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!!

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!

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!

Baby Vincent Update: Week 30

I am completely behind this week! We had three evening events this week and work was crazy, but here is this weeks update! (Not sure why but the pics this week are not very clear)

I am still feeling good, very pregnant, but good! Grant is moving a lot and taking up so much room. I am still getting in regular workouts, but I am more tired than a few weeks ago.

Our crib and dresser arrived this week but they are still in boxes. I am getting excited to get started on putting the nursery together!

Our next appointment is Wednesday so I will definitely update sooner next week.

Baby Vincent update: Week 29

We had another check up today so I waited to post an update. Grant had a good string heartbeat at 138 beats per minute and everything else was good too.

This week the temperatures have crossed to triple digits with no relief in sight so I am spending pretty much all my time indoors.

I am really liking peanut butter right now! With jelly, with bananas, with chocolate, on bread, waffles, spoons....

I am also keeping up with exercise, the elliptical for longer workouts and standing prenatal yoga for shorter workouts. We are still very busy, but i am making sure I relax when possible and get to bed early! Our next appointment is in two weeks, but I will continue the weekly updates!!

Baby Vincent Update: Week 28

I am way behind on blogging again this week! I am almost 29 weeks (by some calculators I already am!) but here is an update anyway :)

I am definitely into the third trimester. Last weekend my energy just disappeared. I took an epic nap on Sunday, the kind that hasn't happened since week 11, and was still ready for bed early. So lots of tired this week. But also excited about "baby boot camp" this weekend. Bond and I signed up for all the classes our doctor/hospital offer jammed into one weekend.

I decided to squeeze into the shirt I had been using for baby updates one last time, but I think I am officially too big for it to be comfortable so I will be using alternate shirts from now on.

We also made some purchases last weekend for Grant. A crib, dresser/changer combo, car seat and stroller. Then we started our registry, which is almost finished. I have done it online, but Target is one of the places we registered so people should be able to fins things in stores if they want. My goal is to finalize it Friday evening.

One last belly pick for the week...

Baby Vincent update: week 27

So week 27 is about over but we were on a wonderful trip to San Francisco and then celebrating July 4th, so here is what is happening this week...

I had a really good time eating all the delicious cuisines found in San Francisco!

And this is the cute dress my sis altered for the 4th of July!

We had a check up yesterday as well and Grant had a good heart beat at 138 and everything looked right on track. We start visits every two weeks now!

Have a great weekend!

Baby Vincent Update: week 26

All is good at the Vincent home. We are into week 26 and still feel pretty good. I am starting to feel too large to do some things, like bend at some angles, but I can do pretty much everything else.

I am on my own this week, but only until Thursday when I join Bond in San Fransico for a mini baby moon. I am very excited, especially because I get to see one of my best friends that recently moved out there. Since I am on my own I had to improvise a picture this week, and it is in a new OU shirt!

We have an appointment next Thursday, so that will probably be my next update as well. If you don't visit again before then have a great 4th of July!

Baby Vincent Update: week 25

We are into week 25. I should have done an update post yesterday but I was too tired...oh well.

I am feeling good and lots of kicks! He is getting stronger each day.

 

I am eating a lot of sandwiches. Peanut butter and jelly and meat and cheese, plus some spinach and tomato...yum! Subway is also my friend lately :)

We have our next appointment next two weeks from tomorrow!

 

 

Baby Vincent Update: week 24

We are almost through 6 months, it is going so fast, mostly because we have been so busy!



We had a marathon weekend in Tulsa for Liz and Scott's wedding. It we beautiful, but I was so physically exhausted, I had no idea being a bridesmaid pregnant would make me sleep for two days!


As you can see I will soon have to start taking pictures in different clothes! These are barely fitting, no not too comfortably.


We haven't really started on the nursery, but we have decided to go with a Winnie the pooh theme, using the classic pooh bear. My wonderful sister is sewing most of it so I need to get the fabric picked out and the furniture bought pronto! I think a carseat is the only other purchase we will make before our shower in August!

I have an appointment tomorrow so watch for another brief update!

Baby Vincent Update : Week 23

We are into week 23. I am feeling great and feeling Baby Grant a lot!




One exciting thing that happened over the weekend was Bond got to feel Baby Grant move too. After the Thunder win on Saturday we watched a movie and he was moving all around, then I thought I felt him on the outside and Bond did not have to wait long to confirm. I was so happy Bond got to be there!




I am eating fruit and hard boiled eggs for my snacks at work. They travel well and are filling.



I am feeling great! My weight is on the high side, but I am sticking with smart food choices and exercising 5-6 days a week. Sometimes it's elliptical or yoga, or like last Saturday when Bond took me to the zoo and we walked for 3 hours, and got to see the baby elephant!



Our next appointment is Wednesday July 13th so stay tuned!

Baby Vincent Update: Week 22

We are at the 22 week mark with little Grant and I am feeling him move now!



It feels like air bubbles, and I'm not sure he sleeps much, just like his Dad!



Overall I am feeling good. I am still getting in 3-5 workouts a week depending on our schedules, and I alternate prenatal yoga with the elliptical.

I feel like I eat all the time, but I am making mostly healthy decisions, with a few small bowls of ice cream or slices of pizza mixed in!



For some great baby stuff my sister is making check out my what I'm loving Wednesday!

Baby Vincent Update: Week 21

Happy Tuesday! So I am slacking this week and didn't post a menu Monday, but we are cooking at home all week, especially because I get to share the cooking with my sister who is staying with us while her and her husband get settled in OKC.

Here is what is happening with Baby Grant this week....



I am of course are feeling great this week, we know it's a boy! And he is healthy!! I am mostly eating fruit and really enjoying pizza! Which is not the healthiest thing, but I am sticking mostly to fruit and whole wheats.




After two weekends of traveling I am a bit above the "ideal" weight gain at 20 pounds up, but I am back to my regular routine with eating and working out, and I feel great...most of the time.

Oh and in case you missed the post last Wednesday Baby V is officially Grant Don Ross Vincent. Yes two middle names, just like is Dad!

Baby Vincent Update: week 19

We are one week a way from our next appoint, and yes we will know if Baby V is a boy or a girl, assuming He/She cooperates during the ultrasound.

This week I am so happy to be done traveling for a bit, it really wears me out!




I am also ready to get back into my normal workout and sleeping routines. I am especially missing my prenatal yoga, it really helps with all the little aches.




I have been eating a lot of bagels, especially while traveling. It's on of the foods I know I can get anywhere and it will satisfy and not upset anything.



I liked this pic, because you can see my bump from the front now too!

Baby Vincent update: week 18

We are now at 18 weeks. The count down is on to find out boy or girl! Just two weeks from tomorrow!



I am feeling bigger this week and have gone up two more pounds, which is a bit above average but still in the normal range.

I feel like I am eating everything in sight, but pasta and chicken sausages have been staple dinners lately.




I have been pretty tired lately too, but mostly because I am so busy! Lots of travel which Is extra tiring, but really fun! I am going to try and start taking more random pictures and in some cuter clothes so keep a look out!
