Cravings and Nesting during my pregnancy

Yesterday I was craving my grandma's Milk Rice. So I decided to make it! And while I was making it, I ran out of milk haha! No worries, I stopped the process, and ran out to get more!.  It tasted exactly them same!

During my whole pregnancy I craved a lot of my childhood foods... Nutella, Milano cookies, My grandmothers cooking... and much more. Mmmmm I'm now hungry hahaha! Did you have cravings like these, from your childhood?

Like I mentioned before, my nesting stage has completely taken over... I get overwhelming joy at looking at organized closets, I open them a couple times a day just to look.. haha crazy person
Am I the only one that paces the house looking in drawers and closets to organize?

52 more days ....

Weekend of great weather and family

 The weekend was beautiful. The weather was perfect. Yesterday we went for a walk by the lake.  It was soo nice. I know the grass is always greener on the other side, but I really wish we lived there in front of the lake. It's such a great vibe down there.  I just love the energy nature gives us. I felt so good after our walk. I even got a little sun burn on my nose.

Saturday we went to visit my grandparents.  They were making tomato sauce, it's the season. They are soo cute. I took a couple jars for myself ahahh. mm mmm.

Sis and I

My SIL's dad is sick in the hospital. We really hope he get's better soon :( The hospital he's at is not too far from my house so afterwards on Saturday night, my brother stopped over our place.

My niece is just too adorable! She can take 3 steps alone but then sits to crawl, cause she is super quick at crawling ahhah.  She loves Zoe too. She calls her doggie, hahha. Zoe is pretty good with her, so I think Zoe will have no problem adapting to baby K!

She is soo active crawling and touching everything! My brother was taking things away from our living room and putting them up on a higher counter haha. She was finding things on our floor like pens and playing with it. She was even trying to open the cupboards too. Watching a toddler is exhausting, and you can't have your eyes off them!  :)

Baby B and Zoe

We also went to visit husbands family for lunch yesterday. His dad got them all a shirt for his painting company. Look how cute they all are. We need one for Baby K too. 

32 weeks pregnant update and presents!

This week!
How Far Along: 32 Weeks!  (8 weeks to go!)
Size of baby: Almost 4 lbs!
Movement: Love feel him kicking around
Craving: I'm getting weird cravings.. yesterday I wanted Pizza and ice cream and french fries! And also wanted to buy pumpkins (which are not for sale yet, well early this week they weren't, I'll check this week haha)
Symptoms: Swelling and my joints are sore.
Best Moment so far: seeing him and hearing is heartbeat this week :)

I'm also in the crazy crazy part of nesting. I've cleaned all my closets and made soo much space around the house ahaha. I feel much better now, knowing where all the baby things will be around the house and in the closets neat and tidy... for now ahahh. 

Yesterday a friend and I (Stef over at http://www.believinginserendipity.com/ )
went out for lunch :) Just the 2 preggos haha!


She's due in 18 days! Soo exciting!!!!!!!

Look at this super cute charm she got me for my birthday. I love it! It's a pacifier!


She was also able to get me a discount on a Kitchen Aid Mixer! I was soo excited when she told me. Makes me want to bake up a storm really really soon ahahh!

Tomorrow i'll be visiting my grandparents, haven't seen them in a while! My grandma had shingles and her doc told me to stay away for 3 weeks. So I'm happy to go see them tomorrow. And happy to eat her delicious food haha!

Hope you all have a great weekend!!

31 week ultrasound

 Yesterday we went for my 31 week ultrasound! Baby looks all cozy in this belly. We saw and heard his heartbeat, saw his weewee haha and saw him kicking around in there.  We didn't get any pics tho.  Lady said she couldn't get a clear shot for a picture (whatever, the ultrasound place is super annoying) I was just happy to hear and see him, so I didn't yell haha.  She said his head is down and he was curled up so his feet are facing my right side.

Last night I couldn't sleep at all. I'm most comfortable on my back, but I think the weight is now pressing on my ribs and back muscles and it hurts! Then we had miss kitty meowing like crazy at our bedroom door, I think she heard me tossing and turning and wanted in. Now she's all cozy on the couch sleeping, must be nice to be her huh ahah!

I love summer, but this preggo is happy for the cooler weather.  I was running out of summer wear that fits! For fall I have all my sweaters that will fit fine so it will be much easier to dress this growing belly for fall. And FALL is my favorite season anyway so I'm looking forward to it! :)

Tomorrow I'll be 32 weeks! That means 8 weeks to go! 57 more days!

