How far along? 32 Weeks Weight Gained: 31 lbs …it’s really hard to type that without commenting in some sort of HOLY way Symptoms: Let’s just go through what I can’t wait to be done with in a couple of months: sneezing and staying dry. having a brain that works efficiently. having some form of energy. not having to dress an egg shaped body every day. overall not feeling huge. not dreading bathing suit season. these sorts of […]
As much as I would love to say HOORAY! IT’S DONE! it’s not. But it’s close so that’s something. I figured I should take pictures now while it’s still newish because have you ever tried to keep a bathroom spotless with a toddler? And before things get all marked up and water-spotted, let’s remember the fresh new feeling that is right now and then plunge into using it how it should be used. Asking guests […]
Guess who’s falling behind again…. I was looking through my pictures and had no idea where to start because I’ve missed so much lately but hey! let’s start here. Weeks and weeks ago Greg took me on a delightful little babymoon! We tried our best to not only talk about Abbie but to focus on this new little one that is COMING IN LIKE TWO MONTHS!!!! How! HOW?? Every day I tell Greg what I think […]
How far along? 28 weeks although midwife now thinks 30… oh this is exciting, isn’t it? Weight Gained: My scale said I weigh 122lbs heheheh I’m the skinniest pregnant woman of all time! And then I went to my prenatal appointment which corrected my broken machine to reflect that no no, you’ve gained 29 pounds. Holy my. Symptoms: Pregnancy symptoms are embarrassing. Movement: This one is the most active little thing – especially in the middle of the […]
This week a kitty decided to start leaving us presents on our doorstep. Three days and three half eaten rodents later, I think we have a pretty solid friendship in the making. This week a red crayon and a yellow crayon appeared in the dryer and as life tends to work itself out, melted on all the new clothes and miraculously and mysteriously didn’t mark any of the “around the house” clothes. It does baffle me how […]
How far along? 24ish weeks – last time I went to my midwife she was convinced we were farther along so 24-26ish weeks ;) This should make for some interesting betting when the time comes… Weight Gained: 21 lbs. boom. Symptoms: I have so much to do but I’ve been using Abbie’s second nap to take my own MUHAHAH and it is so lovely. A couple weeks ago I had the fun sensation of feeling empty yet […]
My baby girl turned 15 months old today! This month is special to me because my sister and I were 15 months apart and even though we didn’t get these two that close, I still think they will have just as special of a relationship. I hope. I hopeIhopeIhope. No pressure ;) And in honor of National Sibling Day, I just wanted to take a moment to say how thankful I am to have a sister that […]
Happy Saint Patrick’s Day! Happy Halfway! Happy all happy things day! I just love today. Isn’t green just the happiest color? Unfortunately I can’t seem to find any of my old green clothes so we had to settle for army green which you know, is a little more communist and a little less HAPPIEST OF HOLIDAYS but you know, we work with what we’ve got. Abbie can make up for it in all her adorable […]
And look at the millions of pictures I have saved on my desktop instead. Like this one. How much better would our Christmas card have been if Greg had let me post the back side?? heheh that little face :):) Gets me every time. Just your friendly reminder that CHRISTMAS IS COMING! and that I’ll be holding a little bundle of baby goodness this year and I freakin can’t wait. Because I’ve also been watching […]
…you go to see one of your favorite bands yet another time and get tired and slightly anxious that it’s standing room only. But hey! We went to a concert for the first time in forever so be proud of us. And here’s your token lame concert picture. And another just because these are actually way better than my flip phone days. Just look at that young, hip crowd, holding that fine gentlemen on that light-up […]
