• I'm pretty sure I'm being slowly strangled to death by my sports bra, but having to fight my way out of it to change seems pretty time consuming.

• I got a really bad shellac job done today and my nails look blotchy. They offered to re-do them, but I'm annoyed to have to find another 30 minutes to have that done before we leave. I also am annoyed at myself for complaining about my nails. Seriously, Heather?!

• New favorite recipe alert: Vegan Creamy Tomato Soup that can be made in a blender! It is too easy not to make and you end up with an entire blender full. I used it as part of lunch all week:

Ingredients:
1 clove Garlic (peeled)
1 Shallot (peeled)
2 – 28 oz cans Peeled Whole Tomatoes
1 cup Milk
1 tablespoon fresh Thyme (or 1 tsp dried)
1 tablespoon Celery Seed
2 tablespoons of EV Olive Oil (plus additional for finishing, optional)
Salt and Pepper (to taste)

Instructions:
1. Place all the ingredients in a blender
2. Blend until smooth
3. Heat up and serve

• Belly support band review- it's not uncomfortable and when worn tight enough (I had to have a friend help get me in...) it really does relieve some back pressure and felt fine during a couple of my runs this week. I got a medium and think it will work better as by bump gets larger.

• Baby got a new carseat this week care of D! Our old Graco looks like...well, honestly, it looks bad enough that I don't even think I'm going to end up donating it. Daddy swooped in and C is going to be stylin' in her new ride. He even picked it out.

• Note to my military friends: Ask your husband for favors or tell him about things you "need" while they are deployed. His willingness to contribute is off the charts...and has me questioning what else I should bring up. Kidding...except not really. I might "need" a massage...

 

• This poor baby has the hiccups SO often. Let's just say I can confirm she is head down because I can feel them in my pelvis. It's lower than with Grace and I have a feeling I'm in for it in the next few weeks when she drops. Fun times. 
 
 

Thats it for now! Heading to Florida in the morning and have a ton that I have been procrastinating on that needs to get done before we leave. Hope you all have great weekends and I'll see you Tuesday with a 31 Week post and a weekend update!

 

xo,
