But I know after more time passes, I'll want to recall all of the details and I wanted to have them written out somewhere. This is going to be lengthy, so grab a drink.<div><br /></div><div>My due date was July 1. For the past 2ish months I had been have Braxton Hicks contractions occasionally. On June 22 I was having more Braxton Hicks, but they felt different. Stronger and just different. But they never got consistent or super strong. On the morning of June 23, I was having the same type of Braxton Hicks (so I thought). I was at work that day and by the afternoon, I felt like the contractions weren't going away, so I downloaded an app to start tracking them. They weren't going away, but they weren't consistent. They'd be 10-12 minutes apart for a while, then I wouldn't have another one for 20-30 minutes. So I wasn't sure that it was actually labor. And they felt different than with Finley. I went home around 4:00 pm that day and told Kevin I might be in labor, but I wasn't sure. The contractions were still happening, but weren't staying super consistent. </div><div><br /></div><div>By the time I was getting Finley ready for bed, the contractions were getting stronger and closer together. I got her to bed and then told my mom we wanted her to come (she was going to stay at the house with Finley when we went to the hospital). I didn't want to have to call her in the middle of the night, so around 7:30, I told her she should just come now, but didn't need to rush. She got to our house around 9:00 pm and when she got there I was SO ready to go to the hospital. The contractions had gotten much stronger over the past 1-1.5 hours.</div><div><br /></div><div>We got to the hospital by 10:00 and were in a triage room by 10:30. I was dilated to 4 and they wanted me to wait an hour and make sure I was progressing. When they checked me again an hour later I was at a 5 and in SO much pain from my contractions. They were 2-3 minutes apart and strong. So they were working on getting us a room, I had to do a Covid test, and start an IV because I wanted an epidural. The contractions were strong and close together, but I also had this horrible pelvic pain the entire time, so I had no relief between contractions. </div><div><br /></div><div>By the time we got in a room and I got my epidural it was about 2:15 am and I was dilated to 8. Epidurals are magic (for me anyway). My water broke around 3:30 am and the doctor came in and broke it the rest of the way. Since I had an epidural, it was hard for me to feel pressure, but one of the nurses came in and noticed that the baby's heart rate dipped a couple times and checked me....baby's head was right there, so it was time to push!</div><div><br /></div><div>The doctor came in and everyone was getting the room ready for me to push. However, her heart rate kept dropping, so the room filled with doctors and nurses. One nurse calmly told me that a NICU nurse would be in, just in case, but not to worry. The doctor told me a baby can handle the heart rate dipping for about three minutes. Luckily, hers would dip and come back up on it's own at this point so it wasn't a major rush, yet. But they knew we had to get her out quickly so it didn't become an issue. When it was time to push, they realized she was sunny side up (she was face up, instead of face down). I later learned that only 5 to 8 percent of babies are born this way. This added another complication.</div><div><br /></div><div>The doctors got forceps to help get her out as quickly as possible so her heart rate didn't stay low for too long. Luckily I tend to push my babies out fast, and before the doctor could even do an episiotomy (he had the scissors ready in his hand), I pushed her out (and got a third degree tear in the process).</div><div><br /></div><div>Once she was out, she was breathing good and totally fine. A huge relief for all of us. The room started to clear out and I got to enjoy skin to skin time with my new baby girl.</div><div><br /></div><div>She had so much dark hair and looked just like her older sister! We were so in love.</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhckVoQwzuLUKYCeUpS99Cj4MyMLxucILx7oChMkSOcjbGeyE_s_mEfLNdn5DlYLcdIWaZqBi0Qi6ND1eqcm2EFd3wVPWssr85sJFYHH5tH5fCb6ITUb9Csbi1aUxL2ZlGX_n7qNOhkW5Imb6LtiHvBzhhC5xcMDS1_8kxiy6mneO1koI8GUPW_osQm/s4032/IMG_2744.HEIC" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhckVoQwzuLUKYCeUpS99Cj4MyMLxucILx7oChMkSOcjbGeyE_s_mEfLNdn5DlYLcdIWaZqBi0Qi6ND1eqcm2EFd3wVPWssr85sJFYHH5tH5fCb6ITUb9Csbi1aUxL2ZlGX_n7qNOhkW5Imb6LtiHvBzhhC5xcMDS1_8kxiy6mneO1koI8GUPW_osQm/w480-h640/IMG_2744.HEIC" width="480" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4grAckXr6vYjQBbEtintX6unSAJCZB8X3f9J28n3E62kOVZ-1UCC8m7MNUda2_jixNrX9mLjsi87rUXPv7BtNaIbENhzTtSUTYmtyFTBoslJquj_4AD3-qtWwkQYSi3V_GgBsc_YtRQSxITW3GuKL2YHaSDIpf3631dQrQ95G9QIoiJHqMjZFtmfv/s4032/IMG_5702.HEIC" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4grAckXr6vYjQBbEtintX6unSAJCZB8X3f9J28n3E62kOVZ-1UCC8m7MNUda2_jixNrX9mLjsi87rUXPv7BtNaIbENhzTtSUTYmtyFTBoslJquj_4AD3-qtWwkQYSi3V_GgBsc_YtRQSxITW3GuKL2YHaSDIpf3631dQrQ95G9QIoiJHqMjZFtmfv/w480-h640/IMG_5702.HEIC" width="480" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQU9Mt8hRDht7zrJYRZsWr45iRTeDmQVWvZpMWIMoxtO5rco8gOhB14PYIvbl-t4HI8duBoF-r_7vFo2OazvhFwb70V3IpFVj9of4tF-vuLgGfq0FaF8oeQrrIbV5M3oUlo9P4KqfaRbA_hcTV90XBkgQs79kpC0XcCB76nsgKscuq42P70pzJcMCV/s4032/IMG_2752.HEIC" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQU9Mt8hRDht7zrJYRZsWr45iRTeDmQVWvZpMWIMoxtO5rco8gOhB14PYIvbl-t4HI8duBoF-r_7vFo2OazvhFwb70V3IpFVj9of4tF-vuLgGfq0FaF8oeQrrIbV5M3oUlo9P4KqfaRbA_hcTV90XBkgQs79kpC0XcCB76nsgKscuq42P70pzJcMCV/w480-h640/IMG_2752.HEIC" width="480" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-z8ENU3-ZsA5v81wnZt1QyKK-mpCPH1ygsaB-Vjmhw9LdJuh__XSjREysYCftXRvuXRZY6-hDOlOmbyhwCgUu8oTPnbPjQ9KnEIH9rmBFSTVtUX2LkwIbnwnkTz8c2_IoW5lShVx8uuCu_1fIO2eyaa_x5QND6qZZHTqZzOqU6sI2AobSSCba8pVE/s1800/626EA171-B57A-4AFF-B288-2C49A0908720.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1800" data-original-width="1440" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-z8ENU3-ZsA5v81wnZt1QyKK-mpCPH1ygsaB-Vjmhw9LdJuh__XSjREysYCftXRvuXRZY6-hDOlOmbyhwCgUu8oTPnbPjQ9KnEIH9rmBFSTVtUX2LkwIbnwnkTz8c2_IoW5lShVx8uuCu_1fIO2eyaa_x5QND6qZZHTqZzOqU6sI2AobSSCba8pVE/w512-h640/626EA171-B57A-4AFF-B288-2C49A0908720.jpg" width="512" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmO21rQ28QcD4Bqwn_jQNIz2MSx-bhF61qotyxnHR69NSa8shiF-7p2Xo0KmmFuXneqhJYU4GURTii0UOzL5SyrJ0Iq8nvff7l7l2UUeShpDwVpoy4wB2GA5VG8waYOO_A7U0etmJaML6YnqwXlhr6-YDfjGkayJTBFCZgK5uosu5KZiVee9cwLTSx/s4032/IMG_2768.HEIC" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmO21rQ28QcD4Bqwn_jQNIz2MSx-bhF61qotyxnHR69NSa8shiF-7p2Xo0KmmFuXneqhJYU4GURTii0UOzL5SyrJ0Iq8nvff7l7l2UUeShpDwVpoy4wB2GA5VG8waYOO_A7U0etmJaML6YnqwXlhr6-YDfjGkayJTBFCZgK5uosu5KZiVee9cwLTSx/w640-h480/IMG_2768.HEIC" width="640" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div>After we were transferred to our normal room and got settled, I realized that Palmer was SUPER hard to wake up enough to get her to eat. And she rarely cried. I mentioned this to the nurses and to family members in passing. We all just assumed she's a newborn who sleeps a lot. No big deal. This would eventually mean more to us later.</div><div><br /></div><div>We went home around Noon on the 25th. Finley got to meet her baby sister that afternoon and she was SO in love. We were home Saturday afternoon, Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday. She was still very hard to wake to eat. She never woke up crying to eat. Whether I tried nursing or bottle feeding, it was work to get her to wake up and eat. </div><div><br /></div><div>Early Tuesday morning, we noticed Palmer doing some weird grunting when she was breathing. Since this is our second baby, we know that babies are noisy and grunty. But this was different. It just seemed off. So we took some videos and sent them over to her doctor. Her doctor took a look and shared with another doctor in the office before calling us and suggesting we take her to the local Children's Hospital ER, just to have them look at her. While this was scary, in my mind I thought we'd be told "oh, it's normal newborn breathing stuff," or "she's got a cold, but she'll be fine." Something like that.