bellies!!!

lately, i feel like everything i do is all about my belly... i bump things (and people... sorry!) with it, try to get dressed around it, sleep with it propped up on a pillow, and pretty much just try to keep my baby girl comfortable in there! and although she acts like she has all the room in the world in there (she bounces and flips around like it's no big deal... meanwhile my ribs and tailbone are killing me because of it. and not to mention my bladder... nevermind, i won't go there) i'm feeling like she is quickly running out of room... i mean, how much more can my skin stretch?!? anyway, i just thought i'd post a few more belly pictures... the first one is of my friend courtney and i a few weeks ago... she is 33 weeks here and i'm 30 weeks... did i mention we have like 13 girls in our ward who are pregnant? yea... church is about to get real loud.


and here's my quick belly shot at 32 weeks. and ps... can i just say that i hate "phone in the mirror" pictures?? and here i am... phone in the mirror. but in my defense... i'm home by myself 95% of the time... my poor hubs is so busy with school and work and by the time he gets home at night, i'm already in my pj's not looking picture worthy... so phone in the mirror pictures it is for now... enjoy.


How far along? 32 weeks (well, 33 now that i'm posting this)
Total weight gain: blah 25 lbs.
Maternity clothes? yep. sometimes i can get lucky and wear regular jeans but the whole stretchy waist thing is so much more comfy right now.
Stretch marks? no... and i hope it stays that way.
Sleep: eh... it depends.
Best moment this week: going to the dr to find out that i haven't gained any wieght the past 4 weeks! go me! and don't worry, bambina is still perfectly healthy... and while my dr was checking her heartbeat, she decided that right at that moment she was going to show off her gymnastics/karate skills... and made both the dr and the nurse go "whoa!!!" made me giggle. that silly little show off.
Miss Anything? just being myself.
Movement: yes... austin is convinced she is going to be a boxer.
Food cravings: coke. regular coke. can i find anything else to pack on more calories?? geez.
Anything making you queasy or sick: nope.
Gender: my sweet little bambina.
Labor Signs: back pain. constant back pain.
Symptoms: heartburn.
Belly Button in or out? in. well, it depends on the time of day. but it's either in or flat.
Wedding rings on or off? on.
Happy or Moody? eh... i'd say mostly happy. a little moody.
 
next up... baby shower pictures :)

tricks and treats


this is one of my absolute favorite days of the year... i love love love halloween!
this year, we:

went to see thriller at tuacahn down in st.george. it was amazing! i didn't really know what i was getting into when i bought the tickets... and neither did austin. the entire thing was dancing ha ha! but it was so fun! lots of cool halloween dances, yummy hot chocolate and zombies everywhere! they would walk around the audience and pretty much scare the crap out of you... or eat your popcorn... or play with your hair... or sit next to you and share your blanket with you... if we go see it again, i definitely won't be sitting in an isle seat!


 carved pumpkins (or should i say austin carved it... i wasn't too into it this year. plus, i was a little preoccupied)


i made homemade cinnamon rolls for the first time! yum!! (this is why i couldn't carve pumpkins... i was slaving away in the kitchen making these bad boys... and let me tell you, they were delicious! thanks em for the yummy recipe)



and of couse we dressed up! i've totally dictated our costumes these past 2 years... but it's a little tough to find a cute costume while pregnant... so here's what we were:


skeletons!! (babe, don't hate me for putting this picture up cause your eyes are totally closed... it's really the costumes that i'm trying to get at here ;) )

no hiding for my baby girl on halloween


we even dressed up at work!


well, there you have it... happy halloween from the hunt's!
