28 week update!

Long time, no update....oops. No worries, the belly has been doing LOTS of growing....


How far along? 28 weeks. Hello, official start to the THIRD trimester. WoohooJ


Size of the baby? A little over two pounds and 15 or so inches long.

Maternity Clothes? Not much has changed. I can still wear a good mix of non-maternity and maternity. Being clueless about pregnancy, I would have never guessed I could still wear so much non maternity for so long, this makes me very happy. I still wear a lot of work pants with the bella band just because I only have two pairs of maternity work pants and I really don’t feel like buying more. I’m pretty much always wearing my GAP skinnies and GAP boot cut maternity now though, they are just too dang comfortable not too. I’m shocked how many of my long sleeve shirts/sweaters still fit. That’s a good thing though…I HATE spending money on maternity clothes!!


Stretch Marks? None have appeared yet, still using the Palmer’s and Bio Oil a few times a week.

Movement? Same. They are definitely getting harder though.


Sleep? Same.

Food Cravings? Same.

What I Miss: Same.

Symptoms: Same.

*Sorry ,so boring but not much has changed except for the size of the belly.

Best Moment of the Week? My wonderful husband put the crib and dresser together last night, yipppeeee yay!!! This made me VERY excited. The walls are done, my dad came and hung the chandelier last Sunday, we brought the toy chest down that my dad built and now the crib and dresser are in there. We got the rug and frames in from Restoration Hardware baby and they look simply amazing…BUT because that is part of our Christmas from my parents…I don’t get them till Christmas Day. Ha! Not much longer!!!

2019 family Village Creek trip

Our 2019 summer family vacation was everything I could have asked for, and more!  This year, my parents and nephew joined us for the week so we had extra fun!  (and extra chaos of course, too!)  We did ALL the things, but yet also did ALL the relaxing.  We arrived on G and T's actual, bday so we started our trip with a special birthday lunch in downtown Beaufort with just the boys since Collins rode down with my mom.  We also finally experienced the drive in movie that night for Toy Story 4 and it was AWESOME!  We only had one day of cloudy weather so that was awesome!  We ventured to Bohicket Marina, Harbor Town, Harbor Island, Edisto Island, Botany Bay, our favorite sandbar AND downtown Beaufort by boat, we had a ball!   My dad got some AMAZING fireworks and we had a little show for the culdesac, so much fun!!  Mikey and I even got to sneak out one night for a date night, headed to our fav, Sal

My Pinterest inspired master bedroom makeover part one.

The BEFORE pictures. I've been itching to re-do my master bedroom for quite some time now. I am one of those people that likes to re decorate quite often...unfortunately for my bank account. Mikey's mom bought him a full queen sized bedroom suite when he graduated college, which was wonderful. It is very nice furniture and has served us well. But, I am SOOO sick of all the dark matchy-matchy look it brings. I will use this furniture again in a guest bedroom one day...but for now, it's time to retire it from my master. All of my bedding and rug I had previously...I've now had this zebra/brown/green theme for almost 4 years...so over it! Fortunately for us...my brother and SIL got a new bed...so what do we get?? Their old KING size bed!! Woohoo. I do NOT like for people to touch me when I sleep, I need my space...I've been wanting a king for so long. Even though our room isn't the biggest the king is working out okay...we aren't going to be in this h

These are the days.

Goodness gracious, I LOVE summer.  I talk it to death every year, but it is especially important to me during this season of life where the school year brings homework/schedules/strict bed times/extra curricular craziness- I appreciate the LAZY days of summer EVEN MORE. I've tried to be intentional about taking a half day here and there to soak up TIME with my babies.  Because Lord knows, they aren't babies for long.  (Yes, I'm referring to my 7 and 5 year olds as babies- #cantstopwontstop ) When we returned from our anniversary trip, we got back early on a Tuesday and used the rest of the day to spend quality family time together.  We took the kids to a local water park, this was all of our first time visiting- and we had a ball!   That same week, my girl and I dressed up and attended her very first company banquet for dance, too much fun!  Lake days with friends are sooooo good for me- we've so enjoyed many of them this summer
