15 Weeks or so to go!

Well it's Wednesday! 25 weeks of pregnancy down! I can not believe how fast time is flying. I know I still have three more months, but yikes!!! I only have three more months! I still haven't heard back about the new house :( I am hoping I will hear something by this weekend - FINGERS CROSSED we get it! I did pick out LB's bedroom furniture, I love it! I still need to figure out which crib I want :-/, there are just so many to choose from! Other than that there is nothing new to report. LB is moving a lot!!! I love laying down and just watching my tummy, its amazing that such a little being can move so much!

How far along? 25 weeks

Total weight gain: 8 lbs

Maternity clothes: I picked up some shirts since they are longer than usual but still in my jeans!

Stretch marks: Cream in the AM, oil in the PM!!! Nope!

Best moment this week: Still feeling him move all the time - no one can even begin to explain what an awesome feeling that is!

Miss anything: Most recently Irish Car Bombs :-) lol! My usual glass of wine is missed :-(

Movement: Yes! He's getting stronger!

Food cravings: Sushi like mad!

Anything making you queasy or sick: Nope

Have you started to show: I think yes but lots of people still say no. I think they're being nice ;-)

Gender: Oh Boy!

Labor signs: None

Belly Button in or out? Still an innie!

Happy or Moody: Very happy!

Looking forward to: Moving into a new home, getting settled and ready for LB!

Wow! 24 Weeks!!!

I have no idea where the time has gone!?! I can't believe that the third trimester is right around the corner! Everything is going spectacularly well! On Monday I went and had another 3D/4D ultrasound done. I just love seeing him and how he's coming along! He is one long baby, below there is a picture of him in a full pike position! I guess that's the only way he can stretch his little legs out. Since I'm  5'9" and I'm the runt of the family, hopefully he'll get the tall genes! Everyone says he looks just like me :)
It looks like a move might be in the very near future :-/ I love the town that I currently live in but for more reasons than one the current home just isn't practical with a baby coming. I have found a house that I love. Fingers crossed that it works out and hopefully the move will take place sooner rather than later. That also means I have put the nursery planning on hold, but am still excited about getting it all together once we get settled!

How far along: 24 Weeks

Total weight gain: 8 lbs.

Maternity clothes: Not yet... but am picking up some longer t-shirts :)

Stretch marks: Nope

Best moment this week: Seeing his precious little face!

Miss anything: Being tan and sushi!

Movement: All the time, and he's definitely getting stronger!

Food cravings: Nothing really

Anything making you queasy or sick? Nope

Have you started to show? I think so, but most people can barely tell I guess. When they hear I am 24 weeks they are shocked!

Gender: Baby Boy!

Labor signs: None

Belly Button in or out: Innie!

Happy or Moody: Happy as can be!

Looking forward to: Finding a new house!

LB with his feet on his face!

The first thing I made for my baby!

I just can't begin to describe how much fun and enjoyment I had knitting this baby blanket! Each time I picked it up I would think about LB wrapped up in it, what he might look like and if he'll even like it! ;-) It was such a fun thing to do which means I am sure by the time he arrives he will have lots of handmade goodies!

It has been pretty much raining non-stop here which makes these projects a lot of fun!

Happy Friday!

Wrapping LB in lots of LOVE!

This morning I received two packages! One from my mom and one from my Nana! They had both made handmade blankets for LB! He is going to be wrapped up in so much love!

From my mom!

From my Nana!

23 Weeks down! Approximately 17 to go!

Happy Wednesday!
I am so proud of myself for being so diligent with the last few post! Things are moving along very quickly! I had a doctors appointment yesterday and all was good! Got to hear LB's heartbeat, which was precious as always! I am almost done knitting the baby blanket that I am making him. Hopefully I'll finish today or tomorrow. I'll post pics as soon as I'm done :)

I am still trying to figure out how I want to put the nursery together. I am pretty sure I found the furniture I will end up getting, just still trying to figure out what crib I want! I have been looking at a lot of different pictures for ideas on how to decorate and which color schemes I want to use. Found quite a few that I like a lot, but nothing that I absolutely love... I still have some time though!

In the meantime I have been stimulating the economy as far as baby boy attire is concerned! He will be one of the best dressed little men around!

Hope you are all doing fabulously well!

22 Weeks and it seems like just yesterday it was 12!

Not a lot of new developments this week... LB continues to move around all the time, kind of has me frightened of what's to come! I have put on a few more pounds and actually have a little belly this week. Most people still don't believe me when I say I'm five (sheeeeesh! FIVE!!!) months pregnant though.
The spare bedroom should be empty by this weekend which will allow for some real brainstorming on how I want to do the nursery.  I have picked out some really cute furniture that I'm pretty sure I'm going to go with. I'll post pics as soon as I decide.
I'm also still knitting away on a little blanket for him. It puts a smile on my face each time I pick it up because the whole time I'm working on it I'm thinking of him!

How far along: 22 Weeks
Total weigh gain: 5lbs (not sure if thats baby or my need to eat girl scout cookies like they're going out of style!)

Stretch marks: Nope :)
Best moment this week: Feeling him move all the time and finishing the baby registry
Miss anything: Being tan and beverages that are not on the children's menu ;)
