Baby Shower!

I love baby shower's!

So here are a few pictures from the baby shower on 7/13.. I know a little late but it was a blast! Big thanks to my mom and sister who put it all together and my coworkers/family/friends who helped set up and clean up and of course everyone that came and showed my baby some love!!

The theme was Rubber Ducky, I loved it! My mom is so creative and she is such a hustler when getting things done!

Cupcakes were Yummy!!

Sweet Rubber Ducky cake with little duckies made out of fondant!

Fruit, chips and Dips. I dropped the ball and didn't take any pictures of the food. But we served sandwiches and cold veggie pasta and salad!

Gifts for the games

Shoes, shoes... shoes... Mom and Baby G have TOO many shoes... no TOO many is not enough!

Again, I am so thankful for everything we got! We also had another baby shower from Daddy G's side, I will have to do a mini post of that one since I forgot my camera and only had my phone to live off of!

Thank you to all!

Side note: So my husbe (Husband to be) is going to be out of town training next week and the last week of July, does this make me nervous; yes. I know we will be OK and doubtful baby will be THIS early but that last week of July makes me really nervous. Hopefully baby G will wait for her daddy to be there!

 

 

30 weeks!/ 3D sono

So much has gone on since my last post and it hasn't been a week. I know I am behind with my weekly bump update but with good reason. I had a doctor's appt Friday so I wanted to see where I was with everything and we had a 3D/4D sono appt that afternoon so I wanted to update with that too!

Yay for 30 weeks!!!

How far along? 30 weeks!

Total weight gain: 19 total, my original calculations were off but I am still in good standing according to the Dr.

Maternity clothes?  Mostly bigger dresses, long dresses because normal sizes fit me too small, but yes for bottoms being purely maternity.

Stretch marks?            Yes :/

Sleep:   Lots of it, lots of naps too

Best moment this week:       Our 3D sono, my baby is precious!! Maybe I have a bias but I just can't wait to meet her!

Miss Anything?              My heels... normal shoes. 

Movement:             Oh yes I can feel her stretching in there!

Food cravings:   Grilled Pineapples!

Symptoms:        NO more heartburn, it was just a one time thing but I do try to be extra careful with what I eat and when I eat it.

Anything making you queasy or sick:     Nothing lately

Labor Signs:    Braxton Hicks contractions

Happy or Moody most of the time:   More Happy than moody! But this Texas heat is pushing it

Looking forward to:   Baby shower's are coming soon and we took Maternity pictures this past weekend so I am excited to see what those look like!

 

This is my baby girl! We got SOOOO many pictures and a DVD and CD with more pictures, I am so in Love. I really can't wait to meet her!!!! This place was amazing and I would rec commend it to any one wanting to do a 3D/4D but not pay too much. Baby girl was covering her face most of the time, as you can see, and at one point she even put her feet on her face. But she did give us a few good full face pictures. I think she is going to favor Daddy. Also the tech said she has a BUNCH of hair... oh boy, guess those bows will come in handy!!

So in love with my baby girl, my parents and my younger brother got to experience this with us. They were so excited! She has big cheeks!! It will be interesting to see how she actually compares to these pictures!

Until next time!
