30 weeks

The baby bump turned 30 weeks on Thanksgiving! 

Which means on Thursday I will be 31 weeks with only 8 weeks to go until baby! 

We are so thankful for this baby growing inside me and for our family all together. 

Being parents & being pregnant is hard, but we are truly blessed by it! 

We cannot believe how quickly time is going and how soon we will be a family of 5! 

Very much excited for it and a bit nervous too because it will be a change. 

It won't always be easy, but it will be good. 

With each of our children, we know they were just meant to be. 

Always meant to be by God and our lives will forever be changed because of them. 

It will be no different with the sweet one growing inside. 

Being thirty weeks pregnant is HARD. 

Not that I've forgotten that pregnancy gets difficult, 

but I think preggo brain made me forget some! ;)

I feel massive and know there's probably lots more growing that will be done. 

Everything feels achy and swollen. 

My back hurts and bending over simply isn't going to happen much longer! 

I'm trying to rest more and think of things I need to do before Sutton comes. 

Also, thinking about her sweet face and wondering what she'll look like. 

I'm sure so much like her brother and sister! 

We cannot wait (well… I'm sure Braden and Maeva can because its going to change their world)!

59 days and counting! 

Dressing the baby bump

I just got admit, getting dress every single day while being a SAHM is tough. 

Throw being pregnant on top of that and its an even bigger struggle. 

I rather just wear my yoga pants with a tank top,

but I'm trying because it makes me feel better.

I came up with this outfit on Halloween and absolutely loved it. 

It involves all of my favorite things - polka dots, a comfy dress, leggings and boots. 

Its the perfect way to show my baby bump and feel put together. 

I have a feeling I may be wearing this outfit a lot as these 12 weeks...

(UM TWELVE WEEKS -- O M G) fly by!

I could even put on a cardi, jacket and scarf to be warmer. 

Because some times the heater in my belly just isn't enough! ;)

I also like that I can wear any dress underneath or maybe even just a top. 

I think I'm going to be doing some experimenting

with my chambray tops and baby bump!

I'm glad that some times dressing the bump is fun and I'm really glad its fall...

because dressing the summer baby bump is pretty darn impossible when its so stinkin' hot! 

P.S. Isn't that tree beautiful? I love looking out into our front yard and seeing it!

31 days {24 week baby bump}

The baby bump turned 24 weeks yesterday. 

Its way past time for a bump update and its still crazy how quickly time is going! 

With every pregnancy it goes faster

and I feel like I'm going to blink and have a baby girl in my arms!

I had my OB appointment today + glucose test. 

We also scheduled my c-section and baby Sutton will be arriving on January 30th! 

That's a little more than 3 months and 104 days from now! 

That feels so soon and we are very excited! 

I am a bit nervous as well. I remember this feeling when I was pregnant with Maeva. 

Could I handle two kids? I could and I have. 

Now, I'm asking can I handle 3? And I know I can and will. 

Definitely not by myself, but with lots of help from my husband and family. 

And lots and lots of Jesus. For sure! 

I'm feeling pretty good. 

I've gained about 7 pounds and that is something I am very happy with! 

That's always a big struggle for me,

but chasing two toddlers and cleaning lots has helped. 

Plus I've been eating better. Most of the time ;) 

I'm tired, but naps and a bit of coffee help with that.

Also, fresh air! Its finally fall here and super chilly today. I'm loving it! 

Last weekend I had some serious issues with my teeth. 

My teeth tend to fall apart when I'm pregnant even though I brush, floss, use mouthwash. 

I have never been in so much pain before... 

even contractions didn't hurt as bad as my tooth! 

Turns out I had some abscess in one full root in one of my teeth. 

It was horrible and I was a big baby, but I am thankful for a husband who took care of me.

I'm also thankful for root canals even though I'm sure that sounds crazy! ;) 

Sutton is kicking lots. 

I feel her so much throughout the day and a ton at night. 

Her kicks are stronger and I just love feeling my baby move. 

I'm trying to soak in all the kicks and feelings of having this little girl in my belly. 

I'm also trying to soak in the time of us being a family of 4 for just a bit longer. 

Our family is great now and I know once Sutton comes it will be even better. 

Love my growing belly and family so much! 

^^^ I desperately need a haircut + color. My bangs are getting out of control!^^^

This is probably my last baby bump update because I'm having sweet Maeva on Monday. ON MONDAY! Oh, my goodness... I can't believe how soon that is! I'm starting to not sleep so well because I can't help but think about it when I lie down. Soon she will be in my arms. Soon I will get to see her sweet little face. Soon I will get to hold her little hands and touch her little toes. Soon our daughter will be in the world. Soon Braden will get to meet his baby sister. Honestly, it seems a bit unreal that this is actually happening soon. I cannot believe we are about to have another child, but I couldn't be more happy about it!
