Ok You Asked For Them

The reason for the delay is because I couldn't find my camera cord for the longest time. But it has been retrieved, my camera is charged and the pictures are loaded on my computer. So here are a few prego pictures that didn't get a chance to make it on my blog earlier.

This is me at 23 weeks. You might have to click on the picture to get a better view. The brown shirt makes it hard to see.

This is me at 26 or 27 weeks. I can't remember exactly.



A closer pic of the belly at 26 or 27 weeks.

And this is me Today at 30 weeks and 2 days!

I'm horrible at updating with this pregnancy stuff. Didn't think I would be, but there you have the pics. I am doing a good job at staying in the recommended weight gain of 25-35 pounds. At my appointment last week I was at the 21 pound mark. I will probably end up gaining another 8-10 pounds the last two months. But it's all for the baby right? Post delivery will be a true test of my metabolism. Let's see how fast I can bounce back from this. I can't wait til she's here! For so many reasons, but also so I don't have a belly anymore. I'm not so great at being pregnant. Sleeping gets harder and harder, but I get blessed with at least one or two great nights of sleep per week, so I guess I should be grateful. Yes, I know it's only going to get worse from here, you don't have to remind me.

We have pretty much all of the baby equipment that we need now other then a couple of things we'll need when she's a little older (sitting up, crawling) so we're very happy about that. I finally started buying some clothes with some Kid Bucks I got from my Sister in law, Emily, for my birthday and from the New Moon Premiere. If you didn't know already, I work at a place called Kid to Kid that has been a great blessing for us during this time in our lives. It's been stressful having James still in school and me not having a full time job to have all the money we need to pay for everything and Kid to Kid has been a way for us to purchase the things that we need at a discounted price. I am very grateful that I was given this job even with the owner aware of my pregnancy. She must've known somehow that we needed it.

I haven't set up the room yet, because we are still hoping to move by the end of the year. Hopefully, we'll get someone to bite on our contract. Otherwise, I don't know what we're going to do, but I suppose it will all work out in the end right? Right!

In other news, I guess I am an official resident of Utah cause I finally got my Utah License. Now we just have to get James on board.

Oh, and I got the spice rack I've been wanting for my birthday and it's been put to good use. Thanks to my hubby! I also got a Moby Wrap from Jared and Lindsey that I'm so excited to use when the baby comes. Oh and I purchased a very cute dark navy with white polka dot dress with the gift card to Destination Maternity that Stacee gave me. I love it, it makes me feel pretty!

And last, but not least... we have narrowed it down to two names. We went from 5 to 2 so be proud of us!

Those names are: Janen (rhymes with Canon) or Madeline

Her middle name will be Marie either way.

I think I should stop now, I'm sure most of you have stopped reading. HA!