</div><div><br /></div><div>When we got the ER and initially got checked in, they took her temperature and it was normal. We then got moved to a triage room and talked to the doctor back there to explain what was going on and show her the videos we had taken (because of course she wasn't doing the breathing thing at this time). They then took her temperature and she had a fever of 100.5. In babies that young, anything over 100.4 is cause for concern, so this triggered a series of tests. Swabs for Covid and RSV, chest x ray of her heart and lungs, blood cultures and an IV, and a spinal tap. </div><div><br /></div><div>And since she had this fever and had to have blood and spinal cultures, it meant she would be admitted and have to stay for 24-36 hours until they started getting results back. We were crushed. Our 4 day old baby was undergoing all of these tests, being poked a bunch of times, and was being admitted to the hospital. We got to stay with her during everything except her spinal tap. And she basically slept the entire time they were trying to get her blood work done. It took almost 1.5 hours to finally get the blood samples they needed and get an IV in. They had to call in a special team that used an ultrasound to get her IV line in. The doctors also told us she basically slept through the spinal tap and only cried after they were done and cleaning everything up. </div><div><br /></div><div>Once we sorta wrapped our minds around what was happening, we notified family and figured out a plan for Finley for the next couple of days. She was at my Mother-In-Law's that day and she was more than happy to keep her for us until we got home in a couple days.</div><div><br /></div><div>Once we got admitted and got to our room, we just had to wait until the next day to see what the blood cultures showed. We were told it could be nothing and it's just a virus that caused the fever, or it could be something more serious, which is why they do so many tests in babies so young. </div><div><br /></div><div>So the next morning, the doctor came to talk to us and told us that her blood cultures were showing a staph infection. They didn't know if it was MRSA or something else yet, so they started her on an antibiotic and would change it as needed once they knew exactly what they were dealing with. This also meant that our 24-36 hour stay was going to turn into 10+ days and I'll explain why. This infection was in her blood, so it needed to be treated with IV antibiotics for 10 days AFTER a negative culture. So once they started on the antibiotics, they would take blood cultures once a day for the next two days. Then if those came back negative and stayed negative (meaning the antibiotics were working and no more infection was growing in her blood), we could start the 10 day countdown. Luckily her cultures came back negative, so day two of our hospital stay started our countdown. Since she was so little, she couldn't go home on an IV, she'd have to stay in the hospital the entire time. She got antibiotics every eight hours for 10 days. Luckily, her fever went away within the first day and didn't come back. Her vitals were always good and she just kept getting better.</div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2ayH1Za_cfTOmSK9my40UhdjJeEJv44q7TUrNsemGsaEPRhAcu861t4o9kkY9NrMLEdqhvm6JfG1VyRkYWkFV1D-ZZ55MkrEafK-B4szx9uIOux-gOy1N_0J-RQmag1iDbxGhvesVymgx8EUOZs4mYK4icJ6-karqzHtajrLQUTreNyEMyR19L0vL/s3088/IMG_2819.HEIC" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3088" data-original-width="2316" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2ayH1Za_cfTOmSK9my40UhdjJeEJv44q7TUrNsemGsaEPRhAcu861t4o9kkY9NrMLEdqhvm6JfG1VyRkYWkFV1D-ZZ55MkrEafK-B4szx9uIOux-gOy1N_0J-RQmag1iDbxGhvesVymgx8EUOZs4mYK4icJ6-karqzHtajrLQUTreNyEMyR19L0vL/w480-h640/IMG_2819.HEIC" width="480" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTUwdKPweRyN5xdk7nHVdM7P7og47_Unr1bsrXej43F94S_4TaEs6TNxIngxeRFkfeIVu3mAK8U6YwevQ7RVfCemIXiaqwV-tSw5uSxHAlzEG87xy4xlVfVrciRehsLvhSUxtBwooRoXZZYW409Gc0iUe-H9XHnjntgJWThQKcWshD7QVMrHDcCkt7/s4032/IMG_2821.HEIC" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTUwdKPweRyN5xdk7nHVdM7P7og47_Unr1bsrXej43F94S_4TaEs6TNxIngxeRFkfeIVu3mAK8U6YwevQ7RVfCemIXiaqwV-tSw5uSxHAlzEG87xy4xlVfVrciRehsLvhSUxtBwooRoXZZYW409Gc0iUe-H9XHnjntgJWThQKcWshD7QVMrHDcCkt7/w480-h640/IMG_2821.HEIC" width="480" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtNRrECuFhoXUZAiowCYyLQWHRI57yvWSNyYdW4eqf7fiGQKGVNa9NgrRirnEWX_sNNdjdYv3tnZtIMEhBvBTVSTUb2iEkTt3GzW6rpw9GscIr_xtYSD8vSbOmRO13KVfPwUcMybALN4R_eQ_VtSOoQ936sS7fODJhFORjWpCLYkbLNWhd2xFMVyjX/s4032/IMG_2827.HEIC" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtNRrECuFhoXUZAiowCYyLQWHRI57yvWSNyYdW4eqf7fiGQKGVNa9NgrRirnEWX_sNNdjdYv3tnZtIMEhBvBTVSTUb2iEkTt3GzW6rpw9GscIr_xtYSD8vSbOmRO13KVfPwUcMybALN4R_eQ_VtSOoQ936sS7fODJhFORjWpCLYkbLNWhd2xFMVyjX/w480-h640/IMG_2827.HEIC" width="480" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqsbo18UbEwoPzraV4yrSikp7R241nlR97-7gWbcLYF-VkbimCOmU8RpZtwYFPhXioaiyNadPAOJUOV_n7ibRii43mZdg3czrB_cST4n-yKrxhhHQHi4DVLAJ0BSma1V6Txz0ribj1mzqPS-Mo_6YGPz6lC4k2iNKaRDsPB5JYeokLg2vFbrQyZdan/s4032/67866408998__6BF9D0DA-0C30-46BB-BE90-00FD58ECBC07.heic" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqsbo18UbEwoPzraV4yrSikp7R241nlR97-7gWbcLYF-VkbimCOmU8RpZtwYFPhXioaiyNadPAOJUOV_n7ibRii43mZdg3czrB_cST4n-yKrxhhHQHi4DVLAJ0BSma1V6Txz0ribj1mzqPS-Mo_6YGPz6lC4k2iNKaRDsPB5JYeokLg2vFbrQyZdan/w480-h640/67866408998__6BF9D0DA-0C30-46BB-BE90-00FD58ECBC07.heic" width="480" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioqDeHQ0fEGkd7kG1bj72Ei8_FQTSU15PumK2IVlode4f9Vv_JK1e82S0WS7vb7giZLbsn1lnoDIS9OO1ayr4lNFmSMXsYX9dV_4GBpsVRo_wCdU2uNR8qcP_WM8KZMtRbBKdVkicq6CgkETsfqiODRk5Y5Y_qZcA8pMHtRR1ib8-hhRo2mTtVDnCR/s4032/IMG_2897.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioqDeHQ0fEGkd7kG1bj72Ei8_FQTSU15PumK2IVlode4f9Vv_JK1e82S0WS7vb7giZLbsn1lnoDIS9OO1ayr4lNFmSMXsYX9dV_4GBpsVRo_wCdU2uNR8qcP_WM8KZMtRbBKdVkicq6CgkETsfqiODRk5Y5Y_qZcA8pMHtRR1ib8-hhRo2mTtVDnCR/w480-h640/IMG_2897.jpg" width="480" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div>After a few days we learned the infection was not MRSA, thankfully. It was a different type of staph infection so they changed the antibiotics to the most effective for what she had. After a couple of days on the antibiotics, she was a totally different baby. I couldn't believe it. She was actually opening her eyes and staying awake/alert a little bit. I know she was still a newborn and they sleep a lot, but it seriously was a different baby. She actually woke up and ate. It wasn't a ton of work to wake her up to eat. We realized that the "sleepy newborn" was actually a lethargic baby, but we didn't realize it. Sleeping through all the needle pokes in the ER was not normal. It's scary to think how sick she was and we didn't even know it. Had she not done that breathing thing (which she didn't really ever do again after we got to the ER), I don't know how long it would have been before we knew anything was wrong.</div><div><br /></div><div>Once we knew we had a long stay ahead of us, Kevin and I had to decide what to do, since we had Finley to think about too. We didn't both need to be at the hospital at the same time, and we wanted to try and make things somewhat normal at home for Finley. We decided to take turns spending the night at home and at the hospital. So one of us would stay at the hospital with Palmer, and one would stay at home with Finley. (Once we got admitted to the hospital I decided I was exclusively pumping and bottle feeding, because that was what was going to work best for us, so feeding wasn't an issue if I wasn't there. I was pumping more than enough to keep there when I was gone).</div><div><br /></div><div>It was so hard trying to explain to Finley why her baby sister was home for a couple days and then had to be gone again. My heart was literally broken when my girls couldn't be together and my family was separated for 12 days/11 nights. Thankfully the hospital staff let Finley come visit for a couple of hours about halfway through Palmer's stay, which helped Finley and I. </div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjQ3hLvv0PJpgu00KVxt3Sk6OmVmbD0TWYlHiZsiwl0j2Di6BcDBkbeQR_lMlcqjCQA36dVdou0CjFhIG1oEsXPHtc-wD2I4qBIqT0RgiiCu79ULM21rU_u_yixR-skITrp4WYVld0IlzNz8Kia81FiJylkVh70qjtlUBdMtbUDFi5hZ3j42DogFku/s4032/IMG_2863.HEIC" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjQ3hLvv0PJpgu00KVxt3Sk6OmVmbD0TWYlHiZsiwl0j2Di6BcDBkbeQR_lMlcqjCQA36dVdou0CjFhIG1oEsXPHtc-wD2I4qBIqT0RgiiCu79ULM21rU_u_yixR-skITrp4WYVld0IlzNz8Kia81FiJylkVh70qjtlUBdMtbUDFi5hZ3j42DogFku/w480-h640/IMG_2863.HEIC" width="480" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div>Thankfully we never had any setbacks and on day 10, they gave her a special dose of antibiotics that morning so that we could leave in the morning and not stay the full day. Finally taking my baby home for good was the best feeling ever.

