Just For Fun - Pregnancy Progress Report

I have seen a couple of these progress reports from friends. I think they are fun! I will try and do one here and there!

How far along? 29 weeks 4 days
Total weight gain: 19 lbs (DON'T JUDGE ME)
Maternity clothes? Yes. It is very sad when I still think I can fit into a normal shirt and it is not even CLOSE to fitting lol
Stretch marks? No, thank you JESUS
Sleep: Not great. I get up 2-3 times a night to pee and I have a lower, right back pain. My snoogle pillow helps though!

Best moment this week: Just feeling Baby C wiggle wiggle wiggle. Thursday I have an ultrasound...can't wait!
Miss Anything? Sushi, being skinny, and being tan. You know...mostly vain stuff!
Movement: Yes. She is a wild woman. Not once have I had to panic about feeling her move. I love it.
Food cravings: Fried dough, which my wonderful mother made me last weekend. I want more.

Anything making you queasy or sick: Not eating...go figure.

Gender: Girl/ladybug! 
Labor Signs: No. Not that I would even know what to look for. Clueless mom right here. 
Symptoms: Peeing all day long. I live in the bathroom. Tired and a little nauseous here and there. Mostly just tired.

Belly Button in or out? Out and it is offensive!

Wedding rings on or off? On
Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy, but when I have a mood swing it is intense. Just ask Matt :)
Looking forward to: Seeing her face for the first time. I dream about her constantly <3

Ladybug's Nursery - The Start

We ordered our baby furniture over Christmas break, and had it delivered a couple of weeks ago. I LOVE the way it all looks in the room. I can't wait to put Baby C in her crib!! The furniture brand is Munire, and the crib will convert to a full size bed when she is older. My sister-in-law has the same brand and had all good things to say about it. I was very excited The Baby Furniture Warehouse in Reading carried the brand. This should last her a long time.

Here are some pictures of the furniture all set up. And no, Matt did not put it together haha! We had it delivered and put together...the fee was totally worth it. Especially if you know the two of us and putting things together!

Glider. Can't wait to rock her!
 I think I am also going through a little nesting phase, because as soon as the furniture came I was gung-ho on completing the stencils in her room. I ordered these stencils offline, I think they were called Bugs and Blossoms or something like that. It had ladybugs, so hell yes I bought them! The concept is simple...you stick the stencil on the wall, paint within the lines, let it dry for a few minutes and peel off the stencil. FALSE. They forgot the part about the paint ripping off your wall when taking the damn stencil off. So a lot of time was spent touching up paint, and perfecting the paint. Well worth it though. I think her accent walls came out pretty great! Matt and I worked so hard on this, and every time we go in her room we are so proud! Pics below :)

Last but not least, here are some baby bump pics. She is a real wiggle worm. At 29 1/2 weeks I can tell how big she is getting now that I can feel her little feet and elbows pressing from all angles! I do love her!
