Pregnancy Highlights:
How Far Along: 33 weeks
Size of baby: a little over 17 inches & 4 pounds!
Total Weight Gain/Loss: still at 23 pounds
Maternity Clothes: still a mixture for pants, but 99% maternity tops except CJ's shirts :)
Gender: sweet baby GIRL - Quinn Elizabeth :)
Movement: all the time! Her kicks have become quite painful this past week
Sleep: it was a bit rough the past few nights because of sickness....cold + pregnancy is NOT a good comb
Symptoms: the braxton hicks are occurring more and more...I know it's a sign that I need to slow down, but it's so hard!
What I miss: being able to fit into clothes & being able to accomplish anything quickly
Cravings: milk and LOTS and LOTS of it!!
Best Moment this week: the nursery is painted :)
What I am looking forward to: Kev is coming up soon to help me with random things around the house that CJ and I are running out of time to complete...I'm ready for him to be here! My BFF also has a baby shower Sunday and I'm extra ready to give Sweet Caleb his presents. :)
After an all day birthing class Saturday (FUN FUN!) CJ got the nursery painted. I'm SO excited it's finally done! I have a girl at work painting two canvases for sweet Quinny's walls, pictures printed and in frames that CJ is hanging for me, and shelves ready to be put up! My amazing aunt Camille is working on the bedding and I got all Quinn's clothes (SIX loads...) washed and put away. The nursery will be complete soon and I am sooooo relieved to have it almost complete. It's been a work in progress for quite some time. As soon as everything is complete I'll post a full tour!
Until then a sneak peak of the wall color and Quinny's mobile...
Since I'm home sick today I thought I'd actually take the time to update the blog. I always tell myself to get on here, but I never actually do...maybe that will change once I have sweet baby pictures to share soon. :)
Pregnancy Highlights:
How Far Along: 31-32 weeks
Size of baby: about 16 1/2 inches and 3 1/2 pounds
Total Weight Gain/Loss: 23 pounds
Maternity Clothes: still a mixture for pants, but 99% maternity tops except CJ's shirts :)
Gender: sweet baby GIRL!
Movement: constantly - I can watch her move across my belly!
Sleep: going pretty well minus bathroom breaks
Symptoms: Thankfully, my heartburn has gotten better :) I am having braxton hicks if I try to do just about anything so I've been really having to take it easy. Lower back pain is still around if I sit too long.
What I miss: If you know me at all you know I'm a list maker and really like to get things done off my lists as quickly as possible...that's no longer a possibility and it's driving me crazy!!
Cravings: milk and LOTS of it! Spaghetti, Chickfila, spinach, blackberries. I had a really bad craving for cake this past week. That worked out well since it was my birthday and I had a shower :)
Best Moment this week: Definitely the new carpet in the house AND my baby shower in Benton!!
What I am looking forward to: Camille has all my bedding fabric and is sewing everything up for me soon. I am SO ready to have the nursery done...or just start the nursery. Either would be just fine by me.
I am going to post the details of my shower soon - CJ has to upload all the pics for me. Camille went all out and it could not have gone any better! Everyone I wanted there came (minus my BFF who happens to be really pregnant as well!) and gave Quinny so many GREAT things! CJ and I are SO thankful for the people that have been gifting us items from day one. I don't know what we would do without all of you!
And now for a sweet pic of CJ (on the right) as a kid...poor Quinny has no hope. She WILL have the longest legs ever!

Symptoms: heartburn at all times and from everything, cramping if I am too active, back pain, and my feet/hands are swelling - my doctor told me "welcome to the 3rd trimester" :)
What I miss: I'm not really able to do much at one time..I get tired REALLY fast and can't be on my feet long without them hurting
Cravings: milk and LOTS of it! Spaghetti, Chickfila, spinach, blackberries...I just love food at this point
Best Moment this week: We got new floors in the living room!!!
What I am looking forward to: I have a baby shower on Sunday in Benton and I'm really excited about seeing everyone!!! We're also getting new carpet for part of the house (including the nursery) and I'll be glad to have that done so we can finish the nursery. Pictures coming soon!
