29 weeks! Happy First Day of Summer!

                          Well hello there baby bump. This week our baby is the size of a butternut squash!
Our baby is about 3 inches away from where it will be at when it is born! Our baby also weighs about 3 pounds and will double, almost triple in weight in the next 11 weeks! Baby will no longer be giving me those soft kicks, it is starting to get all cramped up in there and will now throw me and elbow, or knee depending on which isn't comfortable! :p Our baby's bones are starting to harden, and its lungs are fully developed even though baby has a lot of growing to do still!


                      So here i am at week 29 guys! 11 more weeks to goooooo! This week i have been feeling much better with my hormones than i have.. i seem to think that i have them under control.. at least for now (; I havent't been feeling to uncomfortable with anything just yet, i mean i get the occasional rib pain, and the top of my belly falling asleep, but its tolerable. I seem to be sleeping fine as long as i don't take naps during the day, when i need to sleep early that night. This week i keep on seeing our baby move! I am determined to record it.. so everyone can see how amazing and weird it is! feeling my baby move is one thing, but to actually see it move your belly around is just like the coolest thing everrr! ;D I was telling Christian last night that i wish he could feel how awesome it feels.. even though it looks creepy :PThis week the only thing that i have been wanting is anything sweet.. which i need to lay off the sweets, because of some news that i was given D: something i don't really want to share with the world just yet. I have a doctors appointment on Tuesday next week for my 30 week check up! AHHHH 30 weeks already?!?! i dont know about all of you, but this pregnancy is just flying by! Im nervous to be 30 weeks.. but i will explain more about that in my next week blog, (:

                                          
                               This past Saturday was mine and Christian's two year anniversary! 
We didn't do much, but we were more about spending time together at our new apartment than going out on an expensive fancy date :P. These past two years have been the best. I swear Christian just always knows how to put a smile on my face and make me the happiest person in the world.. even when he makes me mad ;]. I know i have told you this already, but thank you Christian for always being there for me and making me the happiest person on this planet! <3


                           I know i said i would post pictures of our new place on my blog.. but i want to wait until it is all decorated cute.. so you all don;t look at it thinking i am a plain Jane. ;] It has defiantly been a change living with just me and Christian. Its always so quiet.. well at least for now :P. And one thing i miss i having a dog greet you as you walk in the door. I have dogs in all the house that i have lived in so not having a dog here is different.. but i will soon have a baby i get to see everyday :D. i love our little apartment, and knowing that all this space is ours:P


                  Well i leave you with a picture.. because i feel like all the pictures i post of myself on here are never all that cute.. plus i felt like taking a picture :P
 Until next week!

28 weeks! = 7 MONTHS (:

                  Baby this week is the size of a Chinese cabbage, and weighs about 2 and a half pounds! Baby can now open its eyes in there! Blinking away that baby is (;. Baby this week is making mommy uncomfortable, sitting and pinching every nerve in my body, but hey i still love my baby! Baby's heartbeat is still at 140, and is doing great!






                  This is my 28th week! I am now 7 months pregnant, and starting my 3rd trimester! Only 80 more days to go! My last update i had it all confused with how long i had i have 80 days, 12 weeks, so roughly three months left to go! All depends on my baby and when it wants to come out! 
                   This past week has been the start to my uncomfortable-ness of pregnancy. I officially can't sit normal for long periods of time.. i need to lean back while i sit or else the top part of my belly starts to fall asleep, which is a feeling of numbness. So while i am typing this blog i am trying to make it fast so i can lay down and relax this belly of mine :P. My hormones are out of control this past week, and well there is nothing i can really do about them, besides go with the flow. So if i'm having an off day.. well i will apologize now. (: I haven;t been having any cravings this week just anything i can get my chubby little hands on lol. Especially anything sweet! I have been having some what of a sweet tooth! I have been feeling the baby move more and more, those awesome hard kicks right to my bladder are the best ;] I enjoy feeling the baby move and watching my belly move as the baby kicks. Its so crazy.. the past few times Christian has laid on my belly the baby always kicks him. like he's taking up all its space. lol its so cute. This week i also had a doctors appointment which is why i waited so long to update my blog. I had on yesterday. I had to take the gestational diabetes test. The drink that i had to drink was the orange flavor.. now everyone i have heard from says the drinks is nasty that it is so syrupy and sugary, or it made them really sick. Well it was really sugary and syrupy, but it actually didn't bother me. I liked it. It reminded me of drinking a soda, in which i have been craving, but can't drink. So i actually enjoyed it. (: 
                     This past week also was mine and Christian's baby shower! :D It was such a blast to go down to Nevada and see all of our family! When we sent out the invitations we had asked everyone to wear either pink or blue depending on what they thought the baby was going to be..

