life update: 24 weeks & gender reveal!

Friday, May 16, 2014

How far along: 24 weeks (size of a corn on the cob)
Gender: baby girl! I'm so excited to give my little j a sister to play with. I imagine tea parties and glitter everyday :)
Weight gain: about 12-15 pounds
Maternity clothes: not really, just dresses as shirts and lots of leggings! did buy some white capri pants from liz lange maternity at target and they're versatile enough to wear everyday...not that I do that...ha
Stretch marks: from previous pregnancy.
Belly button in or out: in
Sleep: still pretty normal though I feel the belly more. lately I've been a really good sleeper. I fall asleep in seconds and don't wake up for anything lol
Best moment of the week: actually seeing the kicks coming from inside my belly! baby girl is getting strong! what a blessing.  
Movement: lots of flutters through out the day. I love it! it's like our own little secret that just my baby and me share. she sends me butterflies in my belly everyday to say hello.
Cravings: still mainly sweets thought it toned down. eating lots of fruits and banana bread. but I love those things any time of the year :)
Looking forward to: every change this new baby will be bringing into our lives. we'll be moving soon into a place with more space in a few months, getting her nursery ready, and mostly seeing my two babies interact with each other :)
Nervous about: nursing. a baby and a toddler that desires more and more attention? that'll be a toughie. also, too much weight gain. last time I gained 50 (!) pounds. as with most women it got harder and harder to be active and my eating was out of control. I was constantly hungry and could out eat a 240 pound man (that would be my husband) easily. I'm already starting to feel no energy for activities other than housework so that makes me nervous.

I realized these are not very colorful today and that I should've called these posts words of wisdom Wednesday...oh well...
 
tomorrow I'm attending a birthday party for a friend who I've known for over a decade. we started out as young, awkward teens chasing boys and now we're both married to the men of our dreams who happen to share the same name.
 
 that last picture is actually exactly how I feel about my husband.
 
I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Friday is here! no body on earth needs to be reminded of that, they already know.
 
my weekend will be spent preparing for my darling husbands birthday, an anniversary celebration and deep cleaning-my usual Saturday morning routine. I could never say I liked cleaning before but since becoming a mom I have learned to love it solely because I want to be a role model for my daughter in positive ways in all areas of my life. be it how I spend my day, interact with other people and the environment. she's currently taking items out of the recycling bin so I have my work cut out :) gotta go tend the mess!
