week 35.


Every day I can be comfy in my gray sweats is a good day.

Hey there!  So really, when I even think about being 35 weeks it kind of hits me like a sack of bricks.  I am almost done.  I'm petrified and excited and hurting and laughing all at the same time.  All of these emotions and feeling and everything happens all at once.  Pregnancy, in a nutshell.  I've never been more excited to meet this little girl in my entire life, and I know that I love her even more with each day that passes.  Even when she uses my ribs as a dance floor at 4AM.


A few thing lately about this week- I received a Boppy pillow for baby at the last baby shower.  What is great about this thing is that even though I guess it's for baby, I have been using it to try and sleep and ease the pain I've been having in my hips.  Resourceful!  We also had to install the wall AC unit because of those 90 degree days that quickly (thanks, Illinois) became 30 degree days.  I don't even know what to think anymore about our weather.  We left it in though, because I'm hoping it starts to warm up again.

I also got these awesome new cereal bowls at Target because I love Target and I love cereal.  It's disgusting how much cereal I go through a day.  I think I could honestly eat cereal for every meal, every day of my life. It's the perfect snack!  So much variety.  That has been my number one consistent pregnancy craving for these past eight and a half months.  Man... if we don't have cereal or milk in the house... watch out.

bump : week 23

The sub-zero weather has kept us indoors, but it hasn't kept us from having the most amount of fun possible.  I've been enjoying hot cups of tea served with teaspoons of sugar and condensed milk, curling up with my favorite blanket and enjoying the tap-tap, nudge-nudge of the littlest De La Rosa.  Though I find myself playing catch up yet again (I'm 24 weeks!) I'm not complaining in the least bit.  I've had this little family of mine all to myself for a full four days with no work, no emails, no agenda and no pressure.   Ahhhhh... happy winter celebration, little baby. PS- did you know Erick finally launched his website ?  It's up, it's responsive, and it's gorgeous. I'm a proud muma bear.

bump : week 22

I've said it before, but if I could pack up and move my entire family straight into the By The Barkers studio space, I would. Absolute heaven! As for our little one, he or she has been giving me strong, swift kicks - especially around bed time.  Waves and ripples dance across my belly as I lay in bed waiting, watching.  I'll admit, it's been difficult for Erick and I since we've decided to keep things a surprise as far as the gender.  We were both so used to the feeling of knowing with Sofia that it's made this pregnancy a completely unique experience.  My intuition keeps swaying back and forth wondering if this little one is a boy or girl, and judging by the way that I look, feel and eat, my best guess is that we have another little lady on the way. (Though, if you ask Sofia, she's already told us she thinks baby is a "bruh-der")  !!! Mamas out there, was your intuition right? Any tell-tale signs or...
