30 Weeks

How far along: 30 weeks

Total weight gain/loss: up 18 pounds...Found out I was down 3 pounds from our previous appointment. So, in 4 days I lost 3 pounds of fluid. Wish losing weight were this easy in "real life"!

Maternity clothes: Trying to make what I've got last...don't want to spend too much $ on a few weeks worth of stuff

Stretch marks: still icky!

Sleep: I guess I'm being prepared for her arrival...I don't get much sleep anymore! I'm EXHAUSTED!

Best moment this week: Putting away all of the wonderful stuff we got at her shower

Movement: love it! I love when my belly just randomly starts shaking and whoever I'm talking to is like "uh, there's an earthquake in your stomach" lol

Food cravings: I can't get enough to drink....Dr. Pepper, water, Cherry Vanilla Limeade, milk, whatever

Gender: Sophia Faith

Labor signs: nada

Belly button in or out: Jeff thinks I'm crazy, but I feel like it's not very deep anymore....guess we'll see!

What I miss: being independent. Everyone wants to do everything for me (which is super sweet) but I'm way too independent for that

What I am looking forward to: Getting our crib....Wal-Mart lost the one we ordered weeks ago. yes, LOST our crib! We had to re-order it

Weekly wisdom: Let others do things for you if they want....they are doing it out of the goodness of their hearts. Don't let it bother you. Appreciate it

Milestone: We are almost down to single-digit weeks!!!


~ SOME of the stuff from our shower! So much pink! So many great things! We also got a high chair, travel system, and several other odds-n-ends that didn't make it in the picture. (That blue tub is filled w/clothes & such) We are so blessed! **Disclaimer: the cat was not a shower gift! ha! Can you even see her?!**
