby-boy Christmas') to match the mood and excitement for the arrival of our baby on (if we are lucky) December 27 this year!

I have to say that pregnancy is a challenge; for me the beginning was a little hard, the second trimester was great and I cannot wait for the end of the third trimester and see this little one! On this week I noticed that he is really active during the day and also at night, I want to believe it is a very good sign, and I will want to believe that especially in the middle of the night when he will be here.

August's gone and I'm in the middle of September already!

Time just keeps running and non-stopping, that is how it is!
On August:
I was born on a beautiful Monday morning on August 3rd, 1981. Yeah, I am a fine 30 years old lady now.
Max and I got married on a beautiful summer Tuesday noon the same day a year ago. Yeah, I was a nice 29 years old young woman back then. To celebrate my birthday we went out to shop for some maternity clothes, Max has good taste on women clothes, let me tell you! and we had cake.

The cake topper!

Macadamia cake and pineapple filling

will have to wait for a future anniversary.

The setting!

Our original wedding cake-topper came all the way from Tooele [thanks so much sister Lou (grandma vonNiederhausern)], but the heat ruined..it... sad isn't it! so we improvised and bough a small cake to celebrate.

We waited til the weekend to celebrate our anniversary by going to the movies, we watched the "the rise of the planet of the apes" a good movie and afterwards we ate some Italian food... to be honest we need to visit and learn about new places to eat.

Here is Max and the pride substitute.

La celebrada or b-day girl!
