26 Weeks

Size of Baby: Baby J is about the length of a cucumber. Baby J is still the same size as last week.

Maternity Clothes: Trying to mix it up some with different tops. I feel most comfortable with tank tops ( or AKA wife beaters) and cardigans. I have found some really cute ones at Old Navy.

Gender:  Still not telling. 

Movement: Lots and lots of movement. Sometimes it feels kinda weird. Baby J is moving alot more than last week and more often when I am working at my desk at work.

Sleep: Getting more energy back, but some days I really just want to sleep.


What I Miss: Still doing more things for myself.


Cravings: I really have been wanting veggies with the occasional evening sweet.

Symptoms: Taking the occasional nap at work and not realizing it. Not good. I have noticed the last week or so that my ankles are swollen when I get home.

Moment of the Week: Feeling the baby move more. Taking the gestational diabetes test tomorrow.....we will see how it goes. I have heard that it is yucky.

Fill in the Blank Friday--Sleep

1.   The last thing I do before going to sleep is         turn on the TV and set the sleep timer . 2.   When I can't sleep I      watch TV until I fall back to sleep   . 3.   The first thing I do when I wake up is     go to the bathroom . 4.   When I'm tired I      can fall asleep anywhere. I have fallen asleep in a folding chair, on a couch , outside, sitting up.....let's say when I am tired, I am tired . 5.   My dream bedroom would be       have lots of white linens and would feel very breezy. It would be filled with antiques and have a large sitting area. It would be shabby chic . 6.   If I could wake up anywhere tomorrow morning it would be        on a porch on a beach house listening to the waves roll in and the feeling the sun rise on my face . 7.   The longest sleep I've ever had was    I a...

On the Road Again.....

It was between Chicago and the state of Pennsylvania. Well....the state of Pennsylvania won out for our little trip for our first anniversary. It is a shorter drive than going Chicago, especially since we do not want to spend most of our mini-vacation in the car. I have a co-worker that lived in Pennsylvania and she gave me some great places for us to visit like, the Phipps Conservatory, the incline at Mt. Washington and the Pittsburgh Zoo ( I think that the hubby would like the aquarium). It is hard to believe that it has been almost a year since our wedding, but I can not wait for our time away. Even though I want to see somethings while we are there, I really just want to relax. If  you know any great places to go or see in the state of  Pennsylvania let me know. We are looking at taking some three day weekend trips in the summer and maybe a week long trip to the beach in the fall.  Do you have any plans for trips anytime soon or this summer? Share we might want to g...
