34 weeks & 2 1/2 years old

I'm definitely on the down hill with this pregnancy. I am closer to 35 weeks now, but hey who's counting. I had a little scare last week at my Dr.'s appointment. My blood pressure was back up and it didn't come down after a little bit. My doc sent me over to the hospital to get monitored just in case. Not going to lie, I kind of freaked out. I am all ready for him to come, but I wasn't ready for him to come 6 weeks early. Luckily it came down after being at the hosptial for about an hour. I am just hoping to get to 36 weeks like I did with Addi. I would definitely go longer just so he has time to finish up his growing, but I am just hoping my BP will stay down until then. Fingers crossed.

He is definitely getting quite active and gives me the those nice little jabs to the ribs. 
For the most part I feel ok. My hips are starting to hurt and if I'm on my feet too long then my back hurts, just the normal stuff that comes with pregnancy. I love feeling him move and knowing that I will get to meet him soon. I can't believe how much faster this pregnancy has gone that my first. 



Addilynn is now 2 1/2. Sad huh? I just look at her and go where did my baby girl go? She is a handful at time, but other times I can't get enough of her.



  • She still loves her bat and blank.
  • She is kind of a picky eater. 
  • She likes to read me books. 
  • She said her first prayer the other night. With help of course. Talk about a heart melting moment. 
  • She still likes to snuggle when she wakes up from her nap. 
  • She is still not interested in the potty. She won't even sit on it. 
  • She recognizes about 10 alphabet letters. 
  • We are working on counting. 
  • Her favorite colors are red and blue. 
  • She is such a little chatter box to me and Ty. But kind of clam when it comes to talking to other people. 
  • She loves Disney movies. She has her own nick names for all of them. Hair = Tangled, Frog = Princess & and the Frog, Itch (witch) = Snow White, Umbo = Dumbo, Hat = Toy Story, Bell = Beauty and the Beast, Hook = Peter Pan, Hi-ya = Kung Fu Panda. 
  • She still loves to have all her little treasures with her at all times. 
  • I love how she is my little helper. She likes to help me clean and wash things. It is amazing how quickly they pick up on things. 



She made this hat at the fair and 
she was so proud of it. 


I know I say it all the time, but  love my little girl so much.

I'm so glad my child isn't the only one who refuses to use the potty! I'm so ready for him to be potty trained, but I guess they only do it when they are ready...Still frustrating though! Addi's so cute, and getting so big!! And you are such a cute pregnant chic! Hope you are doing well, and I hope your BP stays low for the rest of your pregnancy. Good luck!
