8month ~ 3d ultrasound of baby Alexandra

Heres another 3d ultrasound, we did it last week. Im 35 weeks which is 8 months, they said she is weighing in right now at 5lb 4 oz, and should possible gain another 1 1/2 - 2lbs in the next month (= ANOTHER 2LB !!! lol im hoping she does but dear god thats almost half of what she is now! i know i keep saying this but there really is NO MORE ROOM in my belly!!! (= i guess that why they say your skin stretches ALOT in the last month. Well i guess i will continue to keep rubbing coconut butter oil, day n night and praying for NO stretch marks (=

yawnnnn

tongue out!!

~~~smiles~~~

Heres a little clip of the ultrasound, check out her lips midway through the video!! not sure who she got those from??

Baby Shower was amazing!

We had the baby shower this past weekend, and it was alot of fun! It was Soooo nice to see everyone that came! Not having family here in San Diego i truelly felt so blessed to have all those friends come and celebrate with us, and my girlfriends that helped with the shower were amazing! I still feel like i cant thank everyone enough for the gifts they brought to just helping out this month. Now that all the guests are gone and the shower is over, last month of pregnancy ill take to relax (=  we started to put the nursery together and its almost done!!!
And with all the gifts from the shower, i think we just about have everything!!
I was lucky enough to have my girlfriends who have kids or taken care of kids go over what i will need and not. Its pretty overwhelming how much baby stuff there is and everything you have to know!! Although it seems funny to me since people have been having kids for millions of years all over the world without it all.

Jeff & I seem that we are both at 8 months!

Maybe its like the song " mo money mo problems" same with all of this, the more we have the ability to get, the more we sometimes complicate our lives. Either way if you dont let it drive you crazy, its all alot of fun.  ( Again thank you to every single one of you, for either help, advise and or beautiful gifts!!)

34 weeks n ready not to be pregnant anymore

By far I think the most common craving of pregnant women is not to be pregnant after 33 weeks!
Yes it's all a very cool surreal experience like no other, but let's be real- who likes not being comfortable ??? I mean there's no way around it!
The beginning was mostly feeling like your car sick all day and now the end feels like the car ran you over and is somehow sitting on your chest!! :)
So again where are these women that say they " loved being pregnant"???

well i suppose the second trimester wasn't to to bad, but still! Your limited to everything and you kinda just look like you grew a beer belly instead of a baby bump, so people look but don't want to ask. Yes your hormones and the constant fatigue seem to subside & you can actually sleep most
Of the night,
But who has fun not being able to eat and drink what you once could ( meaning sushi & wine) and not being able to fit into your fav jeans!
Now third trimester.... Mostly what they warn you about is true! And here is some stuff I found in this in one book that im reading, so I thought i would share lol

20 THINGS NO ONE TELLS YOU ABOUT PREGNANCY!!
1. No sushi
2. 24/7 morning sickness
3. 40 weeks (ten months) of pregnancy
4. No asprin
5. Dog nose (u smell EVERYTHING, & most of it makes a nauseas!!)
6. 'Glow' is actually sweat
7. Bigger boobs aren't always better when they feel like two cantaloupes resting on a watermelon
8. Heartburn
9. Ungodly constipation
10. CRC (cant remember crap)
11.Walking like a penguin ( cuz everything is pulling, big, & hurts)
12.Final erosion of personal identity
13. Pregnant women are hornier (is a lie!!!!) how can you be when every position feels like your playing twister in a fat suit!!
14. Difficulty Breathing
15. Difficulty Sleeping
16. No hot tubs
17. Spongelike water retention
18. Clumsiness
19. 'Due Date' is a figure of speech
20. ITS WORTH IT!!

But overall I wouldn't trade it for the world ;) here r some belly pics

Evening routines

This is what has come to replace my wine glass at night ! Instead of Pinot grigio, i now get to have tums, coco butter and vitamins at night!!!
