Christmas break has truly been a delightful break from working for both Dan and I.
We have been able to relax and get some things done around the house. We've also been able to spend a lot of time with family. Dan's brother's family just moved closer to us and we've been able to see them and our nephew and niece a lot throughout this holiday season!
Here are a few pictures of what we have been up to-->
1. Dan and I decided to buy each other a Blendtec for Christmas--best gift ever. I have been able to make juice e.v.e.r.y morning! I love it!
2. My break started off with having a horrible cold and having to take that nasty glucose test. I struggled drinking that drink in 3 MINUTES and then keeping it down for an entire hour. I haven't heard from the doctor and it was 2 weeks ago---so I'm assuming I passed?
3. Just a Christmas selfie with Dan!
4. Making Sugar Cookies for Santa with Josh! I actually found an amazing sugar cookie recipe. I will have to put it on my blog one day--the cookies came out perfect. We even made homemade icing. It was quite the work, but look at Josh's smile. Totally worth it.
5. Just a bump picture. This was exactly 28 weeks. Crazy to think that I will have a baby in 12 weeks OR less! Ah!
How far along are you? 28 weeks and 3 days
How are you feeling? I'm feeling pretty good. I've lost a lot of my energy that I had---I guess Welcome to the 3rd Trimester. My hips hurt if I'm up and walking a lot, which should make going back to work for the next two months very interesting...
She also moves all the time. I love being able to feel and even see her move. Its a little odd sometimes watching my stomach move around, but I love to just sit and watch her.
Total Weight Gain? About 7 pounds give or take. They weigh you with all your clothes and shoes on, so I mean does that even count?! haha.
How big is baby? A Tropical Coconut:) 2.25 pounds!
Maternity Clothes? um, I don't even know what I would do without Lululemon Wonder Under Leggings and {this} sweater! I have a hard time getting dressed in the morning, I won't lie. I also would love to find a good pair of jeans, but I have been very unsuccessful.
Stretch Marks? I found one the other day and got real sad. Its small and on my hip. I pretty much used a lot of lotion after that and hope that it is the only one!
Sleep? Sleep is good some days and bad others. I get up a lot to use the restroom, but I am able to fall back asleep quickly after!
Best Moment of the Week?
Ordering her crib! Should be here on Thursday! and I've actually been pretty good when it comes to shopping, but I finally went and bought some clothes. Just little newborn things that she can wear home from the hospital!
Food Cravings? homemade juice and strawberry and banana shakes!
Food Aversions? Hamburgers-gross.
Belly button in or out? In
What I miss? My closet-- 100% cannot wait to wear my normal clothes!
What I'm looking forward to? Getting her crib set up and finishing her room!
