28 week bumpdate

Thursday, May 1, 2014


How far along: 28 weeks, hello 3rd trimester and double digits!

Size of baby: Eggplant or head of cauliflower. whatevs.

Baby's size and weight: about 15 inches and 2.7 lbs exact as of today.

My total weight gain: 20 lbs, but Doc walked in saying you gained that much?! Well, you can not tell and Brooke for the win! Way to make a prego happy as can be.  

Baby's development: She can now blink with those beautiful eyelashes I know she has like her daddy, she can see light, and developing tons of neurons. Also, you could totally see the chub she is getting in her 3D ultrasound today. 

Stretch marks: None yet! Still living off my cream. 

Wedding Ring: On. 

Belly Button: In, but the bottom part of where my belly button was pierced sticks out. 

Maternity clothes: You bet! Haven;t really invested a whole lot on any though, mainly used. Oh ya know, still squeezing into all my reg. stuff daily. 

Gender: GIRL!!

Movement: ALL THE TIME!

Sleep: Great, except around 2am I'm wide wake until about 4am.  

What I miss: not a thing here lately. 

Food cravings: Cheesy bread from Little Caesars bringing back my college days, but still wanting fruit 24/7 too so it evens out, right?

Symptoms: Allergies have been all out of wack since LBK decided to join San Angelo with it's weather this past week.  

Nursery: DONE! Minus the books that I will place on the shelves after her shower on Sunday. 

Brad is: The sweetest man alive I am sure of it. So proud of Brynn. He has been doing GREAATTT with my emotions and back rubs. 

What I'm looking forward to: her shower Sunday and all the lovely faces coming from out of town I get to see! To just know it is finally my turn for people to shower my little joy. I am beyond blessed to know people love her so very much and haven't even met her yet. She is a blessed girl, as are we.  

Best moments: 3D ultrasound today. I fell in love 100% all over again with her and the way Brad oozes over her. She kept kicking her feet in front of her face and sucking on her hands. Oh and she was already lifting her long little pinky in the air. Princess or what?! 

-Did my glucose testing today and came back all in the clear! Praise Jesus. I was lucky enough to get the orange one and cold so it was actually not too bad. 



-My sweet friend Ashley also surprised me with a little Starbucks gift to treat myself from the glucose testing today. I have amazing friends y'all.

Frisco quick trip

Monday, April 21, 2014

This past weekend I flew up to Frisco for 24 hours for my friend Nattie's Bridal Shower. We were roommates in college at Tech and she was also in my wedding! I had been looking forward to this weekend for quite some time since I have not seen her or our other friends that live in Frisco since a trip Brad & I made there last May.

I got in about 7 am on Saturday and we headed straight to Natties house to get everything together for the Bridal Brunch. Nattie is so crafty and had such cute things set up. 

Some of the tasty goodies for the brunch. 

Mimosa Bar!

These juices were so good. I of course had ZERO champagne.

Miss Jayda & I(We went to Tech together also.)

The bride in white and the bridesmaids.

Bride-to-be!!

Sweet bride posing with my gift I got her. 

After the shower festivities I went with Jayda to Denton to meet up with our other friend from college, Natalie. We headed for a night of Sushi at Mr. chopsticks and Sundaes at The Square. 
The weather was beautiful so we rode with the top down. 

Miss Natalie and I





I had the absolute best 24 hours I had in awhile and was so glad to catch up with these ladies. I am so excited I get to see them in just 2 weeks again for my baby shower!!


Brad, my parents, and I will be traveling back up to Dallas for me to be in her wedding June 26th. We are all going and bringing my packed hospital bags just in case miss thing decides to make an early 36 1/2 week appearance. You never know how my body or her will react with the 4 hour road trip and tons of dancing.
