4th of July bump



Monday- 22 week bump...
.I feel like it doubled in just a few days
and only 0.5 lbs more. Maybe it's just the dress, lol.

I had fun on Friday going to the container store
with my mom and putting together
the two leaning bookshelves here in our room.
I love them! It's nice to get things organized.



Mosby and Jaxson just chilling outside
before we were suppose to get a big storm on Sunday night
 and some relief from the hot temps!

Due Date: November 13, 2012

Weight Gain: +3.5 lbs from starting weight. Why does the extra 0.5 lbs feel and look like 10 lbs!?

Symptoms: Felt really good all week. Extra spurts of energy here and there and feeling very bloated.

Cravings: Fruit and chocolate. I ate a piece of red velvet cheesecake this weekend from the cheesecake factory (my favorite dessert) and I think Baby E liked it too......I felt a happy dance in my belly. Haha!

Sleep: Sleeping ok. I'm still having weird dreams. Starting to toss and turn a little. I can't stay comfortable for too long on one side.

I am loving: Bryan wasn't as excited about his anniversary present as much as I was hoping. I got him a faux brown leather bag that could be his "daddy" diaper bag with some Husker baby gear (newborn hat and pacifiers), and a bib that said I love my chiropractor in it. He liked the baby items but not the bag, maybe he'll change his mind once baby comes or I'll just end up using it. :) I loved the gift he got me though.....a tv for our bedroom.

I am spazzing about: Just realizing that baby will be here in about 4 months and that is not far away!

I am looking forward to: My sister being home for a short period of time this weekend and hopefully getting to see Bryan's parents this upcoming week when they drive through MO on a trip.

Movements: Baby kicks pretty regularly throughout the day.

Milestones: Dresser/Changing table has been ordered while the crib is on backorder. Should be able to start doing stuff to the nursery soon.

It's a....: Bryan thinks we are having a girl. I still don't have a feeling if it's boy or girl. It's been really fun to hear what people think we are having and their reasonings behind it.

This heat is ridiculous! 

Happy July 4th/3 yr Anniversary

Bryan and I had a very relaxing and uneventful July 4th. With the extreme heat nothing sounded appealing to get out and do and all the local places we wanted to eat at were closed. Bryan did make a very nice dinner for us! Afterwards, Bryan enjoyed eating his favorite ice cream while I watched some of the fireworks out on our driveway.



This photo reminds me of a Supernova



The inner geek in me got so excited about these moon photos.  I have always wanted to be able to take pictures of the moon. I love that our camera has this capability!!

Due Date: November 13, 2012

Weight Gain: +3 lb from starting weight.

Symptoms: Felt really good all week. Feeling extra spurts of energy here and there.

Cravings: Fruit and chocolate

Aversions: No aversions. I finally have been eating a little bit of red meat.

Sleep: Sleeping fine. We did have to go out and buy a fan that I can use in the bedroom. I get so warm in the middle of the night. I feel a little bad because Bryan says it's really cold.

I am loving: I'm super excited about the gift I got Bryan for our anniversary this week. Part of it may be baby related. :) Hopefully, he will like it as much as I did.

I am spazzing about: I'm starting to get anxious about setting up Baby E's room. I know there is plenty of time ahead we just have a busy summer and I'm not sure how much I will want to do late in the pregnancy. With this extreme heat we are having in MO I've been worrying way too much about the dogs. I worry that they are outside too long or that they got stuck in one of the slats in the fence (happened to Mosby when he was a puppy and I guess it was minorly traumatic for me...I won't forget that!). I worry while we are at work that the air conditioning is going to break since it's working so hard and that they will get too overheated or that I left something on at the house that could cause a fire or accidentally left one of them outside before we left. Yes, I know I'm overly worried and it drives Bryan nuts!

I am looking forward to: July 4th for the day off work and to celebrate our 3 year anniversary.

Movements: I can feel baby move a lot more now and kicks are pretty strong.

Milestones: Can't believe we are over half way there!

It's a....: Bryan and I have been really good and haven't even thought about peeking at the envelope. Bryan thinks we are having a girl and I'm starting to think the same.

Enjoying the Heat
