I can’t believe it is already September! Next month this little boy will make me a mama and I couldn’t be more excited! My work schedule has finally slowed down a tiny bit (two days on and one day off!) and I have been going to the gym every day that I’m not working. I wanted to start a Whole30 today, and did GREAT with breakfast – I even had my coffee black! But…I had made caramel filled chocolate chip cookies and we still had some leftover which ended up being our lunch…WHOOPS! Tomorrow is a new day.

This week I developed the most itchy belly EVER! About 1/150 women, 70% who are carrying boys, develop what is called PUPPP – short for Pruritic Urticarial Papules and Plaques in Pregnancy. Say that ten times fast! It is not fun, let me tell you!  There isn’t much to do about it since most medications are off-limits in pregnancy, but the good news is it typically goes away just after delivery!

With just a handful of weeks to go nesting is in full effect – we are putting the final touches on the nursery and I have been wanting to clean like a maniac! We are getting SO excited!

Eeeeeekkkkkkkk!

Dress compliments of PinkBlush! It will be great for nursing too – click on my pic to purchase!
