Misadventures of the Critically Blonde.... Mommy
Things have changed a lot since I last graced the world wide web with my presence. I now have a 7 month old who is the size of an average ONE year old so that's cool.... He is currently in his crib making all sorts of noises instead of napping but that's OK days like this usually result in picture worthy sleeping position. I also quite my job to stay at home with our giant little bundle of joy. It is the best job I could have asked for and I really don't know how I got to be so lucky. Well actually I do I have an amazing husband who works his butt of so I can live my luxurious Mommy life style full of homemade baby-food and perfume made of spit up milk.... Its fabulous really. Well for now I will leave you with a few pictures for now and the hope that I will return in less than a year...

Baby Watch 2013
So I figured since I haven't been super active on the blog front I would add some pictures of my bump over the past almost 8 months ( I am officially 31 and 1/2 weeks... every day counts). I started out so good and would take pictures every week and then real life set in and none of the pictures looked good and they slowly got farther and farther apart and now my pregnancy updates are usually taken in the bathroom at work because that is the only time that I even remotely look like a human. But anyways here is a picture dump hopefully in order.
I cant even remember being skinny! I felt so huge already though! |
Pretty much the week I started to show is the week I gave up on taking a good picture... Notice from here on out every picture has a weird face in it... and is in a bathroom.... |
She was just trying to figure out how she felt about this little boy... |
Just had to thrown one in of my current baby... she hated it |
19 weeks |
This was 21 weeks I think |
23 Weeks |
25 weeks |
27 weeks |
And this was yesterday at 31 weeks |
Viva Las Vegas
SO I just found this post saved in my drafts and it has a few pictures from the trip from Florida so I figured I would publish it!
Then it was back on the road for hours and hours of driving. Sorry there aren't more pictures of us. The one below is the only half way decent picture. I spent the week with no make up and my hair a mess so any pictures that were taken will never see the light of the internet.
Thankfully Hubby is pretty good at packing so we didn't need a Uhaul. We just pack our truck RIDICULOUSLY full... Beverly Hillbilly's style |
Jon's dad took tons of pictures of the truck as it drove through the many state to get to Nevada. We were looking really classy going down the road let me tell you. |
They were seriously in love. They cuddled or they played like maniacs the whole time. |

Im not sure if you can truly tell what is going on in this picture but in front of me is a plate of spaghetti with a side of mashed potatoes... Oh the cravings of Pregnancy. |
Oh Hey Vegas...
So remember that one time I promised to update my blog with all the exciting events that had happened in my life and then I wrote 2 posts and fell off the face of the earth? Yeah well I am not going to make any extended promises this time.... But I will get you caught up in a few posts.
After graduation ( like literately 2 days later) we packed up our house and headed out west. Let me just tell you... finishing up your degree, hosting hordes of family, selling 70% of your belongings and packing the other 30% all the while growing a child is hard! We went from a fully furnished and cluttered 2 bedroom apartment to a truck in the matter of a week. Thankfully we did not have to make the drive by ourselves Jon's dad flew out for my graduation and then drove one of our cars for us to Nevada. I seriously don't think we could have done it with out him. I don't have tons of pictures of our trek out west because they were all taken on my phone which was stolen...Viva Las Vegas!
In August we got to move in to our own place. I was ridiculously excited just to have all of our stuff out of boxes and bags... It was a little sad to move out on our own again because I had to resume adult life aka cooking and cleaning. Jon's mom was WAY too good to us and cooked every night and would clean up before I even had a chance to think about it... mostly cause I went to bed by like 730.

Our first place was a good one it was really hard to say good bye. |

Here is a view from our " back yard" aka the apartment complex's shrubbery that we use as Ruca's bathroom. |

This is a video I made of the model apartment so when were shopping around we would remember what it looked like. I will try to post pictures of our place all decorated. It is sparse but it feels like home finally. I went into nesting mode the weekend we moved in and I had the place pretty much put together in 2 days. Lets just say it was nice to be able to spread out. We had most of our stuff squished in one bedroom at Jon's moms place.

Peace Out College
Like I said in my last post A LOT has happened lately. Although finding out about Baby V was by far the most exciting news it does not trump my biggest accomplishment as today. I finally got to say good by to UCF!! I am now officially an educated woman ready to take on the world, for like 6 more months then I will be tackling a whole NEW world.
Graduation week was a CRAZY blur filled with family, friends and a lot of packing (more on this in another post). Jon's family flew in from Vegas and it was fabulous. I even got to have a last minuet party to celebrate and say good bye to everyone. My parents are pretty much the most amazing parents ever because they bought me a a brand new Nikon D5200 with 2 new lenses for graduation and I am pretty much as excited as is humanly possible to own it. Jon loves it almost as much as me and took the job of graduation photographer so here are some pictures from my artsy hubby...
