Kaylin's Baby Shower

The baby shower was on Sunday afternoon. First of all, we were so so blessed with so many wonderful gifts for Miss Kaylin!!!

It was a beautiful shower pinks and grays with some elephants for our little "peanut" and lots of family and friends were able to make it.

Lots of yummy food and deserts and beautiful cupcakes made by "Aunt GiGi" and her friend Cambry. 

We received so many gifts! 

Target seems to have some issues with their new registry system so we got several duplicate items. But we were able to return them and get several other items we still needed.

Thanks to everyone for coming, helping with the shower, and all the wonderful gifts. We cannot wait for Miss Kaylin to be here and start using everything!!

32 Week Bump Update

How far along: 32 Weeks. That's 8 months people. I can hardly believe it!
Weight gain: 24 pounds 
Baby Size: Size of a Large Jicima. I've eaten Jicima but never seen the whole fruit so I have no idea how big it is. But baby girl is approx 17"long and 3.5 lbs. 
Stretch Marks: Well I thought I didn't have any, I've tried so hard to keep lotion and stretch mark cream on my belly but noticed a few days ago I have a few stretch marks on my hips and thighs so I'm now using lotion and cream on those religiously hopefully they'll go away!!
Maternity Clothes: Nope just bought a few size Large shirts(on sale at Wet Seal!)
Symtoms: Tired a lot. And Hungry, can be irritable but usually still have a pretty good mood. 
Food cravings: Cinnamon Bagels and Cinnamon Cheerios. Slurpees from 7/11 and unfortunately there is a 7/11 just down the street from our house. 
Movement: All the time!
Belly Button: All the way out
Rings: Still on, no swelling!
Gender: Girl!
Name Ideas:Kaylin Elise
What I miss: Being more active. Having more energy. Not having a belly in the way. 
What I'm looking forward to: Baby shower next weekend!! And then getting her nursery ready. I went to a Breastfeeding class last week that was very informative. And Justin and I went to a childbirth class today. It was long but we learned a lot and the lady teaching it is very open to natural birth, moving around during labor ect so that was great. Just one more class, on finding alternatives to labor pain, so that should be interesting and hopefully good too! Bought a pattern and ordered fabric to make her crib bedding! Can't wait!
