24 weeks!!!!



how far along: 24 weeks

total weight gain: 15 pounds. (can't believe I have gained two since last week)

baby is the size of: foot long sub

miss anything: beer, and vanilla lattes. i will miss all coffee this time of year.

cravings: grapes, and nachos

belly button in or out:  more so out than in.  but not all the way out yet.

looking forward to: having our nursery furniture delivered.  it comes next week!!!!!

best moment this week: going to target with my dear friend jenny to set up my baby registry.  so exciting!

maternity clothes:  maternity clothes all the time, otherwise oversized pajamas. 

labor symptoms: none

being 24 weeks somewhat puts my mind at easy with this pregnancy.  hopefully i won't go into labor early, but at this point in the pregnancy if i do, the doctors could do their best to save the baby if he does indeed come early.  i also am in complete shock that i am 6 months pregnant now!! it is crazzzyyy!!!!! this pregnancy is flying by so quickly.  

i have a doctor appointment tomorrow for my glucose test.  really not looking forward to doing it.  my doctor gave my the drink last time i was there and i picked the lemon-lime flavor because it seemed like the best option out of the three.  so tomorrow morning at 8am i will leave the house, to make it to my 9am appointment and on the way in i get to drink the drink.  very nervous.  i really hope i pass so i don't have to do the three hour test.  

i will try and remember to update tomorrow right when i get home from the appointment.  wish me luck!!!!!!!!!!!

Registry Time!!!!!!!






today was fun, fun, fun!!!!!!!!!!! i got to make my baby shower registry .  my lovely friend jenny llanes from llanes weddings took me over to target to help me register for stuff. being a first time mama i had no idea what to put on there.  but i think we scored with putting some good things on there, and i will also make an amazon registry with a few other things we need. 

what are your likes for newborns?

23 Weeks!!!!!

so along with having pregnancy brain, i've just been way too darn tired to update this thing.  but i stumbled across a few other pregnant girls blogs, and loved something they were doing weekly to track their pregnancy.  so i thought i'd give that a shot, and see how that worked out for me.  so here goes nothing!!!!!!!!



how far along: 23 weeks!!!!!!! (well and 3 hours)

total weight gain: 13ish pounds

baby is the size of: ear of corn

miss anything: SLEEP!!!!!!!! it is impossible to get good sleep these days.

cravings: orange juice, eggo waffles (all the time!)

symptoms:  sciatica, insomnia, very moody this week.

belly button in or out: more so out, than in.

movement: lots of kicks here and there, as well as some rolling. 

looking forward to: setting up the nursery, cooler weather, and going to paris next month (seriously so excited)!!!!

best moment this week: nothing really stands out in my mind.  nothing horrible happened, but nothing great either.  maybe something will happen today or tomorrow!

maternity clothes: officially in maternity clothes mode.  none of my old dresses fit, and i am most definitely not fitting in any of my pre-pregnancy pants.  not that i ever wore pants any ways.  i have always been a dress kind of gal.
