Impromptu Family Pics

My father-in-law just so happens to be a photographer and while we were visiting them over the weekend we took amazing pictures. 

This one is my absolute favorite. 

Ryan hung Roman upside down because he was SO over it (Romy likes being upside down). 

Zach was mad, not sure why. 

Maddie was very proud of her Ariel little people toy.

Feeling HUGE. 

Heartburn like a mofo. 

Thirty Weeks

Craving: Nothing... loss of appetite

Feeling: HUGE

Found out I'm incredibly anemic and have since started iron pills - it's already helping improve my energy Yay!

Baby's moving around like a little alien in there. 

Missing: Margaritas

I also have symphysis pubis dysfunction. Pelvis. hurts. lots. 

Can't believe we're so close to meeting our little man!

Merry Christmas!

Hope everyone had an amazing Christmas!

The kids all had the best Christmas EVER (their words). They have two sets of amazing grandparents who made sure this would be a great Christmas for them, even with everything that has happened this year. 

This is my favorite picture from Christmas morning. It was the very first picture of the day. 

28 Weeks

This was taken about two weeks ago, when I was 28 weeks. Ryan is an awesome amateur photog!

28 Weeks

I was craving Quiznos Chicken Carbonara 

Feeling the waking/sleep patterns of my little guy

e.x.h.a.u.s.t.e.d.

And got to breathe a little sigh of relief that I hit the "safe" mark. 

24 Weeks

Ryan was trying new angles this week. I think I'll stick to the old one. :)

Baby Boy Matteson!

20 Weeks

Well, I had an "official due date change" at my last doctor's appointment. Little peanut has been measuring a week ahead the entire pregnancy so they just went ahead and bumped it up.

Here is my 20 WEEK picture! Halfway baby!!!

I drew a very strange banana. Haha. 

18 Weeks

Here is my official 18 week photo! I'm starting to feel baby move more and more (and baby likes to kick my bladder lol). 

Baby is the size of a mango

Craving: salt & vinegar chips. Pepsi, and lo mein. Why can't I crave something healthy?!

Missing: My energy

Wishing: I could hang out in my pajamas all day, every day. 

Can't believe I'm almost halfway there!
