20 week bumpdate



a little front and side view also I gain all my weight in my belly and my face and arms ugh!




How far along? 20 weeks over halfway there!!!!

Total weight gain: No idea and honestly I’m not too worried about it. I gained a ton of weight with Grayson and I’m way under that so I think for me I’m doing good. I just keep telling myself that everybody’s body is different and mine likes to get big during pregnancy regardless of what I eat.
Maternity clothes? Yes maternity clothes with some regular tops still mixed in
Stretch marks? No new ones. Using lotion twice a day morning and night.

Sleep: Off and on. It’s hard to roll over in bed without my back killing me but I’m still in love with my pregnancy pillow
Best moment this week: Spending some time just Michael and I going through our stored baby clothes I cried and was all where did my baby go. Michael said good news for you you have two in your belly that will be here soon! Ha! Also I have like 3 newborn pieces because Grayson came out 10 pounds so we skipped that phase all together. Looks like I will need to go shopping.

Miss Anything? I officially gave up grocery shopping and that was hard and I shed tears over it. I fell bad putting one more thing on my husband’s plate but I would be sore for the whole rest of the night and most of the next day so it was time. 

Movement: Yes just waiting for the outside movement so my boys can feel them.

Food cravings: Back on hot ham and cheese subs and now I’m loving my yogurt finally something healthy but then I also have been digging some peanut butter m&m’s ha! Can’t get too healthy now

Anything making you queasy or sick: Leftovers. I made sausage potato soup and the smell of it the next morning in the fridge was horrific.

Gender: We have to very sealed envelopes containing the genders that we will find out with out family’s on the 16th!

Labor Signs: No

Symptoms: Got a support belt and wear it all day at work it has done wonders for my back but at the end of the day it gets uncomfortable.

Belly Button in or out? Flat. My belly looks fake

Wedding rings on or off? on

Happy or Moody most of the time: HAPPY!

Looking forward to: Christmas festivities!

Grayson: He said to me yesterday that my belly grew overnight and that it will get bigger because we have to save the babies in there until later. He still likes to kiss my belly goodnight and snuggle "wif his babies".
I’m anxious for my next appointment on the 19th because as of right now I don’t know when the next time I will see them on a sonogram will be so I would love to see them soon. This is my last monthly appointment and then I go to every 2 weeks. I can’t believe how fast this pregnancy is going. Way faster than when I was pregnant with Grayson.

Friday Favorites

Love that it's Friday Love that its Friday and we have a beautiful weekend ahead of us! Linking up with Andrea today! One These PJ's. When we first got married (and even before I was married really) I used to wear cute PJ's to bed and then I started to wear not so cute PJ's to bed so I ordered some new ones and OMG girls get these now. So so soft so so comfy and under $20.00! Plus they have pockets!   Two While your shopping at Kohls throw some of these picture frames in your cart! Just for fun! I love that they are easy to change out and have a distressed look! Plus they can sit on a shelf or be hung on the wall. Love! Three We have been swimming like crazy and that equals all the things that go with swimming like a million towels and swim suits. My bathroom was a mess. I usually never wash my swim suits I just rinse them out and hang dry they last a lot longer doing it that way and so I had things hanging every where! So I ord

A nice little sweet spot

The sweet spot…. We seem to have hit one. I feel like we have not been in a sweet spot since the twins were about 6 months old. You know before they were mobile and can get into a ton of mischief. When kids are 0-6 months they still like to be held they eat mostly bottles and they mostly just stay in one spot. No issues, you can go places and even though you have to pack up your whole house to be prepared you can relax. And if you are in my family someone is always willing to hold or feed or change a baby. 7-months to 2.5 years old is what I refer to as the lost years. You have so many things you have to do for them they are not potty trained and they are mobile and get into EVERYTHING. Going outside is more work than its worth and with twins they scatter in opposite directions. Three on one is so hard handle in big open spaces. I would often find myself skipping outside time because the work was just too much for me. When the twins turned 3 and Grayson was 6 it felt like we had a

Home Schooling

Ah home schooling something that all of the country was thrown into. March 13 th was the last day that Grayson went to school and Charlotte and Marshalls last day was March 12 th . We got the call on March 15 th that school was closed for 2 weeks and that a pick up for at home materials would be on Tuesday. It was not required just suggested and so we loosely did school work. A worksheet here, spelling words here, some math problems ya know simple things. We truly believed that 2 weeks and they would be back in the classroom that is what the district presented as happening and so the distance learning was just to occupy time not to really learn anything new. Everything we were given was review.  Then we got the notification March 30 th we were closed again for another 2 weeks. Again, we were being loose with the learning because I was now working from home all but one day a week and had all three kids home and lets be honest it was a lot. Michael was still working 4-5 days a wee
