Slacker..

So obviously I didn't do a very good job of blogging about my pregnancy... {oops} And as you all know I had my beautiful baby girl on January 2nd, 2015! So in my own way of catching up, I am just going to post pictures from the months I missed!

I will say that I was truly blessed during my pregnancy, I was never sick, and had no pregnancy complications. Other than the fact that at 30 weeks she was measuring really small, so I had to do NST test (non-stress tests) every week until I delivered. Which isn't ideal, but hey if that's the worst, I can't complain! I have a beautiful, healthy little girl, and I couldn't be more happy!

I got pretty attached to my bump, so I am super happy I took plenty of pictures to document!

Maternity Pictures

So as you all know, my friend Kenna Orr is basically the best photographer around! I am so lucky she is my best friend because I get the opportunity to get amazing pictures done, and we always have the best time! I am always so at ease and comfortable when we shoot so the pictures turn out amazing every time! (and she is just freaking talented)

So I wanted to share with all of you these gorgeous pictures! It was a super last minute shoot that turned out so great! The water was freezing, but it was so worth it! Enjoy :)

P.s- If you need a great photographer, and you're in Southern Utah, go check out her blog! It will not disappoint!

weeks 24-27

So I decided it is a lot easier to blog about my pregnancy weeks at a time, not only because I'm forgetful, but because some weeks are just plain boring! These past few weeks have been pretty exciting!

Week 24:
Logan got me on a work out plan at our local Golds Gym, which is probably a good idea considering I haven't done anything active during my pregnancy what so ever! My doctor told us that it is much better for delivery and post pregnancy if you start working out now. So I figured I should probably get on that, thanks to Pinterest, I found some great pregnancy work out plans that I have surprisingly been enjoying!

By the end of the week we usually find ourselves in St. George, not only because I work weekends at Blue Linen, but our group of friends live down there as well! This weekend we all decided to take a spontaneous road trip down to Las Vegas for the Iheart radio music festival! Seriously, it was so much fun, we saw so many amazing people play live, from One direction, to Ed Sheeran, to Lil john, and so much more! It was the longest concert I have ever been too, but it also topped the charts being one of the best times ever! The concert got over around 1am, and we were all starving, so we all went to Ihop before hitting the road to head back home!



(I wish I took more photos from the concert but I only took one because my phone died!)

Week 25 & 26:
So these two weeks were pretty laid back! During the week I usually have nothing going on, and the weekends I work down in St. George and we hang out with our friends! Saturday early afternoon I spent the day with my mom, going to lunch and getting in our daily dose of target in! I had to find a baby shower gift for my cousin Gerri, she is having a baby boy literally a week before my little taters arrives! Her baby shower was at my cousin Chelsie's house in St. George, it was the cutest baby shower ever! all my cousins, aunts, and my grandma dine were there, and also Gerri's family and friends. It was so nice to spend the afternoon eating amazing food and spending time with my family! She got so many cute things, and it made me super excited for my baby shower!

 Sunday Logan took me down to Vegas, I had to get some more maternity clothes for our up coming trip to Disneyland! He took me to lunch at my favorite place in the world, cheesecake factory! I could literally eat there all day everyday! I ended up having a wonderful day with my husband, and got a lot of maternity stuff I needed, including some brand new Nike free-run shoes! Thanks hubby you're the best! Also thanks to my amazing dad, he gave me some money for some clothes, because we are a broke newlywed pregnant couple!


                         

pregnant cousins!


Week 27:
WELCOME 3RD TRIMESTER!
Yes, that's right I am finally in my third trimester! Honestly I have no clue where my 2nd trimester went! It seriously flew by in a blink of an eye, I am feeling honestly pretty great! This little girl is so active and her kicks always put a huge smile on my face. This week my hubby took us on a baby moon, we went to Disneyland! I was soo unbelievably excited, Disneyland is truly the happiest place on earth! We drove down Wednesday morning and got there around 6 PM. As soon as we got there we got settled into our hotel, (which was conveniently right next to a target!) Logan's dad is in California for his job, he was super close to us so we decided to meet up with him for dinner, then got a great night of sleep because we had to get up early for Disneyland in the morning!

