Baby Vincent Update: Week 33

We are almost through with week 33! Grant will be here before we know it.

I am enjoying that Oklahoma is finally out of the triple digit temps, there is Even some 80's later this week! But I am feeling pretty swollen and bloated despite the cooler temps.

Peanut butter is still the best food ever! And I made some great energy bites I found on pinterest with peanut butter, oatmeal, ground flax seed, honey, and vanilla!

Our shower is this coming Saturday! And we are so excited! I will hopefully have really cute pics to put up next week! Also, our ext appointment is Thursday, I will be 34 weeks!!

It's Monday already?! The weekend flew by with all of our activities for Bond's birthday. We ate out all weekend with friends and family so this week we need some good healthy homemade meals! We do have one evening event on Tuesday, but other than that we will eat at home all week!

Monday - whole wheat spaghetti with artichoke hearts and chicken sausage stuffed with spinach and asiago.

Tuesday - we have a young adults event for church at a restaurant, Hideaway Pizza, that is just 2 blocks from our church. Fingers crossed for a good turn out!

Wednesday - lentils, green peppers, tomato. and diced grilled chicken with some salsa

Thursday - flat out pizzas with spinach, green pepper, and tomato

Friday - something easy, maybe frozen pizza or flat outs again??



What is on your menu this week?

Fill in the blank Friday

Happy Friday! Here are some birthday themed blanks! Which is fun because Bond's birthday is this weekend :)

1. The age I will be on my upcoming birthday is the big 3-0!
2. The best birthday present ever would be to have a healthy happy 4 week old baby boy!
3. My favorite birthday to date was this is a hard one, I have a Halloween party for my birthday every year, November 1^st is my birthday so it makes sense! This means they are all really fun. I guess my 21^st was pretty fun, at midnight on Halloween we went to a bar so I could get ID’d for the first time!!
4. Birthdays make me feel happy J
5. The worst birthday I ever had was probably one I have blocked from memory because I can’t think of a birthday that stands out as bad.
6. When I was born it was November 1, 1982. I was 9 pounds, it was 2:30 pm in Girard Kansas (although my parents lived in another small town nearby).
7. So far my favorite age has been 29! This year has been full of new and incredible experiences and I am excited to add one more, motherhood, before I turn 30!

Happy Friday!

What I'm loving Wednesday

I can't believe it's Wednesday already! This week has been so busy and there is no end to the crazy schedule in sight! Here are some things I'm loving...

I'm loving the new HBON series The Newsroom. It is another great show from Aaron Sorkin you should definitely check it out, the pilot is on YouTube.

I'm loving some Pinterest finds this week. Obviously I am ready for cool weather as soup and candy corn cookies are not quite in season yet :)

I'm loving... These amazing earrings my sister is selling on her new Etsy store. Find her at knitstitchcreations

I'm loving... As always my amazing husband who turns 29 this weekend! A year ago this week we spent 7 wonderful days in Napa Valley with some amazing friends!

 

What are you loving this week?

Baby Vincent Update: week 32

So again I'm almost 33 weeks, but here is the week 32 update. Better late than never! Let's start with they have changed my due date by a few days from October 1st to September 27th.

I am eating a lot of peanut butter! On everything, bread, fruit, veggies, my finger...

Little Grant is moving a lot and making me uncomfortable about 50% of the time with his various positions. He is really enjoying wedging himself into my ribs a couple times a day :)

Overall I am still feeling good, 32 weeks pregnant, but good. The heat is decreasing slightly so that is good news too! We are excited for September and getting the nursery together!

Our next appointment is August 15th!

Menu Monday

It's Monday again already! The weekend went too fast. I stuck to last weeks menu except for one night, and I still cooked, just made flat pizza again instead of chicken black bean corn salad. So I am hoping this menu keeps me on track again this week.

Monday - black lentils with some veggies and grilled chicken. I am thinking red and green peppers, onion, and diced tomatoes. And maybe wrap it in a tortilla.

Tuesday - we are going out to dinner to celebrate my brother in laws birthday so no cooking.

Wednesday - flat out pizza with green pepper, tomato, and spinach.

Thursday - I am going to the theater with my sister and Bond has plans to go a happy hour event downtown so probably just a sandwich or something else really quick.

Friday - I have book club but may make a frozen pizza before hand to split with Bond.

 

What is your menu this week?

Fill in the blank Friday

Happy Friday! I haven't done a fill in the blank in a while so here we go!

1. I am proud of the effort I put into my relationships, both personal and professional.
2. This weekend I will host my sister’s first Mary Kay party in Oklahoma!
3. A secret dream I have is to be a personal organizer. I would love to be paid to organize other peoples stuff, schedules, anything!!
4. I can’t handle people who are not honest with their actions, be who you are and ask for what you want.
5. The most annoying thing in the entire world is traffic!
6. The most relaxing thing in the entire world is a foot massage
7. I think everyone should see a therapist/counselor sometime in their life. Everyone has issues they need to work out and a completely neutral third party is a healthy way to do that.

 

Have a great weekend!

Baby Vincent Update: Week 31

I am just barely getting this one up in time! I will actually be 32 weeks tomorrow! I am feeling good and Baby Grant is doing well. This morningnhenhad a good strong heartbeat and everything looked good!

It is HOT in Oklahoma, but I am drinking lots of water and staying in doors as much as possible. It actually hasn't been that bad, I think very comparable to last summer and I was not pregnant. I hope you are staying cool as well.

I am getting pretty big, butmitnhas not slowed me down too much. We have had lots of events and fun things in the last few weeks and I am still working out 4-5 days a week. We have been so busy that the baby furniture arrived, and is still in boxes. When we do get it together I will put up pictures.

We are also getting excited about up coming baby showers! We are having a co-Ed shower in about 2 1/2 weeks and my office is doing one at the end of the month as well. Hopefully we will get our act together with the nursery by labor day!!

our next appointment is August 15th!
