Warning: Random catch-up post ahead.

So, back on the old diet as of last week. Lost 5lbs again, so far. Eating twigs and berries and lean meat blows... I want a cookie.

We had j's birthday party last weekend. My mom and dad, sister, her hubs, and Maximus all came up for the party. Along with J's friends from Sedalia and their little girl. It was pretty fun! I made some awesome baseball cupcakes that probably belong on CakeWrecks if they were professional cupcakes, but since I'm an amateur, they turned out pretty ok. At least you could tell they were baseballs and j thought they were so cool. That's what counts really. Plus, of course, they were yummy. Hey - cupcakes are my thing. What can I say? I never realize just how much I miss my fam until I'm about to see them and I get overly excited like this:

I went to the dentist to fix the chipped tooth. The bad news is, I have to replace the whole entire gosh darn crown. Goodbye $600. . .and that's after insurance. -ouch- BUT, silver lining bright side of the situation is that, I can finally whiten my teeth. Yay no more yellow yucky poo poo teeth!

On that note, teeth whitener goopy gel HURTS like h-e-double-hockey-sticks. Feels like your gums are on fire, they are even *white* when you take the trays out (only for 45 agonizing minutes). And to add to that, 24/7 tooth sensitivity. -sigh- Beauty is pain, people. These teeth better turn out pupil-scorching white...

I'm eating a cookie as we speak. Diet = Fail. Guess I'll be working out extra hard in the gym tonight...Erg. Cookie goooood though. Mmmmmm.... -drool- Its pathetic how much I love cookies and cake. I love cake. LOVE. It.

I probably shouldn't be drinking coffee if I'm trying to whiten my teeth, huh? -sigh- This blows.

Sometimes I just wanna be this, ya know?

Uh, on second thought, maybe working out and eating healthy isn't so bad... I would rather look like this:

I hear the StairMaster calling my name. I'm out to go try that bulimic thing...

-sigh-

29 Weeks

Here I am at 29 weeks exactly. I'm at +24 lbs which is a little higher than I would like, but after a week of crappy eating on vacation, I won't complain too much. My blood pressure is good and just got word that I passed my glucose test. Yay! My emotions get the better of me a lot this pregnancy, but I don't know if its all pregnancy related or if some of it is just me trying to work through a lot of emotional issues - either way, trying to hold it together some days has been rough. I just wish I was able to enjoy being pregnant...but alas, its just not meant to be. Trying to enjoy it as much as possible, all the little kicks and wiggles and special time with Beckett. Also, trying very hard to stay focused on eating healthy and walking as much as I can, although, I can't walk far anymore without the belly cramping. Still trying to keep from gaining that 50 lbs like I did last time ;) Beckett is extremely active, and according to the baby center emails I get, he...

Romping In The Bluebonnets

This weekend was our weekend in Texas for J's buddy's wedding. So, J, j, Gemma and myself all loaded up, and we drove down Thursday night (overnight) to BCS to spend some time with J's family too. I, of course, have never been down to Texas in the spring, but the wildflowers are GORGEOUS, especially the bluebonnets. It just looks like they exploded all over the country side! They were everywhere. J's mom wanted us all to take some pictures in the bluebonnets so we drove out to the side of a road in the middle of wherever and took some pics. They turned out great. It was quite entertaining to get the kiddos (J's nieces were there too) to cooperate and the puppy, not to mention J's mom losing her balance to kneel down with her grandbabies . And she had to wrangle all three kids and a puppy to take J & I's pic together...God bless her. It was NOT easy. Ha! The most adorable picture of them all was of my little baby girl: How precious is this picture?...

27 Weeks

Here we all are...me, Baby A, and my squishy puffy cheeks. Fabulous, non?! So, obviously I'm feeling a little less cute these days, not all my weight is in my belly anymore. Eh, I only semi have an issue with it. Its only going to get worse and I should just enjoy this only time in my life where chubby + pot belly = cute. Overall, I'm feeling really good. I've been fighting fatigue off and on again, but nothing like I was during the first trimester. I'm amazed at how fast the second trimester has gone and can't believe this is my last week! I am very ready for #3 although I also know that means I can wave bye-bye to the feeling great and say hello to feeling extra bloated and uncomfortable. The swelling has definitely started. My feet and legs are fat, fat, FAT at the end of the day and I can feel it in my hands a little some days too. The little man is going CRAZY in my belly! I can't tell if he's practicing to become a gymnast or an MMA fighter. He's d...
