30 Weeks

I'm going to try to be better at "bump"photos for this last trimester. So far so good. I hit a wall right before the last trimester started, first being sick and now getting a little sore and slow moving. Although I can not complain too much I know it can always be worse. 

Throughout this whole pregnancy I haven't had any fun cravings like they say happens! I would love to crave some pickles and ice cream, with ketchup or something else. The only thing I ALWAYS want is chocolate. That's not a whole lot different than when I'm not pregnant, I just have a little more self control. Bread, noodles, cereal and soup got me through the first trimester. Veggies are not my favorite since the beginning. Fruits are my favorite. So far I've gained just over 20 lbs and I forget how much weight that is until I'm doing yoga and realize that is why my arms are getting so stinking tired! I've been working out as much as I can without overdoing it. I found a great workout program I started right when I found out I was pregnant so I just did some light weights and then when I hit the second trimester I started yoga again and cardio. I took a couple weeks off a while ago and realized that I feel so much better when I work out. My stiff back doesn't feel as terrible and I get a little burst of energy. I also have started Zumba once a week. It's fun to get moving and doing something new. I'm horrible but it's something different.

Last Trimester

OK so here's the baby bump...it's been a long time coming. I don't know why it took me so long to post these so I'll do it as a group progression. 




We made it to the infamous last trimester! I am so exited, nervous and trying to prepare for what is going to happen in the next few months. I had felt so amazing since the second trimester. After the ultrasounds I just felt so good, I think knowing that the baby was healthy is all I needed. The last couple weeks have gotten a little rough and I have a feeling that it'll only get a little worse, but I'm just going to be positive, hey it can always be worse. 
The one thing I am looking forward to is the baby shower my amazing sister is throwing for me and I can't want for her, my youngest nephew and my mom to come and visit! Also I can't wait to see my friends and get them together. I feel like I haven't seen many of my friends for a long time. To be honest, I have turned into a hermit and just want to spend most my time with B before little "cookie" comes. Turning into a needy wife. 

OH...we also got this done..



B actually helped me paint this crib. It's a cute Jenny Lind crib we got from a friend of a friend. We  (well) I decided to make this the one thing we do for the "nursery". We painted the wood crib this fun color to brighten up the room and for the baby.
