Our little girl!

It has been a while since I've done an update on the baby. I've been so busy working more hours and by the time I get home I just want to relax, plus not having internet at our apt. doesn't help either.   
So here it is.  On October 25th we had our ultrasound, which I was some what nervous about.  For some reason I went to the appointment with the expectation that the Doctor would be able to tell right away if it is a girl or boy, and I was convinced that it was going to be a boy, plus Danny kept telling me that we most likely will have a girl, because according to him genetically the Bair men produce more girls then boys, so I wanted to prove him wrong.  Anyway, at the ultrasound the Dr. was not that personal, he meant business.  You can tell he was just there to measure the head, make sure the baby's heart, spine were healthy and that she has 10 toes and fingers, and that is exactly what he did.  He had a hard time getting a clear view on if it was a girl or boy.  The baby was shy and had it's legs closed the whole time.  By the end of the appointment he said "I'm 95% sure it's a girl.  Then he gave us the pictures, which to me I couldn't tell her head from her pompis.  Danny was thrilled to has his little girl, don't get me wrong I was too, but I was a little bothered with how they whole appointment went and that we didn't have a good profile picture of the baby.  At work, I told my co-workers of my experience and they told me about getting 3D pictures, I was hesitant at first because it's kinda of freaky looking plus it would cost us money.  I talked to Danny about it and did my research of all the places that do it in our area and I found a place that was inexpensive and gave me the most for our money.  So on November 13 we went and got our 2d, 3d pictures and DVD of the whole ultrasound.  At first Danny didn't like the pictures too much, but I think they grew on him cause he will pull them out to look at her once in awhile, it's cute.  Time really flies by, I can't believe I'm half way already, it sure doesn't feel like it.

Loca, Loca, Loca

Through out the month of September and October Danny and I heard commercials on the Spanish radio station about Shakira coming to Sacramento Arco Arena. We didn't think much of it until on morning Danny asked if I'd really like to go, having been a fan (but not too die hard) of hers from the beginning I told him I wouldn't mind going if the tickets weren't too expensive.  So on October 19th we went to her concert.  We invited another young couple from our branch, but the husband backed out last minute so his wife and another friend from the branch came.  Shakira was amazing, a good entertainer and we all know she sure knows how to dance, it was fun to see in person that her hips really DON'T lie!  The one downer was every time she sang in English, I absolutely couldn't understand her, I like her songs better in Spanish anyway.  Some of our favorites that she performed was She wolf, Tortura, Gypsy, some old school songs, hips don't lie, loca and of course she did her big finale with WAKA, WAKA!  We didn't take too many pictures or video because for her concert cameras were not allowed and us being the honest people we are took our cameras back to the car, although we totally could have sneaked in with them. oh well! It was so much fun, the baby was moving like crazy during the upbeat songs.  It was a fun night full of dancing, loud music and great entertainment.
