28 weeks

28 weeks down, 3 months to go! OMG I feel huge already. It's gonna be a loooong 3 months.


This is me 28 weeks pregnant with Kenna. As you can see, I'm much bigger this time. Eeeek!!!

Progress

As you can see.. I have made progress. This week we had a major heat wave so I used this as an opportunity to sweat my booty off and get to work. It really only took me 2 days to paint. Then today Ryan cleared out the rest of the junk and put together the furniture. We still have yet to pull Kenna's old crib out of the attic. Ryan is avoiding it like none other. He put the bouncy chair and bassinet together without me even asking. I think it was his way of diverging my attention for the big empty spot where the crib should go. He also keeps reminding me that the baby is going to end up sleeping in our bed anyways since I plan to breastfeed ( and I'm terribly lazy, and don't want to get up in the middle of the night to feed lol ). As you mama's know.. it doesn't really matter where the baby sleeps. Their room needs to decorated and ready to go anyways!! I think it's a pregnancy hormones and being prepared thing.

I have the bedding for both crib and the twin bed on order from pottery barn, as well at the curtain valances. We haven't picked out a dresser yet but never the less, I feel like it's finally coming together!

Ugh!!!

Everytime I try to load more wedding pictures up, it wont work. Grr....

July 19th, 2008

This coming Sunday is Ryan and my first wedding anniversary ! On Monday the 20th, we will have known eachother 2 years. We got married 1 day shy of knowing eachother a full year. Anyways.. I thought for the next few days I'd post some of my favorite wedding pictures. Oh gosh that was such a fun day..

3D Ultrasound

We had our first 3D ultrasound appointment this morning. It was sooo cool!! He is so stinking cute, it just makes me love him a million times more than I already did. He's a bit of a weirdo and kept licking and was trying to suck on his hands and arms lol. We got lots of cute shots with his tongue sticking out. The tech said that it's possible he was just tasting the Orange Juice I drank before my appointment. He was having a hard time getting his thumb into his mouth, and had a little temper tantrum. It was so cute, he wrinkled his nose and squished up his face and gave me a big kick. She also said, it looks like he's gonna be a face scratcher. He constantly had his hands all over his face. He's a chubby one already! He's got my double chin, and big cheeks. She says it's quite possible.. he could end up being as big as his sister was. EEEK! We get to go back at the end of August :)

trying to get his thumb in his mouth

big smile!

look at those cheekies

licking his arm

and.. trying to suck on his arm.

Bye Bye Baby Hair :(

Kenna has been bugging me for months to get her hair cut again. She told me she wanted her hair just like her friends/daycare kids, Hannah and Daisy. They both have chin length hair, but I just couldn't bring myself to let her cut THAT much off. I finally made her an appointment with Brook, and off we went to the salon. Kenna will only let Brook cut her hair. She's my stylist ( the one who did my platinum blonde for all those years) and also the one who did our hair for the wedding. She's really attatched to her for some reason.

Before

please excuse the wet "sprinkler and slip and slide" hair lol

After!!!

a classic Kenna "wierd picture face"

Brook says that was the last of her baby hair, and the last of her baby curls :( She absolutely loves it though, and it is MUCH easier to take care of for me. Every morning asks me to curl it for her. I'm just wondering what kind of monster I've created!

Our trip to Ocean Shores

A few weeks ago we went camping at the beach. It was a nice break from home and work, and the normal day to day stuff. Being 6 months pregnant and camping wasn't THAT horrible! We had an aero bed to sleep on, but still... I have a feeling that will be our last camping trip for this summer. We orginally thought it would super cool to go the weekend of the sandcastle festival. They have a big sandcastle contest and all kind of activities. Once we got there and saw all the crowds and realized that Kenna had NO interest in the sandcastles.. we quickly found a much less crowded part of the beach and spent family time. All and all we had a really good time. By the time I got home, i was sooo sore ( I swear I walked 5 miles on Saturday) and my feet were so swollen and puffy, I got sunburned/windburned and was pretty much miserable. It was all worth it though! Kenna making her own Sandcastle

This was her telling him.. his sandcastle was not a good one lol!

She ran up and down the beach all day long and searched for Sand dollars :)
