Bumpdate: Week 31





How Far along: 31 weeks

Baby's size: length of a pineapple, around 4.5 lbs

Weight loss/gain: Up 12 lbs total, and really hoping to slow that down.  I can't pretend that I'm not responsible, because  I feel like I'm constantly hungry!  It's a vicious cycle!

Sleep: Still getting up at least once a night, every now and then it is twice.  I sleep awesomely until about 2 am, then toss and turn after going to the bathroom. I have done a little better about getting back to sleep until about 5:50 when Zach's first alarm goes off.

Gender: B-O-Y

Movement: We can see him moving my belly all around when we lay down at night and it is so fun to watch!

Best Moment of this week: Birthing class and seeing Zach wear the empathy belly! (Sorry to report I won't be posting pics.  They are adorable, though! He asked that I don't and for once I'm listening to him! Haha!)

Looking Forward: Spring break starts at 3:00 tomorrow!!! Woo hoo!  Also looking forward to an empty weekend where we can relax!  Annnnnd for those who are counting, it's just a little over a week from our first baby shower!  So exciting!

Food cravings: Nothing in particular, I am just so hungry.

Weirdest Food I ate last week: Nothing

Anything making you feel sick or queasy: Nope!

Symptoms: Legs and back hurting after a long day at work.

Dr. Appt: 4 days until the next appt.  I can't wait to hear my sweet baby boy's heartbeat!

Workouts: Nellie and I went on a walk!  Woo hoo! We are doing better!

What I miss: Not much!

Things that stink:Not a lot!

Things that don't stink: I repeat, Spring Break starts tomorrow!  I can relax for 9 days and then enjoy my first baby shower!

Mama's Thoughts: I find myself wondering what position baby is in and am really wanting to know.  I am going to ask if the Dr. can tell Monday by feeling, but doubt they will be able to tell until/ if they do another U/S.  They said they usually only do another one if they need to check size/ weight of baby.

Daddy's Thoughts: At birthing class, we did an ice breaker where we signed a space on other people's paper that matched our feelings.  Zach signed his under "I'm just so excited to be having a boy!" So cute!

Baby: He moves around so much even during the day.  I think he is already pretty strong.

Valentine's Day and the Quickest Weekend Ever

Valentine's morning I treated myself to a heart-shaped chicken biscuit from Chick-fil-a.  They were BOGO free AND I got a survey for a free chicken sandwich.  That in and of itself made my day! : )                                                       Friday evening Zach and I tried to go out for Valentine's Day.  We thought we were early enough to beat the rush, but it turned out we weren't.   We ended up going back home with a quick stop through Donut Bank to get dessert and then we had a DiGiorno pizza and watched the Olympics.  Can you feel the romance? Haha.                                                                                                     Yummy Whoopie Pie!                                                                                          My Valentine! Saturday morning began gloriously at 9:20 a.m. It seems like it's been forever since I slept that late, but it was wonderful!  I met my friend, Jennifer, and he

Christmas Eve

Our Christmas festivities started with Zach's family on Christmas Eve!  We opened presents and ate!  I'll let the pictures do most of the talking!  As you can see, Christmas is so more magical when there are little ones to spoil! : ) Mrs. Claus house shoes from Nana and Poppy!  Mmmmm, paper!  We got Zach's dad a long magnet on wheels.  We hope he liked it!! Haha, it was one of those gifts that was more of a necessity I think!  She was excited!  We are glad she liked it!  We got Zach's mom a record player that is a 5-in-1 system!  Isaiah's sweater we got him!  Its pockets are in the shape of monkey hands too, so I couldn't resist how cute it was!  He is a cute little monkey too!  Book set from us!  Love If You Give A Mouse.... series!  He is saying. "Ohhh, paper!  I love that!"  Make-up set from us!  He looooved the paper!  Isaiah opening his Leap Frog laptop from us!  He lik

Turns out...

Third grade is not bad at all! The kids are still pretty sweet and are so excited for me to be there and I am excited too! I think it will be fun to see all that they can do and have fun with them. Yesterday I received 5 notes on my desk about how excited that I was there and about how much fun we were going to have. I think they are right! Hopefully I get the hang of them quickly, because I start teaching Science (Mon and Wed), Social Studies(Tues and Thur), and PE (Fri) next week!
