15 Week Bumpdate

IMG_4507 - Version 315 Week Bumpdate

 

size of the baby: Navel Orange – 4 inches

 

total weight gain: 4 pounds (i think, I don’t really have a scale lol so i’m guessing!)

 

gender: Still unknown. I started out with a strong conviction that it’s a girl, but the past week I have been wondering if it’s a boy. So really, at this point, who knows!

 

maternity clothes: Same. Same. Two pairs of pants and normal other clothes. I really miss shopping. I feel like I’m in an awkward stage because I don’t want to buy too many things and them end up not fitting in two weeks or so. The struggle is real.

 

movement: Last week I mentioned that I randomly would feel a little uncomfortable in places/fluttering and I am pretty convinced its the little now. We will see though.

 

sleep: I seemed to wake up more this week in the middle of the night and the weird dreams are constant. I’m ready for those to be over, I am not use to dreaming this much.

 

missing: My familia.

 

craving: mexican food. pancakes. sweetarts. mozzarella sticks.

 

symptoms:  Nausea was present a lot this week, however, my face seemed to be clearing up a little bit. I have been breaking out like crazy since I have been pregnant.

 

kevin is: so much more patient than me. He is so content waiting three more weeks to find out if its a boy or girl, but I’m going crazy. I am ready to know now.

 

looking forward to: thanksgiving with our family next week and our doctors appointment! Also, the yummy food on thanksgiving. Mashed potatoes sound extremely good right now.

 

best moments: We got some of our Gender Reveal party decor stuff in the mail and I am working on planning out more details. We also had a pretty busy week still so getting a date night to ourselves Tuesday night was wonderful. We rarely have time for solo date nights, especially during the week, so it was really, really fun.

    I had some reeeaaally weird dreams during the 2nd trimester too. Definitely not the worst symptom to have, but certainly a strange one!

    Having weird dreams was one of the first signs of pregnancy for me!

  • Easy summer lunches don’t have to be complicated ☀️

This lunch took just a few minutes to put together, but the real excitement came when the kids saw their new rainbow @ahimsahomeusa mindful mealtime sets 🌈 We loved our original stainless steel sets so much that I ordered four more, and they’ve quickly become a favorite around here.

I love that they’re durable, easy to clean, and designed to grow with our family. Sometimes the simplest swaps end up being the ones you appreciate the most. 🤍

What’s your go-to easy summer lunch for the kids?

  • #Ad FrogTape reMOVEables™ helped us turn an ordinary movie night into the cutest little “Hop Into Movie Night” 🐸✨

Using @frogtaperemoveables made decorating SO easy — we used the poster strips for our Disney and Pixar’s Hoppers movie poster and wire hooks for the vines and garland around the mantel with no tools and no wall damage 🙌

The kids had the best time following the lily pad hop challenge straight to our cozy movie setup 🍿💚

  • #ad I’m constantly juggling so many schedules and lists, so I’ve been trying to create routines that feel a little more intentional instead of overwhelming ✨

Lately, I’ve been using the Pilot FriXion Vibe Erasable Pens to color-code everything from content planning to appointments and meal prep and I love how each pack creates a different vibe while I’m planning.

The DreamGlow shades instantly put me into a more creative, positive mindset when I’m brainstorming ideas, while the ZenFocus colors help me slow down, focus, and organize everything on my to-do list 💙💚

And because they’re erasable, I can adjust plans throughout the day without my planner looking chaotic by the end of it 😅

Productivity…but make it aesthetic 💕 Available at Office Depot Office Max! What’s your vibe?
