30 weeks.

We're down to 10 weeks until this baby girl comes (give or take a couple of weeks)!  

That's kinda soon.  

T and I picked up Baby Girl's first piece of furniture yesterday.  It's the most adorable little dresser that we plan on using as a changing station too.  I'm a little excited.  And the fact that it was a decent price on KSL makes it even better.

We'll also paint the crib this weekend and make an IKEA run for a few other items we've had our eyes on to complete the nursery.  We still plan on keeping it super simple and clean.  We're all about not cluttering up a space before this little girl gets here to do it herself!

  

Baby Girl is definitely growing bigger everyday and is back to sitting on her mama's bladder during the day.  It's not unusual anymore to see me walking down the hall to the faculty bathrooms for the 4th or 5th time during the day.  

A colleague of mine mentioned the other day that I've been a pretty laid back pregnant lady without any complaints.  It made me smile.  The only one who really hears about those complaints is poor Tyler (who also gets the brunt of the emotional and hormonal side of this pregnancy).  But I really don't have much to complain about to anyone.  I'd love some more sleep (but who wouldn't?  It's daylight savings!) and there are certain pregnancy problems I'd rather not deal with.  I tell T all the time how blessed I feel that we've been throughout this pregnancy though.  I haven't had to miss work (unless you count getting the 24-hour flu last week where I felt more miserable than I have during this entire pregnancy), I've been healthy despite the fact that eating healthy and exercising get a little hard, and I've had enough energy to stay up with 26 eight-year-olds.  I honestly forget I'm pregnant sometimes until I look down and see this belly of mine.

Not too shabby.

We've been attempting to get a list together for a baby registry.  The one thing we're still figuring out is what stroller/carseat to get.  We've got our eyes on a couple, we just need to choose which one for sure that we want and which will fit our lifestyle the best.  

Plans for our future careers are still up in the air and which is both terrifying and exciting!  We both have a few different opportunities and avenues we could go in the future and it's definitely a faith-promoting experience to rely on the Lord and see where He takes us.

T and I have also made the goal to read the entire Book of Mormon on our own before Baby Girl gets here.  He's been doing awesome on his goal and I'm working my way on catching back up to him!  We're determined to finish it and meet our goal.  It's going happen.

On a sidenote: We spent about an hour with a couple of friends last night who found out they are moving next month.  We have mixed feelings.  It's great news for them, but we're going to miss them quite a bit.  It's one of those friendships that you think you've finally figured the whole friendship thing out and then they've gotta move.  To another state, no less.  I may or may not have cried (what's new these days?).  Sometimes I just really hate change, especially when it comes to good people leaving your life.  Especially when those people have really great taste and buy you your favorite pair of mint jeans and has the same taste in books.

Thank goodness for social media and modern technology.  At least it won't seem like they've fallen off of the face of the earth...
