I'm not slacking this week! Yay!



Impromptu belly shot... That shirt is working pretty hard there :)



I haven't gone a bit overboard have I? I am now moving on to 3-6 months (left side) and summer clothes! I love to shop, as if it isn't apparent!



The begginings of the nursery. Paint was already done with previous owners so that was easy...basically a pretty blue with clouds, and a sage green under the chair rail. We are going with a jungle theme and it works really well! I saw these at a store and I needed them :) They were only a $1 each so who could resist? This will be the corner where the glider will go.

How far along? 25 w 1 d

Total weight gain/loss: 12 lbs, although, I am afraid to step on the scale!!

Maternity clothes? pretty much every article of clothing

Stretch marks? nothing major and wasn't there before

Sleep: Its good but I have been having some bad dreams. Nothing too bad, but a little weird...

Best moment this week: I forgot that last week was V-day! That is pretty awesome and the fact that I talked to my mom and she told me that she was excited to go crib shopping and bedding shopping! I knew about the crib gift from her and my dad but had no idea about the bedding! My mom and dad are rarely in town so I cannot wait until the get back and we can have a mom and daughter day!

Movement: Everyday, all day! He is especially active when its bed time...lil stinker!

Food cravings: french fries, kiwi, and bbq sauce! As always meat and cheese too.

Gender: BOY! Handsome and adorable!

Labor Signs: no real ones, but Braxton Hicks have started!

Belly Button: still in

What I miss: nothing. I am really enjoying this part of pregnancy!

What I am looking forward to: My baby shower! There has been a lot of talk about it recently :) Only about 5 more weeks to go!

Weekly Wisdom: I have my days where I act like I am disabled more than pregnant. I can get out and do things still, and I remembered this while pushing my niece and nephew on the swings today. I had so much fun and I felt like I got a little exercise. I need to remember more often that I need to do the things I enjoy now before I get to big to enjoy them!

Milestones: We are pretty sure Travis SAW the baby move. We will try more, but little man gets a bit stubborn when I want to show him off to daddy. Like father, like son :)

I've been so lazy!

How far along? 24 w 3 d

Total weight gain/loss: 12lbs as of my last OB appt, but I think I may have gained another lb or 2.

Maternity clothes? pretty much every article of clothing

Stretch marks? nothing major and wasn't there before

Sleep: Its been pretty good. I have had some horrible hip pain so I love sleep because it gets me off my feet!

Best moment this week: Little man had a dance party in my stomach yesterday and I watched it from the outside! He was really moving in there and this was the first time I could actually see it!!

Movement: Everyday and it seems like all day! He is especially a afternoon kind of guy.

Food cravings: any meat, cheese, and granola bars (but the unhealthy ones like chocolate chip ;)

Gender: BOY! Handsome and adorable!

Labor Signs: I sure hope not anytime soon!

Belly Button: still in

What I miss: nothing. I am really enjoying this part of pregnancy!

What I am looking forward to: Weirdly enough, my GD test. Diabetes run in my family, but my doc says I have none of the symptoms so far, so I would really like to see whats up and if I have GD. I will find out in about 2 weeks.

Weekly Wisdom: The baby will follow its own schedule. Just because I am not reaching "milestones" as fast as other people doesnt mean squat. My little man will do what he wants when he wants. Every pregnancy is different!

Milestones: Travis felt the baby from the outside at 23 weeks exactly!

Sorry to post the survey and run but I will get going on the belly pic tomorrow! I have just been working and being lazy, and kind of forgot last week! Thats pregnancy brain for ya. Hope everyone is well!!

A late 22 weeks!

How far along? 22 w 5 d

Total weight gain/loss: I had a OB appt yesterday and I am officially up 12 lbs

Maternity clothes? pretty much every article of clothing

Stretch marks? nothing major and wasn't there before

Sleep: I have been getting so good decent stretches of sleep, especially when I am worn out

Best moment this week: Seeing our son again on the u/s. We saw him yesterday to measure his spine

Movement: Everyday and it seems like all day! He is especially a afternoon kind of guy.

Food cravings: pasta, mexican and any meat or cheese

Gender: BOY! Handsome and adorable!

Labor Signs: I sure hope not anytime soon!

Belly Button: still in

What I miss: nothing. I am really enjoying this part of pregnancy!

What I am looking forward to: A friend of mine is having a baby shower next weekend so that will be fun. We got a cool present so I hope she likes it!

Weekly Wisdom: TMI warning!! : Dont "push" to hard when going to the bathroom. This sorta mimics labor and my weak cervix thinks it means I should spot. Ugh, I have learned my lesson after a good cry or two and a talk with the doc!

Milestones: less than 4 months to go!! We are so anxious!!

I brought my MIL with me to see my u/s yesterday because she is probably the best grandma to be in the world (she is VERY excited to meet this little guy!) and she has also never seen a u/s before. We get there and get called back by my favorite u/s tech ever and get in the room. And then... The most "business" u/s tech ever walks in and I feel so bad for my MIL. This lady was not rude, just fast and all business. She looked for the spine first which is definitely why we were there, then she showed us the baby for about 1 minute and printed out the worst pictures and said, "Okay you can wipe yourself off now" and left. I felt so bad for my MIL because she took off work in hopes to get to see her grandson and I felt she got a little slighted. Its okay, she did get to see his heart a beating, and his little face so she was still excited!

Then we ate Mexican (yum!) and shopped for the baby shower present. We of course couldnt make a shopping trip incomplete, so my little man got a bag full of goodies too! He is so darn spoiled! She also bought his his pack and play with the built in bassinet and I am so excited for it! I posted the link because I am picture illiterate...its such cute monkeys! Hope everyone has a great 4th of July weekend!