I had always heard how great it is there, but hoped I would never experience it for myself. We also couldn't have gotten through this without our family and friends. We are so thankful for people going to our house and bringing us stuff, taking Admiral for us, watering plants, dropping off meals, sending gift cards for coffee, food, and gas, sending fun stuff for Finley to do, etc. We are surrounded by the best people and we will never forget it. </div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgA7nU9QPlemGGbxD-cfyMlRj6IJwkxFnBz0WsA0Vt69bL0pIf_i-7TMnbdNy8v0khwL_jBFRw7n59c5Vp5lIW8K5eidYvuXOj6EDA2EUK1mVOeMXugLi7-1cYRIxFUXCrqTS0K_FJ0Ya_UzQlMgwjWIKrk0Ab8_fgQ1HTMXeSImxmvarE9rd9h062f/s4032/IMG_2924.HEIC" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgA7nU9QPlemGGbxD-cfyMlRj6IJwkxFnBz0WsA0Vt69bL0pIf_i-7TMnbdNy8v0khwL_jBFRw7n59c5Vp5lIW8K5eidYvuXOj6EDA2EUK1mVOeMXugLi7-1cYRIxFUXCrqTS0K_FJ0Ya_UzQlMgwjWIKrk0Ab8_fgQ1HTMXeSImxmvarE9rd9h062f/w480-h640/IMG_2924.HEIC" width="480" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLsORtsMvPQRlrN9oXnTXTEJPLrmHCvhe3aVkxAQOcrOE5_o-XYrhbbsxghSYqGY9teyHaamqEL5z95V_iYL2DSfECUm1N4vLACfob_DboLPbnCZYLF85r4d3witCMefGo1v9l_QdYyQzvQUeH-m0AQIbDfkE2cQs8XTLXB52x78Lxjbg_e2UZhRgJ/s4032/IMG_5759.heic" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLsORtsMvPQRlrN9oXnTXTEJPLrmHCvhe3aVkxAQOcrOE5_o-XYrhbbsxghSYqGY9teyHaamqEL5z95V_iYL2DSfECUm1N4vLACfob_DboLPbnCZYLF85r4d3witCMefGo1v9l_QdYyQzvQUeH-m0AQIbDfkE2cQs8XTLXB52x78Lxjbg_e2UZhRgJ/w480-h640/IMG_5759.heic" width="480" /></a></div><br /><div><br /></div>Erickahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00911414738982017683noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5640796208145694751.post-18729879069407476092021-02-26T12:12:00.002-05:002021-02-26T12:13:10.241-05:00Easy Garage Door Makeover<div>The sun is shining and temps are nearing 40 degrees here in Michigan.

