Officially 9 months yesterday!!! woohoo

Our Sundays are completely lazy these days........and i LOVE it.

This is what Ive been craving, oatmeal chocolate chip cookies...yum!

Raspberry Lemonade...I dont know where this craving came from...but its 100% vit C ..which is what I need right now so thats a plus!

Why didnt I soak in this earlier in my pregnancy? This was just what I needed today, I could have fallen asleep in our jacuzzi tub!

So here we are entering 33 weeks :) Baby L is approximately 20 inches long and 5 lbs. I cant believe she is almost full grown. It certainly doesnt look like my belly is holding such a big baby yet. I can tell my belly is stretching more and more, this weekend my maternity shirts were tight. Ugh. Had a HUGE craving for Olive Garden Friday. Very unusual..in fact since Ive moved to N.C. I havent been into Olive Garden. But, they keep playing this commercial and all the food looks so yummy! Right as I get home from work I inform David of this craving and how i NEED it like RIGHT NOW. So we headed to Wilmington and it was just as fabulous as it looked on tv! :) Saturday we had dinner at my friend Angela's and it was soooo good too. My weekends seem to revolve around food at this point. Cant wait to see the # on the scale tomorrow at the Dr. I am also going to ask him about swelling. I noticed today my ankles and maybe even my legs look a bit swollen. I downed H2O and propped my feet up...we will see if that helps.

Today I printed out our birth plan and started getting things together for my hospital bag...getting very anxious & nervous. Trying to only think "positive thoughts!"

32 Weeks!

ETA: 56 days..........

32 weeks and I am still feeling great! I sooo would love to stay home right now, everyone keeps asking when I am going out-answer: when the she arrives!

This week I had a major craving for sprite & chicken fingers so I made sure to satisfy both :)

David and I sang lullabies to her and held my phone to my belly so she could hear. I think she liked it because she was moving all around. :)

Its pretty cool to feel her turning and moving. My stomach will actually stick out on one side and get rock hard. I cant tell if its her back, bottom, or head Im feeling but whatever it is I just rub and rub until she moves. Sometimes esp at work it is not so comfortable.

Grandma L spoiled her this week with a snuggle bunny bouncer, moby wrap, wipe warmer...and MORE!

30 Weeks & 1 day......

So I was a week ahead of myself last blog.. my phone app keeps telling me Im a week ahead than what the Dr.s are saying...so anyways, I was officially 30 weeks yesterday! Woohoo, only about 10 more to go! This week it really hit me..omg the nursery isnt close to being finished...what should I pack in my hospital bag...we still need so much stuff etc. ha! poor David..he gets the brunt of it all. So immediately Saturday morning we ordered the crib...the crib bedding came in this weekend...& i organized what I do have...SO feeling much better :)

Currently Baby L is 18inches and approximately 3.2 lbs. Her hb was 138 on Wednesday and my belly is measuring 29 cm.
