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!!!

To my boys {almost two months late}

MY BOYS: A whole hand.   I can’t believe it.   The past five years have gone by at lightning speed!   You two silly, crazy, sweet, handsome boys celebrated FIVE like you do all other things- with genuine excitement and happiness in your hearts.   Y’all love life to the fullest and have the best imaginations- I could sit and listen to the two of you “play and talk” to each other ALL the live long day.   Y’all rarely fight, but when you do you make up within like 12 seconds, you boys are so different, but yet so the same.   You’ve both grown up in SO many ways and sometimes I have to blink to remind myself you are still my babies (because you are and always will be) but you both still have remnants of “babyhood” that I sure hope stays around a little longer.   It’s been a complete JOY to be your mama the past five years, as much as I want to keep you this AGE FOREVER, I know it’s not possible and am excited to watch you two grow and blossom in l...

What's in a name?

I tell ya, the name game is HARD. Really hard. I never thought that I'd be 27 years old and pregnant and not know what I wanted to name my child. I *think* we have come up with the one , but I'm not quite ready to put it out for the world to see...you know, don't want to many people rushing to get monogrammed bubbles. Ha! Jokes! Anyways...so I can look back and remember what all we went thru to come up with a name in 20 years I am going to lay it all out there. I'll start with saying I want a family name to be somewhere in my children's names. It doesn't have to be a first name, but some name in the child's name I want to be from a family member/family. We'll start with boys names, because they got taken off the table when we found out it was a GIRL..this will be short. Mikey's middle name is Thomas...his grandfather's name is Thomas. So...we always said Thomas would be in our son's name. I always thought it would be cool to do a Tho...

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 n...
