Happy Halloween!

35 weeks and 5 days.  Less than 4 weeks til my little man arrives! 



Belly size: basketball
Baby size: melon
Weight gain: 6lbs
Energy: 0 %

Going onto the 9th month and I'm completely ready to pop this baby.  I couldn't be more ready.  Today's Halloween and we got a little festive.  The weather is bloody cold but that didn't stop our spirits. Our little Ava dressed up as Doc Mcstuffins and rocked it.  She enjoyed passing out the candy most of the time.  



Happy Halloween!

Very pregnant and back!

Did you miss me? 

32 weeks have passed and I'm about due!  Where have I been?  What have I been up to?  What am I doing?  How am I doing?  


I'm almost 33 weeks and I'm so ready for this baby to come out.  For those who didn't know, we are having a baby BOY!  Life couldn't be any sweeter and our perfect little family is almost complete!  The Hubbie is so over the moon and the family's excited.  This will be the first boy on my side, so my brothers and dad are totally pumped-- a BOY! 

How has my pregnancy been??
- it's so true what they say, every pregnancy is different.  Not horrible but I have my days.  He's much more active and perhaps because I have Ava now, I'm definitely more tired than usual.  Baby boy rolls and kicks so much that sometimes I feel like my insides are going to break apart.  Hormones are crazier than ever, must be the testosterone, yeah let's blame it on that.  
Other than that, I'm glowing and my hair and skin is amazing as ever.   I truly don't want to lose that part.  

Weight gain- so far 5lbs
My fashion- no maternity but thank goodness for leggings and maxi skirts. 
Cravings- it's so random.  Am I as healthy as my first pregnancy?  Let's say Dunkin donuts is making a killing with me daily.  Life is grand!  For sure, I'm easy going with all my calorie intake.  I want a big baby boy!  Bring on the snacks!
Belly size: ROUND and POPPING
Due date:  November 30 but scheduled c-section is November 26th (day before thanksgiving) so much to be thankful for!



As for Miss Ava...


She is a ham!  I couldn't be more proud of my little girl.  She amazes me so much each day with all her new discoveries.  She makes me smile every time I'm with her.  She is my life.  She is my joy!  

Ava started preschool a few weeks before turning two.  She is TWO!  Her birthday was so much fun!  She's into Doc Mcstuffin, still a Mickey lover and loves Mulan and Toy Story. 



She does not stop singing and talking.  I know she's gonna be a great sister.  She loves her baby dolls.  Ava is so sweet and kind.  Definitely full of giggles.  


So, throughout this pregnancy, I have been "becoming nee."  I cannot wait to start the next chapter with two bundle of joys in my life.  When i look back the last five years of my life, things have gotten so much better.  I cannot wait to hold my baby boy.  We picked Aiden to be his name.  

Aiden, we cannot wait to hold you and spoil you to pieces.  I hope you're ready my little butterball!  Mommy loves you.
