I can't believe how quickly this pregnancy has flown by. Its nuts that in a few weeks, I'm off work and then another 4 short weeks after that, I'll be meeting Baby A. Yay!
We went to Vegas for our anniversary/last hurrah trip and it was so much fun! Even though I wasn't really gambling or drinking, I had a great time watching everyone lose their dough and get wasted off of free jack and cokes. :) The Bacchanal Buffet was an utter disappointment...Andy and I vowed never to do another buffet and to spend a little extra and get a nice juicy steak. My spreadsheet came into use somewhat since I was searching for specific foods, even though they weren't serving it that day, the chefs were nice enough to accommodate me and special make it for me. Maybe they felt like they needed to feed my baby. ;)
Still have been feeling great aside from the occasional heart burn and I swear I was a mama duck or goose in my past lifetime since I've perfected waddling to an art form...I'm definitely looking the part of the preggo with my ankles starting to swell at night and sounding like a fat person. Anyone can hear me coming from a mile away due to my loud breathing. I've officially turned into a mouth breather and I think I'm "this" close to being kicked out of my bed due to my obscene loud breathing. Hey! At least it's not obscene snoring!! And talk about the vivid dreams! Whoah Nelly~ I've so far dreamed that the baby comes out as a half and half, comes out REALLY dark, but then I realize it's actually a baby monkey...Not gonna read into any of these dreams, but I wake up very perturbed...
Can't wait for maternity leave to start! Gonna catch up on Korean Dramas, American shows, bake, clean and organize for the baby and SLEEP! Woohoo!
I am protruding!!! (and going south lol) Kinda gross, but interesante at the same time...

Week 30 and Shower Weekend
This past Saturday was my baby shower put on by a host of my beloved friends and sister. It was a beautiful event made even more beautiful by good friends getting together to have great conversation and scrumptious food. I definitely felt so showered with love and laughter the time flew by way too fast.
Now that I have officially 10 weeks left, the doctors visits are closer and greater in between weeks along with pee runs and the ability to not be able to eat more than 3 bites of food at a time. Even though I've been cleared of GD, I swear she's gonna be a big baby (knock on wood) and she's taking up all the space inside. So sad since I've been looking forward to indulging at Bacchanal in a couple of weeks, but not sure if she's gonna let me enjoy it 100%. Call me a dork, but I've resorted to making a strategic list in Excel so I don't overeat on the stupid stuff, but really get my money's worth with the seafood and meats. I'm determined not to fill up on carbs and if possible not more than one bite of a dish. Yes, yes...the kids in Africa will smite me if they ever read this post...and God. ;)
Other than the pee runs and tightness of belly, she's been a good baby, giving me all the kick counts that I need, no pimples without even washing my face all the time (keke) and...no hair loss! I really like this part of pregnancy a lot. :) I hope these last 10 weeks will continue to be kind to me...keeping my fingers crossed!
Here are some pics from the shower...
And lastly, here's my week 30 bump. I think my belly is finally starting to get bigger than my b**bs. lol
