29 weeks:)

So I am not uploading a pic this week because i have decided I will do those every 2 weeks! I dont look much different from last week anyway lol. I do want to do a survey however, because this week has really brought a lot of changes and I want to document them. This third trimester is sure beginning to throw me for a loop! I am hungry constantly, have swollen achy calves, and braxton hicks contractions! Should I mention its only been one week of the third tri?!! Ha I am trying to be positive and hope it gets better cause it hasn't been all that bad it just feels like I am actually pregnant now lol. I refuse to give up my daily walks and being active because I enjoy it to much and also because I hear it helps with the aches and pains. I also try and buy only healthy snacks at the store because even if I am having to snack constantly I would still like to be somewhat healthy:)! 2 more weeks until Kelin starts school and he is super excited. I have sure appreciated all of his help since he has been home this break!  He lets me lay down and prop up my feet whenever I am contracting or experiencing crampy calves. We went on campus yesterday and got all of his books for this semester! He is really excited for all of his classes. Kennedy is growing faster than ever and will be 22 months on the 4th of Sept! She is going to be the best big sister. She is such a sweetheart and is constantly trying to help me with all of my daily "chores". I sure do love my little growing family!

                      In other news we are still just plugging along enjoying the nice Rexburg summer weather! About 3 more week until Kelin starts school. Where has the break gone? I love that he is home right now and that we all get to spend time together because he's normally crazy busy during school! September is next Saturday, and to me this is when Fall officially starts!!! I have been waiting for Fall for 5 months! Fall is my absolute favorite time of the year in Rexburg! The weather is perfect and you get to wear all of the cute Fall clothes:)! Too bad it doesnt last long enough, But while its here I LOVE every second. Also Halloween is in the Fall and I am really looking forward to taking Kennedy trick or treating. Oh and I am having a baby in the Fall..ya lots of exciting things! Kennedy and I even made choc chip pumpkin muffins the other day to start the season off right:)! Kennedy has loved pumpkin ever since she has been in the womb, Whenever I would eat any sort of pumpkin treat that girl would bounce around in my tummy as happy as can be, Kensington hasn't really shown any interest in any particular food yet. She just moves around a lot and kicks constantly. She is the sweetest little thing! Soo grateful and excited to have her in our family! Life if fabulous! Oh and here is a pic of the cutest girl in the world today at the park:) How is she almost 22 months old?!

26 weeks!

               So I am still a week behind haha tomorrow I am 27 weeks but I will catch up eventually. I cant believe how fast this pregnancy is flying by! Everything is going great and this pregnancy has been a breeze so far. I cant believe that in one week I will be in my third trimester! Totally crazy!! I am getting pretty excited/nervous about getting everything ready for baby Kensington's arrival. That includes double jogging stroller, white dresser, and twin bed/bedding for Kennedy. I have been looking and finding pretty good deals on those things so we plan on having everything by the end of this month. Kelin starts school in September so we want to have everything mostly done so he can focus on school. Nesting is kicking in full gear for me and I am planning on deep cleaning Kennedy's room and closet this week! Kensington might start out sleeping in our room but the girls will eventually share a room so I want to get everything all ready.