Most of these we have in our house, but a few are on my wishlist to add soon. I'd classify my decorating style as Modern Farmhouse, so these lights tend to fall in that category. I also decorate on a budget, so all of these lights are very affordable. </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtWrZRXnfUZpgHMxJiwSX8n6-7xrrMF6b1OIvEM_r9Os94WZg_NaKPIJExvk9_UCuBezjaKVQiVGZ6KJCi5T-BBaUGsLNvH99J8thQnePKhP8m12H856jQyx-jfEOizq09T9jprhMNX2U/s940/Modern+Farmhouse+Light+Fixtures+from+Amazon.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="788" data-original-width="940" height="536" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtWrZRXnfUZpgHMxJiwSX8n6-7xrrMF6b1OIvEM_r9Os94WZg_NaKPIJExvk9_UCuBezjaKVQiVGZ6KJCi5T-BBaUGsLNvH99J8thQnePKhP8m12H856jQyx-jfEOizq09T9jprhMNX2U/w640-h536/Modern+Farmhouse+Light+Fixtures+from+Amazon.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071DJ4RYK/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B071DJ4RYK&linkCode=as2&tag=erickamarie87-20&linkId=a78f05de49660b582453f1edcc3e0b9c">Star Light</a> - I wanted to do a fun light in Finley's room and since she has a Star Wars theme, I thought this star light would be perfect.

