29 weeks! Enjoying Fall with my little family

Wow! The weeks seem to be cruising by! Does anyone else feel that way? geesh. This week has been pretty relaxing for all of us here. Mason and I have been signing up for a lot of library groups and classes to keep him nice and busy this fall before baby arrives. I want to make sure I spend as much quality time with him as I can before baby girl is here!

Brandon and I are discussing babies room a little and I feel a little bad I haven't done much for her yet! We are debating whether to have her right next to Mason's room or close to ours. I like the idea of her being right by ours so it's a little easier to hear her. We have also decided on her name which is so exciting! Her name is going to be Amelia and "Mila" for short. I feel strongly that she is going to fit this name really well…I have been obsessed with it since the moment I found out I was having a little girl :) What are your thoughts on the name? For a middle name we are debating between Rose and Ann. 

Brandon's dad and step mom came to the house over the weekend which was really nice. The guys were able to watch football while Mary and I went and shopped a little. I had some returns and wanted to get some stretchy yoga pants so it was nice to get out on a dreary day! 

I had an appt. for baby and my doctor wants to see me every 2 weeks now. The only thing he doesn't like is my iron levels. My mom was super anemic with all her pregnancies and it seems like that is happening with me as well! I take iron pills, eat lots of food with iron, and my levels just aren't changing. The hardest part about low iron is the fatigue I feel. It's been a lot harder getting up and I feel like I'm going to crash after lunch everyday! I try to keep myself active with things to do in the afternoon which helps give me some energy and motivation! My neighbor and her kiddos also go on walks with Mason and I a lot so that helps this mama stay active too. 

I can't wait for Brandon and Mason to meet little Amelia. Brandon is going to be such an amazing dad to her! He is so sweet and caring I know she is totally going to be a little daddies girl. I think every girl deserves a dad like that! I've already warned him that I had a very awkward phase with bucked teeth, big nose, big eyes, big fuzzy hair..and it's SOOOOO important for a male role model in that little girls life to make her feel as beautiful as ever even during those tough times. Mason will also do a great job protecting her too so I feel like she is the luckiest girl in the world! 

I hope you all have a great week! Here are some photos of our fall fun. Excuse how nasty I look….my neighbor volunteered to take a picture and I realized I had no make up and probably 2 days without a shower! whoops. xoxo
