"Never Grow Up"

You're little hands wrapped around my finger

And, its so quiet in the world tonight

You're little eyelids flutter cause you're dreaming

So, I tuck you in

Turn on your favorite night light

To you, everythings funny

You got nothing to reget

I'd give all I have, honey

If you could stay like that

Oh, darling don't you ever grow up

Don't you ever grow up

Just stay this little

Oh darling don't you ever grow up

Don't you ever grow up

It could stay this simple

-Taylor Swift

Jake isn't even here yet, but when I heard this song I got so teary eyed. They say once you have kids time flies. I'm sure I'll be feeling this song once my little man gets here.

33 weeks!

Another week down, which means another week closer to meeting baby Jake! Woo! (45 days!)

I've been subbing in High school this week, which I was DREADING, but its actually been really fun. All the girls ask about my pregnancy; How far along I am, boy or girl, do I have a name, is it my first?- I never knew High school girls to be so interested! I also got to talk to one of my high school teachers, who is also having her first child! So fun- PLUS I get to have lunch with my dad!

I'm excited to be starting a 3 week sub job for the ERC after-school program! It will be fun working with the kids in my city M-Th! (http://www.erc.la/afterschool)

Taylor Swift's new Cd, Speak Now, came on out Tuesday! That girl can write!! If were a guy, I would definitely NOT want to get on her bad side, or else I"d expect a song to written about me...which might be pretty cool! I already have my favorite songs that I put on repeat! :) (If you haven't seen the music video for "mine," I would totally google it and watch it now!


What else is going on?? Halloween is coming up in a few short days..and, I'm not gonna lie, I'm so excited to eat some candy! I could easily eat a tremendous amount of mini kit-kats. Those and the taffy are my downfall.

Now on to baby news!!!

How far along? 33w4d

How big is baby? Size: OVER 17 inches Weight: 4lbs! Keep growing, Jake!!!

Maternity clothes? Pants are a must...but I've actually been taking out some non-maternity shirts and wearing them! Woo for more variety!

**Sneak peak of some Maternity pics Holly Leach took!

8 weeks, but who's counting??

Hey everyone!!

Things have been SO busy lately with work and life! I finally have a day for "me" so, of course, I'm updating my blog :)

I started taping "Bringing Home Baby" and I'm absolutely addicted to this show. Not gonna lie, it kinda freaks me out..but I can't stop watching. For those that don't know, it documents a couple from delivery to the first 36 hours of being home. So, I pretty much see the no sleep, feed/poop/sleep repeat of an infant, and usually women complaining about how much breastfeeding hurts. ah. At the end it shows the baby at 2 months...and everyone is still alive, the mom talks about how things are going much better..so that brings me hope.

Though I would throw this in...11w vs. 32w4d

How far along? 32w5d

Total weight gain/loss: Not like I would tell you, but I go to the dr again today, so we will see!!!!

How big is baby? Size: 17 inches Weight: 3.75lbs! He is growing!!!

Maternity clothes? Same as all my other posts...can wear some non-mat tops..but bottoms are a must!!

Sleep: Great!! (knocking on wood again)

Best moment this week: Hmm not sure yet!

Movement: We felt Jake hiccupping this morning. I've felt it before but Joel got today. So fun.

Food cravings: nothing. boo hoo.

Gender: Baby boy :)

Labor Signs: Nada!

Belly Button in or out? Innie!

Stretchmarks? Urgh. I found some more. MORE! Give me a break here. They look really bad. I'm ALMOST embarrassed to go to to the Dr. I'm sure he's seen worse.

How are you feeling? Feeling good, minus this dreadful cold that won't go away!

What I am looking forward to: Dr appointment today, the Birthday food fun on Sat with friends, and Danielle having her baby!

What I miss: You guys thinks I'm joking, but really..Diet coke. I am sooo glad I get to have a can or 2, but I would love to over-indulge in a whole pitcher while eating Mexican food.

Weekly Wisdom: Never expect, always hope.

Milestones: 8 more weeks!!!!!

December is coming!!!!

I put my itunes on shuffle...low and behold Nsync's Christmas music came on! (Don't hate, you know you secretly like their cd too!)

My feelings: AHH and YAY all at the same time! (Would that be YAHHH??)

I have ALWAYS loved Christmas time...the lights...music..presents..family time- plus my birthday is in December!!!! I cannot wait till Black friday, getting out all my Christmas decor, getting a Christmas tree and drinking a peppermint hot chocolate!!!!! Little did I know that Christmas 200
9 was the last Christmas as a family of 2! Crazy. I.cannot.wait. :)



I dragged Joel to the movies to see "Life as we know it" and it was soo worth it! Joel actually enjoyed himself too! I think I liked it because it involved a baby, a cute story line, a love story, and MAJOR eye candy! Definitely worth seeing!

I skipped week 30 because I was soo busy..but I'm back. I'm sure you all were wondering-ha! (like anyone reads this anyway, right?)

How far along? 31w0d
