Week 32 Bumpdate

Week 32Week 32 Bumpdate

 

size of the baby: Squash – 15.2-16.7 inches (probably close to 4 pounds)

 

total weight gain: ekk… i’m guessing 20lbs.

 

gender: Girl – Little Miss Brooke Nicole Clarke!

 

maternity clothes: all day long. I prefer to be in workout shorts and a loose tank. I’m not liking jeans right now.

 

movement: She has been moving pretty consistently. I would say not as much kicking this week, more so her moving around; however, I have caught a few jabs in my ribs.

 

sleep: I have been constantly tired this week. I feel like I could take a nap at any time (although I’m not). And, it has become hard to get comfortable when I am trying to lay down at night to go to sleep. Sigh.

 

nursery: Her room is so adorable, now it just needs her! I love that it is all put together.

 

craving: I have been craving cherry limeades a lot this week but not really anything else. Maybe, pizza? I’m not sure.

 

symptoms: I am getting big. end of story.

 

kevin is: getting more and more excited that she is almost here.

 

looking forward to: our hospital tour this Sunday and our friends wedding next weekend!

 

best moments: This week was pretty low key and I loved it. I have been pretty tired all week, so I have enjoyed not having any big plans or things to do at night. I finished a lot things I have been meaning to do and checking tasks off my to-do list is always fun!

I turned @helper Cheeseburger Macaroni, a pound of ground beef and simple toppings into a Loaded Cheeseburger Bar with fresh shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and onions.

Helper helps you feed your family for less while making it easy to create a delicious, comforting dinner in under 20 minutes. I love that everyone can make it their way and build their own bowl!

  • No gatekeeping here… this is my #1 planner tip for middle school. ✏️📓

I’m teaching my daughter how to actually use a planner this year, and @pilotpenusa FriXion Vibe Erasable Pens are the MUST HAVE. Because assignments, tests, activities and plans are going to change and I don’t want her planner covered in confusing, crossed-out dates. 😂

I also love that she can choose her colors based on her vibe. We’re using ZenFocus for schoolwork and assignments and DreamGlow for goals, creative ideas and the things she’s excited about this year. 💚💙💗💜

Middle school is a big enough adjustment. If I can help her feel a little more organized and prepared going into it, I’m calling that a win.

  • Save this for your next couples getaway near Houston 🤍✨

If you’re looking for a relaxing Galveston, Texas resort with a little luxury, put The San Luis Resort on your list. 

From the gorgeous Texas coast views and poolside cabana (the fruit + champagne were such a nice touch 🥂) to an amazing poolside lunch, it was the perfect way to slow down and enjoy some time together.

We spent the evening at Grotto + grabbed gelato, started the next morning with an incredible breakfast buffet at Blake’s Bistro, and finished our getaway with a couples massage at the spa. 🧖‍♀️✨

A beautiful resort, good food, time to unwind, and quality time together… honestly, what more could you ask for? ❤️

  • If you’re heading to @homedepot anytime soon… SAVE THIS! 👀🧡 I found SO many good home finds on my trip to Atlanta for Home Depot Unmatched, and these made the list!

✨ My favorite: this fan! Our old one was putting out basically ZERO air, and this one has completely changed the game. It’s functional AND so chic… now I want to replace every bedroom fan in our house 😂

🔥 Kevin’s favorite: the grill — and yes, it has a SEAR ZONE!

The RYOBI detail scrubber kit is another must-have (seriously, cleaning just got a whole lot easier), plus the clamp fan kit and so many other smart home finds you’ll want to see.

🧡 Comment SHOP and I’ll send you the links!

  • #ad Back-to-school is here, and my food stash is ready! 📚🎒 From quick breakfasts and grab and go options to snack breaks, after school treats and an easier cleanup, I’m keeping these favorites on hand to help make busy school days a little easier.

🥞 quick breakfast: @belgianboys Bite Sized Waffles and Pumpkin Spice Bite Sized Pancakes are easy to warm up for busy mornings, and pro tip - the waffles are delicious warmed up in the air fryer for a little crisp.

🎒 on-the-go: @katefarms Kids Nutrition Shakes are one of those things I like having ready for the mornings when we’re rushing out the door. They come in Chocolate, Vanilla and Strawberry, so there are a few options to choose from.

🍑 snack breaks: @sunsweetgrowersinc PlumGood Digestive & Defense Plum Juice is a crisp, refreshing option with fiber, zinc and vitamin C, plus the individually wrapped Sunsweet Ones are easy to grab for snacking or lunches. And right now, you can get $2 off your next purchase!

🍩 after-school treat: @bakeful_eats Pink Sprinkle Mini Donuts and Confetti Mini Brownies are soft, fun and made with simple, quality ingredients. They’re also 25% less sugar than traditional mini donuts/brownies, and there’s currently a BOGO offer at Target!

🍦 after-dinner favorite: @bubbies Churro, Strawberry and Cookies & Cream Mochi make the perfect little sweet treat. I think the hardest part is deciding which flavor to pick!

🍽️ less cleanup: @solocup AnyDay Plates + Cups are strong, convenient and grease-proof, making them an easy addition to busy days when I’d rather spend less time cleaning up and more time with the family.

Breakfast, snacks, treats and everything in between… We’re totally prepared for back-to-school! 🙌
