Weekend Fun!

This weekend flew by!

Friday was one of those days that I didn't feel like getting out of bed. My body was telling me, "hey, we need a day to rest." So, I did just that and it was glorious. 

By the evening, I was feeling much better and even stepped outside with Charlie to enjoy the beautiful weather!

It was national donut day of Friday too! Did you celebrate? I was able to pick up these beauties from Tim Horton's... You can't tell a pregnant girl it's national donut day and NOT expect her to drop everything a go get some...

Saturday was spent celebrating one of my good friend's son's first birthday! It was a nautical theme. Everything was so cute!

Saturday night was spent in with Bill. We watched a movie and were in bed pretty early. Wow, are we getting old and boring! However, on Sunday I was up and at it early so that felt great. We made a big breakfast of eggs, bacon and french toast. 

I received my Pink Blush Maternity shipment over the weekend! I am so excited that I found a website that has really cute maternity clothes for not a lot of $$. I will share what I got later this week!

The remainder of Sunday consisted of chores around the house and running errands. While I was out and about, I just so happened to pop into DSW and found a few deals that I couldn't say no to...

I have been looking for a neutral colored crossbody for a while and I just loved this one when I saw it. It was only $40! I also found this red leather Coach iPad case for only $40 (originally $178!). I was pumped!

Bill and I are also getting things organized in the spare bedroom to sell in order to make room for the new nursery. I can't wait to start decorating! Of course, I will be sharing the progress so stay tuned!

Friday Five

Some of my favs this week include:

1 // My new kate spade pink wristlet (similar). Purchased during their surprise sale a few weeks ago. Love the color so much!

2 // Also loving my colored aviators by Peppers. I purchased them in a ski shop while in Colorado a few months ago. I get a ton of compliments on them!

3 // Pedicures... This girl was in desperate need of one! I have a feeling these will be happening a lot this Summer... Especially when I can no longer bend over to paint my toes :/

4 // I've posted this before, but I think I'm finally ready to splurge and buy a pair of Kendra Scott earrings... Which color to you like best? White pearl or pink?

5 // Another day, another maxi... Yep, I've added 2 new maxi dresses to my collection. 

These are from Target and are both sooo comfy. They are not maternity, but are stretchy, so hoping I can still wear them for the next few months. I'm sure you will see these in future "Bump-Date" posts!

That's all for this week's 5 on Friday!

Awesome Pregnancy Moments // Trimester #1

It is true that there are many moments during my first trimester that I felt uncomfortable, sick and tired. However, there have been so many moments that make up for this short term discomfort and have made me realize how lucky I am to be pregnant. 

1 // Telling our parents... This was the best moment of pregnancy by far! We told both sets of parents the weekend of Mother's Day. We framed this photo and put it in a gift bag. We made our mothers open this gift last and they both had the same reaction... Loud screams of joy, followed by lots of hugs and both our dads teared up a little!

2 // My first Mother's Day... The thought had not even crossed my mind that it was my first mother's day on May 11, 2014. I woke up in the morning to find a beautiful bouquet of flowers and the sweetest card from Bill. The gesture completely melted my heart!

3 // Seeing little peanut on the ultrasound... Not gonna lie, these ultrasound photos used to creep me out. People will post them on facebook and share them with everyone! To me they all looked the same... Now that it's my little peanut in there, I love looking at him/her!!! I have a copy of the most recent one in my purse at all times. I take it out and look at it whenever I feel like I need to remind myself why I feel fat/tired/nauseous/overwhelmed... And then, it all makes sense and all those negative thoughts just slip away :) 

4 // Buying baby clothes... Yes, I already have a shopping problem and I don't even know what the gender is yet! I can only imagine how much worse this addiction is going to get once I know if it's a boy or a girl... 

5 // Having an excuse to eat ice cream &/or fro yo everyday... Baby wants fro yo? Baby gets fro yo!! this has been my go to craving everyday!!

6 // Celebrating the end of trimester #1... It is the last week of my 1st trimester and I am starting to feel physically a lot better. Not as much nausea. If I do feel it, it's only right before I go to bed. Still tired, but that is getting better too. Bill and I went on a date night this past weekend and I enjoyed a "mocktail"!! I even stayed out until almost 10 pm! Whoo hoo!

7 // Feeling so much love and support from friends and family... This is up there too with the best moment. After telling our close friends and family, there was a overflow of love and support. We got so many cards in the mail and little gifts. My brother gave me the most beautiful bouquet of tulips that lasted a long time! Also, talking to friends that have had babies or are pregnant has been so wonderful. I'm lucky to have such a great support group!

There you have it. It truly is one of the best feelings in the world! 

I can't believe I'm already almost 1/3 of the way to my due date!

I'll be back tomorrow with my 13 week "Bump-Date"!
