37 Week Bumpdate

37 Week Bumpdate

size of the baby: Lettuce– about 18.9+ inches, and probably close to 7+ pounds!

total weight gain: about 24 pounds now.

gender: Little Man

clothes: Leggings and comfy shorts all day everyday! I have about 3 cute tops that fit and besides that i’m in Kevin’s shirts around the house.

movement: He is always on the go. His movements are not only startling now, but actually hurt sometimes.

sleep: I have been sleeping HORRIBLE! I have been waking up at all hours of the night with contractions and cramping that keep me up for hours. I keep thinking “this is it, it might be go time”.. then nope, they will fade out after a few hours. I am really getting tired of it.

missing: normal life! I feel like I am in such a weird waiting period. I feel like he could come any day but then he just doesn’t.

craving: ehh… limeades, ice cream occasionally and sweet things.

symptoms/update: Well, last Thursday night we went to the hospital again because of contractions. I had some movement and other stuff going on, basically I was in labor but only progressed to a certain point. They ended up sending us home and to our doctor the next morning. Our doctor didn’t expect us to make it through the weekend, but we did. Its so crazy. We have no idea how he is hanging in there.

kevin is: excited to meet him now, and much more patient than me! He is being really patient with me as well, I’m slightly cranky a lot of the time.

looking forward to: going into actual labor! I am really tired of constant contractions and pressure. I am so ready!

best moments: um… this hasn’t been the best week with the hospital visit, and Brooke is sick so hopefully he will make his appearance soon and Brooke will be on the mend!

  • #ad #RubbermaidAmbassador Resetting my tween’s bathroom didn’t require a full makeover… just smarter swaps 👏🏻

I found these Rubbermaid bathroom essentials at @Walmart while doing a late-night scroll (because that’s when moms get things DONE 😅), and I love how they instantly made her space more organized and functional.

The Rubbermaid Mesh Pockets Shower Liner has been a game changer for keeping everything organized and the Rubbermaid Instamat™ Tub Mat gives me peace of mind with its non-slip design + easy hang-to-dry feature.

Both are BPA-free, kid-friendly, and designed to stay fresh longer—which means less work for me 💛

Small changes can make a BIG difference.

Such a cute and easy little gift idea for teachers heading into summer break 💛

I paired sunscreen with a beach towel and added the cutest printable tags for a fun end-of-year surprise!

Simple gifts always end up being my favorite🎀✨

  • Being their mom is my greatest privilege 💕 — through the chaos, laughter, exhaustion and pure joy.

Watching these two grow 💐 while growing alongside them has been the sweetest gift.

So grateful for every little thing🤍

Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there. You are seen, appreciated, and doing better than you think 🌷

  • Super excited to watch Brooke step onto the stage for her first dance recital 💃🏽✨

She decided to try something completely new and joined a hip hop class this year!

Definitely outside of her comfort zone — and I couldn’t be more proud of her for sticking with it, growing in confidence, and having fun along the way.

Can’t wait to cheer on our girl today for two performances! 🎤🪩
