At 33 weeks I had my baby shower!
Loving: Taking baths! I had to all this week to help deal with my “issues” after I had a surgical procedure to remove those issues. Now I just do it because I love it. Almost every evening after dinner I hop in and spend a good 30 minutes dreaming and relaxing. It’s glorious. Makes me want to start sprucing up my master bathroom, since I’m not in there so much!
Hating: Not too much! After dealing with those “issues” from the end of last week to mid this week, I have a much better perspective on this pregnancy. God is good, my baby is healthy and thank God I’m not in pain like I was!
Weight Gain: (from beginning of pregnancy) 29 pounds. I gained 5 pounds over Christmas. My doctor did not scold me, thankfully. He said he couldn’t complain for my weight gain. My blood pressure was really good too. I have essentially been eating salads every time we go out to eat so I’m sure that has helped. Not eating candy or ice cream shakes from Chik fil A which are my downfall.
News: My baby shower was this Saturday, January 9th. What an amazing time. My sister Gaby, Robb’s sisters Lora and Amanda, and Robb’s sister in law Nina along with her sister Amy, put together the most amazing shower I have every been to. It was elegantly decorated with a rustic theme and accents of evergreen – not at all baby focused. It was absolutely beautiful. From the food to the decor to the crafts, it couldn’t have been closer to my taste. Seriously wonderful. They had a canvas that had a tree on it and guests were to put their thumb print and sign their name. They had a sand jar to pour different color sands in, which was special because that is what we did at our wedding ceremony. Robb, Noah, Sam and I each had different colors sands and we poured them in the same jar, signifying our family ties. I LOVE the sand jar for the baby.
