Now You're My Whole Life

So, we have made it over the 32 week mark! Monday was 8 months preggers for me! That seems unreal. Now, it's getting fast and there's still SO much to do! How Far Along: 32 weeks & 3 Days     {My husband is ridiculously HOT...wow!} Sleep: Can't complain! I am supposed to be on "summer" schedule, but it's not happening. I have found myself up around 5:45 because Lyla doesn't go on "summer". She likes to stick her cold nose right under my wrists and lift them up while I am sleeping. Once I let her out, she is good for the rest of the morning. However, I lie in bed with my eyes open and pray, think about what needs to be done, and enjoy feeling Vann wiggle around! {I love this one! Thanks for the book Dr. Scales!} Best Moment This Week: Maternity pictures were AWESOME on Thursday.  I seriously LOVED them.    My iMac stopped working last week, and I was BUMMED ( keep reading for the silver lining )....

I would say Thank God it's Friday, but every day this week has been a great one! I am thankful for Friday though because Ryno will be home soon and we can enjoy the weekend together! ~ONE~ I am in love (read obsessed) with the photo session Ryan, Vann, and I had last night with Michele ! I was praying, texting Mom and Ryan to pray, and trying not to stress out because all day the weather report was storms, heavy winds, and cloud to ground lightning beginning at 4! Thankfully, it held out for our entire session, and I really could not ask for more! Here's a special sneak peek! ~TWO~ Pumped doesn't even explain how excited I am about Father's Day! Ryan has an awesome gift coming his way. He thinks he already knows what it is, but I am thinking he will be surprised when he opens it up! He is going to be the best Daddy. Blessed I tell ya...I am blessed! ~THREE~ One more weekend until my brother and his sweet Alexis get married! The details of ...

On Saturday, Ryan was continuing to finish up the dock and I was reading after our Childbirth Preparation Class. It was an absolutely gorgeous day and of course f loode d with the GA heat. Lyla loves the pond and entertains herself for hours on end. You'd think she would just relax after an hour or so, but she was made to swim.  She was pouncing around the edge of the pond keeping us entertained and then got super quiet. I looked up and made the comment, " I have no idea how we keep finding ticks on Lyla" because she was crouched down low. When I called out her name and asked her why she was being silly, she popped her head up and peeked out of the tall grass at us. I didn't think much about it because she likes to "sneak up" on frogs or fish, so we figured that's what she was being dramatic over.  Then, she cautiously walked over to an open part of the neighboring field and just stood there. She started acting like she was hacking up her lung...

How Far Along: 31 weeks & 2 Days   Sleep: It's so much better this week! I have definitely gotten my money's worth out of the Boppy Total Body Pillow. I wake up when Ryan heads to work and feel so refreshed which is a nice change from before.   Best Moment This Week: Hmm! I loved our birthing class once again. It really has eased any fears that I had before. It feels nice to have done a lot of research, reading, and have it confirmed by an experienced teacher. I loved Friday! I had an awesome morning with Carrie and got my hair done. I could seriously fall asleep in her chair. She is blessed with a gift. Then, I met Mom for lunch at Cream & Shuga. It has become one of my favorites. When I got home the Dossinator was really wanting to play golf, so I asked if he wanted some company in the golf cart. He was in, so I got to enjoy watching him play, spending time with each other, and catching a nice rain shower around hole 15. Dinner afterwards wa...

How Far Along: 30 weeks & 2 Days Sleep: So, last post I shared that sleep was just uncomfortable...I found a solution! After I met with a new 24 Day Challenger on Thursday, I called Ryan to let him know I was going to Target and there may be a pricey purchase on the bank statement. He knew how bad my sleep had been and said ok! I am the good sleeper out of the both us...now nearly 8 months pregnant...I toss and turn, make weird noises, and often wake at 4 am for an hour or so. Target had just what I was looking for (don't they always...sometimes TOO much) and I scooped it right up. I was happy that a lady in front of me in the checkout line confirmed on how this contraption was a life-saver for her daughter. Needless to say, I am SOLD! It is a God-send for sure! Welcome to the bedroom Boppy Total Body Pillow. I have slept great since Thursday night . . . even if it does take up a LOT of space. Little Vann can kick all he wants! Best Moment This Week: I would...
