The last day of the Second Trimester!!!!
Well this week has been busy, but what else is new???
My birthday, the big 2-9, was on Monday!!! My sweet work friends decorated my room and even had a cake to celebrate at lunch!! YUM!!! That evening Ryan and I went to P.F. Changs for dinner and then Sprinkles Cupcakes for dessert! Just what a big preggo wants :) :) Its weird to think that I am a year away from thirty and that this time next year I will have a 9 month old to celebrate with me!! INSANE!!!
My little work celebration cake!
I am still having a pretty great pregnancy! I still have the back pain, but who doesn't?? The only thing that i have begun noticing is the swelling in my toes and fingers.. but im hoping with the cooler weather heading this way, and by cooler i mean the 80's, that hopefully this will subside a little bit! Also, this week i got a little head cold :( nothing super bad, just a lot of pressure, and blowing your nose is a lot more difficult preggo... which i never considered before! But hopefully this will pass and ill be back to normal soon!
School is going well, although this belly has begun running into things! By things i mean kids, desks, chairs, doors, etc... everything! I keep forgetting its there! I had to lower my chair at work so that i could pull up to my desk without giving poor Ethan a concussion! haha! I cant believe that I only have 12 weeks left at school before he comes ( if i work up until the day he comes)!!! It blows my mind!!! I still have SO MUCH TO DO to get ready to be out for 11 weeks! That is the one thing that sucks about being gone, unlike other jobs, i still have to plan for every day that I am out, in advance, and PRAY that the person doing my sub job understands and does a good job! STRESS!!!!!
It is odd though how different people think i look.... I get comments that range from " wow i cant believe you're so far along and still so small" to "DANG your only 7 months? My daughter was your size when she gave birth!!" SO its kinda hard for me to judge how I "look".... I have worked hard at trying to stay healthy during this whole preggo experience, and sometimes when i step on the scale I'm just in SHOCK! Not obsessed by any means, i know i need to gain weight... but its just weird to see the scale say numbers that I have never seen it say before...... and know that its only gonna go up! haha!
Saturday morning I went to the Framers Market in Alvin with my friends Lauren and Taryn. This place is so great!! I loaded up on fresh fruits and veggies!! I've read that from this point till "the end" I'm gonna really start packing on the pounds..... well at least i can make sure they are healthy food pounds!!! After we left the market we went to Taryns to eat lunch and watch her make her first batch of food for Kamryn!!! I also wanted to watch so I could learn and it was super easy. Her first meal was sweet potatoes and she loved it!! She is a DOLL!!! Also today Ryan went and bought a new TRUCK!! I am so glad that he finally has a new truck that has everything he wants! He was supposed to get a new truck almost 2 years ago, but them my car crapped out, so i cut in line and got a new car instead... opps :) This truck has so much room in the back for the baby and is super safe!
Kamryn - 6 months old already!
Ryan's NEW TRUCK!
Today was also a GREAT day in football world! Both the Cowboys and the Texans won! YAY!!!
This week has really made me reflect on how lucky I am to have the people I have in my life. I feel so blessed to have such a loving and supportive family, in-laws, husband and friends. This kiddo is going to go grow up knowing so much love and support and I am so thankful to have these special people in my life!!
I hope everyone has a GREAT week!
