Victoria and Elizabeth

Well, Victoria can say her sister's name. It is so cute to hear her say Elizabeth. She will watch a baby being born on TV and then come over to my tummy and say baby. She loves to kiss Elizabeth and she says hi to her all the time. I am so glad that she loves her so much already and she hasn't even met her yet. They will be the best of sisters ever.

Victoria has a Little People Zoo and she is getting pretty good with the animals and finding the letter on the board. She can name 10 animals out of the 27 and she can find about 5 of their letters on the board. I did a video of her naming them and finding some of the letters. She is just talking up a storm. She loves disney princess and of course her new room is disney princess. She wants to wear her princess pajamas every night. She loves to play with her babies, she feeds them, rocks them to sleep in the cradle and she covers them with a blanket. She is such a little girl and I love it. She loves to ride daddy and Hercules like ponies. She can hear a word once and then says it right away. She can recognize the numbers 1-5 and say her numbers 1-10, well sometimes she says one. I say one and she will say two. It is funny. She is just really amazing and we are so very proud of her and how well she is doing.

Ultrasound

Me at 20 weeks 5 days




So, our ultrasound was on Monday, May 5th. It was not as pleasant as it was with Victoria and I felt bad because Louis missed Victoria's. The Tech was all business and not very personable at all. She could not get the DVD machine to work so we did not get a DVD. She took some horrible pictures and it was just not fun. Victoria during the whole thing just kept saying baby, it was really cute. We she measured all the vital parts and the baby looks great and it measuring about 1 week ahead of my due date but it did not get changed. The heart rate was 151 and my tummy measured 25. Which from my understanding is only suppose to be about two weeks plus or minus your week in your pregnancy. 25 was 5 weeks ahead for me. The baby was laying face down and it was hard to gets it's face. We did get a cute picture of Kiwi's foot and great pictures of Kiwi's hands. It was so wonderful to see Kiwi. We could not get a good face picture but she did get the lips and nose side profile. Hope you enjoyed the pictures.

So, we decided to find out the sex of our baby. We went back and forth on the issue and wanted to know. Then we were not sure if we were going to tell anyone or not. We decided to tell you in a fun way. We would appreciate it if you do find out the sex to not tell anyone else. We want everyone to find out themselves. The only ones who will know are the ones that read our blog and can find out the answer. We thought it would be fun to play a little game. So, here it goes.

The baby's name is _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _. The hints are a book in the Bible and a Queen. If you remember the names that we told you we had picked out it will be easy for you or it may be a challenge. If you find out the name you can e-mail or call us with you answer. We hope that you have fun playing our baby game.

Love,
Louis, Kristina, Victoria and baby Kiwi Quintana

Family day at the Zoo






Train ride






















Hanging out eating friut snacks

It was a fun day at the Zoo. We saw just about all the animals. We saw a Tiger and it was playing in a tire that had some treats in it. We went to the Elephant progam and that was fun. I had more fun talking to some teenage girls behind me. I ate some Kettle corn, french fries, chicken and apples. I saw some baby ducklings and feed them some food. At the Penguin encounter about 4 of them were standing at the edge of the rock ready to jump in, when they all looked up at the same time and walked away. It was pretty funny. I liked the Giraffes the best and we spent a lot of time looking at the baby. I got some furry little animals that came in a carrying case so I can take them with me places. It was a nice day to spend with my Mommy and Papa. I hope that you enjoyed the pictures that were taken.

Love, Victoria
