🐶: Snoopy here. Time for a pupdate. It’s been 2 months and the new toy is still here. Mom says he is part of the family, just like me. I don’t know...we don’t seem very much alike to me. He makes WAY more noise than I do. And he’s still missing his waggy tail. If you have one of these toys, when it makes extra loud noises, just lick the little wigglies. Here, I’ll show you how to do it. 👅 #thegoodestboy #aboyandhisdog

🐶: They brought home a new toy I’m not allowed to play with. It makes all sorts of noise...it even squeaks! It smells funny. And it doesn’t taste like the treats I usually get. I know, I licked the fuzzy end. They keep telling me it is my baby brother. I think they’re fibbing. Or, they got his tail docked. I can’t be sure. They do put him in a crate sometimes. 🤔 And then, today, they took me for a car ride and YOU GUYS...I.got.scalped! Dad got a yum yum in a cup on our trip. I ate the white fluff on it. Apparently Dad doesn’t share like Mom because he said it wasn’t my white fluff. But, it’s ok. He didn’t get mad. I’ll update you on the weird toy situation later. 🐾 #bigbrotherstatus #furbabylove #rescuedogsofinstagram #guarddogonduty

We’re getting there! 😁 . We have weekly ultrasounds now. And I had a consult with an anesthesiologist last night. Things are starting to get really real! . Perhaps I haven’t thought past his birth day, but I’m not nervous about being a mommy. . I am, however, very nervous/borderline terrified of the c-section and all the potential complications that could arise (the whole reason we have to have a c-section). . At this point, I just have to acknowledge these things are so much bigger than I am and they are things I cannot control. . I have to let go and have faith that God will protect us. . I have to trust my medical team and their bazillion years of combined knowledge, wisdom, and experience. . I have to breathe. . I know my medical team (the whole slew of them) are monitoring us closely, every step of the way. I know they will do everything in their power to give us a safe (and peaceful) c-section delivery. . And I have faith that I will be holding our precious baby boy soon(-ish). 💙 #highriskpregnancy #thirdtrimester #csectionmama

Weeks 22-27! Finished out the 2nd trimester and checked off another pregnancy milestone. Ready for the third trimester & the homestretch!🤰🏼

Those eyes and that dirty snoot. I sure do love my fluffy shadow! 💙

We haven’t done a very good job of taking our #bumpdate pictures the last few weeks, but we did make sure to save the chalk board from the packers so we could get back to it during the move. . The bump is starting to show in full force now and not just after I eat. 🤰🏼 . Baby boy is movin’ and a groovin’ in my belly now. (He still hasn’t kicked Jimmy yet, though.) He’s a regular ol’ tiny dancer!🕺 . And my belly button, well, I realized this week it is already starting to take a hit. 😬 . I’m feeling immensely better than I did even a week ago. Doc assures me the 2nd trimester energy is still on way, but I’ll believe it when I feel it. 😉 . I also sent Jimmy on my first craving run. He said I qualify for the craving run now that I’m actually showing. 😂 What was the craving, you ask? Plain cheesecake. And it was delicious!

September 7, 2019: The day our friends (some really great people that are truly our family, too) showered us with love and shot us with paint to reveal the gender of our little peanut. . We would’ve been thrilled either way. A healthy and happy baby is all we hope for. 🙏🏼 Still, we are so very excited for our baby BOY to join our family in February. 💙 . #genderrevealparty #pinkorblue #itsaboy💙 #16weekspregnant #2ndtrimester #thebump #fbf

Happy #nationaldogday to this furry dude! You are my favorite hider of milk bones, snuggler of the belly, and stealer of spaghettis. I love you more than you love your toys. . And, seriously, he is the guiltiest looking pup, isn’t he? The spaghetti sauce in his chin furs doesn’t help his case. But it did make it impossible to be mad at him. 💕 . #ilovemydog #fosterfailure #rescuepup #girlsbestfriend🐶

@marthastewart chocolate chip cookies = all the smiles 😁😁😁 . I kinda love that I’m the kind of person that regularly has all the ingredients to bake cookies from scratch. . And I can’t wait til our lil babe is here and gets to help me make the cookies. I might even let them lick the spoon. (Or tell them it needs to be washed and eat it myself when they aren’t looking. 😉) . #barefootpregnantinthekitchen #14weekspregnant
