28 weeks - Welcome to THIRD TRIMESTER!




28 weeks! Third Trimester! Can you believe it??

I like the right picture because it show my button popping out - haha!

I don't have too many updates.. everything's been about the same.  I've been really fortunate to have a good pregnancy so far.

*My doctor said at the last visit I finally had my "growth spurt" that everyone gets at one point or another.
   --She did say my belly was measuring a little small- we'll check again at the next visit. Didn't sound too worrisome.
*I've gained about 25 lbs - and I feel like I've gained 25 pounds!  
   --It's starting to get hard to bend over and roll out of bed. And I'm getting tired a lot faster. Bending over to pick up Cosmo's spilled dog food left me surprisingly out of breath yesterday!
*I had my glucose test at the last visit too. She said I am basically the opposite of a diabetic- and I need to eat more frequently.
   --This is how I've always been though. Even before pregnancy, if I don't eat every couple hours it hits me really hard- I get grumpy and "down" so that's always been one thing I make a priority in the day is to eat/drink frequently to avoid that.
*I am HOT all the time
*When I get too hot, my feet and calves swell and my hands a little too.  This makes wearing my shoes uncomfortable!
*The top of my belly feels like it "goes to sleep" when I sit hunched over too long.  Long meaning like more than two minutes.  Terrible for a DENTAL HYGIENIST who is hunched over ALL DAY and I notice it when I'm driving too.
*I have been bra-less for the last month.  They are just so uncomfortable!
   --BEST. DECISION. EVER.
*I love feeling little Sweet Baby J moving around. He's starting to get strong!
  --We still don't have an official name for him but.. I think we may have found "the one." And I think you will all love it as much as I do! :) :)
*We still don't really have anything set up for his baby room. I laid out a couple of his outfits though and blankets and it made me so excited! :)
*Jonathon is really excited and so cute. He is going to be the best dad.
*And Cosmo is excited to be a big brother! Haha JK.
  --Actually, the other night we were in the kitchen and Cosmo click-clacked out of the room (our hardwood floors downstairs make a click-clack noise when he walks around that i love :) and anyone who knows Cosmo knows he never leaves our side.  So I was surprised when he wasn't around. I went to investigate and found him in the baby room with the lights off laying on the floor near his folded clothes. It was so cute!  I think they'll make good buddies. :)


Anyway, that's all for now! I am SO EXCITED to fly to Utah next month and see my family who I've missed so much and have a shower and get to see my old friends!!  AND BEST OF ALL I get to meet my new NEICE who will be born sometime this next week or two!! I can't wait!  She's already got the two CUTEST big brothers who will love her and tease her. Hehe.

Oh yeah, I signed up for some birthing classes for me and Jonno in two weeks. I'm looking forward to that.

University of Oregon vs Tennessee football game in Eugene, OR

We headed down to Eugene, Oregon to Autzen Stadium to watch the Ducks play against the Tennessee Volunteers. It was fun to watch such great teams play, the loud and fun environment, and pretty drive down!

Jonathon and I began our relationship dating and going to all the BYU football home games so college football has always been a fun part of our relationship. Jonathon even proposed to me at Lavell Edwards Stadium at BYU on the field!



Awesome stadium!







Jonno near the end zone!





Sweet Baby J's first football game!

They had these little wood beam things that had scores of previous games. If Oregon won, it was yellow. If the other team won, it was painted their school colors. There were a couple hundred of them. Here is Jonno and his alma mater! 


Me and my DUCK TRUCK!
-This was pretty sweet. It even had blue and green "feathers" painted on the back end of the truck.



We saw this huge blow up guy and I told Jonno to take a picture of him.  He took his phone out and unlocked it and all of a sudden the guy fell on his face and was starting to deflate!  They were deflating him to start cleaning up and we missed this photo opp by literal SECONDS!!  Hence my sad face in the photo with the big blow up guy instead. Haha!


I included this one so you could see my DUCK earrings zoomed in :)
Aren't they cute! 

We love the fall and ducks and being together and college football and LIFE. :)
