The theme of this week: HEAT! I feel like an alien creature with a body temperature beyond the scale of human acceptance. I knew being pregnant in the summer was notoriously tough, but I didn’t realize how much it would make me feel like a displaced penguin. I yearn for the arctic. I also walk…Continue Reading “Baby Bump | 30 Weeks”
Baby, baby, baby… That’s all that fills my mind these days it seems. I feel caught up in a whirlwind of “OMG PLEASE GET HERE NOW!” vs “AHHHH!!! NOT YET! I’M NOT READY AT ALL!!!” I am glad that even though late term discomforts still annoy me, I still have a smidge of nesting hormones…Continue Reading “Baby Bump | 29 Weeks”
I’m returning to you from a baby-shower weekend to remember! It really was incredible, the whole thing from Friday until Sunday night. There are still lingering excitements, too because I have piles of bags in the baby room to go through presents from my sweet friends to admire all over again. Friday I rushed to…Continue Reading “Baby Bump | 28 Weeks”
The baby room is painted!!! I am so excited about this! The grandmas’ collaboration last Thursday finally brought to reality all my visions of pretty grey walls and empty floors. I debated the exact shade of grey for so long and spent money I shouldn’t have on samples to find just what I was looking…Continue Reading “Baby Bump | 27 Weeks”
I started this post before we painted to discuss all my color options. The time for consideration was swiftly approaching and I had to decide before I could hash it out here on my blog. So now I will just share a quick history of the decision making and some photos of the empty, painted…Continue Reading “Paint Colors for the Baby Room”
Wasn’t I JUST writing about 25 weeks?! Time is speeding along! Ahhhhh! It will be here before I know it, I’m sure. It’s so crazy! I’m both freaked out and at the same time, of course, I’m super excited. Here are some exciting events on the horizon: My mom and Steven’s mom will be helping…Continue Reading “Baby Bump | 26 Weeks”
Nearing the 3rd trimester now! I imagine myself starting to develop what I have always expected would be my “third trimester” feelings. Things like nesting, of course, and imagining holding my baby in my arms even more. I had a dream about him the other night and that hasn’t made it any easier to wait….Continue Reading “Baby Bump | 25 Weeks”
I have been slacking so badly on my updates. As you know I was a week late posting my 23 week update (even though I told my blog to make it look like I posted it on time. I’m clever like that :D). In baby news, I have hit nesting mode in a crazy way. My parents…Continue Reading “Baby Bump | 24 Weeks”
I thought I would let friends and family know where we’re registered for baby things! I feel a little bit like I did when I was preparing to celebrate my 4th birthday party. While writing the invitations to my friends, I innocently wrote “please bring presents” on them. My mom saw (I’m pretty sure it was when…Continue Reading “Our Baby Registries”
My update is coming to you late this week because there has been a blanket fort in our living-room. And my tripod was necessary to ensure the fort remained structurally sound. In baby news there really isn’t too much to tell. He’s been kicking so much and I absolutely love it. On babycenter.com I read my 23 week…Continue Reading “Baby Bump | 23 Weeks”
