Mothers day dinner at my parents house. Delicious bbq with these lovely ladies! I'm so grateful for my mom and amazing sisters, I have learned so much from them.

After the last couple of days of working inside, cleaning and organizing MJ needed a day outside to enjoy this beautiful sunshine. She is so patient with me (majority of the time) and let me color my hair that was desperately needed while she picked out a movie to watch; Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer haha.
It's a bit harder these days to sit on the floor and play with Mary, my body is so done being pregnant. But regardless we enjoyed our afternoon together and I got a good little work out running around after her. I'm itching to get out to the pool and relax, get some sun on my pasty skin.

It's amazing how much better you feel after you get your hair done!

My favorite little girl, she is just amazing. I love her sweet personality and sass.

I never knew there could be so much joy in potty training when it finally begins to click. I've realized that you just can't push your little one into being potty trained if you want it to be a good experience for both parent and child. I'm hoping that MJ will be fully potty trained by the time her baby brother arrives in the next couple of months. Between old Easter candy and a huge bag of dum dum suckers the bribing and rewarding is certainly helping with the process. Potty celebratory dances and calling her Granny and Daddy afterwards are just the icing on top for her. Cheers to this big girl! First the binky goodbye's, then the toddler bed and now this whoop whoop!

30 weeks

Gender: Boy

Maternity Clothes: I can fit in most of my shirts, but wear leggings, maxi skirt, maternity pants/shorts.

Stretch Marks: Still only from Mary still so far 

Movement: oh yes...I feel like his personal punching and kicking bag sometimes. Much more than I remember with MJ. I have a feeling he might be a handful compared to his big sis.

Weight gain/loss: 2 pounds down from pre prego weight. Gained a total of 8 pounds so far.

Cravings: Thanks to MJ's easter basket I've been snacking on her starburst jelly beans..so good! With the warmer weather I'm craving some good bbq. 

Sleep: ughh kinda off and on. Hips hurt and belly is getting bigger so it actually takes a little work to flip over to my other side and I forgot about the constant bathroom breaks while trying to sleep.

Missing anything?: Getting down on the floor easily (and up) playing with MJ.

Best moment this week: Purchasing baby boy his car seat and bedding finally. And reaching the 30 week mark, crazy how fast this pregnancy has gone. Only 10 weeks to go, it'll be here in a blink of an eye for me.

Belly button in or out:  it always stays in.

Wedding ring on or off: On

Happy or Moody: mmm a little moody perhaps due to lack of sleep. I've been spoiled with Mary being an amazing sleeper. Body is preparing for those 3 am feedings! 

Looking forward to: Getting everything organized and deep cleaned...slowly... It's pretty pathetic how often I have to take breaks and sit/stretch while doing normal household cleaning done.
