33 weeks!


I feel like the last few maternity photos of me make me look smaller than I actually I am, so this one will give you a real idea of how big I'm getting :) I can't believe I only have 7 weeks left. I went right at 37 weeks with Phili (induced) but if they would have kept my original due date, I was technically 36 weeks. I hope I don't go that early this time but I can't believe it is getting so close!! By this time last pregnancy I was on full time bed rest so I am very thankful to be feeling good right now. I have cut back on working out as much and am just taking it easy getting the nursery ready. Nesting if you will :)


We got a new car seat tonight for Wesley but somebody thought it was for him......
Aww Phili :) I have been enjoying him so much lately. I don't know if it's his age or the fact that it won't be just the two of us much longer but whatever it is, I am cherishing every moment with him and enjoying him in a way I don't think I ever have. He has such a huge personality and he makes us laugh constantly. He talks to my belly all the time, calling his brother "Wessie". It is so sweet. I can't wait for he two of them to meet :)

Okay I'm back

30 week picture~ Taken by my cousin Rachel (Brisham Photography). We had so much fun taking pictures in the snow at my aunt's house! She amazes me, she took them in like 10 minutes and had so many neat ideas.
So, I am 31 weeks pregnant now. I can't believe it. Now it feels like it's going fast. Found out that Wesley is going to have a BOY cousin to play with!! I am so excited for Mitch & Abby. They will only be about 2 months apart. So fun. I can't wait to see what he looks like because Philly already looks like a mini-Mitch!

He is still measuring a week ahead. My blood pressure is "gorgeous" according to the Dr :) Which is such a relief because by this time last pregnancy, I was already on partial bed rest. I think full bed rest came around 33 weeks? I feel great. I've gained 27 pounds so far. Not that you probably care but I know I'll be curious some day! I'm still working out. I try to about 5 times a week. I feel so much better when I do. Richie bought me an eliptical for Christmas so that has been really nice to have. The first 10 minutes feels like I'm dying but once I get past that, it feels great!

When I start to get antsy about being done being pregnant, I think about how cold it is outside and I am thankful that he'll be warm inside my tummy for another couple months! Besides, if it's up to Richie, this will be our last baby so I am really trying to enjoy being pregnant this time and not worry about weight and tiredness and all that jazz.

Philly had a really fun Christmas. We went to my parent's house a lot in December for different things. The last time we pulled in the driveway, he said, "We're at mommy's house!" I think he's a little confused ;) Here's a cute picture my brother took of all the kids at Christmas in their jammies from Grandma & Grandpa.

I promise to post soon

Richie had the last 2 weeks off so we were very busy soaking up all the daddy time we could :) We had a fun filled December spent my favorite way-with family. I will post more about it later. Right now I am anxiously waiting to find out if I'm going to have another niece or nephew!! Mitch and Abby's big u/s is today and I can hardly wait!!
