Update 10/25/11

How far along: 33 weeks, 49 days to go!
Size of baby: The size of a honeydew!
Maternity Clothes: Nothing new recently!
Gender: Baby Girl!
Movement: Lots and lots!
What I miss: My energy!
Cravings: I'm not really craving much of anything.
Symptoms: A lot of aches and pains going on but nothing serious!

UGH! Where has all of my energy gone?! I was feeling pretty good for a while. The mixture of cooler weather and my Little Miss kickboxing really lifted my moods. But now I feel like all of my energy has just been zapped out of me! It doesn't help that I have been sick with a cold for 2 weeks but still. I have been getting PLENTY of sleep and have been drinking a ton of water. I just have NO ENERGY!

I'm also getting more and more nervous as the days pass on. My husband said to me last night, "I just don't think you're going to make it to December. Actually, I don't think you're going to make it to the baby shower!" WHAT?! He says he has a feeling that Little Miss is going to be here a lot faster that we thought. I hope he's wrong!

The baby shower isn't until November 20th, 3 weeks before my actual due date. It's pretty late but it's manageable. So of course we are waiting to see what we get off of our registry before we go out and buy things. So, we have no crib or nursery furniture, we have no diapers or bottles or pacifiers, we have one blanket and a few outfits but that's about it!

The point is, we are not ready for Little Miss yet! We don't even have her room painted yet! We are hoping to get that done this week. The house isn't even close to being finished yet so that makes me nervous too. We just have so much to do and we only have 7 weeks to do it!

So, I hope my husband is wrong. I mean, I would love for Little Miss to come early but I was thinking more like the beginning of December rather than the middle of December, not in November!! I guess we will just have to wait and see.

I got a lot of RSVPs from people for my husband's 30th birthday party. We have a pretty big group now so I'm getting excited for that. It's no longer a surprise because someone actually started talking to him about it (I think she knows who she is LOL). So now he knows all about it. So I planned something else for him to do on his birthday and I am going to keep that a surprise!

This week is going to be crazy for us! We are not home at all this week. We have an interview tonight for a bookkeeper for my husband's business, we have a church meeting tomorrow night, dinner with friends Thursday night and another church meeting Friday night. It's just crazy!

My next update will be on Monday after my doctor's appointment. Hopefully we will get an ultrasound this time!

I also want to make a quick shout out to "An Ordinary Mom". Check out her blog here. She is going through a very difficult time right now with her oldest son who had a brain tumor removed recently. Please send your love to her and her family.

  1. I would just like for the record to state that I didn't give any details:) As far as I know, he still doesn't know where, I just said I didn't want to drive anywhere. :) I am not good with secrets! I have many I have kept, but lately my brain doesnt function ;)

    Love the blogs by the way! Can't believe it's almost here! Let me know if I can help with anything? I'm free now that there's no wedding planning, so please abuse me!

Blog Commenting Challenge!

Linking up with Jenna's Journey  for the 3rd Annual Blog Commenting Challenge! Hi! I'm Vanessa! I live with my husband Bryan and my amazing 6 month old Ashlyn in Pennsylvania. I was born and raised here and love it very much! We have 2 pugs, Katie and Utley, one black lab, Camo and one cat, Joey. Our second cat, Kitty, is sadly recently deceased (on Father's Day). I work full time as a Marketing Analyst for a supply chain consulting firm. I don't even know what that means really! I have been here for 3 years and am thinking about a career change. SAHM is looking better and better. My husband owns his own landscaping business which has been both wonderful and horrible at the same time! My husband and I know each other for about 17 years now and we have been together for 12. We got married in September of 2010, just 2 weeks shy of our 10th anniversary! We got pregnant after only 2 months of trying and last December we were greeted by Ashlyn Marie Miller,

I'm Not Gonna Lie

Anyone who knows me know that I LOVE Christmas.  I love the decorations.  I love to decorate my own house and see all of the other cool decorations other people have.  There is a house down the street from us that always has more lights and decorations than I have ever seen in one yard.  It's a bit much but it's an attention grabber. I love the Christmas tree.  I love to get the tree out each year (yes we have a fake because I can't stand the needles) and I love to decorate it.  Growing up, our family would decorate the tree together with all kinds of ornaments that we had collected over the years.  I like to do themes for my trees.  Last year I did pink and silver in honor of the newest member of our family.  I'm really hoping to instill the tradition of decorating the tree with my kids. I love finding the perfect gifts for people and I love to watch their reactions when they open those gifts.  I generally wait until I have purchased ALL of my gifts, I sort them

A Few New Things...

First off, I have 15 followers!  I am so grateful to have more followers.  I can't even tell you how great it makes me feel to know that people want to read my blog.  Through all of the linking up I have been doing, I have 15 followers and I have found a TON of new blogs to read.  I am really enjoying reading them all every day!! In case you don't believe me.......................... I know 15 doesn't seem like a lot but it's a lot to me.  It means the world to me to have people interested in my life.  The second change is that I added a new page.  It's my Summer Bucket List .  I posted this list a little while ago but I know that I will forget about it so I added it as a page.  Now I can actually cross things off as I do them.  I have already crossed one thing off the list and I hope to cross them all off by the end of the Summer!  I guess the end of the Summer would be September 21st so I have until then.  And if I don't get them all crosse
