33 weeks....and growing!

This has got to be my worst picture to date, ugh. Pics just ARE NOT flattering these days...I guess it doesn't help when I skipped washing my hair this morning. YUCK. I need a tan. Pronto.

How far along? 33 weeks yesterday


Size of the baby? Baby center: a little over 4 pounds, over 17 inches. What to expect: Could be 20 and almost 5 pounds… So pick somewhere in between those two?

Maternity Clothes? SAME. For example today’s jeans are not maternity, just using the bella band…simply because I wanted to wear jeans today (casual Friday) and my maternity jeans were dirty. I don’t hate the bella band, but it does roll down a lot.


Stretch Marks? SAME. I just ran out of my first bottle of Bio Oil, must get more pronto. I picked up some “tummy butter” by Palmers and although it feels a little greasy I really like it, it feels like it works.

Movement? SAME. Baby girl has definitely started getting the hiccups though…she’s had them several times over the past few days.


Sleep? SAME. Toss and turn ALL night long. Blah….

Food Cravings? SAME.

What I Miss: SAME.

Symptoms: I’m pretty sure I encountered my first “known” Braxton Hicks over the weekend. I was on the phone with a girlfriend (who has a four month old, so she would know!) and all of a sudden got this really tight/cramping sensation in my belly. It didn’t last long, but was definitely noticeable. She said it was BH. I also woke up in the middle of the night Saturday (TWICE) from them. Don’t think I’ve felt any since though. I get a little bit of heartburn every now and then. I also purchased a fake wedding ring the other day, I haven’t started wearing it yet but it won’t be long. There is just no point in risking it…my mom had to have hers cut off so I’m not taking that chance! I’ve never mentioned this….the weekly thing I had didn’t have a place for it, but my belly button is most definitely OUT! It has been for a while…it doesn’t bother me. It goes back, right? It’s funny looking…oh well!

Best Moment of the Week? We’ve started receiving a few gifts in the mail….and I just love it! I am having two baby showers and they are both next weekend…so the gifts are starting to trickle in. We got the two HUMUNGO frames hung this past weekend along with the mirror/frame collage over the dresser. It’s getting so real now!!

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...
