I love my little shrimp!...


My due date is just four short weeks away, March 10th! My once-poppy seed that I didn't even know existed until 5 months later could probably be able to breathe on her own if she was born right now. Most of her systems are in working order at 36 weeks and need just a little more time for her lungs to fully develop. Her lungs and breathing are doing good each week we go for our ultrasound so that is awesome! She is now the size of a honeydew and I can tell that she is having less room to move around in my belly. Most spots of my tummy are hard and you can feel her pretty much anywhere you feel around. During her last ultrasound we were told that she has a lot of hair and that makes me super excited!! At this point all I can do is wonder what she is going to look like beside the fact that we have got a pretty good idea with the 4-D ultrasound we had done. It's more like is she going to have dark or light skin and hair, green or brown eyes, my dimple chin or her daddy's dimpled cheeks!?? I can't freakin' wait! No matter what I know she will be adorable :)

At this point I have our hospital bags packed and her little coming home outfit ironed and I'm working on a little sweater to go with it. Hopefully I can get it done before she gets here along with her never ending "baby" blanket that turned into a throw sized or toddler sized blanket. Which is fine since she has a ton of smaller blankies anyway and she can use this one forever.

I turned 30 years old this month on the 4th and I am soo excited that I will get to share my 30's with a daughter of my own! I always said if I don't have kids by the time I'm 30 then I'm just not going to have any. Well looks like I am and I couldn't be happier. Jeremiah took us out for dinner on my birthday to Red Lobster. If you know me at all or even a little you might know that I LOVE shrimp!! So naturally I ordered shrimp, we had salads and bread before our meals and then when it was time for the shrimp Poesy had her butt, legs, and feet so high in my ribs I could barely breathe let alone eat! I managed to get a few down but let me tell ya it was hard and I didn't get dessert either. Sooooo needless to say this kid is gonna own me a birthday dinner someday, hahaha!

Here we are on Wednesday at our weekly ultrasound appointment...

Here I am stuffed to the brim at Red Lobster for my birthday...


See ya back in a few days with the lastest updates!

She's alive....

That would be me. I haven't blogged in over a month! I've been so exhausted with working overtime and my blood sugar has been out of wack too which makes me feel really tired and fatigue all the time. It really sucks but I try to deal with it the best I can. I did however lose the eleven pounds I wanted to lose, so im happy about that. I'm living with by boyfriend so I'm not working at home right now, I'm actually going into work for the time being. I also applied for a new position at work so I'm hoping I get it and a good schedule too. I got out of work early today went and had lunch with my mom and took a longish nap. It was great! I really love naps, I wake up feeling recharged! Then I did a haircut, watched some American Idol, then went and got a Slurpee (which I have be craving for over a week). In other news my birthday was on the 4th and I turned 28! I can't believe it....where do the years go? I still feel like a youngin' :) Here are ...

Wednesday Window Shopping V.1...

Image
Happy Holidays! Today is the first day of December in case you didn't know - which means you only have 24 shopping days until Christmas left!! This is the first year EVER that I have actually been on top of my shopping through out the year. This only leaves me with a select few I still need gifts for. So instead of doing my "Wednesday Wishes" post I'm changing it to "Wednesday Window Shopping"! I think more than likely this will be a permanent change since I LOVE SHOPPING. So here we go... I think this would make a really awesome gift for that studdly coffee or hey even cocoa drinker in your family or a quirky friend! I have a set minus the mustaches (I wish I had these instead) I love them :) {via} Now how about these for the cute and fun baker in your family!? I just think they are soo cute and I have been drooling over them for quite sometime. I have no idea why I haven't bought them yet. {via} I think these lovely Moccasin Slippers would make suc...

Life with Poe: Sleep, Eat, Poo!

Image
My little Poesy Quinn is learning new things everyday. She has rolled over, can stand up while leaning up against something, and has become quite the babbling boo! She talks and talks and talks in her little raspy voice. She has the prettiest big-open-mouthed smile I have ever seen but of course I'm never fast enough to capture a photo of it. She is taking longer naps and sleeps good through the night waking up only one time to eat. We switched her from breast milk to a new formula since she has colic and it seems to be be working, she seems happier which make me happier. The only down fall to the new formula is the stinky/explosive diapers!!! Awe the joys of being a mom, as they say. Will I miss these stinky diaper one day?? Only time will tell. Here is my stinky Poe sleeping, she is so beautiful!
