30 Weeks

 
The big 3-0!!
 
How far along? 30 Weeks
Maternity clothes? Dresses or looser fitting shirts can be either- most everything else is maternity.
Sleep? Pretty good lately- I think it has something to do with being so exhausted that I can’t keep my eyes open even if I try! I usually get up for the bathroom a few times a night and Aspen gets up at least once too.  
Best moment in the last 3 weeks? Feeling her move so much has been great. I was even able to get a video looking down at my stomach and you can see it moving around like a rollercoaster! Passed my glucose test!
Miss anything? Laying on the floor to play with Aspen, or even being able to sit on the floor comfortably to play with her.
Movement? Yes, she’s a very active little girl, especially when I’m sitting at my desk trying to focus! ;)
Food cravings? Goodcents sandwiches, fruit, anything cold- same as last time but adding in my dads homemade salsa!
Anything making you queasy/sick? My prenatals some nights
Gender? GIRL! We are so excited to welcome another little princess into our family.
Labor Signs? Nope- OFFICIALLYscheduled for the 1st of November. We have to be there EARLY Friday morning and the c-section is scheduled for 8:00.
Symptoms? A few more random aches and pains, tiredness but other than that feeling pretty good.
Belly button in or out? Almost all the way flat.
Wedding rings on or off? On- getting to the point where it’s tough to take them off sometimes in the morning for my shower so we’ll see.
Happy or moody? Both- I may have almost started crying the other day b/c I was thinking about only having 9 more weeks with Aspen as my only baby and at the same time being so excited to meet our new little princess!
Looking forward to? Fall and football!! Flying out to Philly to go wedding dress shopping for one of my best friends next weekend and of course getting to meet this little girl SOON!
Daddy moment?   As he’s taken over more for me in the evenings with Aspen, seeing their bond grow. I literally stood at the window and watched them play together outside and my heart felt like it was about to explode.
Big Sister moment? She’s getting so excited to meet her baby sister. She keeps telling us “after Halloween is when she’s coming”. Then we talked about weeks, months- timeframes and she now says “2 more months mommy”. She’s started calling me mom more and more and I’m not sure I like it- as compared to mommy. Makes her seem so grown up. She sings “Rock a bye baby” to her sister in my tummy- sweetest thing ever and then she ends with “but we’ll NEVER put her in a tree, right mommy?” haha
