Mother's Day with a baby bump!                             

Best Moment This Week? –  I got some fun baby stuff!  The stroller and car seat we ordered came in the mail! Yay!  We also bought some butterflies and flowers for a mobile.  And our friends Quinn and Alaura gave us some super cute baby clothes!

I also had a fun Paparazzi Party.  I think we had a good turn out.  Here are some pictures that I took.

Miss Anything? - sleeping thru the night.  It’s amazing to me how the simplest things wear me out so quickly now.  I miss my energy!

Movement? - All the time!  And her kicks are getting so strong sometimes it tickles.

Food Cravings? - Everything!! If you mention something its then I crave it..

Anything Making Me Queasy or Sick? – not really

Gender: - GIRL!

Labor Signs? - no

Belly Button in or out? – in, but I can see the bottom of it now so I’m thinking soon.

Wedding Ring, On or Off? – For mother’s day John got me a really cute mother’s ring to wear while I’m pregnant.  It was really hard to get my wedding ring off.  So sad..

Happy or Moody most of the time? - Happy & anxious..

Looking forward to - getting the nursery done.  We've finally cleaned it out and now we just need to start loading it up with baby stuff!  We are going to refinish one of our dressers to make it a changing table and I can't wait to get started on that!

Baby is the size of a -   Eggplant about 14.8 inches from the top of the head to the heels and about 2 ¼ lbs. 

I swear you can see her eyelashes in this pictures.  It's a picture of a picture that John took with his phone.  So not the best quality..  But you can tell she is sucking her thumb!

Baby's development this week – She’s starting to develop more fat, so her wrinkly skin will start to get smoother.  She can blink her eyes, which now sport lashes.  With increasingly developed eyesight, baby may be able to see the light that filters in through the womb.

26 weeks!!

How Far Along? – 26 weeks!

Total Weight Gain? – 28 lbs since my last appointment.

Stretch Marks? – none.

Sleep? – It’s not the best..  I definitely wake up every time I have to roll over.  It’s almost a chore to roll over some times.

Best Moment This Week? – We took this baby belly jeeping in Moab.  It was interesting to say the least.  I did have to get out and walk on one jeep trail it just was to bumpy, but I think I did well and she did too.

Baby girl's first souvenir!

Miss Anything? - sleeping thru the night and cuddling with John as I go to sleep.  And my energy..

Movement? - All the time and I've seen her bouncing my belly.  Its very fun!

Food Cravings? - Everything!! While we were in Moab on a trail it was really hot but I had a sudden craving for hot chocolate..  When I finally got some at McDonald’s with our breakfast it tasted gross to me so I didn’t even drink it and got orange juice instead.
