31 Weeks down! 9 to go!

I have been horrible at keeping this up to date! But while I have time I would like to post some memories of this pregnancy!

Things I love:

1. Feeling the baby move around, hiccups and him rubbing his foot on hard surfaces it by far the coolest.

2. Being able to see my tummy bounce when he moves.

3.Seeing how in tune he and puggles are with each other, they will for sure be BFFs!

4. Watching Dave's face every time he gets kicked, its like it shocks him every time.

5. buying everything for his nursery and putting it all together.


Things I don't love as much:

1. Having to pee 1000 times a day

2. Not being able to take anything except Tylenol for my hip, and back pain.

3. Not getting any sleep, I'm a belly sleeper and well I can really do that right now.

This pregnancy, though I stress myself out at times, has been very easy and I am soo thankful for that. I was only sick for about 2 weeks total in the beginning. I have only gained 9 lbs total and have not been able to see anything except my tummy growing. My legs and butt have actually shrunk in size! :) I have been measuring 2 weeks bigger than I should but baby measures right on track in the 60th percentile. Which the Dr says is really good! I have been relatively healthy, we did find that my thyroid wasn't working and my Iron is low but I have been given medications for both and am doing great! I have only gotten sick once all winter and have only had to suffer a few migraines but other than that I have never felt so good!

The Nursery is almost completed, just need little accessories like a swing, bouncer and some other little needs and we will be set for his arrival. My mom and best friend are throwing me a shower next week that I am excited for! Here are a few pictures of everything in the last 10 weeks.


Puggles is so funny, she always has to have her head, paw or body on my belly, but what amazes me is that the baby will start to kick as soon as she does this. makes me wonder if he knows she is there?




Every ultrasound I have had my lil man likes to hide his face but loves to show is "man parts" I am dying for a 3D pic of his face but he refuses. This is from my 28 week ultrasound once again he wont show his face but will show the world his little wiener! If you cant tell what this picture is that's his butt facing up with the arrow pointing to his lil wiener and scrotum (already posting embarassing pics of him haha)!




This cute lil outfit was given to us by our good Friend Cody Nelson, I bought the shoes to match but cant wait to put him in his first Oregon Duck outfit.

The Nursery:






My parents gave us the rocking chair and crib bedding for Christmas, which I LOVE! I bought the crib and dresser, I was so proud of putting up the crib all by myself, no male assistance at all! Then Dave put the dresser up for me while I was out of town and my cute mom put up all the decals, made the valence for the window and made some cute baskets for diapers and such! It really feels like a baby room now! I cant wait until he is here to complete it all! :)



After making my invitations for my bridal shower, wedding and thank you cards, I have found a love for making invitations, SO I couldn't pass up the chance to make my baby shower invites! I absolutely love how they turned out! and cant wait for the many birthday invites I will be able to do in the future!


The time is coming so fast and I get more and more excited every day! We had some Maternity pictures taken about 2 weeks ago that I will post once I get them! :)
