Week 30...

The countdown has begun! Only 10 weeks away from our precious little miracle.  We had a 3D sonogram the other day and it makes it harder to wait and meet this beautiful little girl.  It was so fun seeing who's features we think she has right now and of course she's the most beautiful little angel we've ever come across! 

The picture is yellow for some reason but it's okay. 

Cravings This Week-   Yoplait Yogurt- but the good flavors like: Boston Cream Pie, Red Velvet Cake. Basically, any flavor with the word pie or cake in the name and it ended up in my grocery cart. 

Sleeping Patterns-   See below.  After the massage I slept like a baby that night! Although, I did end up in the recliner one night. 

 Biggest Change-  I had one of my girlfriends, who is a massage therapist, come over and give me a prenatal massage.  WOW! The best thing ever when your leg is numb and your back hurts.  I felt like a completely different person afterwards.  I will be using her services weekly from now on.  Thanks to Jenny Mertz and her miraculous hands!

I have had a request for "more" baby bump pictures.  So, from now on I will be providing weekly pics of my bump as well.  No judging or comparing just because you can fit into size 4 jeans right now. 

To quote my LOVE, "She's huge!"  He really did say that to one of my girlfriends while I was standing there.  But, it's okay.  I told him that cost him a new handbag:)

Week 29...

Getting closer week by week and with the holidays these weeks are flying by! 

Cravings This Week-  COOKIES!!! I had a  cookie exchange this past weekend, so I've been eating all the yummy cookies I have leftover.  That's what the holidays are for right?

Sleeping Patterns-    What else can I say about this anymore except sleeping SUCKS!!! 

 Biggest Change-   Acid Reflux City!  I haven't had any heartburn/acid reflux since the beginning of the pregnancy and now it's hit me like a freight train! It's all the damn time.  Morning, noon, and night.  It doesn't matter what I eat either.  I could drink a sip of water and I get acid reflux from the water? If you've never had acid reflux you are really lucky.  Besides the crap coming up in your throat, the face you make when it happens isn't very pretty.  

Nursery Update -   We still have odds and ends to add to the nursery but at this point it's pretty complete. I even added a little Christmas tree to the room for festivity sake plus it gave me an excuse to put up my old purple ornaments which I love!

Diaper Bag Dilema...

The hunt has begun! For the ultimate diaper bag that is, and I have quite a dilema.  Which one to pick!  Now, you all know how crazy I am with handbags, so why would a diaper bag be any less important?  This is a tough decision.  I need it to be fashionable plus functionable.  There's a boatload of bags out there, but I've narrowed my decision down to three.  I just have to figure out which one is more practical, but still fabulous of course.  Also, I pay a lot for my handbags so don't expect anything different from a diaper bag.  Some of you might think I am crazy, but it's okay.  

Choice #1

The Olivia by storksak London -  This bag has tons of pockets! 5 on the outside and 7 on the inside.  Plus padded shoulder straps, an insulated bottle holder, and it's nylon so easy to clean.  This one seems the most practical and it's pretty cute.  Doesn't scream DIAPER BAG!  This bag comes in
at $198 and comes from London, which I have a thing for London.

 

Choice #2

Stacked Logo Billy Baby by Tory Burch- Classic Tory Burch in more of a tote form and could actually pass for a regular handbag.  It has 5 pockets on the outside, but 2 of them are so small I consider them more for looks because they aren't practical.  On the inside there's 5 pockets, but again 2 of them are pretty small.  This bag comes with a clip for stroller attachment and a strap which turns it into a cross body which sounds very appealing.   This bag is $350.

Choice #3

London Shopper Classic by Rosie Pope- This is probably the least practical out of the two and I only say that because the bag itself weights 5 pounds.  And, that's before there's anything in the bag.  It's so super chic though! This bag has a removable washable liner, shoulder straps, and changing pad. There's not quite as many pockets as the storksak, but again it's super chic.  This bag comes in at the most expensive at $365, but again it's okay. 

So, you can see how I might be in a pickle.  Which one? Which one?  If only I could find a reason to need all three!

HOLIDAY JEWELS...

It's that time of year when holiday parties are a plenty! The easiest way to dress up your holiday outfit is with a fabulous piece of jewelry.  You can wear any of these pieces below with an LBD or skirt, top, and high boots.   Plus, you'll be extra sparkly and sure to stand out! Happy Holiday Party!!!
