Hello all! I finished week 35 of my pregnancy! We are really getting close, aren’t we? 4 or 5 more weeks!!
How I feel
I’m still enjoying the nesting phase! We’ve been crossing more off our to-do list: spray painting the frames we are going to hang in the nursery, and getting all of our “to donate” piles to the car. This weekend we will try to pack the baby and momma bags for the birth center.
Most of the time I feel great, but this week on Monday evening I had a really rough night. I [...]
I’ve DEFINITELY been getting into the nesting mode, and enjoying it! My husband is also feeling that the time is nearing when we will get to see Baby Girl – he is really excited to see her. I’m not so impatient to see her yet, because there is so much I still want to accomplish before she arrives! (Though we got alot accomplished this weekend. More on that later.)
We’ve been to the birth center a LOT this last week. Last Wednesday we went to the water birth class. After [...]
Hello all! I finished week 33 of my pregnancy! Can you believe my due date is less than two months away!?
How I feel
I’ve DEFINITELY been getting into the nesting mode, and enjoying it! (See more below in “Best Moment this week”). I’m now ready to have the baby yet, but I just want to spend all my time reading and prepping for a baby coming! Why didn’t I have this drive 2nd trimester? Weird. Right now I feel anxious to be done with work, so I can nest. Maybe if I wasn’t working, I would be anxious to have [...]
I’m so excited to show this project off!! Creating this has been on my mind almost since we found out we were having a girl back in January! I needed a cute way to show off all the adorable outfits and dresses we would be receiving!!
DIY Baby Armoire
I saw this idea to redo a bookcase on Pinterest and immediately added it to my Pinterest Nursery board. If you have been reading my bump updates you know we’ve been searching to buy a used bookcase for some time, but I just couldn’t wait any longer and my [...]
Hello all! It’s time for a pregnancy update! Can you believe my due date is less than two months away!?
How I feel
I’ve DEFINITELY been getting into the nesting mode!! Every morning this week I’ve woken up with something on my mind and the urge to organize or nest! Monday and Tuesday my mind was on making a list of things I needed to “buy” to organize the nursery. However, since we don’t have a lot of money I spent the time I had “pinning” to my nursery board and brainstorming ways to make our space work. Check out [...]
Hello all! It’s time for a pregnancy update! Still a little late with my pregnancy update…. we had another busy weekend.
How I feel/slept
Feeling pretty worn out most days and the days are flying by! We had a very social weekend and I felt like I wasn’t quite as friendly as I should have been because I was so tired.
Sleep – I’ve been trying to walk on days that I can, and I started a bedtime routine this week. My bedtime routine is to: take my pills, brush my teeth, then take a warm shower before I [...]
Hello all! It’s time for a pregnancy update! Have you all noticed that the pregnancy updates have been coming just a little bit later each time? I feel like I’m getting further along in the pregnancy and less inclined to do extra things. Can anyone relate?

How I feel/slept
I’m feeling the drive to get the nursery done! I’ve been searching Craigslist for awhile for a white bookcase to put in the nursery, but we are getting down to the wire now (I feel at least). [...]

How I feel/slept
Sleep – I’ve been waking up early again. So I’ve been running on less sleep. This week has also been the first week that pregnancy has really slowed me down.
Last Sunday (Easter) I felt a lot of Braxton Hicks and Round Ligament pain. I overexerted myself [...]
Hello all! It’s time for a pregnancy update! Thanks so much for your kind comments every week! Even though this post is a couple of days late, I’m going to share about how week 27 of pregnancy went!
How I feel/slept
Sleep – This week has been weird. I went camping for two nights and three days, and I also stayed with my family in Branson for a couple of nights. I went to bed late, but still got a decent amount of sleep.
I can’t believe I had enough energy for all that I did camping – took a 2 hour [...]
Hi! So glad to see you here. I'm a soon-to-be mom, wife and a work-at-home piano teacher and tutor. I know I'm weird, but I love to menu plan, organize, set goals, DIY and enjoy life with my amazing husband - Matt Pool!
