Baby Shower

Over this past weekend my mom and Chelsie threw me a baby shower with some friends and family.

I was so thankful for all those who came and supported us by coming to the shower. We got a bunch of clothes and other boy items that we were in need of. After having only girls, we were in need desperate need of boy stuff. So thank you for all your gifts!

Here I am at a couple days shy of 31 weeks along. I am still feeling well. At our last appointment when I was 30 weeks along, our doctor estimated he weighed about 3 lbs 15 ounces. I can't wait to see how big of a baby he actually is. We're counting down the weeks now, can't believe we get to see his little face in the next couple months!

Natural History Museum

This past week we met my mom at the Natural History Museum. It was our first ever going and the girls loved it! So much to see and play with. Addie's little finger was out almost the whole time pointing at everything. Both girls especially loved the dinosaur bones.

We will be going back for sure!

7 Months

I am 29 weeks pregnant today. We had our last ultrasound when I was at 26 weeks pregnant. I hadn't seen my regular doctor for 6 weeks when we went in at 26 weeks because of our big ultrasound at 22 weeks. In the six weeks since I had seen my doctor I gained 12 lbs! I was shocked since up until that point I had only gained 6 pounds in 20 weeks. 18 pounds total isn't bad but it was shocking to see the weight finally come on. And it made sense since at 20 weeks I finally started feeling better and my appetite had started to return. He approximately weighed 2 pounds 4 ounces and looked good.

As for myself, at 7 months I'm feeling pretty good. Normal aches and pains. However I feel huge! Our little guy is so active, its crazy. I don't know if its that he's pretty strong at his little size or that I just can't remember how much babies move around in my belly, but I swear he is more active than my previous pregnancies. I just started feeling him get hiccups as well. I love feeling him move around even when it's uncomfortable. I can't wait to see his little face!

Here I am at 24 weeks...

And at 28 weeks along...

I go back in next week for my 30 week check up, and then I start going every two weeks! His due date is getting so close!

Our weather lately...

This Winter has been so odd. Really we've only had one big snow storm at Christmas and other than that only little storms that didn't do too much. The girls have only been able to play in the snow once this winter. It's so weird. I bought Cambree snow boots and I ended up returning them knowing that we most likely wouldn't use them.

I'm not much of a winter person, so I don't mind our spring like weather...it's just not normal for Utah. Benton's been busy doing yard work and we've been able to go on walks. It's nice getting out of the house and not freezing.

This weekend the girls were able to ride their bikes as well.

The forecast for this week looks like spring as well. Where are you Winter?
