I can’t tell you how FAST 30 weeks goes by, but the time
sure does fly! I’m entering my 31st week of pregnancy, getting
everything prepared for baby Moses’ arrival and ENJOYING the last few weeks as
a family of two with my husband.
A couple of weeks ago I was able to take a MUCH needed and
super relaxing trip to the mainland, Oregon to be exact! It’s where I was born
and raised until two years ago when my husband and I packed up and flew across the
Pacific to reside in Maui. It was so great to see my family & friends. Having almost
two weeks of total relaxation, fun get togethers and enjoying Oregon with the people
I love. I definitely ate my way around Oregon, lol! Gaining some poundage in
that two weeks {I’ll discuss later}, but it was 100% worth it! I love living in
Hawaii, but I will ALWAYS be an Oregon girl at heart and I enjoyed myself THOROUGHLY! Here are a few of my Oregon pics :) ENJOY!

| Crashed a Johnson family get together, this is my BFF (Ruth's) family and these are her two strapping brothers!! Love them! |
Coming back home to my hubby was also amazing—I am so blessed
with a rock solid marriage and a sexy, fun and kind husband. We’ve been
together for almost a decade and been married for 7 of those years and my
Oregon trip was the longest we’ve been apart. Embracing him when I got off that
plane almost brought tears to my eyes. I am in love and there are no words to
describe the passion and love I have for my husband. He also had a big surprise
for me when I got home. He had completed SO many things off my Honey Do list
that I’ve been compiling throughout this pregnancy. He’s continued to spruce up
our home and make everything PERFECT for our family. It’s definitely helped me
out, because my anxiety has been at an all-time high during this pregnancy, he
knows this and has done everything without me asking—He just does it and
blesses me beyond what I would’ve asked for.

| FLASHBACK-- 7 years ago on our wedding day! LOVE THAT MAN!!!!!! |
As for my health...
I’ve been rocking this bump like a pro! Of course back pain is starting to
creep in due to all the pressure and weight coming out of the front of my body.
Heartburn has been so crazy, I’m poppin’ antacids like nobody’s business. I’ve
been trying other things as well and all jokes aside have been really changing
my diet to see what helps—Honestly, it doesn’t matter what I eat… Baby is
pushing up, my smooth muscle is weak and that combo creates a burn that is excruciating,
but will end once baby is born. Sleep is some nights, amazing and others nights
I roll from side to side 300 times… It can be annoying for my bedmate, but hey—I’m
the one getting kicked ALL night from our future NFL kicker! So, he doesn’t
complain. Like I mentioned earlier, I gained a bit “more than normal” when I
took my vacation to Oregon and I KNEW I would. Heck, my family took me to EVERY
one of my favorite restaurants... Hello!? Yes please, pass the bread basket.
LOL All of that to say to you now, I’m back on track! Dave and I have been
eating super well since my return, we’ve been doing a two-mile walk almost
every night that gets us both sweating. I also get in the pool everyday no
matter what and do laps, get my heart rate up and stretch. Having a pool has
been Ahhhh-Mazing! I love it!

| This is ME, 7/26/13 entering my 31st week! |
Anywho, that’s where life’s at for us! We have it pretty
good, I think!\
XO Hannah
