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...

Wedded Wednesday: Thanksgiving Traditions

With the holidays coming,  I am thinking about how I want to spend them with the hubby. We do the same thing every year for Thanksgiving and make a road trip to spend it with his family. I usually go shopping on the day after Thanksgiving starting at 3:00am and usually come home and sleep the rest of the day. I was looking at starting some sort of new traditions on the Saturday after Thanksgiving that we can do for years to come. Maybe like putting up the Christmas tree (this is my vote), taking an annual holiday photo, doing some shopping together or maybe doing something relaxing like getting a couples massage. Of course, we will have to throw in some football and lots of left overs whatever we decide to do.Building new traditions, will be the traditions that will continue in our family  and define the holidays for years to come.  Do you have any Thanksgiving traditions?
