Projects

Ok so I wanted to show you what I've done over the break ;)

My mom handled the sewing machine and I did the hand-sewing part ;)

I did 3 baby blankets for Rory,

and 2 for a friend for her shower ;)

I'm only gonna show you baby girls' cuz I want Perla to be surprised!

Mickey!! 

This one was a semi-pain cuz I wanted it to be perfect hahahaha

Buzz and Woody ;)

Her room is gonna be green and blue

and who doesn't like Buzz and Woody!?

Frogs!

My mom and I fell in love with them ;)

 And of course,

my little princess needs a blanket with her namesake ;)

This one was the biggest pain cuz of a bigger/crooked hole to sew up

and the fabric wasn't the easiest to poke through hahahaha

My mom also sewed this for the kitchen window:

Isn't it so pretty?!

I'll take a picture when it's up too

(we had to borrow the power drill to hang up the curtain rods)

She did our bedroom curtains too

out of this fabric:

And here's a sneak peek of what baby girl's curtains

are gonna look like ;)

Basically my mom rocks!!

I can't wait til I get a sewing machine and she can teach me how to be awesome

just like her and make amazing things ;)

We didn't get fabric for the living room

just cuz nothing struck me as 

"I need to be your curtains in the living room!!"

ya know?

Third Trimester

Holy cow guys!!

I'm in my third trimester!! AHHH!

I couldn't be more happy that it's coming so fast!

Or so terrified that it's coming so fast hahahahaha

(but terrified in a good way)

Here's me at 28 weeks (like 2 days shy of the actual week)

Hee hee hee hee there's definitely a baby in there ;)

How far along? 27-28 weeks ish

Total weight gain/loss: I'm not really sure. I think I'm back up to my pre-pregnancy

weight now though. I lost a bunch because of being sick :(

But I'm gaining about 3 pounds every 4 weeks now,

and I'm watching it too cuz I don't wanna gain too much.

Maternity clothes? Um heck yes. Basically that's all I can fit into hahaha

Stretch marks? Oh yeah hahahaha I had those before

baby girl was growin in there, now there's just more of them ;)

Sleep: Eh. I have to go to the bathroom like every hour

starting at 5 every morning.

She's gonna be an early riser apparently.

And she loves to move all night long.

Best moment this week: My mom felt her kick!

And it wasn't like a timid kick, oh no!

It was a KUNG FU warrior kick hahahaha

but it made grandma proud ;)

Movement: Like I said, all the time at night

and whenever I get tired in the afternoon and want a nap

she moves around so much it makes me seasick hahaha

Food cravings: Nothing really other than root beer.

And even that craving has kinda gone away....

Anything making you queasy or sick?

Not as much as there used to be.

Certain smells still make me queasy

 but not so much that I can't function anymore ;)

Have you started to show?

Seriously?!

Um yeah......see picture above hahahaha

Gender?

GIRL!

Belly button in or out?

Mostly in, although it's starting to stretch

Wedding rings on or off?

Off :( Fat fingers :(

Happy or Moody most of the time?

Happy mostly.

I mean there are days but mostly I'm happy

and excited and love bonding with Peanut ;)

Weekly Wisdom:

Bah! Wisdom?! Me?!

I guess to sleep as much as possible,

show your hubs (or partner) how much you love

and appreciate them cuz you are not easy to deal with

sometimes ;)

Also, don't sit on the floor when you know you're gonna need help

getting back up hahahaha

Milestones:

Reaching my third trimester!

Hallelujah!

Also I got my diabetes test results back today

and I'm normal!

Whew!

They aslo did a hemoglobin test and I learned

that i have an iron deficiency.

No big deal y'all I just have to now take an iron supplement

and a pre-natal ;)

Silly Rory is stealing all my iron!

And don't worry soon I'll post pictures of all the projects my mom and I did

over the break!

Let's just say that it included 4 baby blankets and 3 sets of curtains ;)

My mama rocks!!
