Belly Update

Can we say WHOA...I have grown, grown, grown! It's crazy how much bigger I look and feel just from last week! I am just over 32 weeks now and have noticed several things changing...mostly my belly and my appetite. For the past week I have been hungry all the time...snacking like crazy! I am trying to keep it sensible but it's so hard right now. I am craving salty foods so chips have been my best friend. Luckily the baked lays have been hitting the spot but I can myself breaking down for the itmes I am really craving...french fries and kettle cooked chips :) I'm pregnant right, it's ok to have those things...in moderation...that's the key word...ha! Luckily among the salty cravings I have been eating avocados and hummus like crazy and can't seem to get enough of it! Totally good for me though so bring it on.



I went to NC this past weekend for my first baby shower and it was really nice to see everyone. Baby Frederick got a lot of nice items and the nursery is starting to look like there is a baby on the way :) Charlie (Sarah & MB's dad) took lots of pics and I will post some when he emails them to me. We have one camera and it doesn't work very well so a big thanks to Charlie for coming and taking pictures. We've asked for a nice camera for Christmas so hopefully the broken one will last a bit longer. We're still working on the nursey which has been a little stressful for poor Chris. We are in home-rennovation nightmare and not sure why we thought it would be a good idea to get ALL projects done before the baby comes but now we are feeling the stress of only having 8 weeks to get everything complete! First things first, painting the nursery walls then all the little projects to follow. Thank goodness we have the long weekend to get things finished since it seems like our weekends until now have been packed with events, classes and family visiting!



The weekend was relaxing for me and it was nice to spend time with just me and mom. I got my hair done and also took a few pregnancy pictures with my friend Kerri. I am pretty modest when it comes to these things but found a few cute ones that I wanted go do and she's just getting her photography business started so thought it would be a fun thing to do. We've been friends since we were 3-5years old and grew up dancing together so I felt comfortable taking these with her. I will post a few when she sends them to me...don't worry, they are all G rated...ha!



Monday my company surprised me with a baby shower and lunch which was so much fun! They had it catered with Mexican and lots of guacmole! And Chris came too which was a nice surpirse. They got us a basket with lots of books, bibs, toys, clothes, etc and also got our pack-n-play! I can't wait to see what it looks like set up. I can't believe they were able to keep it a secret all this time.



Tuesday was my birthday and Chris cooked dinner for me...and you guessed it, we made gucamole and had a relaxing night at home.

This weekend we plan to finish the nursery...no seriously this time :) I know we have said that for the past few blog updates but really this weekend is it! We have finished most of our little home projects so we're working on nothing but the nursery.

I will post a new belly pic, shower pics and also finished nursery pics this weekend.
