Happy first post of Fall y'all!
 |
| Ben had to stop me from buying all of these. In non-baby related news, we went to the farmer's market this morning per Ben's request. I love that he loves to go! We visited the Hillcrest Farmer's Market for the first time and it was so awesome! They had a ton of vendors and goodies there. I'm excited about it cooling down so I can not sweat to death at 9:30 in the morning. Hopefully it's feeling more like fall by next Sunday!   |
Weight Loss/Gain: About 20lbs now. I told Ben I don't feel like I look like I've gained 20lbs except for the fact that I have a giant belly. Plus, according to our scale I'm still at around +15, not 20. So that and the fact that all of my pre-pregnancy pants still fit over my hips makes me feel good!
Sleep: Holy crap. I should change this category to "I wish I could sleep". It is so hard to fall asleep because it's a struggle to get comfy with a baby squishing your insides. That combined with not being able to breathe and waking up a million times a night is no bueno.
Movement: My crazy little girl! She moves non-stop from the time I wake up to the time I go to bed. Her favorite song is "I Know Places" by Taylor Swift which I have determined by how much she dances when it comes on. This morning she was pushing my seatbelt away where it was pulling tight across my belly and Ben goes "I see she likes being cuddled just as much as you do." Which is not at all.
Cravings/Aversions: Chicken is not my friend. Steak is. So we eat that a lot. And I have a strawberry salad with raspberry vinaigrette almost everyday.
What I Miss: Breathing. Just easy, regular breathing.
Mood: I think I've been pretty normal. Mayyyyyybe a little bit cranky sometimes. But I'm fully prepared to blame that on the lack of sleep I'm getting.
Milestones: Baby has fingernails and toenails now! Hopefully she doesn't pick up the bad habit of biting them (mom, dad, and Buck all do it!).
Baby's Development: She's about 4lbs and is the size of a head of lettuce. Which I feel like is small? Eyebrows, eyelashes, and even more hair are coming in this week.
Mom's Development: This growing belly is about as far as it goes. But it now has three tiny stretch mark friends on my hips. Which I really don't understand because my hips have not done very much growing (see pants still fitting above). BUT I'm thankful they are small and hopefully I can manage to avoid getting them anywhere else! But if not, I will constantly remind her that she is the reason my body is RUINED! I'm kidding. Kind of. (;

| Hello belly button! |
& how cute is the packaging on this little tiny homecoming headband?! So precious! I'm loving wondering what she's going to look like and guessing how much hair she will have. With all this heart burn, I think it's safe to say there will be lots!
Can you believe we'll have a baby before the next season comes around?!
