28 Weeks

     Today I am 28 weeks!  Still feeling really tired.  I have noticed this past week that I have started to lose my appetite.  Nothing sounds good!  I have the hardest time trying to figure out what to have for breakfast, lunch, and dinner!  Wish I had this problem when I am actually trying to diet. My heartburn is much better now that I was able to get a prescription at my last doctor appointment.  He gave me a prescription for Pepcid.  I was given this with Dacen and it works wonders!  I just take two a day. I usually will take one a little bit before lunch and one a little bit before dinner. I am still feeling the baby move ALOT!  He really gets active at night and in the morning! I am looking forward to this week because we go to Great Wolf Lodge!  We are planning on leaving Thursday!  So I only have a 3 day work week! YAY!  I am wondering how I will hold up on the trip.  I am really hoping I can keep up and that I don't get too tired!  I really wish I was able to go down the slides and stuff with Dacen but we will just have to plan another trip in the future!  Things I have been missing lately are my energy, sleeping on my stomach, being able to get up and down quickly! Things I have been enjoying this week are feeling the baby move, having Dacen cuddle with me and kiss my belly (I think he is starting to comphrend he is going to have a baby brother more and more), and no more heartburn! I am exicted for our ultra sound that is coming up this month on July 24th! 

Oklahoma Sunsets and Shopping

Here is a view from tonight right outside our front door! Love it! It is such a pretty night! I left to go pick up Panera Vread for dinner abd had to snap this real quick!
Today I went shopping with my sister! I went to the maternity store A Pea In The Pod and picked up a few things! I have definitely needed some new bras and they have the perfect ones! They are kinda pricey but they are super comfy and they work for nursing too! I also picked up a night gown I thought was cute and a shirt that was 50% off! The bras and pajamas were buy 3 get 1 free! We also went Victoria's Secret and I bought a pair of leopard PJ's! I was really the mood to shop for comfy jammies! LOL! I am thinking I might bring them to the hospital with me! They are super comfy and would work great for nursing! I was in one of those moods today where I wanted to buy everything I saw! I had to control myself! Why is it sometimes I go to the mall and I can't find anything or I'm just not in the shopping mood? And then when I am needing to save money and not buy I end up finding tons of things I want! LOL! Hope you are having a lovely Saturday!

It's Friday!!!

Yay! It's Friday! So happy and excited for the weekend! Less than a week now until we leave for our mini vacation to Great Wolf Lodge! Tonight I am relaxing while I lay in bed and watch more Desperate Housewives! I am on season 5 now! Eeek! It's SO good! And so addicting! Every time an episode ends I just gave to watch another! I have been watching it alot here lately because I'm so tired so at night I always end up getting in bed early and watching a couple of episodes before I fall asleep! I am looking forward to sleeping in tomorrow! Sleeping in is the best part about weekends! Thankfully Dacen is a night owl and so he usually sleeps in too! What are you looking forward to this weekend?

Happy 4th of July

Tonight we went to a fireworks show! My mom and sister came with us! It was so much fun! The weather was absolutely perfect! Happy 4th of July everyone!!!

Early Night

Yay! Tomorrow is the 4th of July and Steve and I are both off work! I am sooo tired tonight that I think it will be an early night to bed for me! We went and had sushi for dinner! I ordered the Spicy Cowboy Roll since it had just cooked shrimp and avocado on the inside and crab on the outside! It was really yummy! Now we are getting ready to watch Big Brother but I'm not sure if I will even be able to make it through till the end! I don't know why but here lately I have been really tired! I am hoping to get caught up on my sleep though since I get to sleep in tomorrow! I will probably spend the day laying out while Dacen swims and then we are going to a fireworks show tomorrow night! What are your 4th of July plans?

Chacos

     I thought I would do a blog post on my new shoes I purchased last week.  I purchased a pair of Chacos from Zappos.com.  I purchased these specifically for the lake!  I love them!  I didn't have a good pair of shoes to wear in the lake.  Usually I will just wear and old pair of flip flops and stumble around in them.  But since I am pregnant I wanted to make sure I had a good pair of shoes to wear in the water that I would not fall in.  These were perfect!  They stayed on my feet great and I never slipped.  Also, I think they are a little more stylish than water shoes.  I like that I can wear them when I am not in the water unlike water shoes.  We are taking Dacen on a trip to Great Wolf Lodge next week and I definintely plan on packing these to walk around in.  They are really comfy, sturdy, and are great in the water!  I am so happy I found them.  And I have to add, that if you are looking to buy a pair you should check out Zappos!  They have SO many different styles and they shipped next day!  Zappos is one of my all time favorite sites to buy from.  The customer service is the best I have ever experienced!  I always make sure to check Zappos first for anything I am looking for! If you are looking for a good shoe to wear in the water or a good sandal to go walking in or for outdoor activities I would recommend getting a pair of Chacos!  They are awesome!  They have all different kinds of colors, styles, straps, soles. Here are the ones I purchased.  They are the the Chaco ZX/2 Vibram Yampa style in black. 

Cuppy Cakes

I made some 4th of July cupcakes! They were are so yummy! I am definitely liking sweets with this pregnancy! I know I should probably eat alot healthier but I just can't seem to resist! Once I have the baby I am going to have a lot of hardwork ahead of me to get the baby weight off! However, I did get some exercise in today! I took Dacen for a walk after dinner! Not much is going on tonight! Just having a relaxing night at home watching The Bachelorette! It's kind of been hard for me to get into this season! I don't really have a favorite guy. There is still drama but for some reason it's not keeping my attention like it usually does. If you watch The Bachelorette who is your favorite?
