Still Pregnant!

Still rockin’ this very large baby bump! This boy is in there for the long haul. My due date is Saturday and I know it will come and go with no little boy to show for it. I'm actually kind of ok with it. Kind of... I'm uncomfortable and all but knowing this is my last pregnancy I feel like I can hold out a little longer. I'm going to miss his kicks.

Other things that have been going on in our life? I'm a straight up addicted to Candy Crush. This F-ing game! Currently stuck on level 33... Days.



A little picutre mash up of latey:

1) Jack's pack n play all set up and ready to go in our room. Just waiting..

2) Layla and I spent time with my favorite (& only) nephew a few Monday's ago. She is so sweet and gentle with him! Even letting him play with her beloved Kia.

3) Layla and I got mani/pedi's! I think I might have got it done a little early since I have 1 toe that is messed up. I really wanted pretty feet for labor. That's really important.

4) Ben and Layla wrestling... I think she's winning.

5) A sweet little Crabby blanket that Ben HAD to get for Jack.

6) I'm not getting a new swing for Jack. Sorry, kid. So I am trying to make Layla's very pink swing manlier for him. I was going to just buy a mobile for it to replace the hanging butterflies but $30+ for something I could make for less then $5. No way! I made this elephant one in about 20 minutes.

7) Before Valentine's day I told Ben, "Let's get Layla a Princess CD!" Omg why did I think this was a good idea?! These songs haunt my dreams.

8) Italian Soda and Sunshine!!!! I forgot how good these things are!!!

Weekend Update

Just a day late, no big deal!

I am flipping exhausted lately! Both Friday and Saturday night I was in bed and passed out by 9pm. Yeah, I'm super cool.

Saturday morning we got up and out of the house early to go pick up our Co Op Veggies. Do you do anything like this? This is only the second time we've done it, the last time was in August and I feel like we got more for our money then. But it is Winter in the Northwest so I can guess that fruits and veggies are hard to come by. Anyways, I found this website Bountiful Baskets through my friend Jen. They do these all over the country so if your looking for something like this, check our the website. A little info about it:

BBFC is a group of people who work together for mutual benefit. This is a grassroots, all volunteer, no contracts, no catch co-operative. Since there are no employees at Bountiful Baskets, we as a group pay rock bottom prices on your food. This also means the co-op would not happen without volunteers. Each week different items will be in the Bountiful Basket! We base the basket contents on what is in season, high quality, good value, and local. 50% Fruit, 50% Vegetables & 100% healthy & delicious!
This is what was in our "basket" this week! I need to figure out something to do with those monster yams.

After picking up our Veggies we were already in town so we went to breakfast and shopping. Perfect Saturday!

Sunday was nice and easy. We set up Jack's Pack n Play, cleaned house and just hung out together. Before the Super Bowl started I went down to my Brother's house for a little bit, but was home in time to watch the half time show. Which I thought Bey rocked!
Random pictures from the rest of our weekend. I'm trying to turn our VERY Pink swing into something Jack won't be embarrassed to swing in. Cause you know newborns care about that kind of thing. Layla growling at me, she was a Dino. Next row, our early morning trip to our Fav Coffee Stand Sunday morning. I had a craving for some of my Great Grandma's biscuits! Oh they were good! And Jack's pack n play!

Now it's another work week, blah. But as of today I only have 17 more work days until my due date! Hell yeah!

Maternity clothes? All the time. I still wear most of my normal shirts with a maternity tank underneath.-Still the same

Stretch marks? I've noticed a few... I'm not too concerned about them like I was with Layla. They fade. -Same

Best moment this week: Hearing his heartbeat at our WEEKLY appt yesterday! Also, getting the last few things we need for him.

Miss Anything? BEER! I'm not a huge beer drinking normally but man it sounds so good!

Movement: Lots, all the time.

Food cravings: Sweets... Candy bars.

Anything making you queasy or sick: Taking my heartburn meds without food. Other then that nothing.

Gender: All boy!

Labor Signs: Zero. I actually got checked for the first time yesterday, I was going to decline but didn't. Nothings going on down there.

Belly Button in or out? Out.

It's crazy to think how close we are to holding him.
