Ok people, we're almost there! 2 and a half more days and we will be flying into Mexico! We've gone through our suitcases several times, once more and I'm sure we'll be set. We left our little apartment in Lake Tahoe exactly a week ago and headed down to my dad's until our flight. So this past week we have been chilling with family and doing any last minute rounding of things we may need. Oh and we also sold our car! That cleared a lot of last minute worries, I was getting scared that we weren't going to sell it by the end of the week.
Our little Maya has kept us on our toes all week! She's growing up so fast, and she has sooo much energy that I really wish she would share! I'm hoping she handles the move well. I have been trying ever since the decision to move, to tell her what was going on. This was especially hard when she saw our little apartment slowly empty. Towards the end we were only occupying the livingroom, besides the uses of the kitchen and bathroom of course. But I'm wondering if all the change is slowly getting to her, she had a nightmare last night were she was kicking and screaming but she was asleep! Eyes closed and everything... But I could be wrong, I could of sworn she was screaming, "is mine bread!". (???). Though I'm sure that she will feel better as soon as we finally arrive and she goes back to her normal schedule.
On another note, as soon as we arrive and I unpack the camera, I will be posting photos and videos of life in Puerto Vallarta. So 'My Little Puerto Vallarta' will get a little more interesting.

An update on the babie(s)
I must apologize for not updating until now. As you may know, i found out in the beginning of July that i was pregnant.
For at least 3 weeks after i found out i was pregnant, I've made a couple different stops at the Emergency Room. The doctors there put me under as a "Threatened Miscarriage" status. During one of my visits a doctor told me that it was probably too early to get a heart-beat on the ultrasound, and that i needed to let nature take its course and i would know if i were to miscarry within a couple days. I was in excruciating pain every other day or so after that visit for a little over a week.
Finally i thought to myself; it might be appendicitis. I decided to go to the ER again. This time, a different doctor, had another ultrasound done and told me he was glad i came in. I was hemorrhaging. What the previous doctor had failed to tell me was that the baby wasn't too early to get a heartbeat from, and he was destined to miscarry. There would have been a heartbeat if the baby were alive at 6.5 weeks. This latest doctor asked me if i had been on any fertility pills. I was in shock and almost laughed at his question. I had been carrying twins. He continued to tell that the baby that was there last week was gone, miscarried; but there was another baby. A baby that was still living and growing in my left fallopian tube, and had caused it to tear. So i had emergency surgery, and at the end of this journey i lost both babies. I wish them both well...
I am truly grateful for such a wonderful husband. He stayed beside me the whole time. With the help of my mom and dad, my DD was well taken care of. This experience has made me feel even more blessed with my life.
