[26] Round 2

 had a little helper tonight :)


26 weeks ~

_______________________________________________________________________

Baby is the size of an eggplant.

Craving: Mexican (chips and salsa/guacamole specifically)

Maternity Clothes:  Maternity pants when I go out, and I even wore a maternity shirt this week!  Definitely feeling bigger and will be wearing maternity shirts more often very soon.

Sleep: It's hit or miss... I either sleep really well or I really don't.  That has also been the case since I've had a cold.

Aversions: Nothing really

Gender prediction: We think girl.  According to heart rate and babybpm.com, it's a boy.  Only time will tell

Name(s): We are still working on names!  But we won't be sharing. :)

Labor signs: A few Braxton Hicks

Belly Button: in

Wedding Rings:  on

Feeling: My shots still wipe me out on Tuesdays, but overall I have been feeling pretty good other than having a cold

Looking forward to:  starting to get all the baby stuff out soon!

Movement: Baby moves. A lot.  Sometimes he/she keeps me from going to sleep!

Next appointment: Monday

Snow Day!

While it didn't quite snow as much as the forecast said (6-8"), we got about 4".  And that's all we really want anyway.  And this was the good stuff.  No ice really.  Perfect for packing.  Fluffy.  Beautiful!  And to top it off, J got to work from home.  And he really did work... but he also played a little!

snowflake and snowman biscuits to start off the snow day

Coop has been wanting to build a snowman for months!

Another One Bites the Dust

We finally painted the kitchen.  There is so much we would like to do in there, but for now, we are calling it a day with a coat of paint.  It's a great mix of blue green that flows well between the blue of the living room and entry and the green of the dining room.  It's so clean and fresh!
