30 Weeks!

I can't believe I'm here! It seems like just yesterday I was getting that plus sign on my pregnancy test! With 10 weeks/68 days to go, I am more anxious then ever to meet my daughter! I think about her birthday constantly and how much greater life will be once she arrives! I just cannot wait!
 Not a lot has changed for me symptom wise this week besides my growing belly, but for Annalise that's a different story. This week she's the size of a cantaloupe about 17 inches long and just over 3 pounds. Her brain is continuing development this week by getting bigger and forming grooves, wrinkles, and indentations. She is now able to regulate her body temperature somewhat.

Me at 30 weeks! Definitely looking pregnant now!

Andy and I had a very interesting week this week. We celebrated Indy's first birthday, had two "snow" storms, and finished up buying the major things for Annalise's room. We decided to not wait until after my baby shower to buy the big things for her room. I'll be 34 weeks at my shower and babies in my family have been known to show up anywhere between 36 and 38 weeks so we (mostly me) really want her room done before then...just in case. Plus...who buys a crib mattress as a baby shower gift?? I wouldn't and do not expect anyone else to either. So yesterday, with coupons in tow we headed out to Buy Buy Baby and Babies R Us to order her bedding and purchase her crib mattress. It is all starting to come together!
I also pulled off an awesome diaper and wipe purchase yesterday at CVS using coupons! Probably the best one yet! I had $5 in CVS care bucks from a previous diet coke purchase. I also had a $2 off coupon when you buy $10 or more Huggies products from CVS, a $2 off any Huggies diaper coupon, and a .50 off any Huggies wipes. So I bought a pack of 64 wipes for $3.29 and a pack of 32 diapers on sale for $7.99 total with tax was $12.07 and total after extra care bucks was $1.96 and $2.67 after tax! I felt pretty good about that one!
