The Johnsons: December 2013

Hello third trimester! Where the heck is the time going?

Pregnancy is continuing without any bumps, which is good! I had another appointment this week at the maternity clinic (making this the 8th doctor I have seen throughout my pregnancy...crazy!), the head was down, and heart beat was strong! So with the head down, I get to feel the constant pressure of a small little melon sitting on my bladder. Oh Joy. The baby is moving around like CRAZY everyday...some days I swear she is practicing her ninja moves with all the kicking and flipping I feel. Each day I am feeling a little more tired and each night I find it a little harder to get comfortable. Other than those things and being hungry all the time...that's all I really have to report!

Travis and I are looking for some much needed time off at Christmas to be around family and not worry about school and work! Most days we hardly see each other...busy busy busy! I also can't wait to meet my new niece Eliza!

I FINALLY was able to find a stroller/carseat combo that fit all of my criteria, and I cannot wait for it to arrive...it sounds like a pretty slick system. (Aside from the fact I couldn't get it in all black..."tidal wave" accents will have to do! Plus it was on sale when I came across it...so I had to buy it ASAP!) I won't lie...it took me a solid hour to set it up and read through all the instructions. But I love it already and can't wait to fill it with a cute little baby!

Also, it was my 21st birthday on the 16th of this month! Birthdays are always fun...but this year was a little different! I ended up working a 12 hour shift AND missed the Movie Mill Christmas party for the first time in my life. I was actually quite upset about this! But after work my wonderful husband had the biggest bunch of red roses for me and we went out for dessert. It was low key, but I am always happy for the time I get to spend with Travis. (And I know those days are going to be limited soon with the chaos of a new baby!)
This is what I got myself for my birthday:

While walking the half a block from my car into the hospital I slipped on the ice and fell. Ouch. While I was trying to stand back up, I fell again. So my 21st year in life started off really smoothly. I am sure someone got quite the laugh if they saw me. Luckily I only fell on my knee and then my butt. It could have been a lot worse. Freaking hurts so bad!

One more thing...in my last post I said that I missed a week of weekly picture updates and blamed it on pregnancy brain...well the truth is I didn't forget! I just underestimated how clueless I am some days! So Here are a few picture updates of my belly:
