33 Weeks Pregnant with Will


Baby’s Size: Durian Fruit… whatever that is
How far along: 33 Weeks
Total weight gain: About 20 lbs. I put on about 2 pounds this week. I think at least half a pound should have gone straight to Will (maybe more) so I’m okay with that. I’ve been eating more than usual. I know that. I need to watch what I eat though to make sure that any weight I gain is at least from good sources. Sweets have sounded really good lately though. =)
Sleep:  Not been that great lately. I not only get up quite a few times a night but I have a lot of trouble staying comfortable. It’s okay except for the fact that there is no sleeping in and no real naps because even when Kenzie naps I have a ton of things to get done. We had an issue a few nights ago with our power going off at night for some reason. It happened twice. It gets hot FAST when the air goes out. The second time it went out it was out for much longer. Not fun. It woke me up both times and I would get so hot that I had trouble getting back to sleep. 
Maternity Clothes: Pretty much. Still have a few things I can wear that aren’t maternity and just stretch.  
Food cravings: Sweets lately. Weird for me. Usually I am all about salty foods and most of my “cravings” thus far have involved salty food.  
Symptoms I HAVE: All the norm still. Heartburn, Braxton Hicks, the numbness in my left leg periodically, tiredness, etc. Nothing new to report.
Stretchmarks:  No new ones.
Doctor’s Appointment:  Next week. =)
Movement:  Of course. He is still moving like crazy. I think he has been moving slightly less as he is getting bigger and bigger. He mainly just pushes into my ribs or bladder when he stretches out. Not as many all out kicks any longer.  
Belly Button (In or Out): In. Now Steven has decided that it will stay that way. We shall see.   
Wedding Ring (On or Off): On.
Labor Signs: None.
Gender: Boy!  
Happy or Moody Most of the Time: Happy 
Best moment of the week: We had a few. UCF football! College Football in general! We also had Will’s crib delivered this weekend. Super fun! Almost done with his room. I can’t wait to get it all together.  
What I’m looking forward to: Finishing up Will’s room. Getting my hospital bag packed. Finishing Kenzie’s big sis gift from Will. So much to do but all of it is so fun! 

What I miss: Sleeping peacefully at night. That won’t be happening for quite some time though.

Baseball, Birthdays, Picnics and Paintings

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

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 ...

13 Weeks to 13 Miles! OUC Orlando Half Marathon Training: Week 7

This is it. This is officially the middle week of the 13 weeks to 13 miles training plan. It's the odd man out week. It is also the week after our rest week and the week that things really start to pick up speed. We have mostly done overall low mileage weeks up until this point topping out at 13 miles which is overall less than the half marathon... by a measly .1 mile but that mileage was all divvied up over 3 runs so it's definitely not the same. Now we start ramping up and we don't slow down until the week before the race when we essentially taper. This week is an overall 15 miles and by the end, we will top out at 22 weekly miles. Eek. We can do it! I know we can. I hope. Haha! Tuesday Plan: 4 Miles, Actual: 4 Miles Whew! Another run in the books. This one was probably one of the worst ones so far. Not because I didn't run okay. I was actually fine for most of the run. I kept my 1:1 intervals and paced about 13:30 without too many outliers as far as timing goes. ...
