Starting my 28th week of pregnancy!!!!

Starting my 28th week of Pregnancy! Baby Zoe is growing more and more! I am so excited and can not wait to meet the baby of our dreams!

My bestfriend was so nice and gave me a bunch of clothes that her precious 9 month baby girl Zaelynn wore when she was in her first few months! Yesterday I finally had time and went through them. I hung some up in the closet and then put some in the 2 of the 3 drawer chest we have! It is so amazing how many cute outfits we have now! Thanks Zerique! Now between what she gave us and what my excited and wondeful husband has been collecting.... we will only need to start buying 6 months and up clothing:-)

It's funny, I was putting them into piles and thought... "I have no idea... when some of these items are suppose to be worn!" Joey and I said someone will have to come teach us what is for what or maybe we will just make are own rules! I guess that is how parenting goes anyways! The best way to learn is just to dive in and see what works for you! Either way, Baby Zoe will look so adorable!!!!

Baby Zoe's to be room and 1/2 Marathon Pictures

Pictures from the Rock N Roll Marathon!

Baby Zoe's Bedroom theme:-)

We are so excited that we decided the bedroom theme for Baby Zoe will be Winne the Pooh. There is a picture from Babiesrus that is shown to the right. We have been really blessed to already have the crib set complete, thanks to some family and great deals at stores! We can not wait to set it all up over Christmas Break:-)

I will post pictures when that happens!

Tomorrow I will give you a sneak peek at my belly for the start of my 28th preggy week!!!! Pretty soon we will meet the baby of our dreams!!!!

1/2 MARATHON FINISH

To start off my 27th week of pregnancy, our little family ran and finished the Rock N Roll 1/2 Marathon Sunday Nov. 14th! It was awesome and a little emotional at some parts! To think... I am going to be a mommy! I was running/walking with my precious cargo in my tummy! Joey finished in 2:10 which is a PR for him and then he came back for me at mile 12! We finished together! All three of us! The sad thing is... we have no pictures... I had my camera in the morning on the door... and then guess what??? I moved it off the door and forgot it:-) We will just have to wait for the official marathon pictures!

Joey had some of his family run the half as well! His mom and his cousin! How awesome to experience this with relatives! I am so excited to see our pictures and to mark this down as our first little family experience! We will have so many more! Until then... Baby Zoe, stay tucked in... warm, comfortable, healthy, and growing! We will see you and meet you soon!!!! Love mommy!

3RD TRIMESTER!!!!!

Yay, I am finally in the the 3rd TRIMESTER of MY PREGNANCY!!!! I am so excited!

We have a doctor appointment on Thursday! Almost a mommy..... what will I do???? We are almost parents.....

Fun DAYS at school and last weeks update!

Starting my 25th weeks October 31!

I think my belly looks cute with a shirt over it! But hubby requests pictures of the belly:-)

Nerd Day at my school I teach at! I don't have my glasses on in this one:-) I had to put the suspenders on the pockets on the back of my panst because the actualy pant waist was way too high! It looked to weird, so I accomodated!

TWIN day at my school! This is another teacher that is preggy and due the same time as me! Cute belly twins!!! I told her, "No fair, you have a 3 inch advantage!"

Starting my 26th week of pregnancy and starting to get excited and anxious! Baby Zoe moves more and more each day! She likes to use my bladder as a kicking and punching bag! She has now started those same movements below my ribs! It's a really cool and exciting feeling! Sometimes I just want to stop and touch my belly so that I can feel it the entire time she is doing it... but then I remember, I have to keep teaching! lol! I do not think the students would mind, but I would probably not be a very effective teacher if I did that... lol! So I make sure to stop what I am doing outside of school to feel my baby move when ever she does! It's such an awesome feeling and also reassuring to know that the miracle inside my tummy is all these movements inside my belly!

Joey read that pretty soon the movement will not be so much because there will not be so much room for baby Zoe to move... I think I told him I don't care if she jabs me and kicks me harder... I want it all!

We are very excited! I do not see the light at the end of the tunnel yet, but know starting the third trimester tomorrow, means it is soon to come!

I have a lot of things to do but am not sure where to start or what it is exactly I should be doing??? Anyone have suggestions or an idea of some kind of countdown or check list of things to have ready or done by the time I am in the last month????

I will be back to post a new belly picture for starting the third trimester... I think I grew a little more from last week :-)
