1️⃣ This book is my foundation for getting through third trimester! 🤰 (The author got WACKO during COVID so I no longer follow her & quite honestly don’t want to financially support her 🤪 so if you want the book, I’ll lend it to you.)
2️⃣ Treat after my OBGYN (no sugar boba). 🧋 3️⃣4️⃣5️⃣6️⃣7️⃣ Homecoming for both our high schools. 🥳 8️⃣9️⃣ Saturday Zoo Boo Bash @centralflzoo with my parents which meant I got to take a nice long morning nap!!! 😴 Sunday (no pics): 8am mass, play date with @carlatortilla & then @courtney.furiosi came over in the afternoon with homemade yummy bread. 🥖 All in all a fantastic week & so ready to have my parents over this next week for Hallow-tide! 🎃 🕯️ 👻 ••• #jisforjourney #thirdtrimesterproblems #homecoming #catholicmom #madeforthis #dressup #bobatea #zoo

This is the only photo I have from this week. Officially in the third trimester 🎉 and extremely tired of negotiating & dealing with insurance and benefits to get what I think is justice for my family and my pregnancy. Had to do all this last time & doing it again… 💪 🤰#thirdtrimester #jisforjourney

For every low this week, there was a high. Real life in balance. Gestational diabetes was a real low but @acalvo_94 spending the weekend with us & taking William to Disney was a high. 🩸🏰 ••• Reminding myself that allllll my medications & interventions & diagnoses are the only reason I can even carry a baby to term. As upsetting & exhausting as it all is, the fact that I get to hug & kiss my baby tonight, when I loss 3 before him, makes it all worth it. 🌈 👶 ••• #highriskpregnancy #unfilteredmotherhood #jisforjourney #magickingdom #cfscoffee #gestationaldiabetes #walk #itsokdad

We got back Sunday evening from DC, Tuesday we hosted William’s baptism anniversary fondue dinner with @courtney.furiosi & his padrino. 🫕 🥦 🍴🍷🥖🍅🍎🍝Otherwise it was quite yet busy trying to get something’s in order for Halloween 🎃 ☠️ & sorting stuff for baby no. 2. 👶 Still not yet in the third trimester but I feel like I am! 🤰 ••• #jisforjourney #baptismanniversary #catholic #27weekspregnant #2yearsold

UPDATE: these didn’t upload correctly, Will fix tomorrow.

This week’s update is really just this weekend’s update. The Furiosis flew to Washington, DC so Will could attend a conference. While Will did that William & I hung out with Tia & attended mass at the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception. Oh and I’m super excited to have crossed another AP Art History image of my list: Electronic Superhighway!!!

I realize this has essentially become all toddler & pregnancy updates #sorry that’s just been the bulk of where my brain & body have been lately.🤰Honestly, work is going really smoothly this year, so not much to update there but I’ll try to add more of that next week.
1. Monday yoga (that is the # 1 thing I did last time to prep for an unmedicated birth & hoping for the same this time.) 🧘‍♀️
2. Soooo I ended up in the ER (again). My stupid heart (again). I’m ok, baby is ok! ❤️‍🩹
3. I rested the ER visit day (my amazing intern took over my classes). 👨‍🏫
4-6. A suspiciously smooth Saturday with a rambunctious toddler. 📸 Not pictured: the park birthday party we went to.
7 & 8. Sunday afternoon walk with momma. 🚶🚶 📸 Not pictured: birthday brunch date with @thefuriosity •••

By Friday was was WIPED: 3 doctors appointments + meetings + busy work week + toddler. 🏥 👩🏻‍🏫 🗓️ 🏃‍♂️ I still managed to fold a load of towels (we shy away from paper towels in the kitchen) & wash + hung out colors for Saturday morning folding. 🧺 🧼 🍽️ I also got a short but sweet nap on Friday afternoon too! 😴 •••

We involve William with pretty much every household task. Not because it makes it easier by any means but because we think it’s important for him to be involved and it’s fun to watch him pick up new skills. •••

Saturday morning we also went to @orlandosciencecenter & out to lunch at @reyesmezcaleria 🍊🌮🍹•••

Every Sunday after @oviedocatholic mass we go watch the turtles in the pond, this morning we had the alligator too! 🐢😮🐊 After mass we went out to the NEW @cfscoffee in Oviedo. ☕️ 🥯

(By the way, we don’t ever go out to eat this much. I was just absolutely wiped by the weekend and I knew I needed a little bit of a reset if I was going to make it into the next week.)•••

Hello! My name is Jessica & I am the content creator of J is for Journey; I started this blog way back in the fall of 2013 when I left to teach English Italy. And here I am, many years later, still blogging about travel, art history and religion – my three great passions in life. Now, with the birth of our son, I have added a fourth passion: motherhood. I hope you enjoy the journey!