             These are the shirts that me and christian decided to wear. He is totally sure its a girl, me on the other hand, i decided to wear blue based on my first instinct when i seen our baby in the ultra sound for the first time.. but to be 100 honest.. i have no idea what i think the baby will be :P. We got loads of stuff from all the people who came out to our baby shower! Thank you to everyone who attended! My sister and mom did an awesome job throwing it. I loved all the food and company! We got to spend so much time with both sides of our family. I loved being able to see my nephew and spend time with him. I must say being an aunt is a pretty awesome thing! My nephew is like my mini best friend.. yes he may only be 2 and a half years old.. but he is the best! And so so smart. My sister and Ismael are doing such an awesome job raising him! 

               Well this week has just been full of excitement! And to add in something else exciting! Me and Christian are moving in to our own apartment on Friday! Yes, this Friday! :D Our officially first apartment together! We are so excited! I will post pictures of it on my next blog!


                        This week, well yesterday was my mothers birthday! 

              I know you can see just our eyes of the next picture.. but i wanted to post it like this so..there.
I know she had a good birthday, because i just know these things. (: But Mom your present is going to be so late.. D:. I had some cake yesterday for your birthday also. Thank you Grandma Anderson for having my mother, and thank you mother for having me, because if it wasn't for you i wouldn't be here today and neither would this little baby in my belly!(: i love you even though we get irritated with eachother (:. lol
         Well this is all for this week. Next week is only a few more days away! 
Until next time.






                 

27 weeks!

(Stare at my belly, not my face..;])

So this week baby is the size of a cauliflower! I know I know a cauliflower isn't nearly as long as an English cucumber (last week) but this week it is going from the whole 2 pounds my baby weighs! 

Also baby could be up to 15 inches long! I personally don't think that baby is that long, but who knows :p

Our baby has more taste buds now then it will have when it is born! Baby can "taste" the food i eat based on the amniotic fluid. It changes based on what i eat.. So anything spicy baby can taste and may respond.. and our baby does! [;

This is week 27 the last and final week of six months, and the last and final week of my second trimester! Can you believe it?! I sure and the heck can't! Time is just slipping away. This week is the first time i have woken up with....SWOLLEN FEET! and let me tell you that is not something to look forward to when you are pregnant! I was so exhausted that day, so it was making my feet feel ten times worse! But you know.. when your having a 'bad' day or things just aren't going your way, and you just want to go home and go back to sleep and start the day all over.. well that is how i felt and then...i felt my baby kick and my day instantly got better and it got me through the day! It is amazing what feeling your baby move can do to your mood! And might i add.. my baby is a moving machine! :D 

I can't believe that i am going to be seven months next week! These past sixth months have been the most amazing six month of my life! Yes, i haven't had that long of a life, but so far it is amazing. Carrying a baby.. a human life, is such a blessing and is the most amazing thing that you can experience in a women's life. ( That is my opinion at least) I Love our little baby and in 2 months and 5 days..89 days.. our baby's due date will be  here, and hopefully so will our baby! That's if baby is 'on time' (;

