31 weeks!

again, a few days late! i have no excuse! 


what’s new with baby: our sweet baby girl is now over 16 inches long and weighs about 3.3 pounds! she can turn her head from side to side and her arms, legs, and body are plumping up with needed fat! 

what’s new with mom: i've been doing pretty good! still tired and achey a lot, but i did have a couple much needed bursts of energy this week! on tuesday i woke up and went to work organizing the nursery closet and the office/guest bedroom. the office went from anxiety-attack-i-can-barely-walk-in-here to oh-look-someone-could-actually-stay-in-here within hours! i love organization! i even listed a few things on amazon and made over $120 this week! the baby stuff is now centrally located in the baby's room (crazy, i know! but it had been first in the dining room and then in the office when we painted) and pretty organized, pending another shower before final preparations and decisions are made. this week i also made a nursing cover for myself! 

wardrobe: no change here! 

cravings: hmm... a little bit of everything? my newest interest is definitely amy's indian samosa wrap. YUM. i've been wanting indian food for a while but we haven't been eating out much, so this fits the bill perfectly! seriously, if anyone knows how i can get these for less than a a couple bucks a piece, please let me know! 

anything hard? nothing new here - restful sleep! i'm also getting to the point of feeling like i really don't want to bend over and i'd prefer help getting up off the couch! (i'm fine to do it myself, but if josh is near by i might ask just for fun!) and i've been bumping my stomach into things more and more. since when did the kitchen counter stick out that far!? :)

best moment(s) of the week: josh and i had a much needed date night saturday night which was definitely fun! of course over dinner i told him how i'm on mental overdrive with all this baby stuff - constantly reading and trying to consume information and makings lists and even dreaming about stuff like changing pad covers - i'm so romantic! but it was fun and we ended the night with dessert and shopping for board books for olivia at a local used book store, and then we went back home and read them to each other for practice! (you should seriously ask josh to hear his rendition of Little Mouse, the Red Ripe Strawberry, and the Big Hungry Bear! it's quite the performance!)
