Week 24 Bumpdate

Week 24Week 24 Bumpdate

 

size of the baby: Cantaloupe – 10.5 -11.8 inches

 

total weight gain: 14 pounds or less probably this week

 

gender: Little Miss

 

maternity clothes: loving my maternity leggings and jeans per usual and starting to need to go shopping for some longer tops! Yikes!

 

movement: I feel like I keep saying this but feeling her move is seriously the best part. I love feeling her throughout the day.

 

sleep: Slept really good this week and a lot. I had a stomach bug early in the week so I got a ton of sleep the next two days recovering. No fun.

 

nursery: I am anxiously waiting to put her crib together. We had a busy weekend and then I was sick, so now its just a matter of when I can convince Kevin to put together her crib!

 

craving: nothing really this week. stomach bug took my appetite.

 

symptoms: I feel like i’m constantly getting up to go the bathroom in the middle of the night. Thank you baby girl.

 

kevin is: loving messing with me about not putting the crib together yet. We will see how long he holds out/how quick I can convince him to set it up! & he actually got off on time for the first time in months – yay for semi having my husband back!

 

looking forward to: baby shower planning coming up and all kinds of fun events on the horizon. I feel like the spring is going to fly by.

 

best moments: My cousins were in town this weekend, so I had a lot of fun getting to spend time with them. I also pre-registered for the hospital and that was semi-exciting (really nothing was too exciting about it except checking it off my to-do list). I still need to call and schedule our hospital tour and sign us up for classes. Oh, and I also bought an adorable Kate Spade diaper bag this week! I was really set on using a handbag as a diaper bag, but the salesperson helped talked me into a traditional diaper bag and I am super happy with my decision.

  • The Cuisinart 4.5-quart Basket Air Fryer is now available in Target stores, and the 8x8 cooking surface gives me plenty of room to get dinner going fast!

Baseball nights mean we’re usually racing from one thing to the next, so having an easy way to make a quick weeknight dinner has been such a mom win. I also love that it can air fry, roast, bake, and keep food warm—so it’s good for more than just crispy chicken. 🙌🏻

If you’re looking for an easy kitchen find to simplify busy weeknights, check it out at Target!

  • The best part of fall isn’t always the big things—it’s the little moments in between. 🤎 #ad

A cozy night at home, a blanket, a snack, and time together with @highlightsforchildren  turned into one of those simple family moments I know we’ll remember.

From working through activities to laughing at the silly parts, I love how something so simple can spark conversation, curiosity, and connection.

As we ease into the holiday season, I’m trying to make more room for moments like these… just slowing down, being together, and enjoying the little things. ✨
