Maternity clothes? they should make maternity shoes!! nothing fits!!!

Sleep: going ok... hating this stuffy nose I have! yuck!

Best moment of the week: We went to Las Vegas last week for my dad's birthday and saw Garth Brooks (one of his last shows in Vegas).  The concert was awesome, my dad loved it (got the good daughter award for that one! LOL) and won some money as well!

Worst moment of the week: There were these guys on our flight out to Vegas that were in LOVE with themselves, especially the one... I wanted to tell him to pull his lip over his head and swallow... and what do you know... they were on our flight back too sitting right by us again!! UGH!!!!

Miss anything? MY FEET & ANKLES! Shoes don't fit and kankles have set in... yuck!

Movement: Everyday all day :)

Food cravings: nothing lately

Wedding rings on or off? Still on :)

28 Weeks...




How far along? 28 weeks, 6 days

Weight gain: Nada...none :)

Baby Weighs: around 2.9lbs

Maternity clothes? Getting sick of them and wearing the same thing over and over!

Sleep: A little better now that I basically wrestle with my body pillow when I switch sides and my cold is finally subsiding so I'm able to breath a little better.

Best moment of the week: First snow fall came on Tuesday :) And my parent's cabin was set on Monday so that was neat to watch get done!

Worst moment of the week: Went to have Chesney's stitches taken out from his surgery, about 2 hours later his whole incision opened up and I had a kitchen floor with fluid/blood all over it and freaking out.  Thankfully our farm vet was at the farm, he came and packed the wound with gauze and then Cody took Chesney to Grassland Vet in Granton to get fixed up but now he has more stitches and drains now as well.  When our vet and Cody got to the house I had to leave the room, not because I was queazy but because I needed to go ball my head off for 5 mins... Oh I love my dog :)

Miss anything? Is it bad to say alcohol? After the day I had yesterday, I could've really used a glass (or bottle) of wine.

Movement: Everyday all day :)

Food cravings: Alfredo lately... have had it twice in a week now... lol

Wedding rings on or off? Still on :)

Happy or moody most of the time? Happy but nervous now that we're in the countdown to baby!

Looking forward to: May 18, 2013... Kenny Chesney... Miller Park... YES!!!!! (Mom, mark your calendar for babysitting!)

2012 Puntin' Party!

Every year, my Aunt Tamie throws her annual Puntin' Party at her house for Halloween.  It's a rather FUN event because we go to her house, carve puntin's (pumpkins), eat lots of goodies and have a bon fire.  She goes all out and decorates her whole garage, does some interesting foods and has activities for the little kids as well.  She also judges the carved puntin's and costumes as well and has prizes.  Anyways, this past weekend was her Puntin' Party and here are a few images from it.  Looking forward to next year's party already! Thanks Aunt Tam!!!


Cat Litter Dessert... I made this... isn't it awesome??

Jello Worms! Don't they look real?? Thank you Pinterest!

Mummy cakes :)

This was my costume for the night

I carved this puntin'... only took me about 2.5 hours to do but it won for the best carved puntin' for the adults

My cousin Amanda carves this puntin' every year for our cousin Meghan and then we take it up to the cemetery for her... we call him Charlie :)

We ain't afraid of no ghost! Hehe! Family tradition to take Meghan her puntin'!





Baby H in 3D/4D

We had a 3D ultrasound last week Thursday at Stork Vision in Eau Claire :) Baby H was very content and did not want to wake up and kept hiding behind things so we didn't get the best images so we are going to revisit Stork Vision in a couple weeks to see if Baby H will cooperate more... (yes, the Powell is coming out already with the stubbornness! LOL) But here are a few images we did get. Enjoy!

26 & 27 Weeks...



I'm a little behind so I won't do my 26th week stuff....


How far along? 27 weeks, 3 days

Weight gain: Nada...none :)

Baby Weighs: around 2.5lbs now

Maternity clothes? Finding my fall coats are a little snug now!

Sleep: Sick of laying on my sides!!!! grrrrr!!!! And to add to it... a COLD! Yuck!!!

Best moment of the week: Coming into the 3rd trimester :) 12 weeks to go!

Miss anything? Being able to take cold meds cuz a netty pot just doesn't do it for me!

Movement: Lots of kicks now, baby is head down as well.  Cody claims the baby doesn't like him because each time he puts his hand on my belly to feel kicks it stops kicking! LOL!

Food cravings: You would think with the amount of Vitamin C I get with my gallons of orange juice I wouldn't get sick but I did! Dang it!  Otherwise, nothing new to the cravings.

Wedding rings on or off? Still on :)

Happy or moody most of the time? Happy but getting more tired like the 1st trimester...ugh!

Looking forward to: Counting down the weeks now and mom and dad's cabin will be getting built next week so that's exciting! Also looking forward to my Chesney dog being home cuz he had surgery today and they want to keep him overnight and I miss him like crazy!!
