The Bradford Bunch

So this month has already been a month of parties! Two weekends ago was Sandra's and Lindsey's baby showers. It was also my niece Madi's birthday. I had a fun time trying to get around to everything! This past weekend was Brad's 25th birthday. I am a horrible wife and didn't take any pictures of his birthday party. : ( Thanks for everyone that came. We had a great time. I even told Brad to remind me, but that obviously did not help. I am so scattered brained lately. I have made it through a month of school, and really proud of that. Brad has started applying for jobs when he graduates. Hopefully he will be able to find something before December. This week should be the arrival of baby Sofia!! I am excited to see what she looks like. We also bought Baby Carter's cribbing. I am really excited because we got it at TJ Maxx for half of the price that is in stores! Well I think that is about it!

So it has been awhile since I have updated this! Well I started school again, and luckily this year my students are much better. I hope they continue to be good! Well I actually didn't make it through the first week of school. My first Wednesday morning I woke up and Brad had made me my favorite muffins for breakfast. I sat down to eat one of them and I started to get sharp pains in my abdomen. I decided to go lay down for a bit. When I got back up I left for work. As I was driving the pains came back and were much worse. By the time I got to school I could barely stand up. The other teachers in my area told me to call Brad and have him come pick me up. I called my doctor, but she didn't seem very concerned. She just told me to go home and lay down. My cramping stayed around for half the day. Luckily I have not had to experience that since that day. My mom told me that pre-term cramping can happen because of dehydration. The school that I teach in does not have air conditioning and it was 100 degrees the first two days of school. Since then I have been drinking tons of water.
This past week we went for our ultrasound. The ultrasound tech told us that Carter is perfect with everything. He is right on schedule growth wise and it seems like he will be showing up around the 18th of January. I was really happy when I heard all of this. I am also going to be putting pics up of that ultrasound.
Monday was Labor Day and Kristina, Lindsey, and I went up to Park City for some baby shopping. It was soooo cold! By the time we got up to Park City it was 45 degrees outside! I was going to take pictures of us, but it was really rainy and gross so I decided against it. We all found some really cute clothes at the carters outlet. I am really excited to put Carter into carters clothing hahaha. Lindsey got a bunch of super cute clothes at osh kosh. I liked a lot of clothes there, but I was not as patient about waiting in line to buy it.
I finally took a picture of me today, 21 weeks along for your viewing pleasure. Seriously feel good about all your skinny figures as you see me. Brad and I went on a walk today, and lets just say I can defintely feel the affects of carrying a baby!
