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!!

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
