33 Weeks


33 weeks...3 days after getting home from San Francisco last night

trying to be artsy

Rollie playing around with the camera...I don't even look pregnant here compared to the other pic above!


Cooking time: 33, 3 days
Weight gain: +17...up 2 pounds from last week but I definitely feel like its all her!
Maternity clothes: Same...new maxi skirt in the picture above,  I now have purple, grey, and black from Target...that should last me for the rest of the summer and post postpartum. 
Food cravings: sweets mostly but I definitely can't eat big portions these days, there just isn't enough room.
Food dislikes: nothing
Missing: sleep, beer (especially being 4th of July today), and just feeling comfortable. 
What we've been up to: 
-We've been keeping busy which makes the time go by fast.  On Sunday night we had dinner in Napa with some of Rollie's family friends.  I had milk chocolate creme brulee for dessert that was sooooo good! 
-My work schedule changed until I go on maternity leave, so I now have Mondays and Tuesdays off which is great because Rollie has Mondays off, so we spent a great day together on Monday with lunch in downtown Petaluma at Sugo, outlet shopping, and some housework (chores are always more fun together)
-Last night we headed down to the city for dinner and a show...we bought tickets to American Idiot Musial back in November.  Before the show we had dinner at Green Chili Kitchen, a recommendation from my boss...Rollie was in heaven, being that it was New Mexico style food.  The show was fantastic, really made me want to do more things like that!
-Today we are both working, but at least they are short days, and then I think we are just having a few friends over to BBQ tonight.  Being this far along I don't really want to deal with parking/crowds at a big fireworks show...maybe we can see some from our house??
-I started 'nesting' this week big time...I washed a ton of nursery items, sheets, blankets, and some clothing and then I also cleaned out and organized my own closet which felt great!

    You look wonderful!! Plan to eat a little bit of food often (and peeing even more often). You are going to be a beautiful family.

In the thick of it

Hopefully monthly blogging won't become a habit.  Life has just been crazy.  April was a big blur. We host a bi annual pick up party at work and for the months of April and October I'm pretty much a working like mad or exhausted from working like mad.  Then it took a week to feel normal again! I'm also working split days at the moment (off on Sunday/Tuesday) and its really not fun.  I can't truly enjoy a weekend and its really hard to decompose on Sundays knowing that I have to work the next day.  Hopefully I only 2 more months of it until Piper can start at Lily's preschool/daycare. Rollie was a rock-star Dad as always, taking care of not only the girls but me too.  I know there were days that I was grumpy and not myself.  They did come to visit me one day during the craziness and that helped! Lily is wonderful 90% of the time and a threenager the other 10%.  It's absolutely amazing what a 3.5 year old absorbs and their tiny little imaginatio...

21 weeks Cooking time: 21 weeks, 1 day Weight gain: +4...I'm thinking from here on out it will probably be 1 pound a week since it was slow to come on in the beggining.  I think this is the ONLY time in my life that I've been called small by several people that know how far along I am.  I've struggled with weight since college, so maybe this is god's kind way of saying...you won't be one of those people who put on 50-60 pounds during pregnancy. Maternity clothes: oh yeah...I LOVE my grey maxi skirt from Target, I think I'll go grab the black one tonight :) Food cravings: red meat still...had a nice burger for lunch today and chocolate...I indulged in a bit too much Easter candy Food dislikes: frozen peas are the only thing I've found so far Missing: Sleeping through the night and beer...I've really been craving a nice cold beer latley and the non-alcholic stuff is crap so its not even worth the calories. What we've been up to: On Saturday ...

My latest read...

I have lots to blog about, Chicago, Michigan, our recent weekend in San Fran...but this comes first.  Last week I was doing my usual 'before bedtime Facebook scan', and I came across a post from a High School friend.  Maggie had posted an article about Natalie Taylors new memoir, 'Signs of Life'.  I knew it was going to be released  this Winter/Spring but it had slipped my mind.  I immediately went onto Amazon and ordered it.  I got the book Thursday and I'll be done tonight (I have 2 more chapters to go).  I'm not a fast reader.  Rollie can back me up on this one.  I got about 6 books for Christmas and I've only finished one so far, and I'm in the middle of two others.  Rollie would have had all of them finished and probably would have bought a few more by now. But back to the point.  A little background on Natalie...Natalie was married to Josh Taylor, one of my closest friends brother and someone that...