We decided to split Disneyland and California adventures into two separate days, which I am so glad we did because otherwise I would have been so overwhelmed! Since I couldn't ride any of the roller coasters and big rides, we decided to hit everything in the park we have never done! It was so much fun, and there is so many cute rides I had no idea were even there! Around 2:00 we decided to go back to our hotel and rest up and head back later that night.

The next day we went to California Adventures, it was perfect because not a lot of people were there! Disneyland was packed when we went, so we were super excited that this park was dead! We walked onto the cars ride which is seriously the most popular ride, and also a personal favorite! We rode almost every ride besides tower of terror, and screamin. (those are my favorite rides ever) I had the most amazing clam chowder in a bread bowl, seriously it was to die for! Later that night we watched the world of color, I had never seen it before so I was so in love with it! This trip was so perfect, I loved spending quality time with my amazing hubby in the happiest place on earth! Cant wait till Tatum is old enough so we can take her!

Week 20-23:




WOW! I have some serious catching up to do, I am Currently on week 23 of pregnancy, and let me just tell you, it has been pretty amazing! I cannot believe I have less than 17 weeks left until my little love bug is finally here! These past three weeks were super easy, and flew by with a breeze! I haven't had any new ultrasound visits since week 20, but this little girl is an active one! Reassuring me that she is doing well inside my belly! Logan loves to talk to my stomach, and he finally saw my stomach move from her kicking! He was so excited, and it really makes me feel so happy and blessed.

The Dixie roundup rodeo was this past weekend! We went Thursday and Friday night, the first night we went with Logan's Family, and the second night we went with all our friends! It was super fun to get out and be around the whole town at such a fun event!

Like I said, it has been super laid back and easy breezy for the Vickerys these past few weeks! I can't wait for our next ultrasound to see our little taters! (My grandpa gave her that nick name, I love it!) I promise I will be less of a slacker on my pregnancy blogging! I got a bad case of the pregnancy brain, so spacing every little thing isn't so out of the ordinary for me these days!

Week 17-20: Mix up!




Wow I can't believe how much of a slacker I have become! So heres whats been going on these past few weeks. Drill team started back up again, so that means, early mornings, and being around the best group of talented girls I know! Also, I got my job back at Blue Linen Boutique in St. George UT. It's seriously the best job in the world, not only because it's the cutest boutique in southern Utah, but I truly enjoy being around the group of girls that work there! Needless to say, I am so happy to be back!




My cousin Chelsi, gave me the greatest gift ever! And I am so excited about it, she gave me her Uppababy Vista stroller! I am so incredibly lucky to have a family who is so helpful and giving. I am obsessed with it, and I don't even have my little one here yet to put it to good use!

Speaking of little one, SHE played a little trick on us! As you all know we announced we were having a little boy a few weeks ago, well that is not the case anymore! We went in to my anatomy ultrasound during my 19th week, we got to see our little bundle of joy and were reassured that the baby is perfectly healthy, and has everything she needs! We were so happy to hear that, but we have an active little baby on our hands, so it was nearly impossible to get a good gender shot. My ultrasound tech scheduled me for another ultrasound the following week, and soon enough I was back in the ultrasound room! As 30 minutes pass by quickly, with no gender shot, the ultrasound tech was almost positive it was a girl. I wanted to know for sure, so I asked her to bring in my doctor, and after lots of waiting and searching he told us it was a girl! Me and Logan were super shocked and of course Logan was a little bummed out he was no longer having a baby boy. But, as it sank in a little we are both so excited to welcome our little Tatum Nicole Vickery to the world!





Also we can feel her move now! She is super active at night, Logan has felt her kick so many times, it is truly amazing!
