Easter and New Furniture!

I had a great Easter with my family! I went over and helped mom cook while Josh was at work. She forced me to make special deviled eggs this year. They were such a pain but turned out super cute! The day before we painted my belly like an Easter egg! It was so fun but Caden didn't make it easy on Grammy! He was rolling around like crazy! We are still on baby watch for my little brothers baby girl. They will be induced tomorrow and the whole family is just abuzz about travel plans etc!

We ordered new furniture because the first place simplybabyfurniture.com was super shady and giving us the run around! The new crib and dresser should be picked up by Wednesday and I'm thinking the changing table by the end of the week! My mom surprised us with an early baby shower gift on Friday, Caden's bedding set!! I love it and can't wait to put everything together! I have a lamp I need to paint and get a shade for as well. I found a super cute tin airplane at Hobby Lobby yesterday that I may have to get for his room.

30 (almost) Week Appointment

Yesterday I had an appointment with Dr. McKinney. Everything went really well! I am at plus 17 pounds in weight gain, BP was great and baby belly is measuring right where it should. It is so encouraging to be reassured that you're doing everything right! I'm not the perfect preggo by any means, but so far everything has been going perfect! I am kind of bummed that I haven't had an ultrasound, but since everything has checked out great I guess I don't need it. So I'm gonna just stop stressing about it and hope Caden stays a boy! Lol

We started our Child Birth Class on Monday evening. It went really well, but Josh and I were surprised we are the youngest couple in class!! We learned all about some pre term labor signs and also a few relaxation techniques. We will go to this class every Monday this month. The last class will be the hospital tour, which I am looking forward to the most.

Still waiting for Caden's furniture to arrive! It's making me crazy because I feel like I'm on pause getting his room ready. Hoping to have it within a week or so.

It's crazy how fast this pregnancy has flown by. I have really enjoyed every moment! Only 10 more, or less, weeks to go. I went to one of my preggo twin, Alexis', baby showers in Jacksonville this past weekend and had a great time. It really made me excited for my own. We had girl time and beach time Sunday!

Getting my hair done next weekend, it's been waaaay too long!! Doing some serious spring cleaning this weekend. There are a lot of distractions this month, so I know April is going to fly by as well!!!
