on the downward slope

Made it to 32 weeks!! oh how the next 8 will be the longest yet fly by I'm sure (at least I hope!) If it weren't for the constant back pain the last couple of weeks I would say pregnancy has been much more enjoyable. But thankfully I have a wonderful husband a long with from my last post the ice pack, heating pad and massager. I feel like I have nothing ready for this little girl. We are moving out of our apartment the end of October and looking for a 2 bedroom so I haven't really done a whole lot to get ready since there is no where to put anything. Bedding & clothes are at my parents, crib is at Ryan's parents waiting to be put together, a few crafts are in the making which I can't wait to see how they turn out! I am so anxious for her to be here and can't wait to meet her, on the other hand I'm not ready! I can't believe I'm actually going to be a Mom.


Pregnancy not so loving..


Where did my ankles go? swollen feet = living in sandals & flip flops which means for a long 8 hour work day

Getting odd looks in restaurants when I wolf down my food as though I haven't eaten for a month

Stretch marks. hate em, love em doesn't matter they are there for life! maybe one day I will come to like them?

Bending over to pick up clothes, put pants on, anything has become a chore

Hello sleepless nights! I thought that didn't start till the baby arrives... nope. It gets old waking up several times due to aches and rushing to the bathroom.



Pregnancy Loves

Feeling her kicks through out the day never get old and always make me laugh, she is getting stronger and I'm loving her little Tae Bo moves

My hair is thick and growing like crazy! yay for pre natals!

Pre natal massages... umm can we say heavenly!

I have finally made it to the 8th month and in the single digits of weeks left to go

Buying clearance clothes for her next summer, can't wait to see her in her cute little swimsuit!

On another note...it's FALL TIME! I love love love the fall season. I'm itching to get my crock pot out and make some delicious soups, with home made bread and and delectable desserts. September is almost over and that means my birthday and Halloween are around the corner and before we know it MJ will make her arrival!!
