I am officially in my third trimester!  I cannot believe how fast time is going!  Did you ever feel like you needed to get so much done in this stage?  I feel like this is nesting mode right? haha.  Well I am definitely in nesting mode.  I have so much I want to get done and feeling slightly overwhelmed.  I feel like I want to rip apart my house and organize every little thing, and buy more decor, clean the carpets and deep clean.   I have finally realized you can’t do it all at once so I made a list of what I want done, and each week do one of those things on your list to mark off.  If I over do it I can definitely tell in my back that day, and it is not a good feeling.  Lets be real, you can’t really do most the things you were able to do all in one day without really hurting yourself and the baby.  Plus not to mention you are super tired and worn out from even vacuuming your house haha.   So it is important to make sure that you don’t over do it and to pick and chose what you need done that day, and slowly get it marked off your list.  So make time for yourself to relax too, you are growing a little miracle in there that is taking up most of your energy everyday.  So mamas try not to feel overwhelmed and do little by little.  Show your list to your husband or boyfriend and hope he will help you get it done haha.  No but really have him help you with your to do’s. Or have your mom, friend or sister help you.  But Most importantly make sure you treat yourself to ice cream at the end of your day and kick your feet up and relax!  This isn’t an easy journey, and I have realized that I can’t do everything at once like I used to do before!

How CUTE is this dress?  I am obsessed.  One thing I do need to tell you about this dress is that it is a little see through on the bottom area.  So I have worn nude maternity spanx that I got HERE, and they cover it up just fine.  If you aren’t pregnant there are some HERE and HERE.  Spanx are definitely a good thing to have.  They smooth out everything and suck it all in haha :).  And of course good to have when you have those see through pieces.  I do LOVE this dress and I love how its angled giving it a more elegant look.  It also comes in royal blue and black.

Have a great day!

After a long holiday weekend it is not so much fun coming back to work, but got to stay positive!  Lots of fun things to look forward to.  We still have lots left of the Summer time.   I hope you guys had a fun weekend!  Mine was spent with my hubs in Park City at the Hyatt at Canyons resort in Park City.  It was so much fun.  Definitely must visit if you haven’t been there!  Probably one of my favorite weekends with my husbands so far.  We went hiking, and relaxed and ate some delicious food, walked around a lot.  It was super hot the first day, but the last 2 were much cooler, and that was nice for preggers here.  For the first time my back is super sore and hurts in almost every position, but laying down.  My feet are starting to become swollen and sore.  I am 27 weeks this week which marks the start of my third trimester.  My belly has FINALLY made its appearance, and its going to stay the same size this time.  My baby grew double in size this month which is crazy!  I think thats why I am getting a taste of the discomfort.  On the plus side it is not always like that, it is just when I am really active that day, and nothing a bubble bath can’t help with.  What I have realized is that when you are pregnant you must take it easy and listen to your body.  It has been really hard for me to realize and take in because I am always very active and like to get stuff done throughout my day, but this pregnant body isn’t letting me do all of that.  I have to pick and chose what I can get done in a day now.   So I have learned to listen and just take it easy, and lay down and put my feet up when I need to, maybe take a little nap if I can.  It’s really important to when you are growing a human!

So, this top let me just tell you is the biggest life saver.  It covers your mid section fully if that is what you are wanting during pregnancy and after.  I want this top in every color!  Lucky us it is 40% off!  They have the prettiest colors too.  I love how it is pleated.  It has been one of my favorites during pregnancy.

Have a good day!
