28 Weeks Pregnant with Will

By

Baby’s Size: Large Eggplant (Yep, 2nd time this veggie has come around… this one is apparently just “Large”)
How far along: 28 Weeks
Total weight gain: 15 pounds. I put on another pound this week. If I continue to gain a pound a week for the remainder of this pregnancy and manage to make it to full term, I will have put on 27 pounds… exactly what I did with Kenzie when I delivered her at 37 weeks.    
Sleep:  Pretty good. I’m taking numerous trips to the bathroom at night. Nothing surprising. I’m also having some difficulty kicking whatever this sinus/allergy/cold thing is that Kenzie started with two weeks ago so it keeps me up a bit at night with congestion.
Maternity Clothes: For the most part.  
Food cravings: Nothing too much at the moment. 
Symptoms I HAVE: Heartburn city. What’s new? I’m tired but we have been busy with Kenzie’s birthday party so I have been running around like crazy. Now that we are done with that, I’m hoping things calm down and I get some energy back. Some sciatic nerve pain and numbness in my left thigh. I had that too when I weighed more as well as when I was pregnant with Kenzie. It has a name, though I don’t recall what it is right now.
Stretchmarks:  No new ones but those old ones are darkening a bit more.   
Doctor’s Appointment:  2 weeks from now. I hope to be able to ask the doc if Will seems to be head down. I know there are ways I can feel for his head when I lay down, but I’m just not adept at that. I tried to feel for him and I feel random spots that I know are him, but I cannot for the life of me tell what part of his body it is.  
Movement:  Yep. He is still having dance parties fairly frequently.      
Belly Button (In or Out): In. Momma mentioned that it seems like it is not as deep and wondered if it might pop this time. Only time will tell. 
Wedding Ring (On or Off): On.
Labor Signs: None.
Gender: Boy!  
Happy or Moody Most of the Time: Pretty happy. I have been having a bit of a short temper again lately and a lot of things upset me easily but I can usually get over it fairly quickly. I chalk it up to hormones.
Best moment of the week: Kenzie’s 2nd birthday party! We had a blast and she loved it.
What I’m looking forward to: Kenzie’s actual birthday on Wednesday and getting together with my parents this weekend to celebrate Joe’s weekend. We are going to go to the Orlando Science Museum. I hope Kenzie has fun.       

What I miss: Not too much at the moment. I’m pretty content with what I have. =)

Young Summer of Fun - Bucket List Update (Week 12)

By
Honestly, I debated doing a weekly update for this week because we didn't actually check anything off the summer bucket list... but decided to go ahead and do it because we did do some fun stuff. Plus, there are only two more weeks of this (including this one) so anyone that is actually interested can read it if they want. =) This week was fairly low key. Steven was dealing with his shingles diagnosis so we didn't do anything too crazy because the main reason he likely came down with it was because he is so run down and stressed out. Kenzie had school all week. Well, except Monday but on Monday's, we dance. She did great at dance by the way! She goes to dance each week and then spends the next 6 days asking us if she has dance. We made her a calendar for the fridge that lists her activities and dance is on it. We cross off each day so she can count down to dance. Doesn't matter. She still asks. Wishful thinking, I guess. And she is still rocking school. She is doing...

Baseball, Birthdays, Picnics and Paintings

By
Whew! I'm tired. That's nothing unusual though. We had another big weekend. We started our weekly Spring Happenings list on Friday. Initially we planned on doing our Friday plans on Saturday but then Kenzie had a school friend's birthday come up so we decided to make some last minute changes. Friday afternoon Steven came home a bit early and we headed out to UCF to take in a baseball game. We have now hit up football, basketball, and baseball with the kids. They like all sports so far... though Will's first question when we mention a sporting event is always about popcorn. The kid has a popcorn problem. We love watching our kids be able to run around our alma mater's campus. It is just so cool. We love that we get to live close and go back to visit all the time as well as take in various activities and sports on campus. I'm hoping we get them so excited about UCF that they follow in our footsteps one day... though they can choose whatever they want. Except USF...

Friday Favorites: Summer Bucket List Edition

By
This week's Friday Favorite isn't a product we love but rather our long anticipated (in our family) Summer Bucket List. This is something we have been doing for about 3 years running now. We sometimes keep a running bucket list of sorts for fall and spring too. We also always have an advent calendar of activities for the month of December. I think the summer list is my favorite though. Summer is a favorite season around this house. It means pool time, beach time, and a lot of other fun things that happen like Vacation Bible School and swimming lessons. This year we have a few new things and some oldie but goodies. Technically we have quite a bit of time until summer officially begins, but we are so excited for summer that we decided to make the list now. We also decide to start summer post Memorial Day so our activities will begin in about 6 weeks. We are super excited to have a few new things this year as well as keeping a couple of things that we didn't get around to ...
