We are ALMOST there

That statement holds true for many things! We are ALMOST there to having our baby! I can not believe I am almost 35 weeks...the pic below is 34 weeks! I just keep growing and growing and Sadie just keeps moving and moving more and more everyday! I can definitely tell she is in the same position but just readjusting herself for comfort. She is also dropping...my belly is not nearly as high as it used to be, and I can feel her pushing on my lower abdomen A LOT more!

My only complaint right now is that my sleep is being broken up about 2 times a night by my bathroom breaks!! I guess this is just preperation for breastfeeing when Sadie comes. Everything else is AWESOME.

We had a doctor's appt on Friday. Sadie's heartbeat was very strong. The doctor said my belly was measuring a little small...he said he only told me this and said this so we can do another ultrasound. We will go to the Doctor on the 23rd and I will be just over 36 weeks and we will get to see Sadie for the last time in utero...after that we will see her beautiful face and little fingers and little toes in our arms!

We are also almost there with the nursery! Sadie has an ALMOST full closet...

And an ALMOST fully decorated nursery...

Basically all we have left to do is put some things on the wall....finish filling the closet...and organizing additional blankets and clothes and other little goodies!! So exciting!

Nursery Progress

So today we had a special and unexpected delivery from UPS. Sadie's bedding arrived...4 days earlier than they said! So, Gil was very excited and we matched the paint and now Sadie has a purple nursery!!!! She has doors on her closet!!! Gil was just so busy today! I love the color and can't wait to put the border up around the top and put the blinds and valances up. Then we can do the furniture and everything! SO FREAKIN EXCITED!!!

Bump Pics

So Karrey gave Sadie a cute nickname...the Beach Bump! I love it! I haven't posted pics in a bit, but they are below! Sadie and I are growing SOOO much and SOOO fast! I can't believe we will have our little girl in 7 weeks or so! That is just absolutely amazing to me!

We are definitely growing! I also know this because Sadie is losing space in there and I can feel her stretching! It is very odd. There are times where she just karate kicks me, but there are times where she is stretching in 2 different directions at the same time! She loves to eat...just like her mommy and daddy! She gets very excited right after I eat! It's so cool! I had mexican for dinner last night and I swear she transformed into a mexican jumping bean when I finished! It was so funny!

Sadie's room is coming along as you see in the post below, but we have ordered the bedding set and can't wait for it to arrive! The set comes with a comforter, bumper, blanket, bed skirt, fitted sheet, and decorative pillow. So PERFECT! Once we receive the set we can color match the purple for the paint, then we just paint, put the furniture together, wash her clothes, organize and accesorize a bit and we will be all ready for baby girl! Here is a picture of Sadie's Bedding set! Not beachy like we originally planned, but super cute and perfect for our baby! It will be just precious!

I just can NOT believe we only have 7 weeks left! It is just sooo crazy to me! Our second shower (first one was on January 24th) will be on February 20th and then my niece (who's 18th Birthday is that day) is going to do our maternity pictures! So much exciting stuff happening and just so little time to blog about it!

I will update more...even though this was a LONG update...again soon. I will post pics from the 1st shower, hopefully before we have the 2nd shower, and I will keep updating about the Nursery progress! P.S. The Doctor says Sadie is awesome and healthy which is a great plus as well!! We have another appointment next week and then should be getting another ultrasound at 36 weeks...then we will be just 4 weeks out...HOLY CRAP!!!!!

Nursery progress

So Gil has been hard at work on Sadie's Nursery! He's made some great progress! We have ALL of her furniture, we are just waiting for the bed set to arrive to match the paint to paint the room and then we can get everything in and get REALLY set up for her!

It's amazing how time is just flying by and there is so much being done! It is soo awesome!

Orange Room...YUCK!!Primer Room...MUCH BETTER!!Pretty closet! Almost ready to fill it, but we gotta hang the doors first!

I am so proud of my hubby! He is just doing awesome in the nursery for our little Sadie girl!!

Slacking

I have quite a few updates to give...but I am just quite tired and don't feel like it. Maybe over the weekend I will!

For now I just work and sleep! I eat a bit too! Gotta nurture my little girl!

Less than 10 weeks to go!

Here's the 30 week picture...Sadie must be growing a ton in there, because I am really growing from the outside!! The update says she is about 15.7" long from head to heal and like 3 pounds or so. I stil feel great...doing prenatal yoga is awesome! I've been working a lot so the tiredness is starting to catch up with me every so often...but then I sleep and I am good to go.

Sadie moves around a TON! Sometimes it gets a little painful...not sure if she doesn't have as much space as she would like, or if she thinks she has more than she does...whatever it is...OUCH! She also gets the hiccups about once a day. Gil thinks it is SOOO funny when she has them...I just feel bad for our little girl!

Our Dr's appt was fun on Thursday. Sadie's heartbeat is nice and strong! We also asked about cord blood banking and what our Dr. thought about it...he recommends it if it is financially doable. We are weighing our options!



Thursday was a VERY busy day for us! We went to Babies R Us and finished up our registry... we even got to park in the "stork parking" spaces!!! See Below :)

While we were there we added a bunch of stuff and we also bought Sadie's furniture! SOOO excited! We should be able to pick it up in 7-14 days. That should be just enough time to get the room painted and all ready to go! Look for a nursery update soon! Don't want to overload all at once! All in all everything is fabulous and moving in the right direction!!

28 weeks and counting!

We have 12 weeks to go!! Seems so close yet so far away! We have so much to do! We haven't even started the nursery! I think I just need to go to Lowe's and buy some primer so Gil can just start painting the room! We basically know everything we want for the nursery and what it ideally should look like, but we just need to put that plan in to action.

I also have some updated pictures! These holidays have been really crazy and really busy, so I haven't been posting pics! I have been taking them, so here they are!

For the holidays we all had a great day! Sadie got some cute outfits and she bought a cute outfit to wear just for her daddy! See......

For Christmas day we went over to Ft. Lauderdale and saw my Step-dad and Step bro and his family. We had breakfast and Sadie REALLY liked french toast. Then we went to a family friend's house, the Conforti's. They knew me when my mom was pregnant with me about the same as Sadie now! Amazing how time flies! 25 years and still doing Christmas together! We had a really fun and tiresome day, but it was awesome!

I am happy the holidays are almost over. I will have much more time to get everything together and really prepare for Sadie's arrival! Can't wait to actually meet our little girl!
