29 Week Pregnancy Update and Favorite Dress

Week 29 seemed to fly by but definitely not without excitement.  I passed my glucose tolerance test!!  I went in for my prenatal appointment and that was my only question for my midwife.  She didn't even hesitate and said my numbers all looked great! That literally made my day! As far as my weight, I have gained 15 total, weighing in at 130 lb.  I didn't seem to gain any weight last couple weeks.  My midwife advised me that I will probably gain about 10 more pounds in my last trimester and also might deliver early like I did with Masha. We shall see what happens.  I now have to go in every 2 weeks instead of 4. 

Overall I feel great.  Baby is super active and kicks quite a bit.  I feel myself running out of breath faster though.  Sometimes I have to tell myself to slow down.  I have to sleep with two pillows behind me because I still occasionally have acid reflux, but the milk has been a lifesaver!

Here is a few photos of one of my favorite dresses:

Hats...

I adore hats! When I was going through my hair loss stage, I learned that they were my best friend, as well as scarfs.  Over the years, I have grown quite the collection and love to incorporate them into my outfit.  I like to pick up a few hats every year that catch my eye.  I find amazing deals at Nordstrom Rack and EbayJ Crew  has classic hats that I tend to wear often.  What are your favorite type of hats?

Here are my main picks:




Thanks for stopping by! Have a great weekend.

26-28 Weeks Pregnancy Update & Life Lately

Weeks 26-28 flew by!  I am finally in my third trimester.  Honestly there hasn't been significant changes from last couple weeks.  The only thing I noticed was that I run out of breath faster.  Probably because it is super hot and humid some days.  And I sometimes have heart burn.  I noticed drinking a glass of warm milk has helped me.  I checked a few days ago, and I currently weigh 132.  My bump is quite noticeable bigger though.  My shirts/dresses are filling up nicely.  One thing I am not loving is my memory.  I literally have to write everything down because I am quite forgetful.  Did anyone else experience this during pregnancy?

I had my glucose tolerance test and thank goodness it is over with.  My hubs came with me and was a major support.  I love how he always will make room in his busy schedule for me if I need him. I have my prenatal appointment tomorrow so it will be interesting to see my results.

Enjoying my days with my little one and friends.  Anytime I have a free moment, I love spending it with family.  I love our evening walks.  Masha always manages to notice every rabbit and chases them down.  She is definitely a funny one!

Here are a few photos from the last couple weeks:

Sunglasses Galore

Anyone that knows me, can vouch that I have a slight obsession with sunnies. It's one of those accessories that I can't seem to go without especially living in Florida where the sun is always blazing.

Here are a few that I own and adore! And a few that are on my wish list. Do you have any favorites?  My go to sunnies are the Tom Ford Nikita and Prada Round Baroque.   I also love all my Ray Bans especially the aviators.  What are some of your go to sunglasses?





Have a great weekend!
