33 weeks!


Have you started to show yet? Feeling huge!
Food cravings: I really want sushi. Every day. :(
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope. Heartburn has replaced queasiness.
Miss Anything? Advil. I've been having sciatic pain and it's a monster.
Mood: I've been a littttttlllleee bitchy lately. ;)
Sleep: I've been sleeping well! The last few days I've slept 6 hours straight without having to pee. 
Best moment this week: Getting the crib set up! It's feeling so real now. 
Annoyances: Just leg and back pain. I feel like I've been riding a horse for hours. I guess it's called SPD...it's awful.
Maternity clothes? All day, every day! I don't mind them, they're so comfortable!
Symptoms: Heartburn, SPD, sciatic pain, swelling when I stand too long. Can the next 7 weeks just fly by? Kthanksbye.
Movement: All the time! He's getting so big, I wish I could add more room for him. 
Belly button in or out? It's officially flat this week!
Wedding rings on or off? Still just my wedding band. 
Looking forward to:  Getting the rest of the decor up. I am going to put some shelving and art above the changing table, and possibly some art above the crib in the bedroom.
To recap, we put up the crib in our bedroom this weekend! Here's a shot of it all set up:

31 weeks!

Welp, I got a little busy and wasn't able to do a post last week. This week got away from me as well with all of the festivities and travel, so I will have to improvise! Here's a shot of my beautiful cousin and I, from lunch on Tuesday.
I thought it would be fun to post a picture from when this all started, to give some perspective (and make me feel quite large!). 5 weeks to 31 weeks:
What a difference a few months makes!

Have you started to show yet? Oh god, yes.
Food cravings: I had a crazy craving for Firewood Cafe's tortellini and house sauce. I was able to satiate that while I was down in Napa...SO amazing!
Anything making you queasy or sick: Nothing at the moment!
Miss Anything? Yellowfin tuna salad!
Mood: Good, but I have been feeling a little more ornery than normal.
Sleep: Eh, it's okay. I am waking up about 3 times a night to pee, and I have a hard time falling asleep once I've gotten up. I've definitely added a half-caff coffee every morning because I'm usually really tired.
Best moment this week: So many to talk about! First things first, my baby shower on Sunday was amazing. My mom did such an amazing job and I really was so blown away. Second would be getting to spend time with my family. I really do miss them more than I realize, and try to soak up all the time I can with them. Third, Valentine's Day today! Erin and I went and picked out chocolates together (I'm too particular these days and Erin knew it would be safe to get the ones I actually want!), and we'll go out to dinner at one of our favorite spots. 
Annoyances: This new ache that makes it feel like I've been riding a horse. It literally feels like I did 10,000 plie squats. Doctor says it's normal :(.
Maternity clothes? Ohhh yeah. regular clothes just aren't happening.
Symptoms: Tired, the ache mentioned in 'annoyances', back pain, heartburn, swelling in my feet and hands.
Movement: All day everyday! He's still bottom-down, so I'm getting some really strong kicks on my side.
Belly button in or out? Nearly flat!
Wedding rings on or off? Still just my wedding band. 
Looking forward to:  Getting some nursery projects done this weekend! Thanks to my shower and all of my generous friends and family, we're able to start getting things organized and put away :)

Xoxo,
Kelsey
