So I missed week 29, because life is just so busy! I'm actually trying to figure out how I'll have anytime in October to document weeks 31-35 because I can't even believe how much stuff we have going on! But it's good, because it will help time go by! Because by the end of crazy October I'll be 2 weeks away from full term! I'm sure I'll go all the way to 41 weeks, because that's just my luck, but at 37 weeks the baby could come any time. But again, that's just not my luck!
Anyways, I'm on my break at work, because for now this is the only time I can find to do this. So...we got the nursery painted, and the crib set up! We've still got an elliptical smack dab in the middle of the room, and painting stuff all over the place, but the nursery is getting somewhere! I have got some crafts done for Nixon's room and I really just can't wait to start hanging stuff up and be completely set up for him! What will be exciting is when we've got the car seat sitting in the car ready to go for whenever he decides to come :)
So, so I have time to eat my lunch I'm going to cut to the chase and get on with the baby stuff!
*Nixon is the size of a cucumber...I'm assuming they mean length! Probably pretty close to 3 pounds!
*Research shows that during sleep Nixon could possibly be dreaming :) precious!
How far along? 30 weeks! Hey we made another fun milestone ;)
Total weight gain/loss: 18 lbs. So weird.
Sleep: I'm afraid I'll never get a good nights sleep ever again.
Best moment this week? Anytime I feel my sweet boy move!
Miss anything? Being able to eat without wondering if what I'm eating will give me heartburn.
Movement? As we speak.
Food cravings:I love anything breakfast! Especially pancakes!
Have you started to show yet? Yes, I swear I look bigger everyday.
Gender? BOY!!!!!
Labor signs? Nope.
Belly button in or out?Neither. It's not in, but it's not out. It's just there.
Wedding rings on or off? On.
Happy or moody most of the time? More anxious. Which brings up mood swings.
Looking forward to: Our crazy October so time can fly :)

Week 28!!!
3rd trimester baby! I remember starting my 2nd trimester and thinking I'd never get to the 3rd, but here we are :) 12 more weeks til due date! Crazy! Some people have told me it will go fast, and some have said it will go slow....I think I'll listen to the people that say it'll go fast... :) but maybe not too fast, because we still have a bit of work to do to be completely ready for him...but then again, who is ever completely ready for such a big change??? We are so excited though! Now that I've reached the milestone of 3rd trimester my next thing to be excited about is making it into the 30's, which is only 2 weeks away! :) For some reason 30 just seems so much closer than 28!
I am definitely, officially pregnant. What I mean by that is my clothes just don't fit anymore...I've been able to wear a couple of pants still up to this point but they are beginning to hurt my belly. And then there's the issue with the shirts...let's just say that what I wore today needs to wait until post baby, because it just doesn't fit like it used to haha. You can bet I came home and jumped into some sweats! And now I never want to get out of them....I wonder how that would go over at the temple tonight?
We got our first delivery from UPS today, it was the crib bedding set! And the crib should be here next week! So after we get the room painted and stuff in a few weeks we'll be able to set it all up! Wahooooo! :) Oh and I don't remember if I mentioned it last week or not but we bought our first box of diapers. Sams Club was having a good deal on a box of newborns so we made the purchase! :)
*Nixon is the size of an eggplant...though I'm pretty sure that one has already come up, so I looked on another app and it says the size of a small cabbage!
*Nixon is probably 2.5 pounds now.
How far along? 28 weeks!
Total weight gain/loss: 16 pounds.
Sleep: I have the hardest time getting there...
Best moment this week? Definitely hearing his perfect little heartbeat at my appointment yesterday.
Miss anything? Still sleep...I have a feeling it will be sleep for a long time ;)
Movement? Oh yes. Especially when it's time for mommy to go to bed!
Food cravings:I really just want something salty, but I can't.
Have you started to show yet? That I surely have.
Gender? BOY!!!!!
Labor signs? Nope.
Belly button in or out?Neither. It's not in, but it's not out. It's just there/
Wedding rings on or off? On.
Happy or moody most of the time? Happy I think!
Looking forward to:Getting into the 30's!
By the way, my doctors appointment went really good yesterday! And I just mention this because I had a crappy one last time, because my blood pressure has been high and I've just had to be really strict with my diet. I am glad I finally got the glucose test over, because that drink was so nasty! It hurt my throat because it was that sweet. And I will probably never be able to have anything orange flavored again. It will be nice to have the results so that we can get that worry out of the way. Dr. Noorda was really happy with me and says I'm doing great :) I was concerned about getting gestational diabetes so I've been testing my blood sugars whenever I get the chance, and given the last test I did Dr. Noorda doesn't think I have anything to worry about :) He actually told me last time I went in that he wanted me to have minimal weight gain due to my blood pressure, so when I went in yesterday I hadn't gained anything according to his scale in the last month, so he asked if I'd been eating and just joked around with me and it's always nice to be praised by your doctor. Ah presh....and I got a nice little shot in the behind. Definitely wasn't expecting that when I walked in...so for all my friends that are rh negative...when you hit 28 weeks, brace yourself...every rh negative pregnant woman gets one.

Week 27!!!
We are in our last week of the 2nd trimester, and then it's on to the 3rd and final! And now everything really is starting to happen! Just in regards to getting ready for him! I can't even believe we've only got 13 weeks left! Eeeek! It will be the best ever to meet our little man! :)
So. Things are taking place with preparations as I mentioned, but things with the bod too. I lost a lot of sleep the other night because some cute boy decided it was time to be awake and kick mommy all over the belly...and the bladder. Was it worth the loss of sleep though? Oooooh yeah. And that same night/morning I woke up at 4:30 to take a little potty break and I totally couldn't fall back asleep...that was sad because I kid you not, before I got pregnant I NEVER woke up to pee!!! But again....worth it!
So we are in week 27!
*Nixon is the size of rutabaga? Whatever that is...but he's probably weighing in close to 2 pounds.
*His eyelashes are forming!
*I'm sure you've heard the old wives tales about baby having a lot of hair if you get heartburn bad...well if that's true...then he's got my hair!
How far along? 27 weeks!
Total weight gain/loss: 16 pounds
Sleep: You already read my tidbit on this...
Best moment this week?: We were feeling around for him last night and he came right to the surface and we could feel him perfectly!
Miss anything? Sleep.
Movement? The last couple days it's been almost all day :)
Food cravings: Chocolate creamies!
Have you started to show yet? That I surely have.
Gender? BOY!!!!!
Labor signs? Nope.
Belly button in or out? In but it will be out soon enough.
Wedding rings on or off? On.
Happy or moody most of the time? Happy I think!
Looking forward to: Getting that dreaded glucose test done and over next week!