We are flying out tomorrow to good ol' Mesquite, Nevada. Where we will have our baby shower on the 6th and my soon to be sister in law will be graduating on the 7th! I am so excited to see everyone! Especially the most amazing little baby (not a baby anymore, but i still like to think) my nephew Wyett! He is so excited also! I have missed my nephew so much! Yes, mom and Tieara i have missed you too (; I also get to see my dad this week! It will be awesome to spend some time with everyone and go swimming in 120 degree weather. :P

Well i guess i better go start packing.. until next week! (:

             

26 Weeks!

                         Baby this week is the size of an English cucumber. Our baby is still inhaling and exhaling small amounts of amniotic fluid. Baby is also continuing to put on fat! Weighing in at about a pound and a half to two pounds! Baby this week may also start to open its eyes! There is really nothing to look at in there, but that is okay! (:



              I am 26 weeks now.. and it felt like just yesterday i updated my week 25 blog.. so weird :P. This week my cravings have been bean and cheese burritos! with lots and lots of hot sauce :D. This week and last week i have been feeling the baby's hand or foot on the lower part of my belly! I feel like this lump and then i touch it and it kicks me and moves its little hand or foot. It feels so weird, but so awesome! Not a whole lot has been going on with me this week, everything has pretty much been the same as last week. Although this week i have been getting pretty bad migraines. So bad that it has been messing with my vision. But i haven't had one as bad today which is nice, so hopefully they stay away! This week i have also been feeling really moody.. in like every way possible. It will pass like it always does, but it does suck. Dang hormones!  Well i'm having a really hard time writing this blog because my mind is on a thousand things. Next weeks blog will be better i swear! ;] and it will be my last week being six months! :D 
until next timee.. 

25 Weeks!

                 Baby this week is the size of an eggplant! About nine inches and almost a pound and a half!
Our baby this week is also just movin and grovin inside there! It makes me laugh when it kicks me non-stop! I love it. This week our baby's nostrils have opened up in there! They have been closed up
until now, so baby is practicing breathing through it's nose!(: Also our baby is starting to look more "pink" not because baby is getting too hot in there, but because more and more blood vessels are forming! 




                This week is week 25! I only have 14 weeks and 4 days left! I must say when people started finding out that i was pregnant, some said it would feel like forever and some would say it will fly by.. i have decided that it flies right on by! I can't believe that i don't have that much longer left! Some of you are probably thinking..14 weeks and 4 days, 102 days, that's a long time. If only you knew how fast it has gone already 102 days is nothing! (: 
                So on the 16th we had our doctors appointment! Well mid-wife appointment lol. This time it was a whole new mid-wife. Her name is Holly! She is very blunt and says it how it is, which i love. But at the same time it was hard for me to "warm" up to her and i think it is because i was so used to my old mid-wife Megan, but we had asked what happened to her and found out that maybe it is a good thing that we don't have her anymore. Even though she rocked! So my weight gain is perfect they said! i weight 145 now! Which is weird because I'm at the weight that i was when we moved to Oregon, and i feel so much bigger! She gave me the drink i need to drink for my next appointment to check and see if i have gestational diabetes, kind of scared to drink it :P We started getting ready to leave and started walking out and Holly called us back in, we forgot to listen to baby's heartbeat! So we went back in there and she got the little dobbler thingy out, put it on my belly, and for a second there me and Christian had a heart attack! lol we couldn't hear the heartbeat at first, but that because she wasn't on the right spot. We finally found it and i got a sharp kick on my left side and baby's heartbeat was harder to hear. I was laughing and told Holly that the baby had moved and i pointed right where the baby was and there the heartbeat was again stronger than ever! Nut the baby was trying to move away again lol baby doesn't like when that thing is all up in its space :P It was so cute. I love our little baby! 
                This week my cravings have been..buffalo sauce.. :D and shrimp! I also wanted Watermelon and sour cream yesterday... but i didn't even try it. I was to scared too lol. I have been sleeping better, feeling more and more tired at night. Baby is still laying on my nerve, and enjoying it :] Even though it makes me miserable. my feet haven't been swelling, but i have felt a slight swelling in my hands. Also while i was at work my stomach had gotten really hard and a weird pain, not something i couldn't bear of course, but enough to know it was a pain lol. It might have a Braxton-Hick contraction? But who knows. It hasn't happened since. (: Well that is all for this week! 
Until next week..






