My boys

I just love to capture these smiles right before we head to church!

33 Weeks

Pregnancy Highlights

How Far: 33 Weeks

Size of Baby: She is a little over 4 lbs and is about 17 inches in length. She is about the size of a heft of a pineapple!

Total Weight Gain: 7 lbs

Gender: Girl! Peyton Ryleigh

Maternity Clothes: I am still able to wear my band with my normal pants, but I do wear maternity pants every now and then. I wear dresses mostly on the weekend.

Movement: This girl likes to move all day and all night!

Food Cravings: Anything cold and salads because it is starting to get really HOT already this summer

What I Miss: My patience and energy! I feel like since I am out in the sun more my skin is getting better!

Sleep: Sleep has been rough lately. I feel like my belly is really heavy when I lay on my side, even with a body pillow!

Best "Big Brother" Moment: Trenton LOVES to rub my belly all the time and talk to Peyton! He is really excited she is almost here.  

What I am looking forward to: Getting nursery together (Very Very behind)

Doctor Appointment: Went well. I had to sit in the office for 2 hours because my dr. was delivering a baby. Heartbeat sounded perfect, weight is right in line and my platelet count is up. We scheduled my c-section for 7/19/12 @ 7:30 AM!

Front yard fun

We have really made the most of the first days of summer. Our backyard is a total wreck. It needs to be mowed, hot tub has just been removed, we need to lay grass, hang up the new back door and paint. With all that being said I choose to play in the front yard because my OCD does not allow me to enjoy life in such chaos.

We decided that we were going to pull out the slip n slide and baby pool and just let the kids enjoy themselves. I love summer and love going to the pool, but sometimes it is hard with both boys by myself. The is the next best thing and as long as they have fun that is all that matters!

My little fishy likes to dive head first into the pool!

Sweet Tayven wasn’t sure about the little pool at first. Probably because her friend was splashing around like a crazy person!

BFF’s!

Trenton & Scott acting silly on the slip n slide!

Trace & Tayven are so sweet together. Any time they see each other they run over and give a hug/kiss. It’s so cute that they have developed a sweet little friendship so early in life.

I told Trace to sit close to Tayven for a picture and this is what I got!

I think Tayven looks so precious in this picture!

A kiss goodnight!

Brush, brush, brush

So every morning no matter how early I get up, no matter how much I do the night before we cannot manage to get out the door in a timely manner. To speed things up I always give the boys their toothbrushes in the kitchen. This is usually what they do while I am putting on their shoes, grabbing bags and ready to walk out the door. Some days seem easier than others, but brushing the boys teeth in the kitchen seems to expedite our morning a bit!

Blue Claws Team Party

Well Trenton’s first T-Ball season with League City Little League has come to an end. We had an undefeated season and made a lot of great friends! We had his team party at CiCi’s. It was short and sweet. Trenton got his trophy, a Blue Claws baseball bat and his name plate! We can’t wait to get started again in the fall or maybe Spring…we will see how things go!

Getting his trophy!

He was so proud! His name plate will be proudly displayed on his new bed that he will be getting a in a few weeks.

Go Blue Claws!
