Slowly but surely the nursery corner is coming together! !! Our super comfy glider is on order.... the decal will be going up soon! Next on the list, my mega list of sewing projects.
Some pics of J and me during our special bonding experience putting together nursery furniture :)
Getting soo excited! !~!
32 yards of fabric waiting to be sewn into sheets, crib skirt, changing pad cover, and other cute nursery accessories. And we're off!
Pregnancy Highlights
How Far Along: 24 weeks, 6 months exactly!
Size of baby: an ear of corn. Or according to ultrasound, almost a foot long and weighing in at 1 1/2 pounds. Ute is the size of a soccer ball. Its officially above my belly button!
Weight change: +20
Maternity Clothes: had to retire my pink Cali jeans today. Yesterday I did the rubberband-on-the-button trick & the band snapped! Lol.
Gender: still a girl, confirmed x3 :)
Movement: More pronounced. I can feel her all the time now! Got my first kick in the bladder today. Ouch. J can feel her when she's doing hardcore karate chops.
Sleep: good, minus a few weird dreams and having to switch sides all the time. My hips get so sore!
Symptoms: heartburn here & there. Overall nothing too horrendous right now.
What I miss: sleeping on my back. Being able to sit longer than an hour without hurting. Last week's road trips & plane rides about killed me.
Cravings: sushi. Mmmmm! I put in a request to go for the fake (read: cooked) stuff this weekend.
Aversions: none.
Innie or outie: innie! Yeah!
Favorite Moment This Week: had to go back for anatomy scan round two since they couldn't clear her face or heart 3 weeks ago. Thank heavens everything checked out GOOD!!
Worst Moment This Week: work is getting harder to do for 8 hours at a time. I've cut down a Bunch but thinking I'm closer to the end.
Looking Forward To: sewing crib sheets this weekend! ! We got the dresser, bookshelf, crib, and ordered the rocking chair this week. Cradle & mattress are ready to go. Now the fun stuff can ensue! :)
Daddy update: Daddy laid eyes on his first cloth diaper.....and was impressed! ! "That's the whole thing? Oh cool!" Mommy, FTW!
