I can't believe it's already August. This summer is flying by!!! I have been using instagram pretty much daily to document this awesome summer. It isn't very often that Seattle gets a summer as hot and rain-free as this one...of course it just happens to be when I'm pregnant, but I'm still trying to appreciate every minute! Today I'm sharing some recent instagrams, mostly from the month of July.
Of course I've been documenting my ever-growing belly on instagram. The above photos are from week 28, 33, 30 and 32. Somehow I feel that at week 30 I got really huge, but I haven't changed that much since. My belly is still pretty compact (thanks to my awesome abs...thank you!) A couple of the photos above were taken right before yoga. I've been loving prenatal yoga this summer.
It's been interesting to see how our two cats have been responding to all the changes in our house. Leo can hardly fit on my lap now...which is tragic since its his favorite place! One day I found Flash inside our cradle. He is the cat that has been the most curious about all the baby paraphernalia that is collecting in her room. That last photo above is me drinking raspberry leaf tea...supposed to be great for uterus health, and its yummy!
Above, you will see a few images from some recent dates that I've been on with Matt. We have had fun getting out for yummy treats. Molly Moon's is our FAVORITE ice cream place. Its even worth the 20+ minute wait in line outside. The apple pie dessert is from Joey. Matt & I went there one Saturday night with another couple that got to leave their kids at home with grandparents. So fun to go on a double date without kids!! We are appreciating these no-kid moments.
A few random photos above: 1/My new Studio Calico stamp storage in a berry basket. I love that I unwrapped them all which makes them easier to use! 2/My boss brought the most beautiful bouquet to my baby shower...and it lasted all week! You can also see our little dinner menu in this photo...we are trying to eat at home mostly. 3/A glossy box arrived. My first blog giveaway win!! 4/A scrapbooking photo. I've actually been scrapbooking lots!
Above photos from Sarah's wedding weekend: 1/lovely cake that Renae & I helped decorate. 2/Hers & hers coffees. Renae & I got to hang out all weekend at her Mom's place...which was awesome! 3/A nice belly photo taken on the drive to Spokane. 4/My besties who stole my iphone and camera.
These are the most recent instagram photos, all taken this weekend. 1/A selfie taken at work without any make up on Friday. I had hardly slept the night before and had to be at work at 7am. 2/A little trip into Leavenworth for ice cream 3/ We had SO MUCH FUN this weekend camping with Matt's extended family in the Leavenworth area. We swam, floated the river, ate yummy food and caught up with all Matt's cousins. 4/Monday morning: Walked Greenlake!! The first time in two months. It was very slow, and very hard, but I did it!! Its hard to believe that something so easy is now so difficult for me. I guess the 30+ extra pounds really does make a difference!
Thanks for taking the time to glance through these photos for a recap of my summer. I will keep instragramming like crazy, for sure! If you haven't followed me yet, then you should! My user name is Crazydiamond21. I'm not LeonaLane (that's Renae!) as some of my friends have thought. Hope everyone has a fantastic day and gets some sunshine!
