And their Sexes are??????

  • Nov. 25 (ending of Week 17): We decided to change the diet and add more proteins to it and meal times. Mommy needs to gain more weight and she is not. Today she is 63 kgs but we are still behind from what she is supposed to gain.

  • Nov. 19 (Week 16): Today was the sonogram #6 and one of the happiest days of our lives. We found out the sexes of our THREE little ones. Daddy was very nervous hoping that at least one was a boy. Here are the results we received.

The girl's name Veronica \v(e)-roni-ca, ver(o)-nica\ is pronounced ver-RON-ni-kah. It is of Latin origin, and its meaning is "true image". Saint Veronica (17th century) was an Italian mystic and saint. She was said to have offered Jesus a cloth to wipe his face as he faltered on his way to crucifixion. She obtained a miraculous "true image" (in Latin "a vera icon") of Jesus' face on the cloth. Also variant of Bernice (Greek) "bringer of victory". The name first appeared in Britain in the 17th century, and spread beyond Catholic families in the 19th century.

The girl's name Viviana \v(i)-via-na\ is a variant of Vivian. It is of Latin origin, and its meaning is "lively". An ancient personal name; a saint's name. The name has been common only since the 19th century. In Malory's "Morte d'Arthur", Vivien was the Lady of the Lake and also the enchantress of Merlin.


The boy's name Leonardo \le(o)-nar-do, leon(a)-rdo\ is a variant of Leonard. It is of Old German origin, and its meaning is "lion strength". Name of a saint from the Middle Age who was patron of prisoners. Leonardo is Italian, Spanish, borne by artist Leonardo da Vinci, who is considered to be one of the most brilliant and creative men who ever lived.

  • Nov. 17 (Week 16): Mommy's iron was again low and she had to start a 30 pill dosis. Today we went to visit the amazing


  • Nov. 7 (Week 15): Mommy's appointment with Dr. Morales. She gained 1.5 kgs (3 lbs). She is now 61.45 kgs with a 35" belly.
