33 Weeks and Moving Right Along....

How Far Along: 33 weeks

Maternity Clothes: Yes. I actually got excited to wear an A-line dress of mine from last summer that actually passed as maternity. Still deciding if that is a good or bad thing.

Stretch Marks: Like a tree falling in a forest...if you can't see them, they don't exist. :)

Sleep: I am trying really hard to not sleep on my back but it's really the only comfortable position right now. I also am peeing 3-4 times a night, but actually had 1 night this week I didn't get up to pee at all. Wondering if there was a full moon?

Best moment of the week: Hubby's office threw him a baby shower. Was really exciting to see how much everyone at his work thinks so highly of him and how generous they were. Gets me very excited for my shower in 2 weeks!

Movement: Kicks, Hiccups and Somersaults. Baby has finally made his presence in my lungs known. Ugg.

Food Cravings: Pepsi. That's a weird one.

Gender: Still thinking penis at this point. :)

What I'm looking forward to this week: Making sure all is good at 33 week Doctor appt, Continuing to get things in the nursery ready, counting down to my baby shower, starting to pack hospital bag

More Nursery Pics!

Nursery Progress....

Here are some pics of the nursery so far. The room has been painted a light brown color to match the bedding, Hubby redid the closet by adding new shelves and put together the crib and dresser. This weekend we are putting up curtains and maybe putting together the final piece of furniture - the changing table! Yea!

As you can see, our little dog Ellie is really excited for the new baby. (sarcasm noted.) But you can see from the pics, who inspired our theme for the nursery!

Bedding - Sumersault "Show Doggies"

Crib - DaVinci Parker 4-in-1 Convertible Crib

Dresser - DaVinci Parker 4-Drawer Dresser

Yes I have been slacking...forgive me.

How Far Along: 31 weeks 5 days

Maternity Clothes: Yes. I'm starting to worry that some of the stuff I bought in the beginning is getting too tight. Ugg.

Stretch Marks: My stomach has gotten so big I can't see most of them which I'm thinking is a good thing?

Sleep: Gave up on trying not to sleep on my back. At this point you do what's comfortable. Getting a lot of Braxton Hicks at night which really sucks!

Best moment of the week: Watching baby move my belly. Getting the nursery painted and starting to put together furniture. :)

Movement: Kicks, Hiccups and Somersaults. :)

Food Cravings: What don't I like to eat at this point.....

Gender: IT'S A BOY!!! And from the looks of the 3-d ultrasound, he's going to be a chubby boy!

What I'm looking forward to this week: Daddy feeling Baby D kick more, seeing my stomach move more, finishing nursery

Baby D In 3D!!!

Always There to Remind Me...

I thought I would add a quick post as I am sitting here prepping for my client meetings for tomorrow. My little man keeps kicking me and I think its the cutest thing in the world. Kind of reminding me that I am never going to have a quiet moment to work again and for some reason it seems okay with me. Saturday is Baby D's 3D ultrasound and I cannot wait to see what this kicker looks like! I promise to post some pics and updates when we get home.

Sunday also means the start of the 3rd trimester! I can't believe my little man is almost here!

1 More Week in 2nd Trimester City!

How Far Along: 26 weeks 2 days

Maternity Clothes: Yes. I actually tried on some of my old jeans this morning and they don't fit over my hips. Very sad. :(

Stretch Marks: Suddenly have appeared on my stomach. Yea. (Note the sarcasm)

Sleep: I am actually getting better about finding comfortable positions to sleep in. I am a stomach and back sleeper which are big no-nos during your pregnancy, so I was forced to start sleeping on my side. Thank god for my Pregnancy Pillow!

Best moment of the week: Definitely Daddy feeling Baby D kick for the 1st time this week. Hubby was lying on my belly and Baby actually kicked him twice in the ear. Saw my stomach move for the 1st time - very cool! I also experienced (as I type this post am feeling them) baby's hiccups for the 1st time this week as well. This is really cute now. Let's see how I feel it 3 weeks.

Movement: Kicks, Hiccups and Somersaults. :)

Food Cravings: Spaghetti, Chipwichs

Gender: IT'S A BOY!!!

What I'm looking forward to this week: Daddy feeling Baby D kick more, seeing my stomach move more, 2 weeks till my 3D Ultrasound!