Wordless Wednesday

Third Trimester brings on more change

Third Trimester changes are creeping up. I feel my joints getting looser, my foot size increasing, my mood swings getting crazier, and my nesting stage completely taking over. And the dreams, ha! they are getting crazier! I keep dreaming of the hospital losing or switching my baby, boo! However, in my dreams my delivery is quick and painless haha, that part of the dream is good.

On the weekend I went to buy a couple pairs of comfy shoes... My regular size was 7 1/2 I'm now in a 9! I've seen cute shoes online that I wanted to get, but I really need to try things on with my new size and all. But many of the store I went to don't have what I want!

So for now I bought these 

 And these, which I used as slippers yesterday haha!

I have 3 events this month, and with belly growing like crazy every week, I need to see what outfit will work pretty much a couple days before each event. This will be fun. Hoping some cute dresses I have still fit. 

I'm getting really excited and I can't wait to put the baby stuff together, just need to make sure I keep this little one from claiming things as her own haha! I need to make sure my furbaby gets a lot of love too even when baby comes. Maybe we will get her one of those big ceiling to floor scratch posts for the basement as a gift.

Love Zoe!

Today is back to school for all the kids! My SIL sent pics of my niece heading off to GR 5!
Look how cute she is in her uniform! Adorable!

Saturday shopping with my sister

 

 Yesterday I spent the whole day shopping with my sister. My husband went camping for the long weekend with his friends. So what better way to spend my weekend... shopping!

We went to the Coach Outlet that's only 25 mins from my house! It's only been open for about a year and I'm soo glad it's much closer than the other one we use to drive an hour and half away to. I foresee many trips to this closer Coach store in my future haha!

I bought a new cross body purse and wallet. :) On Sale and an Extra 30% off too!

Sister bought a cute Coach hat!

We also went bridesmaid dress shopping in the city. We found the perfect dress! Sooo Exciting!

Husband took the SUV camping, and in no way was I complaining about driving his cute bmw around, but with this belly it was tough getting in and out of those bucket seats! It's stick too, and I already need the seat to go up it's furthest for my short legs to reach the clutch, the belly made my seating a bit off. 

Growing up in the city and always street parking, I'm usually a pro and paralleling... yesterday.. not so much haha!

 

We also stopped over at the apple farm for apple pies and apple turnovers. Yum!

I had a piece for breakfast this morning. soooo gooood! :)

 

 I had a 50% coupon at Michaels so we spent a good hour in there yesterday buying cute items haha! Love Michaels!   I bought a scrapbook with lots of stickers! So I'll print all my pregnancy photos and place them in here :) Can't wait to get started!

Hope you all are having a great weekend!!!

31 weeks pregnant photos! And my update.

This week!
How Far Along: 31 Weeks!
Size of baby: Almost 4lbs!
Total Weight Gain/Loss: Yaaa I think I won't share that anymore, I really don't want to bother stepping on that scale haha!

Maternity Clothes: Still fitting this belly and bum into regular and mat clothes.  Can't wait for Fall! I have a long shopping list! As well as shoe shopping. I'm up a whole shoe size!
Movement: Baby moves a lot when I listen to Adele! He has good taste.
Sleep: This week was tough! Spine hurts! I guess belly is pretty heavy, so getting comfy is awkward.
Symptoms: Swelling :( I'm beginning to get the puffy hands and feet. boo!



Wednesday I went to drop off my pre-admission papers at the hospital! EEE! 9 weeks to go! I'm soo excited, a little nervous but wayyy more excited! I feel like time is going to go even faster now and I have soo much to still prepare for our little guy!

 Some new items I picked up this week:
Onesies and I saw this piggy bank at Winners so picked it up instead of ordering online. 



Next week I'm going for an ultrasound to see our little guy. I can't wait! 


Hope you all have a great Long Weekend!

The best part of being pregnant is

EATING!!!!

 The best part of my days are Breakfast, Lunch, dinner and Snacks ahahahh! My food aversions have been off and on throughout my whole pregnancy, but this week I've had nooo problem!

This weeks obsession. Dad's chewy cookies. These are delicious! I love milk, but I can only drink milk combined with a sweet snack. It's been that way for me since I was a kid. Do you do the same thing?

The other night I made sure to fill up on lots of greens too.  I made my favorite dish, Thai Coconut Red Curry Shrimp, I added lots of fresh broccoli and Kale! With a side of rice and Avocado. Yum!

Yesterday I went to visit my friend and her little man. He is growing so fast!!! Soo adorable! We walked over to a nearby Wing place.

 

 We ordered wings and fries! I was in heaven! MMM MMM

I think it will be tough getting back on track after baby is born... it's been nice not counting calories while preggo.

Tomorrow I will blog about my 31 week update!

Happy September!
