Bumpdate: Week 16

How Far along: 16 weeks

Baby's size: Avacado

Weight loss/gain: Still down 5 lbs.

Sleep: Nightly bathroom visits between 2-4 am.  It's so frustrating because I have not done well getting back to sleep after that, and it is making me really tired!

Gender: TBA in May. Zach really wants to find out, so we have discussed what we're going to do!

Movement: I'm sure Shim is moving and grooving in there, but I don't feel anything of course!

Best Moment of this week: Getting to shop in Alabama!  Then of course coming home to Zach and Nellie.  I missed them too much!

Looking Forward: To hopefully feeling Shim move in the next few weeks.  We are ready to feel that!

Food cravings: Still Chick-fil-a! 

Weirdest Food I ate last week: Nothing, pretty sure I'm not going to eat any new foods that I already don't eat.

Anything making you feel sick or queasy: Not this week.

Symptoms: Waking up and not being able to go back to sleep well.  Does this count as a symptom?

Workouts: Non-existent.  I am so not proud of this.

What I miss: Nothing much, except for a continuous night's sleep.

Things that stink: Not sleeping well.  It's miserable!

Things that don't stink: The fact that Christmas break is within reach.  I can't wait for 16 days off.

Mama's Thoughts: I really wonder what Shim could be.   I know I've said boy, but I have absolutely no grounds for that guess.  It is just amazing to me that obviously we have a girl or boy headed our way, but the possibilities seem endless. 

Daddy's Thoughts: Zach won't take a guess as to what Shim is.  I guess there is no "father's intuition"like there is mother's.  Also, he was rubbing my belly butter on my belly the other night and pointed while saying, "Oooh, I think that's a new stretch mark!"  I told him he was lucky I didn't smack him.  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...

Turns out...

Third grade is not bad at all! The kids are still pretty sweet and are so excited for me to be there and I am excited too! I think it will be fun to see all that they can do and have fun with them. Yesterday I received 5 notes on my desk about how excited that I was there and about how much fun we were going to have. I think they are right! Hopefully I get the hang of them quickly, because I start teaching Science (Mon and Wed), Social Studies(Tues and Thur), and PE (Fri) next week!

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!  ...
