I cannot begin to describe how loved I felt last weekend. My sister Bridgette threw me the most special, thoughtful and beautiful baby shower. She had every last detail covered. From the super pretty decorations to the amazing food (she hand made me cotton candy- love her) it was lovely!
I was surrounded by my family and friends and we had such a wonderful time celebrating baby Gwyneth. I love you all and can’t wait for you all to meet her!
Wow! We have arrived at 30 weeks and I am so excited! Baby Gwyneth is getting stronger everyday – or at least her kicks and wiggles are. My doctor told me at our last appointment that she expects baby to weigh in between 8-9 lbs at birth. Oh boy. Sounds like she is going to take after me on that front, I weighed in at 8lbs 6 oz. Only time will tell…eeks!
I am really hoping the next 10 weeks breeze by. I don’t want to wish them away because being pregnant is such an amazing and special experience, but I am so looking forward to meeting my little girl. I can’t wait to see her face and snuggle her day and night.
Hooray! We are done decorating little G’s room and I LOVE it. I had a lot of fun putting it together, but I have to say I feel so happy that it is all done and I can check it off my list. Some nights I just go sit in there and read stories to her while I rock. I am counting down the days until I get to do the same with her in my arms instead of in my belly. Life is good.
Well I am in the home stretch, sort of. I am officially in my third trimester and loving it. I know the next 11 weeks are going to feel like eternity as I wait to meet little G. Hopefully they go as smoothly as the last several have.
She continues to be a mover and a shaker. I am starting to practice for those sleepness nights as she likes to wake me a few times a night with her high kicks. She loves to bee-bop to music and doesn’t seem to be too particular to what she likes to jam to.
Here is my latest not-so-little bump photo:
And I wanted to toss one of Trev and I in the mix. Today Mom, Bridgette and I enjoyed a tea party at Valley Shepherd and Trevor was our server. What a handsome fella he is.
I am officially in the last week of my second trimester. Yay! I am getting really excited for July to be here, I cannot wait to snuggle her. And watch her Daddy dote on her.
We have had some sunny days and some rainy days, but Spring is officially here. Looking forward to more of the sunshine and green grass, pretty flowers. In the meantime, we have been working on a lot of inside projects for baby’s room. We have a few more to-do’s and then I’ll be posting pics. Excited for you all to see her little room.
Baby has been growing and is my tiny dancer in the late hours of the night. I have been feeling great and loving this stage of my pregnancy. I am eating like there is no tomorrow which is a very welcome change and my energy is still holding strong, yay!
Happy Spring!
Well baby girl is getting bigger and stretching out like crazy. I feel her move constantly and her favorite time to dance up a storm is between 10pm-1am – she is a night owl like her Daddy. According to Baby Center, she is now 11 inches long and weighs in at just over a pound.
I am a bad mommy and didn’t get a photo for 22 weeks. We were busy relaxing at Mom and Dad’s place in Vegas and I didn’t even pack my camera. The week away from work was wonderful though, Trev and I really got to unwind and soak up some sunshine. Loved it!
But we did get a photo snapped for this week – little Gwyneth is starting to show more!
Well we have passed the 21 week mark and so many fun things are happening. We got to see baby girl again last week and she continues to be shy and hide her face from us. Everything looks wonderful and we will just have to wait and see her little profile come July.
We have been cruising along on fun baby projects. Trevor has painted the nursery and we put together the crib this past weekend. Yesterday was a fun one for the books. Trevor finally got to see her kick. I have been feeling her move for about 2 weeks, but this past week she has really taken it up a notch where my belly actually moves. It was great to see Trev’s face light up when he saw her move.
And last but not least, we have picked out baby girl’s name, so exciting!
Drumroll……
Ta-da!
So much has been happening in the Caster household this past month. All wonderful and exciting, but I feel like I need to sleep for a month to catch up! Most exciting hands down is that we found out we are having a baby girl!! What a day. She is healthy, wiggles around perfectly and is growing, growing, growing. Love her already. I can’t wait to meet her and see her sweet face this summer.
Next up, Trevor launched his own commercial real estate company – Caster Investment Group. His hard work and dedication over the past 10 years have prepared him for owning his own brokerage and I am so proud of him. We have been working away on all of the details this month and he is off and running now. Yay!
Last but not least, I have been busy at work managing the launch of a new product line called Layers. I have learned so much in the past 3 months about personal care. It has been very challenging and fun all wrapped into one. I am eager to hear what you all think about the new products come March 1st!
February you have been wonderful.
Baby, Work |

We are doing great. Baby seems to be happy and hasn’t caused me an upset tummy for a few weeks which is heavenly. We heard Baby C’s heartbeat again yesterday and it was magic. Love that little babe. Exciting things are in store this week too- we get to find out if we are having a little boy or little girl on Wednesday. I’ll keep you posted!
