27 Weeks!

We are officially heading into the third trimester! Pretty soon little Sweet Pea will be here!!!

Highlights of the week:
  • Baby loves music (especially worship at church or when Daddy plays the piano!) She starts moving non stop and I absolutely love it!
  • I'm feeling great other than being tired and being out of breath while sitting.
  • The cooler weather is making me extremely happy!

Not too much has gone on this week, but I'll take that as a good thing!

Halloween is this week so we decided to carve pumpkins last night!
Happy Halloween! :)

Maternity Photos and One Growing Baby!

October 13th marked week 25 for me and although we didn't get a chance to do a chalkboard picture (I'm totally slacking) we did a maternity photo session with our friend Alyssa Hart @ Photography with A. Hart. She did an amazing job and even though I am not a fan of cameras these days I was very happy with her work! Here are a few of my favorites!
This is an absolute favorite. I can see the love he has for our little one already. He is going to make an amazing papa! <3

I'm about 26 weeks right now and Sweet Pea is moving like CRAZY! Now that she has grown so much I'm seeing her movements more and more from the outside and I can even tell when she is leaning to a certain area. I love seeing her little flutters and feeling when she gets really excited in there! This week she got the ability to see and is the size of a head of lettuce. It amazes me how fast she is growing!

On another note we finally put our registry together! Yay for the little things that make this mama to be so happy! :)

24 Weeks and 1 year anniversary!


October 1st marked one year since our wedding! We headed to Santa Barbara to celebrate with a much needed couple days of rest and no work! The weather was perfect so we walked the beach, went to the zoo, and had dinner on the pier at sunset both nights!! Not to mention the Inn we stayed at was gorgeous!


Today I am exactly 6 months along and I feel absolutely great! There are a few times where I have trouble being comfortable, but I figure I'll just give up on that until our baby girl is here. I had my 24 week Dr. Appointment today. It's always great to hear her little heartbeat going strong and putting this mama at ease! I was told that the baby is measuring perfectly on schedule. This week she is the size of a cantaloupe! Yay! :)


Ofcourse the doctor reminded me that the holidays are coming up and I need to be aware of what I eat so that I don't gain too much weight during the festivities (Boohoohoo), but anything for our little girl. SO far I've gained 19 pounds (holy cow) and I still have until January so I better pace myself. Luckily I like to eat healthy!

What's next? Monday we are getting new carpet in the bedrooms and then it's a total green light on decorating and organizing the nursery! I can't wait! We still need to do our baby registry and have totally been procrastinating on it so in the next week it's going to happen as well as making a baby shower guest list. I'm exhausted thinking about it, but excited for it all! So many great things to come!
