33 weeks pregnant

i am now officially 33 weeks pregnant and still feel good. the days definitely get tougher and i get a lot more aches and pains as the days go on. nothing that is out of the ordinary though. i can tell i am carrying around some extra weight because the bottoms of my feel get very very sore. luckily i have such a great husband who rubs them at night.

brady is doing great. he is moving constantly and his little feet are always kicking me in my right side. it is still so strange to see his little body move around in my belly. we haven't done much for his room yet because we have our friend fran with us for a couple of weeks. actually we still don't have a crib so we couldn't get the room ready anyways.

i will start to post belly photos more frequently because i am sure i still have a lot of growing to do.

my first baby shower!!!

yesterday the three lovely ladies below threw me such a great baby shower!! i felt so special all day long. we had a potluck with tons of delicious food and very yummy desserts. it was so much fun because even some of the guys came :-)

the decorations were so cute and we even played two games. i got so many nice things from everyone...thank you!! what a fun day we had. lots of food, fun and laughs. can you believe we did it all during our lunch hour!!

some of the delicious food and guests

...and the chicken salad at the shower was fabulous....can't you tell :-)

fun game...you had to create as many words as possible out of brady's full name. i thought i would have an advantage because of all the crossword puzzles i do....didn't happen!








these are just some of the cute gifts i got.....

yes....33 weeks pregnant, can you tell?

29 weeks!!

i wanted to share some pics we took tonight so everyone can see my growing belly....especially daddy since he is in Boston. i has been about 1 month since my last pregnancy post and i feel like my belly has definitely grown. things are still going great and i am feeling good. i have some minor hot sweaty flashes but that's pretty much it. i am sure those will get worse when the HEAT arrives.

scott and i started lamaze class and it is a lot of fun. it is definitely helping us prepare for little brady's arrival. we also had our hospital tour last week so we now know where to go when it's time. going to all these labor things made me realize that scott has a huge responsibility on delivery day.....lots and lots of things to remember and do. i know he will be great but i am kind of glad all i have to do is breath and push :-)

that's about it for now. we have a dr. appt on tuesday so if we find out anything worth sharing i will be sure to do so.

3 year anniversary

here are a few photos from our 3 year anniversary weekend. we went down to santa monica for the day. it was a nice day because it wasn't too hot. i can't believe we have been married for 3 years already....it truly has been the best 3 years of my life. scott's goal is to make it to 50 years so we only have 47 more to go :-)






we saw this cool tree that scott wanted to take pictures of...why not slap your pregnant wife in front to make it that much better!!

we definitely had a lot of fun that day. we are going to celebrate this weekend too since i wasn't feeling well on our actual anniversary. the traditional gift for your 3 year anniversary is leather...scott did great and got me this really cute pocketbook...i absolutely love it!!! i on the other hand am still shopping for his gift...he understands :-)

camping with the fam at san onofre state beach!

last weekend me, scott, bella and sully all went camping with todd, gina, morgan, jackson, bald jay and chantel in san clemente. it was the pups first time camping and what fun they had!! the only issue we had was one run in with 5-0 cuz scott had them off the leash playing around and sully eating through his leash twice! besides those three minor incidents, we all had a blast. scott and i slept in todd's tent with a king size blow up air mattress...thank god because i don't think i could have handled sleeping on a sleeping pad and we forgot pillows. the pups had a bed next to ours but of course they slept on the air mattress with us and not in their bed.

thanks for the hat liz...i LOVE it!!

bella's first camping trip


sully's first camping trip

on saturday gina, scott, the kidlets, the pups and i took a walk to the beach. it was only about a mile and a half away so it wasn't to bad. gina let the "dog team" take the trailor for a quick ride. it is funny to see them pulling the kids up the hill.

when we got to the beach morgan wouldn't get out of the trailer....she doesn't really like the sand or the water. she thinks it's "too big for momo"

jackson braved the beach with us while scott was playing frisbee with the pups.

when we got back from the beach it was time for happy hour!! we had sooo much food and then there was the bottle of tequila. it was fun being pregnant and sober and watching everyone drink and get crazy. unfortunately the food and the tequila didn't mix too well for scott. that is all i am going to say about that :-)

a girl at work gave me this awesome ice cream ball that you toss around for 20 minutes and it makes such good ice cream....we had fun with that for a very short time......

....because someone wasn't there to catch the ball....yup it broke. momo didn't care...she still LOVED the ice cream.


i had to get this photo of momo with a dirty face and nose. it reminds me of so many of my own baby pictures...right mom
