24 weeks

24 weeks!

This pregnancy is flying by.  I think by this time with Brady I had most of his furniture, his room painted, crib put together.  This time...I gotta crib, not put together yet, but we have a crib...that's about it.  I need to get on the ball with getting her nursery put together for her, because she will be here before we know it!

I am still feeling great, and everything looks great with me and the baby.  So far, no signs of early labor.  But, I really had no signs with Brady until around 30 weeks or so.  Of course, at our ultrasound today she was in breech position, taking after her brother already.  There is still plenty of time for her to flip, but with Brady once we got to the third trimester, he was pretty snug and not moving. I learned last time that you just can't plan everything to go the way you want it.  So, if I have to have a repeat C-section I will, but my "plan" is to have a VBAC.  But, we all know it is really what HER plans are.  As long as everyone is safe and healthy, that is all that matters.

 How big is the baby? About 1 foot long and a little over 1 pound. (About the length of an ear of corn)

Weight Gain: Up about 10 pounds from my starting weight

Gender:  GIRL!

Maternity Clothes? Mostly...still wear some of my normal clothes

Sleep? Sleeping pretty well.  I do have to get up to go to the bathroom pretty much every night which is annoying.

Food Cravings/Aversions:  Eating A LOT these days.  I am always hungry, and if there is dessert around, I'm not turning it down.  Hey, gotta take advantage while I can, right?

Movement: She is a wiggle worm.  You can actually see her kicks from the outside now.

What I miss? I still really don't miss too much.  Honestly, sometimes I forget I am even pregnant.  Oh how I know too well that will change soon!

What I'm Looking forward to? Well, since Paul and I had to reschedule our trip to the Grove Park Inn for President's Day weekend since Brady got sick before we were supposed to go last time...I am still looking forward to that!

Paul made this sweet little card and emailed it to me at work after our ultrasound today.  I can already tell that this little girl will have him wrapped around her finger.  She STILL didn't want to show her face at our ultrasound today.  She had her hands and feet in front of her face the whole time.  We managed to catch a little glimpse, and I am just so in love already.

Lastly, I got so excited to find these in my mail box today.  My sister-in-law hosted a Kelly's Kids clothing show, and I ordered their first matching outfits.  I can't WAIT to see my two babies in these this summer.  How freakin' cute are these??  Love!
