24 Weeks

This is the only picture I have. It is from tonight. I made dinner and watched my nieces while their mom and dad went to dinner for their anniversary. Never a dull moment:)

Total weight gain: 15 pounds so far. Doctor says I'm right on track. I thought I had gained more since we just got back from vacation but she seemed pleased.

Sleep: Still no complaints. I sometimes get up once through the night to go to the bathroom but I usually get back to sleep pretty quickly.

Food/Eating: Same. I don't feel like I eat any more or less than I did before I was pregnant. I still don't have any cravings either although the heartburn is always nagging at me.

What I miss: Nothing!

Looking forward to: Starting her room! I ordered fabric today and the crib is in. I had someone come in and measure for the window treatments today and I hope to finish getting the fabric within the next couple weeks. We still need to pick the bed up and put it together. I can't wait to see it!

Best moment of the week: Hitting the 3rd trimester. This pregnancy has gone by so quickly! Also, Kevin finally felt her kick. It was so sweet. She is starting to kick so hard that you can see my belly move from across the room. Lastly, I went to the doctor today and she informed me that I will get a few more ultrasounds. I will go back at 28 weeks and get ultrasounds every 2 weeks until I deliver. They are looking for fetal growth. Basically, they want to monitor everything so in case my blood sugar goes crazy (which I'm not expecting) then they can be prepared to deliver as soon as possible. This is just in case. Like I said, we aren't really expecting this to happen but it is better to be prepared than not. I was happy to hear that I will get to see her more before she arrives. I love seeing her every chance I get!



These are some of the things I got her on vacation. A brown corduroy dress with tights, a stuffed octopus with socks she can wear, a pink pearl necklace onesie, a white ruffled gown with a crown on it, some burp cloths, and an overnight bag for when she stays the night out:)