We have a dusk to dawn motion light over our garage right now and I like the functionality, but hate the look. I spray painted our current one black (it was gold), but I can't wait to eventually update it with this pretty one.<br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Have you ever ordered lights from Amazon?

And if you forget to cover something one time, it's a mess. This plastic, vented cover is the perfect solution!

I was skeptical, but bought them to try and get the diaper smell out of Finley's room. Even though we have a diaper trash that is really nice, there is always just a "smell" when you walk in her room. I just set this bag on a shelf in her room and literally within a few hours, no more smell! They aren't scented, they just absorb odors. My MIL has one at her house for the playroom because she was having the same problem and it got rid of the smell there too. I also put one in our workout room since our Peloton shoes are in there and it doesn't smell like sweaty feet anymore.

This shower curtain is mildew resistant, which again, I was skeptical. But I've had it for 6+ months and not a trace of mildew! And it has metal rings at the top so it doesn't rip.

<div style="text-align: left;">
What better day to share Finley's Star Wars room than May 4th? If you aren't a Star Wars nerd, today is Star Wars day: May the Fourth be with you. Moving on :) Finley's room isn't much different than it was <a href="https://erickamarie87.blogspot.com/2018/11/a-girly-star-wars-nursery.html">at our old house</a>. We used all of the same decor but her room is laid out a little differently. To start, here's what her room looked like when we bought the house:</div>

The room was the same color blue as painters tape. Literally. It was not going to work for us Here's what we did:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
+ painted walls, trim, and closet doors </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

All of the before photos have the old owner's furniture in them. Apparently I was too excited when we got the keys and didn't take any photos of the empty room. Oops.<br />

What I still want to do:</div>
<div>
+ some touch up paint </div>
<div>
+ paint bedroom door black</div>
<div>
+ new carpet</div>
<div>
+ black metal headboard (I think there's too much cream going on in there right now)</div>
<div>
+ add some wall sconces or lamps on our nighstands</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I love how much brighter the room is! By adding the closet organizers, not only did we get more hanging space, we were also able to get rid of our dressers, so we don't have a bunch of big furniture in the room, which makes it feel bigger. A couple of side-by-sides for comparison:<br />

So much pink. Sponge paint. Flower border. Blue blinds. Everything had to go.<br />
<br />
Here's what we did:<br />
- new floors (hired out)<br />
- painted walls and trim<br />
- new toilet<br />
- new sink<br />
- new fixtures (faucet, toilet paper holder, and towel holder)<br />
- painted cabinets (hired out)<br />
- new hardware & hinges on cabinets<br />
- epoxy countertops<br />
- new mirror<br />
- new light fixture<br />
<br />
And here's what it looks like now:<br />

I LOVE this way this bathroom turned out, but I have a few things I still want to do:<br />
- paint the door black<br />
- touch up paint on window trim<br />
- new blinds<br />
- figure out decor for long wall<br />
<br />
And of course, some before & after comparisons:<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
This room has probably had the least "love" in the house, but I still wanted to share what we've done so far. This room is in the back of our house and has sliders that lead to our deck and backyard. It also has a wood burning fireplace (that we haven't used yet). To start, here's what it looked like when we bought the house (these are listing photos, so it's the previous owner's furniture/decor):<br />

Because of the entryway from the dining room, sliders, and fireplace, there aren't a lot of options for furniture. We don't use this room a ton right now, but I can see us using it for playing games, doing puzzles, etc. We had our Christmas tree in here since it had more room that our living room. Here's what it currently looks like:<br />

</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Here's what we've done so far:</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
+ hired contractor to rip out carpet and put in new floors</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
+ painted walls, trim, and crown molding</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
+ spray painted fireplace surround to get rid of the gold</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
+ hung curtain rod, curtains, added some decor</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Like I said, we haven't done a whole lot in here, but it's definitely an improvement from where it was. I still have several things I want to do:</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
+ paint built-ins white</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
+ whitewash brick </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
+ add more/different decor</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
+ make little bar cart area in corner (where ottoman is currently)<br />
<br />
I would also LOVE to make the opening between this room and the dining room bigger. Removing that entire wall would be ideal, so it could be one big open space from the family room to dining room to kitchen. Kevin's not in to that idea (I think he's just ready to be done with projects for a while), so I need to work on him a little.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
And because I love before + afters so much, here are some side-by-sides:<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
Long time no see! I share a lot on Instagram, but I miss blogging and sharing more details here. I thought I'd start 2020 blog posts with a house update. I shared what <a href="http://erickamarie87.blogspot.com/2019/09/our-new-house.html">our house looked like</a> when we bought it back in August (we moved in September). We've done a TON of work since then. Still have more to do, but it's getting there. I love house projects, so I don't think it will ever really be "done." (I know Kevin will LOVE hearing that haha). I'm going to try to share one room every week or two on here. What it looked like before, what we've done, and what we still have left to do. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
Let's start with the living room. Here's what it looked like when we bought it:</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
This is our front living room, and the room we spend the most time in. It has our TV and our "comfy" furniture. We also have a family room, but that's used less often. (I'll share that room soon.) This living room isn't big, and it's also where our front door is, so I wanted to make a little entry area, which was challenging with a small space. Finley also has her little chair and lots of toys and books in this room, so we had to make it work for all of us. </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
Here's what we did:</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
+ Hired flooring contractor to remove old floors and install vinyl plank flooring.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
+ Painted all of the walls and trim (with help from family).</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
+ My dad replaced all of the outlets and light switches (they were all painted over).</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
+ New furniture (all sources listed at the end of this post).<br />
+ New double curtain rod and curtains (and raised it).</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
This room is so much brighter with the new paint on the walls and trim! I love it. It's small, but cozy, and perfect for us.<br />
<br />
Since we don't have a coat closet by the front door, I added a runner rug and some coat hooks. I wanted guests to have a place to leave their shoes and hang coats or bags. We enter through the garage, so this is basically used when people come over.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Here's what I still want to do in this room:</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
+ Spray paint the vent covers so they match the trim color - I plan to do this in the spring so I can do it outside.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
+ Add more to the gallery wall. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
+ New pillow covers. These are the pillows that came with our couch. They are fine, but don't really fit my style. I like the idea of new pillow covers so I can take them off and wash them (because a toddler + a dog = messes).<br />
+ New TV stand<br />
+ I'd love to add some board & batten to the front entry wall and do some more coat hooks<br />
+ paint front door<br />
+ get another lamp<br />
<br />
I love seeing before & afters, so just for fun, here's a couple of side-by-side comparisons:<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
I've always liked getting family pictures done in the past, and now that Finley is here, I'll be sure to do them every year. This year, we had Ashley from <a href="http://www.saturdaymorningmacarons.com/?fbclid=IwAR2upU5kC-GAaD5rmfeau-gErwbwx1B6GOk7ka1Q2QYoTu0K2uu3td0buwg">Saturday Morning Macarons</a> take our photos and she was AWESOME. If you're in the West Michigan area and would like to get some photos, you should definitely reach out to <a href="http://www.saturdaymorningmacarons.com/?fbclid=IwAR2upU5kC-GAaD5rmfeau-gErwbwx1B6GOk7ka1Q2QYoTu0K2uu3td0buwg">Ashley</a>. We didn't bring Admiral with us this year, because we weren't sure if we'd be able to wrangle an (almost) one-year-old and a dog. There are so many that I love. I'm going to have such a hard time deciding which ones to print and hang!</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
I still can't believe this girl is one whole year old already. It's true, time goes by way too fast. She started walking three days before her first birthday and now we rarely ever see her crawl. She's still a great sleeper and takes two naps. Now drinks whole milk and eats all of the things. Girl LOVES to eat. We gave her shrimp for the first time the other night and she ate seven of them (along with the rest of her dinner). I can't wait to see how much she grows and changes over the next year, but I'd really like it if time would slow down!</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
We celebrated Finley's first birthday last weekend (on her actual birthday) and it was so wonderful! Our theme was "Our Little Pumpkin is Turning One" and I went all out with all things fall for her party. I figured I better do all the things I want until she starts having an opinion. We had the party at our house (only three weeks after we moved in - we are nuts) and the weather cooperated so people could be inside or outside. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
We had veggies & dip, a chili bar, cornbread muffins, and hot dogs and mac n cheese for the kiddos. My sister-in-law did some fall flavored mini cupcakes (pumpkin, apple, and s'mores), and I ordered Finley's smash cake from <a href="https://www.facebook.com/The-Cake-Girl-191675714794308/">The Cake Girl</a>. Everything turned out great and Finley is definitely <strike>spoiled</strike> loved. Thanks to everyone who helped make the party a success and to everyone who came out to celebrate Finley's first birthday with us! And thanks to my sister for taking pics all day for us!<br />

If you follow me on social you probably know that we sold our current house and bought a new one! We are only moving about 10 minutes from our current house, but to a different school district and a bigger house with a bigger yard. We are SO excited to move next week and have been working hard on the new house to make it ours. Today I'm sharing all of the "before" photos and our plans for the house. (Note: most of these are listing photos - none of the furniture is ours - we haven't moved in yet!) Follow along on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/erickamarie87/">Instagram</a> to stay up to date on our progress!<br />

Front/Exterior: No plans right now. In the future, we'd like to update the siding, shutter, and door colors, but no rush to do that. I'll probably spend some time on the flowers next year, but not worrying about anything this fall. Just typical maintenance.</div>

Back Yard: Move fire pit to corner. In the future we will tear down the current shed (not in great shape) and add a new one, add a landscaped area around the fire pit, add flowers, power wash and stain the deck.</div>

All of the walls, trim, and doors on the main floor are getting painted. We (aka my dad) also changed out almost all of the outlets and switches because most of them had been painted over or were tan instead of white. We also have a lot of new light fixtures to install. We've already done a TON of work, which you can see in my saved highlights on my <a href="https://www.instagram.com/erickamarie87/">Instagram</a>, but still have lots to do! I'll plan to share some of the in progress pics soon.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
It's been quite a while since I've posted on this blog. But life has been busy. Having a nine month old that's on the move is a full-time job. On top of that, we decided to sell our house and move. We're staying in the area, but looking for something with a little more space and a better layout. Since we're saying goodbye to this house in a couple of months, I thought I'd share a little before and after of when we bought it, to when we sold it. Everyone loves a good before and after, right?</div>

(That's right, we still haven't found a house - keep your fingers crossed for us!)</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
After we found out we were pregnant, Kevin said he wanted to have a Star Wars themed nursery. Even if it was a girl. And since I've done every room in our house the way I want, I agreed to let him pick the theme. Once we found out it was a girl, I still agreed to the Star Wars theme, as I long as I could make it "girly." I love the way it came together and I hope Finley enjoys it for years to come!<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
Finley is five weeks old and I'm just getting around to writing about her birth. But I guess that's what happens when you have a newborn; everything else gets put on hold. And that's ok.<br />
<br />
When I was pregnant, I liked reading other people's birth stories because it gave me an idea of what to expect (sort of) when my time came. Every story is different, so I wanted to share ours. And I want to write down the details while they are still somewhat fresh in my mind so I can look back on it later.<br />
<br />
On Tuesday, October 2, I had my 39 week doctor appointment (due date was October 7). I hadn't had any contractions up to that point and my pregnancy had been uneventful, which was good. My doctor doesn't "check" anything until you get to 40 weeks, or unless you have a reason to, which I didn't. I had it in my mind that our baby was going to be late. We had finally said we were ready for her to come, so I knew that meant she'd be late. That was our luck.<br />
<br />
Wednesday was just another day. Thursday morning rolled around and while I was getting ready for work, I felt stomach pains like I had to go to the bathroom. Didn't think anything of it. I got ready and went to work. By about 9:00 am at work, I realized these pains felt like period cramps, but they weren't really going away. They would come and go pretty consistently, so I decided to start tracking them. I didn't know if they were actually contractions, but for the next couple of hours, they were happening every 8-10 minutes. I texted Kevin and told him I think I might be in labor, but I knew it wasn't anything serious yet because they weren't painful, just annoying cramps. At about 2:00 pm, I realized that I couldn't really sit still during a contraction anymore. Still not really painful, just uncomfortable. I left work around 4:00 and headed home. At this point the contractions were about 6-8 minutes apart.<br />
<br />
When Kevin got home, I told him we needed to eat dinner, because if this was the real deal, I knew I couldn't eat once we got to the hospital. And being in labor AND hangry was not going to be a good combination for either of us haha. So we got some dinner and watched a show. The contractions were getting stronger to the point where I had to stand and bend over during them. Not unbearable, but getting painful. I decided to take a shower, which felt SO good. I could have stayed in there forever. But the contractions were about 4 minutes apart at this point, so Kevin said we needed to go the hospital.<br />
<br />
We got to the hospital at about 8:30 pm and I was only dilated to 3. Better than nothing, but not much for having contractions for 12 hours. They had me walk around for an hour and after that I was dilated to 4 and the contractions had gotten much stronger over the past couple of hours. I couldn't talk through them anymore. They admitted me to a labor and delivery room and got me all set. I decided to get an epidural because the contractions were pretty painful at this point (I actually threw up during one) and I didn't know how long I'd be in labor. I wanted to be able to have enough energy to push when the time came. I got an epidural around 11:00 pm and that was the best thing ever. Life saver. I didn't feel a thing. After the epidural was in, they checked and I was at a 6. I kept progressing through the night to an 8, then a 9, and finally a 10. Finley wasn't quite low enough yet and my water still hadn't broke, so they called my doctor in around 6:30 am to break my water to see if that would speed things up. It didn't. She was still a little high, so they had me do "practice pushes" for about a half hour to move her in to position. At this point, my epidural had wore off a little on one side, so I could feel the contractions in just one spot on my stomach - so weird.<br />

After she was in position, they got the room all ready so I could start pushing her out. I did one push, and on the second push, out she came! It happened so fast. She was instantly screaming (so happy to hear that sound) and they put her on my chest for skin to skin. They stitched me up (second degree tear, which they originally thought was third or fourth degree, but luckily it wasn't) and got me all set while I held our baby girl.<br />

Finley Marie Long<br />
October 5, 2018<br />
9:18 am<br />
7lbs 8oz<br />
21.5 inches<br />
<br />
We stayed in the hospital for two nights (as first time parents, we wanted all the help we could get) and went home Sunday morning. I'm so grateful that my pregnancy and labor and delivery were all so smooth, and our baby girl is healthy. Also, the labor and delivery nurses are angels on earth. Seriously. Every nurse we had was amazing.<br />
<br />
Kevin was off work for two weeks with me, which was so helpful. We are enjoying our time as a family of four (have to include Admiral) and are loving our beautiful baby girl!</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
I never took a 39 week bump photo, because I planned on taking one at 40 weeks, but we didn't make it! Finley Marie Long arrived at 9:18 am on October 5, 2018. Two days early. We are so in love and can't believe she's been here a month already! She has dark hair like her mom, but most of daddy's facial features :)</div>

Believe it or not, these were taken in the backyard of a friend of hers. The setting was gorgeous and the light was perfect. If you are in the West Michigan area, be sure to check out <a href="https://www.instagram.com/shutter_cat_photography/">ShutterCat Photography</a> - Kristin is so great to work with! Here are some of my favorites from our session:</div>

<b>How many weeks</b>: 37</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Symptoms</b>: Swollen feet are happening pretty much daily now. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Baby Bump</b>: Big. And I think maybe she dropped a little? When I look at the pics compared to a few weeks ago, I think she's a little lower. Not sure how my belly button isn't sticking out yet, but it's still an innie. Barely.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Food Cravings/Aversions</b>: Nothing.</div>

