32 weeks

32 weeks and counting...


I still feel pretty good and I'm still sleeping well. I am starting to get a little uncomfortable. I'm nervous because it's starting to warm up and I'm afraid of swelling. Hopefully, I won't too bad. I'm still having some indigestion, which is NOT FUN at all, but it's all worth it. Can't wait to meet our baby boy!



Everything worked out after all...

Last week, I checked my credit card statement and realized there was a charge from JCPenney, which was odd because I canceled the order after they told me my items were no longer available. So, I called JCPenney and they said you have two pieces of furniture at the store ready for pick up, has no one called you? Ugh.....NO, no one has called me. I explained to the lady what happened a week earlier when I called about the furniture, so she started looking around and ended up finding the piece that was missing, which was the crib. So, it was shipped to the store and we are getting it today! Yay! Jade and I went to pick up the other two pieces of furniture on Friday and Jade has already put them together. All we have left is the crib. Jade is painting the trim tonight in the baby's nursery and we are getting new carpet in there tomorrow or Thursday. By this weekend, it will actually look like a nursery. So excited! We already have the curtains, bedding and mobile thanks to my parents, Jade's parents and Auntie Deb and Uncle Ricky. I have also ordered the lamp, changing pad cover and some pictures for the wall. They should all be here within the week. It's all coming together.

Happy Birthday to the Siggers bunch!



As most of you know, all of my Daddy's children were born in March. So, we got together this past weekend to celebrate. Daddy grilled hamburgers and cooked a Boston butt with all the trimmings. Mama got us a cake with all of our names on it. Unfortunately, my brother Al had to work and couldn't make it. We missed you Alvin! Thank you Daddy and Mama for all you do for us! We love you!

Earlier that day, Jade and I had a yard sale. We have been trying to get everything cleaned out before the baby gets here. We had a pretty good bit of stuff but not as much as usual, so I was a little nervous that we wouldn't make anything. My goal was about $200 and we ended up making $250, so I was pleased!

Happy Birthday to my WONDERFUL Grandparents!


I know it's a little late but I would like to wish my Papaw and Mamaw and very Happy Birthday. Mamaw celebrated her 86th birthday on February 18th and Papaw celebrated his 88th birthday on February 26th. I am so thankful I have had all of my grandparents for this long. We went to Cracker Barrel to eat for their birthdays. It was a lot of fun to get together with all the Bells.


Also, we got some very exciting news from my brother Tanner and his wife Jennifer....I'M GOING TO BE AN AUNT!!! That's right! Tanner and Jennifer are expecting their first child in October. I am so excited especially because my little one will have someone to grow up with and play with. Such a blessing.

Congrats Tanner and Jennifer! I love you both so much!!

30 weeks

10 more weeks to go!! I feel like I'm getting bigger by the day! Everything is going just fine. I have been having some problems with indigestion, but that's about it at this point. I'm still sleeping good and I hope that continues for as long as it can.

Not a Happy Camper

So, today I called JCPenney to check on the baby's furniture to see if it had been shipped because when I called last week when it was supposed to be shipped out, it wasn't. Today, when I called they told me that the furniture was no longer available. NO LONGER AVAILABLE!!!! Can you believe that? No one even bothered to call and let me know so now I have to start all over. The only problem is my time is more limited now. I only have 10 more weeks to go, give or take a couple. So, needless to say, today has NOT been my day. Well, gotta get back to shopping for new furniture...

29 Week Check-up

I started my two week appointments this week. It was a very short visit. This was the first appointment I've went to alone. No big deal, it only lasted 15 minutes. I got to hear his heartbeat, the ultrasound tech said he was facing into me so his back was turned to the camera. They checked my weight and measured me and I'm measuring right along with my week. I've gained 10 lbs so far, but I feel like I'm getting bigger by the day.

The weirdest thing happened the other day. I got home from work and laid down for a few minutes because I was so tired and I was laying on my right side. All of a sudden, I got really uncomfortable and I stood up and looked down at my belly and the right side of it was poking out. It was so freaky! So, I went to find Jade and showed him and he thought it was the neatest thing. I guess the baby's head or butt was poking out, but it was very uncomfortable! Anyway, just thought I would share that. Have a great weekend!