         

24 Weeks!

                                 

                    Baby this week is the size of an ear of a corn, my baby book says baby is too big to compare to fruits now :p. Baby has gained about four ounces since last week.Also baby's brain is growing quickly now and taste buds are continuing to develop. Baby's lungs are now starting to develop. Our baby's little face is basically fully formed, eyebrows, eyelashes, and everything! :p 






                    First things first, Happy Mother's Day to all of you mothers out there! (:
Today has been on heck of a day! So glad i am home relaxing with my fiancé! So i read today that at 24 weeks my uterus is the size of a soccer ball! Thats huge! well at least to me.. and it is about to get a whole lot bigger! This week i have been feeling pretty darn good! Just super hungry all the time. I can feel the pounds starting to pack on! D: But hey! its all part of pregnancy! I haven't had any cravings, just been eating what i eat. I also read that eating the same thing every day isn't all that healthy for the baby? Apparently you need to have a variety of food you eat. Which for lunch i eat the same thing everyday.. peanut butter sammiches! :D i figure i have a wide variety of food everyday, that eating the same thing for lunch will be okay! I can defiantly feel a difference in my belly this week, i am feeling loads bigger. Sleeping is still a challenge, just been sleeping with my elmo body pillow and two other pillows under me and to the sides of me! That's my comfortable way of sleeping :p. I can feel the baby move more and more. I love feeling my baby move around! It just makes me feel that much better, and gives me a sense of calmness, because i worry sometimes on how the baby is doing so when i feel baby move it is just like a reassurance that everything is going okay(: My regular clothes are starting to get to tight and uncomfortable! Like this for example, this evening i go to button a pair of pants and they wouldn't even button! i was laughing because i know that this is supposed to be happening, so i don't get discouraged about it, but it's not just those pants.. its all my jeans! Looks like i will be wearing my comfy black preggo pants everywhere i go :],
Well  i keep on getting distracted by the tv, the new episode of sister wives is on tonight! :D
So im catching up on the older episodes (: 
Also i have a doctors appointment on Wednesday so my next week blog will give more about how much i have gained and everything else that they do there! So that will be on the next blog! 
Hope everyone is having a great Sunday. and hope everyone is looking forward to Monday just as much as i am..because its my FRIDAY :D


Until next week!

23 weeks = 6 months!

      Baby this week is sixth months growing!;) can you believe it?! Baby can now feel the movement of my body!  Baby's ears have also fully developed! Baby is weighs over a pound now,  and will double the size in just 4 weeks! Baby's skin is all saggy at this stage and still transparent, but then again baby is still growing! 

      Week 23.. six months in.. I can't freaking believe it! ;D only 3 more months to go! Isn't that crazy?! I love waking up on Saturdays knowing im another week further! Its like waking up on christmas morning, you know that feeling when you wake up and your all excited to see what santa has brought you.. yeah I get that feeling every Saturday!  This week so far is going good, im feeling good! Minus I feel more and more hungry!  But it seems like im more hungry at work then I am at home.. hmm maybe I need to pack a bigger lunch;p. Baby once in a while still lays on my nerve, but once I start talking to baby and rubbing my belly the pain goes away. (It must be baby's way of wanting some attention :) ) my cravings this week are still the same it's been.. hotdogs and spaghetti! And the occasional craving for icecream! Sleeping is getting more and more harder but I've figured a way to get comfortable finally so I should be okay for awhile!;) my secret to being comfortable while I sleep.. PILLOWS..LOTS AND LOTS OF PILLOWS ;). i've gotten the occasional lower back pain, nothing out pf control though (: well I don't have much for this week, nothing much has been going on! But I can tell you that I have a doctors appointment on the 16th! So ill have more to write then;) until then folks! (:
