27 Week Pregnancy Update

How far along? 27 weeks!

Total weight gain: aggghhhh too much! haha second pregnancy weight is no joke!

Maternity clothes? yup! All the time

Stretch marks? Just the one from last time

Best moment this week: uhhh...the weekend cause Preston is home

Miss anything? Not being sick, being able to sleep on my back or stomach! Working out, feeling good enough to want to get out of the house, feeling good enough to play with Jaxson.

Movement: All the time! Mostly if I'm laying down

Food cravings: This whole pregnancy I've been craving salty foods, and earlier on, spicy food. Compared to being pregnancy with Jaxson, I crave sweet things a lot more this time.

Anything making you queasy or sick: Ugh sick all the time! Don't throw up as much anymore at least but I'm nauseous ALL. THE. TIME! I thought it'd be better by now cause it wasn't as bad in the beginning as it was with Jaxson and with Jaxson I was feeling better by now! Wish I would just get over feeling nauseous 24/7!

Gender: It's a girl! So crazy! I've been in all boy mode for the past two years it's weird to think I'm gonna have a baby girl in less than three months! And man baby girl names are hard to choose! Still need to find one!

Labor signs: Nope

Symptoms: Nauseous all the time, still throwing up some days, legs cramps constantly, and sleeping terribly!

Belly button in or out?: Out

Wedding rings on or off? : On

Happy or moody most of the time: eh, feeling kinda moody lately haha just sick of being sick!

Looking forward to: Christmas!! Going to Bakersfield, my little sister Jenna getting home from her mission December 15th! and not being pregnant anymore! Meeting my baby girl :) 

Baby #2!

Surprise!!! It's not the flu its baby #2!

And it's a girl! She'll be here Febraury 1st! I'm super ready to be done puking and feeling sick all day everyday, now we just need a name! :)

4 year Anniversary picture and Family pics

 I just LOVE photography and photo traditions. I'm so glad I started this Anniversary photo tradition on my and Preston's first Anniversary. It's something I look forward to doing every year and I know that Preston does too. We started by holding our wedding photo on our first anniversary and every year since we hold the picture from the year before. It's a cool way to see how we will grow old together and I love having a reason to take a family picture every year. We put up 8x10's of each picture underneath the big frame on a wall in our house and we call it the Anniversary Wall. It gets better every year! 

Its so fun to have pictures with Jaxson now too and I kind of wish I would have thought to have him in the picture frame picture with us. But then again I kind of love that it will always be a picture tradition for just me and Preston to commemorate the wonderful years of our marriage! 

I can't believe I've been married to this wonderful, amazing, supportive man for 4 years now! It's gone by so fast but then again it seems like its been longer since I feel like my life truly began when we got married. I will always cherish these pictures, I hope we can continue this tradition for many many more years, if not all of them!
