After the baby shower that my sister and 2 cousins threw for me, I got all of her clothes together and took all of the tags off of them (which took about 3 hours!) but I couldn't put them in her dresser because I still had to stain it to match the crib so for about a week her clothes just sat in her crib folded in a bunch of piles. This past weekend my mom and I were 2 women on a mission! It was the most exhausting weekend ever but so worth it in the end! Saturday we went to Target to get some birthday presents for some family members, then to lunch, then to Lowe's and picked up the stain, sanding stuff including some masks so I wouldn't inhale any of the stain or dust, paint brushes, some shelves for Theresa's room, and some new handles for her dresser. We got home that evening and took the dresser and it's drawers outside and began sanding away! We sanded and put one coat of stain on before calling it quits. That night I was woken up by shooting pains from my ankles to my knees! It was horrible! I obviously did way too much but with a little rest I was ready for Sunday. That morning before it got too hot, we went out and put the second coat of stain on the dresser and then off we went! We ran a whole bunch of errands that took about 4 or 5 hours. When we got home the dresser was dry and ready to be put together! We put the handles on and the drawer liner (which is lily scented) in and put it in her room! It looks like a brand new dresser...which it's not...it's actually 22 years old! It was my baby dresser! We are very proud of ourselves! Here's a pic....it used to be a very light tan color and the handles were like a gold color. We forgot to take a before pic!! :(
Monday I had another baby shower that my friend Ashley from Outback (where I used to work) threw for me! It was such an intimate, elegant shower! We played some great games that were absolutely hilarious and I got a whole bunch of great stuff. Ashley did so much for me! I am so lucky to have her in my life!

The beautiful dress and shoes that Ashley bought for Theresa!Thursday, July 16, I had my 32 week doctor's appointment. Everything was great! I'm 32 centimeters from the top of my belly to the bottom which is exactly where I am supposed to be. Theresa is in position, head down and feet up! Her heart rate was 160 which is great! I keep forgetting to let y'all know how much weight I've been gaining this whole pregnancy! So, my first appointment when I was 7 weeks pregnant I weighed 145 lbs. At 11 weeks I was 148 lbs. At 15 weeks I was 152 lbs. At 20 weeks I was 156 lbs. At 24 weeks I was 160 lbs. At 28 weeks I was 168 lbs!! I was only supposed to gain 4 pounds that month!! It's okay as long as I don't do it again! And at my 32 week appointment I was 173 lbs. So far I've gained a total of 28 lbs! So now that I am caught up I will make sure to keep y'all posted the rest of the way! My next appointment is August 6, I will be 35 weeks pregnant! At this appointment he starts doing the exams to see if I am dilating!! :)
Here's my belly pic and 32 week ticker!! Only one more box to go!!! AHH!!
