37.5 weeks

Hey everyone! I hope all is well with everyone who is reading this...still not really sure if anyone reads my blog or not haha. Sometimes I feel like I'm talking to myself but that's ok! I am in the final home stretch of this pregnancy and I seriously can't believe it. I have gotten a lot accomplished in June so far. I finished my 90hrs of course work for real estate school, finished the baby room (except decorations), and re-organized the entire house. It feels really good to get that all out of the way! Now my time will be focused on studying for my two exams to get licensed, getting lots of rest, and waiting for little man to arrive!


I had a baby appointment last week and it was pretty much the same news as last time. I am not dilated but thinning more which is good. I have an appointment in two days to find out more. I have a feeling I made a lot more progress this time around. Last night I had really bad pains and pressure and braxton hicks from 7pm-12am...I was actually nervous to fall asleep because I didn't know if it was labor pains or just practice ones. I can see now why women go to the hospital a million times before birth, I've had so many weird pains the last 2 weeks! Luckily they're just practice contractions but still a bit painful none the less! The doctor told me the more aches and pains I'm feeling now the less I'll feel during child birth so I guess that's good news.


Brandon has been really supportive and great throughout this whole pregnancy. I am a very lucky girl to have him in my life. Last night I laughed as he was googling up pregnancy words he didn't know. He came across a very disturbing video and I think it almost sent him into shock. He's nervous about becoming a dad but I know he's going to be so amazing at it and I can't wait to see him as one!


I also found out that my sister is coming here July 18th. She is so calm and caring that I know she will be a great support if I go into labor while she's here. I think I'm going to need all the relaxation I can get and Mandi and Bran will be perfect at helping me through that! 


I will try my best and update my blog this weekend to post my Doctor visit and pictures from the 4th of July. I don't think we're doing anything too exciting since we're getting rain that day for the first time in 6 months! go figure huh? lol. Love you guys!


Here are some more updated pics of the room...sorry if they are getting old I just love before and afters! ha..now I just need wall art and it's complete!


Here is an owl that I never sold on etsy!! It matches nice but I may make another one :)
