SINGLE DIGITS!!!

We have 9 weeks to go!! I can't believe how fast this is going! I'm sure it has something to do with the fact that Josh and I have kept ourselves extremely busy! We've had a tough but wonderful summer so far! The next 9 weeks are just as busy too! Let's see...Well over the weekend we attempted to have a garage sale..That was interesting but not very successful. We did sell some things and it was a lot of fun hanging out with Brittany and Scott and Mandee and Jess and Steve ALL weekend! We had a great time together:)  Thank you guys for coming over and helping out!! LOVE YOU! Jess and I also went wedding dress shopping with Britt on Sunday and that was a lot of fun too. She looked so beautiful in every dress she tried on! I can't wait to see which one she picks!! Hard decision that's for sure!~

The baby has been SO active. My stomach is constantly jumping around and i can feel little limbs everytime. I bet there is a boy in there. Has to be! This one is a hyper one! This week we are going to Kansas to visit Josh's family. The 10 hour car ride should be tons of fun! I was told by our Dr. that we should stop every two hours and have me stretch my legs....Great now our 10 hour trip is going to turn into a 20 hour one!! Traveling is not fun with a two year old either!! I'm hoping everything goes smoothly though. I have an appt. next week so I will have some more fun stuff to update then! Happy 31 weeks to us!!

The countdown begins!!.....

10 weeks to go until we meet our son or daughter! This pregnancy has been one wild ride that's for sure but it has all been worth it and we couldn't be more excited!   I had an OB appointment this morning with Dr. Roberts and it was quick as usual.  First I was weighed...168lbs! That is a 28 pound weight gain so far. (thanks to the ice cream I'm sure!!) The heart rate is 148 beats per minute and I was measured at 29cm. My blood pressure is fabulous and no swelling at all!!  Baby is head down today as well. However he/she won't stay in that position until around 34 weeks I was told.  I passed my glucouse test too!

The baby is VERY active and I'm loving every minute of it!! My stomach is constantly jumping around!! Breathing in the morning is still an issue but it's nothing I can't get through.

We had a wonderful weekend last weekend...We went camping with Mom,Dad,Jess,Steve,Nala and Josh and Bri-butt:) It was a lot of fun relaxing and eating during the day! My favorite part was the snacking I think!! Ha!! Then I went shopping with Amanda to Babies R Us and we got tons of stuff for her new little guy who will be here any day! I bought a pack of white onsies and got Brielle a "BIG SISTER" shirt to wear to the hospital!  It was a really fun weekend! 

Our next appointment is in two weeks and we will be getting our last u/s! It'll be fun to see how much the baby weighs right now and how long he/she is! These next few weeks are going to FLY!!!

Week 29!

Last weeks movements were pretty big compared to the start of this new week. I'm feeling alot of the movement down low again. The baby has been getting the hiccups pretty bad too. He/She has them during the day and night so sleeping isn't much fun anymore since I hardley get any!  I think it's just gods way of getting me prepared for many sleepless nights! It's ok though. It's only temporary! I hope! 

These past few days I have been having some problems finding a shirt that fits! I'm thinking I will need to hit up target or something very soon. I have maybe one or two shirts that fit and two pairs of capris I can wear. Here comes the weight gain! I have my next appointment next week so we'll see what I'm up to in weight! I'm not excited to see that number!!

My appetite has calmed down a little. Only a little:) I've been trying to eat smaller portions and better food. Fruit and veggies are making their way back on my plate:)

Well I can finally say that I am really feeling this little baby move around!! The movements have changed from little pokes to big time jabs and my belly is moving all over the place all of the time!!  I am so relieved!  I can pretty much feel limbs all day long and all night long! I'm wondering if this baby ever sleeps in there!! I'm hoping this isn't preparing for what is to come!! I have a feeling this one isn't going to be as easy as our first was! It's ok though because I'll have tons of help from Daddy!  

We had a great weekend last weekend...Josh,Brielle and I went camping with Amanda,James and Brennan at Camp Holiday! We all had a blast and the kids were absolutley wonderful!  We even tented it! Amanda and I did pretty well considering the big bellies we were sporting around!  We are so excited to go next year too! We decided we'll try and make it a yearly thing!! Should be interesting next year with two extra little babies!!!

Other than the major movement increase there really isn't much that has changed or happened since my last journal entry. I still have an appetite larger than my house.. I haven't went up in my pants size yet..(well since my last size increase) I am in a size 9 now. However...My shirts are shrinking!! Ok I'm getting a bigger belly...I'm guessing another shopping trip is in my near future. I'd really like to hold off though...I wonder if I can make it 12 more weeks with the shirts I have?! I'll have to start shopping on Josh's side of the closet:)

There is one more thing that I need to write down...Last night Auntie Jessi was able to feel the jabs and movement of this little one! Anywhere and everywhere she would put her hand the baby would kick it! So cute! Jess thinks we are having another little girl:)
