Posted in Baby Bump, Maternity Pictures by

How far along: 32 Weeks, size of a Jicama. 52 Days!

Gender/Name: Girl! Confirmed again at our ultrasound this week 😉 Just like the reassurance since we have ALL girly things!

Weight gain: ~20lbs

Maternity clothes: Yes! Funny Story… I went to a HS football game this past weekend with some friends and it was FREEZING out. Well my jacket BARELY fit, I used the buttons and not the zipper, I think the zipper wouldn’t have zipped all the way. I may need to get a maternity jacket!

Sleep: So tired all the time. I feel like im getting enough sleep but still get exhausted from small tasks.

Best moment this week: Our ultrasound! We got to see baby girl and found out my placenta issues are gone! So everything looks great and looks right on track. They measured baby and said she weights 4lbs 3oz – that sounds bigger then I was expecting! They also said my due date is measuring closer to November 21st. She said they won’t oficially change it but she could come between the 19th and the 21st! Let’s just hope she comes before Thanksgiving (which in on the 24th) I don’t wanna miss Turkey dinner 😉

Miss anything: Not being exhausted all the time!

Movement: Lots of movement! She is head down, but they said she could move again before due date.

Cravings: Ice Cream! I am having some as I’m typing this 😉

Queasy or sick: Feeling good! Just tired all the time.

Current Mood: Happy!

Belly Button in or out: In, kinda flat!

Looking forward to:  We have a fun and busy weekend ahead so I am looking forward to spending time with Mitch (this is like the first weekend he has off in months). We have our friends wedding on Friday night, which will be so much fun! And then heading to my favorite place, Fort Collins, on Satuday night!

I shared a few Maternity Pics on social media. Here are a few more! We went up to Daniels Park and had my best friend, Katie, take a few pics of us! I didn’t want to spend the money since I know once baby girl is here I will only be hanging pictures of her!

Week 31!!

Posted in Baby Bump, Baby Shower by

img_5289-2

How far along: 31 Weeks, size of a Coconut. 59 Days left, that sounds insane.

Gender/Name: Girl! I think we have decided on a name, at least 95% sure. We still aren’t going to monogram anything or even share the name until we meet the sweet baby girl.

Weight gain: ~20lbs

Maternity clothes: Yes! Once sweater season starts, which is hopefully soon. It will be easier to wear a tshirt and a cozy cardigan.

Sleep: I’ve been SO tired the last 2 weeks. I don’t seem to get enough sleep and when Im out and about I get really out of it.

Best moment this week: My shower!! It was absolutely perfect. So many family and friends showered me and baby girl with so much love and wonderful gifts. We are so blessed to have so many great people in our lives. The shower turned out exactly how I invisioned, perfect afternoon tea party with all my favorite people. Thank you to everyone who came, spoiled us and helped so much to make this day so special. See pictures below!

Miss anything: sleeping through the night! I know those days are long gone 😉

Movement: Lots of movement. It is definitely a different type of “kick” now. She is moving around not just kicking, so I will feel a her arm or legs moving. It’s a crazy feeling.

Cravings: Salad!! Which is a first, normally I want bread or sweets!

Queasy or sick: Feeling good! Just tired all the time.

Current Mood: Happy!

Belly Button in or out: In! But going flat in certain positions when I’m laying down.

Looking forward to:  Baby Girl’s arrival!! That’s an obvious one. We have a doctors appointment and ultra sound next week which I am really looking forward to seeing baby girl again! Also, I’ve had some Low Lying Placenta issues, nothing of concern, but I am anxious to see if it has moved or what is going on in there.

Here are some pictures from the shower:

How far along: 30 Weeks, size of a Zucchini. 10 weeks left! 75% Complete!

Gender/Name: Girl!

Weight gain: ~18lbs

Maternity clothes: Yes! Not much else is fitting anymore with the big belly!

Sleep: On & Off, I truly believe this “pregnancy insomnia” is getting me ready for late night feedings. It doesn’t even bother me much anymore being up at 3am.

Best moment this week: Spending time with family! My mom finally felt baby girl kick and she was so excited, that was a fun moment. Also, we are 95% done with the Nursery! We got her rocker this weekend and now it feels almost complete. We still have a few things to hang, and bedding to get. But it is basically done!!!

Miss anything: Sushi! & being able to randomly have a glass of wine or beer.

Movement: Kicking like crazy! I noticed she kicks a lot while in the car! Hopefully she likes car rides!

Cravings: Italian Food! We went to the italian festival this weekend and it was delish food to satisfy my craving!

Queasy or sick: Feeling great! Having hip and back pain more and more. Also, LOTS of heartburn.

Current Mood: Happy!

Belly Button in or out: In still!

Looking forward to:  BABY SHOWER! I know I say that every week, but it’s finally the week of! Next post will have pictures from the shower, so stay tuned 😉

Baby Girl is a Broncos Fan already! Here is the bump rocking Broncos!! And couldn’t resist posting the gorgeous sunset/view from my parents house.

How far along: 29 Weeks, Size of a Butternut Squash

Gender/Name: Girl!

Weight gain: ~18lbs

Maternity clothes: Yes, I am ready for fall weather so I can wear leggings & sweaters!

Sleep: On & Off, it has been pretty off this week. I wake up and I am WIDE awake at 3am and don’t fall asleep again till 5am.

Best moment this week: We had a crazy, busy week! We had some things go on with our dog so that was stressful and we are trying to get things done around the house, we ordered our rocker for baby girls nursery, & finished projects in our guest room (I am for sure in Nesting Mode) so it has been a busy week. I also tripped down the stairs in our garage and twisted my ankle…I am fine but it was painful and scary. I am luckily all better now, just a little bruise. So to say the least it’s been a crazy week. Looking forward to next week for of my Baby Shower & my best friend coming into town for a LONG weekend!

Miss anything: Sushi!! This will be the first stop on the way home from the hospital.

Movement: Kicking like crazy! She loves to kick at 3am, which I don’t mind cause I enjoy her kicks. I woke up with a sore spot on my belly and google says its where she has been kicking a lot.

Cravings: Anything Sweet!

Queasy or sick: Feeling great!

Current Mood: Happy!

Belly Button in or out: In still!

Looking forward to:  Baby Shower & organizing all her stuff. I have already started organzing her closet and it is so fun to see all her cute little clothes and blankets. I can’t wait to play dress up with her. Also, finishing her nursery. We are almost done! Just need a few more details and the rocker that we ordered this week. I will post pics here once it is all finished!