<b>What else is going on</b>: I've attended two weddings (one more this weekend) and we had our last baby shower last weekend. Baby girl has SO MUCH STUFF. She is definitely loved, that's for sure. My mom and sister threw a great shower for us and I think we are pretty much set. We are picking up a few things this weekend with gift cards and money we received, but otherwise, we have everything we need (or so we think). The nursery is almost done. Hoping to get it all finished up this weekend. Hospital bags are packed. Car seat is in the car. So close!<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
I'm a little behind on updates, since I'll be 35 weeks on Sunday, but oh well!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<b>How many weeks</b>: 34</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Symptoms</b>: Uncomfortable pretty much sums it up. I feel like she's either crushing my bladder so I have to pee every 10 minutes, or crushing my lungs so I can't breath. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Baby Bump</b>: Large and in charge.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Food Cravings/Aversions</b>: Nada. I just think I use being pregnant as an excuse to eat more and eat less healthy than normal. But no cravings.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>What else is going on</b>: We had our first baby showers last week and it was so great! We had one at work on Friday and then one with Kevin's family and some of my friends on Sunday. We were blessed that so many family and friends came to celebrate (and spoil) Finley. I can't wait to spend some time organizing everything in the nursery this weekend.<br />

Can't believe we are SO close to meeting our baby girl! It is getting real!<br />
<br />
Just for comparison, here are weeks 12-22, and then weeks 24-34:<br />

<b><br /></b>
<b><br /></b>
<b>How many weeks</b>: 32</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Symptoms</b>: Pretty much the same as the last update. I would just say I'm uncomfortable. But that's to be expected at this point. I think I may have felt my first Braxton-Hicks contractions. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Baby Bump</b>: I don't know how it's possible for it to get any bigger, but it just keeps growing! I can't believe my belly button has popped out yet.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Food Cravings/Aversions</b>: Still nothing.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>What else is going on</b>: My sister got married! That was a long day that ended with swollen feet and a tired body, but totally worth it. We are going to another wedding this weekend and then three in September. I feel like I'll be leaving earlier with each one, but excited to go celebrate with our friends.<br />
We went to our birthing class/hospital tour a couple weeks ago, which was beneficial. We've got a breastfeeding class next week and then a CPR class a couple weeks after that.<br />
We went to a Detroit Tigers game last weekend and got to enjoy it from a suite - all the food and drinks we wanted! It was a perfect day for a game. I don't know how I would have felt sitting in a regular seat at 32 weeks pregnant, so I was thankful we were in a suite where we could sit out in the shade, or go in to the air conditioned suite if we got hot (which we didn't).<br />
Our first baby shower is next weekend and I'm so excited! Can't wait to start getting the nursery finished and organizing her closet.<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
I'm actually 31 weeks in these photos, but last week was crazy (my sister got married!!!), so I didn't have time to get a pic...so let's just pretend :)<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXaud-HGgilxCGJyMkmiYwWmRJHegCwhAtruPf22o2qJf8LPNPYsY4GsMnKt1TgDjPSto-OYOBR3QX25JJcxn3DxiE9Mm-Tdt54KYcrBNvkegbq0e_FgzRrh7vnediDvfNw_EedB2BF_U/s1600/IMG_9123.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="750" data-original-width="561" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXaud-HGgilxCGJyMkmiYwWmRJHegCwhAtruPf22o2qJf8LPNPYsY4GsMnKt1TgDjPSto-OYOBR3QX25JJcxn3DxiE9Mm-Tdt54KYcrBNvkegbq0e_FgzRrh7vnediDvfNw_EedB2BF_U/s640/IMG_9123.JPG" width="478" /></a></div>
<br />
<b>How many weeks</b>: 30 </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Symptoms</b>: If I'm being honest? Sleep sucks - it's getting harder to get comfortable and I get stuffed up a lot at night, so then I can't breath, which is annoying. I toss and turn a lot (sorry Kevin). I can't sit or stand in one position for a long time, so going to the movies is not fun any more. My back pretty much hurts all the time. BUT I hate to complain, because I know that is all part of being pregnant and it's going to be over before I know it. And this pregnancy has been pretty smooth so far. I know there are people that have a much more difficult time than me, so I hate to be negative.<br />
On the plus side, baby girl moves around like crazy now! Pretty much any time I'm sitting or laying for 10+ minutes, she starts moving. I can now feel her whole body moving around in there, not just kicks. Love that feeling.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Baby Bump</b>: Oh, that bump. It gets bigger by the day.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Food Cravings/Aversions</b>: Nothing.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>What else is going on</b>:<br />
Took the bump out for my sister's bachelorette party. Stayed up until 2:00 am. Not sure how I did it while completely sober, but we had a good time :)<br />
<br />
Got most of the wall decor for the nursery. Just waiting to get the rest of the furniture before I put anything on the walls. I have a feeling baby stuff is going to be in full force over the next couple of months.<br />
<br />
Can't believe we are just over two months away from having her here!<br />

<b>How many weeks</b>: 28 - officially in the third trimester. Whoa.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Symptoms</b>: Sleep is getting rougher, but can't complain because overall I feel pretty great still!<br />
I have to roll out of bed or off the couch because my stomach muscles are pretty much gone.<br />
Feeling her kick all the time now. And kicks/movement are definitely getting stronger too.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Baby Bump</b>: Getting bigger every day!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Food Cravings/Aversions</b>: Nope</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>What else is going on</b>: Passed my glucose test - yay!<br />
We put the crib together, so the nursery is slowly coming together. Hoping to share our inspo for it soon.<br />
Admiral is starting to learn to cuddle with the bump, and not climb on top of it. He also likes snuggling with my pregnancy pillow (pics below).<br />
Getting excited for the nursery to come together and then to meet this little girl in less than three months!<br />
