Little MIss 34 Weeks

Things I learned and did this week:

+I am on bed rest still. Which is good because it means I am still pregnant!

+My belly is officially huge; meaning that its big enough to rest on my thighs when sitting down.

+I finally have pregnancy heart burn... and man does it burn.

+I found out that little miss loves to be read to. She twists and turns when you read aloud.

+She doesn't like it when I move, walk, turn, or really any type of movement. I think she's a lazy girl.

+I packed my hospital bag this week. Just incase she makes her grand appearance early, we'll be semi ready.

+We also took a tour of the hospital and Jed and I are both so glad that we only live 5 minutes away!

Little Miss 33 weeks

It's been quite the adventure the past two weeks but I am so glad to say I am still pregnant! During my 32 week doctor visit Jed and I were told that I was in 'preterm' labor. Meaning that little miss was trying to come out! I had to spend a few hours in Labor and Delivery in triage, given a shot, and lots of medication that slowed down my contractions. I was also put on bed rest for the week.

Poor Jed, he looked so scared in the hospital room. We both were in shock and didn't really know how to act or what to say. My pregnancy had been so easy up to this point and neither of us were excepting any major complications. We felt overwhelmed and worried.

I took it easy for the week and when I went to my next appointment we were told that I was still in 'active preterm labor' but my progression had slowed, which was good news. I was put on bed rest indefinitely, it's been a little boring, and I had to quit working which was unplanned. My bosses have been very supportive and Jed and I know it's for the best.

Other than that excitement, Jed and I have been busy finishing up little miss' room. It's almost finished and I am loving how it is coming together. It's crazy to think that she'll be here so soon, we feel completely unprepared without a clue on how to take care of a baby... Which I hear is normal for first time parents!

Little Miss 32 Weeks + a shower

This last weekend my mom and sisters threw me the best baby shower. They really out did themselves on the decorations and the food. So many people came and I just felt so loved the entire day. I'm not a huge lover of parties for myself, but this one was so sweet and I just felt so blessed to have so many friends in my life that are so excited for Jed and I!

We were totally spoiled and I received so many things that I needed and wanted! I was given some of the most adorable outfits and I just know this little girl is going to be well dressed.

Angie also moved out this past weekend... I was so excited to get little miss' room ready, but at the same time didn't want Angie to leave. I miss her a lot and feel a little lonelier each evening. 

My pregnancy is still going well, just getting bigger and bigger by the day. My clients at work especially think I've gotten large

Overall I'm feel good and excited to meet this little girl!

Little Miss 27 Weeks

I am officially in my 27th week and the little one has officially found herself in my ribs. She seems to be the most active late at night and early mornings. She seems to love orange juice and hate tomatoes.. but that might just be me. At my last doctors appointment my doctor 'encouraged' me to be more active, so naturally I walked around the block twice and feel pretty proud of myself.

I hear this third trimester thing can become pretty uncomfortable. I can't really imagine my belly getting bigger, but each day it does, and my love for strechy pants is growing. Jed and I are getting more excited each week to meet this 'little miss' and I am having lots of fun stocking up on cute clothes for her to model when she gets here.

Other things lately:

1. My back window of my car got busted out last week while I was at work. Nothing was stolen, so it might have just been a hate crime. Man I hate when people hate me. 
2. Jed is OBSESSED with Settlers of Catan. I played this game once with my bff Kris and her family over a holiday break in college. Then when Jed and I got married I asked if we could buy it and he made fun of me saying, only weirdo Mormon kids play that game. Well I bought it anyways and now Jed is crazy for it. Seriously he wants to play it all the time. I let my sister take it to her friends house over the weekend and he acted like I sold our dog. heartbroken.
Jed on New Years Eve. We. Are. Party. Animals.
