Spring Break || Playing Catch Up

Hello! I took a week off from blogging during my spring break. Even though I had time, and things to talk about, it was nice to just relax.

The first weekend of spring break was gorgeous! I ran a bunch errands, did our taxes, and nested like crazy. Chris was out of the house helping his aunt, so I always feel like I get more done when he is gone. Any other women feel this way?

During the week I had a great system of working and relaxing. I would doing a few things, then rest. Do a few more things, then rest. I even squeezed in two naps because I felt so, so exhausted!

Monday we had a doctor's appointment. I got checked for the first time and the doctor said, "Oh! He is RIGHT there!" Then she proceeded to tell us to make sure we have everything ready because, at this point, he could come anytime. 

The rest of the week was full of breakfasts, lunches, and dinners with my favorite girls, shopping for last minute nursery items, hitting up Sonic happy hour twice, and lots of resting. It rained all week which made it easy to relax. 

The nursery is almost done and I can 't wait for a full reveal. It has turned out totally different than my vision, but I'm in love with it! 

Below are some snaps from my week. Honestly, I am dreading going back to school, but I know the countdown is on!

This past weekend we had our infant CPR class followed by a million things to do. We took the pups to get their shots, hung some final things in the nursery, worked on some touch ups in the kitchen, did lots of cleaning, ate tons of ice cream, relaxed, and tried to stay busy because we know that our days are numbered!

Today I am back at school, so wish me luck! I'm bigger and less mobile than ever before, so I can only imagine how tired I'll be at the end of each day. Graham is due April 8th, but I won't mind if he came just a tad early. Momma is ready to stay home and cuddle a newborn!

Happy Monday!

Pregnancy Update

How far along: 35

Baby size: 20 inches and 5.5 pounds!

Sleep: Sleep is still great, BUT pregnancy carpal tunnel has decided to grace me with its presence and it is PAINFUL. For a couple days I was waking up with severe pain in my hands....like I couldn't even push myself up out of bed. I thought I was just sleeping on my hands/arms funny. Then, it got worse and the pain was drifting up my arms. After posting on instagram, and getting so many recommendations, I've been icing every night, followed by a massage by Chris, and then sleeping with my hands above my head. The ice really helps, so I hope I can keep the pain to a manageable level. 

Belly button: Still not popped! Thank The Lord!

Maternity clothes: Leggings everyday with some top that doesn't look like a crop top. Converse are on repeat. I even tried to wear the dress I wore to my shower and it is getting short!

Movement: Little man gets the hiccups all the time and lives on my right side. He is still head down and has no problem stretching out in the little space that is left for him. 

Cravings: Water. The cotton mouth is crazy!

Symptoms: See the sleep section. Other than the carpal tunnel, the hip pain has been better. Not sure what changed, but it hasn't been as severe. Also, the general exhaustion has set in. All I want to do is not be on my feet. 

Wedding rings: Still off. Some days hands are swollen, some days they aren't, but, like I said before, it is like my knuckles have grown.

Looking forward to: Spring Break next week! I just have to survive today and then I have a glorious week off. I have so many things to do and I'm looking forward to the relaxation!

Nursery progress: I am hoping to finish everything over Spring Break. I have everything put away. All that's left is decorations...which I can't decide where I want to put everything. Poor Chris has held up so many things on the wall he finally told me to just let him know when I'm ready to hang things up, haha!

Appointments: We go on Monday and our doctor said she will estimate how big he is! From now on we have weekly appointments, so I feel like things are getting real!

Happy Friday!

WIWW: After Baby Wants + A Sale + Link Up

The amount of items in my closet that fit is getting smaller and smaller. I feel like my outfits are on repeat, but I'm getting through it by dreaming about wearing normal clothes again. And, to top it off, I think we are on the spring horizon, so I can't wait to pull out my sandals and dresses and get some sun on these legs! 

Luckily, Shopbop is having a huge sale! I can't wait to get my hands on some fun summer pieces. 

Sam Edelman sandals are my favorite. I finally bought a pair last year and haven't looked back since. For the amount of times I wear them, they are totally worth the money. 

Everyone raves about Mara Hoffman swimsuits, so depending on how much God helps this body bounce back, I'm excited to get to a pool this summer. Graham already has the cutest little swim diapers that he needs to show off to all the ladies :)

I might have a pair of these on their way to me as I type...and I'm super excited!!

Okay, I should get off the computer now before my bank account starts crying!

Don't forget the sale runs through Saturday, March 5th, so get your goodies while you can!
