Bumpdate: Week 26



Okay, I look pretty big here!  Just saying!! He's a growing!
How Far along: 26 weeks

Baby's size: A head of lettuce

Weight loss/gain: up 5 lbs total.

Sleep: Still getting up at least once a night, every now and then it is twice.

Gender: B-O-Y

Movement:  Moving a fair bit.  Feeling him more in my belly than lower.  If you've had a baby, that makes sense to you!

Best Moment of this week: House hunting, the week going by quickly!

Looking Forward:  Going to Angelo's for Valentine's day.  Looking at a house Saturday morning!

Food cravings: Sweets.  I still want Valentine's day cakes and other than that, just whatever is near.

Weirdest Food I ate last week: Nothing

Anything making you feel sick or queasy: Nope! Thank goodness! : )

Symptoms: Sciatic stuff that comes and goes. 

Workouts: Does work count as a workout? I stand and walk around for 8 hours!  If it's not, it's starting to feel like one!

What I miss: Just sleeping a full night peacefully without having to wake up to go to the bathroom! That would be so amazing! I taper off my fluid intake at night, and still can't make it through the night!

Things that stink: Nothing much right now.   The past two weeks have gone by so quickly!

Things that don't stink: looking at houses and feeling Shim moving around. Reading that baby's eyes are open!  Seeing as we are both blue eyed, I figure we will have a blue eyed little boy!

Mama's Thoughts: I feel like I should feel things are going by too fast or that it's going to go by so much faster the rest of the time, but I don't feel rushed yet.  And we have a LOT of things in the works in our lives right now!  Maybe I am subconciously in denial.  But as of now, I feel like we've still got plenty of time!

Daddy's Thoughts: Zach talks to him sternly and tells him to move for him!  Baby already isn't listening!  He hasn't felt him a lot this week.

Baby:Moving around, especially when Mama is sitting still. Sometimes he kicks during school while I'm teaching and it takes me by surprise!  Haha!

Family room re-do featuring.... my curtains! : )

For a while now, we've planned on finally finishing our family room.  That's right, it's kind of been unfinished for the entire time we've lived there.  It was painted and decorated, just no molding and the ceiling was hideous because we (and by we, I mean Zach) took down the drop ceiling the previous owners had put up.  So, anyway, I looked at curtains and didn't really find anything I liked, so I decided I was going to make my own.  Zach and I looked at Jo-Ann's a couple times and each time we looked I liked this fabric more and more.  It was the most expensive fabric I've ever bought, but in the end, it was sooooo worth it! (*Note- I bought the fabric in January before NSM! : )) Here we are at Mama Joyce's one day after church cutting the panels.  I think we were all nervous to cut it.  It was too costly to mess up! Fast forward a couple weeks because I didn't have time, was lazy, and also scared to sew on it, and I finally just delved in an...

Bumpdate: 41 weeks!

How Far along: 41 weeks.   Baby's size: Size of a jack fruit!  Around 7.5 lbs. (I think he's going to be about 8 lbs and Zach's official guess is 9 lbs. 2 oz.  I hope he's wrong!) Weight loss/gain: 30 lbs. (So glad the weight gain is slowing down!) Sleep: I told Zach I no longer am even trying to keep track of how much I am getting up to go to the bathroom. Gender: B-O-Y Movement:  He has been back to his super active little self this week.  Best Moment of this week:  Getting to spend time at home together now that we're finished with the old house.  Also, the 3 day weekend!  We didn't sleep in, much, but we figure that's all about to end anyway! Looking Forward: Getting to meet our baby boy.  I think it will be a little weird, because I truly don't feel like I'm finished being pregnant yet.  But, alas, we pretty much have to follow Dr.'s orders. Food cravings: Still pineapple!  ...

Valentine's Weekend

Zach and I seemed to stretch out Valentine's day for the whole weekend! On Friday night we had pizza ordered in (pineapple and mushroom, my FAVORITE, Thanks honey!) Then on Saturday, Zach took me to downtown Henderson to Memories, a little antique shop, and bought me a McGuffey reader to add to my collection! After that, we went to Bed, Bath, and Beyond in Evansville and Zach bought me a back massage machine that goes in the chair! It does shiatsu massage and feel wonderful! He jokes that now he won't ever have to give me massages anymore, but that's not true! Then we went back to his house, and he opened his present from me, a balance thing that measures reloading stuff for guns! As you can guess, I don't exactly know what it is, I just said, "Pick something out unless you want some new polos." Motivates him every time! Today after church and lunch at Mama Joyce's we rushed to the west side of Evansville and went to the movies! We saw "When ...
