28 Weeks

I am actually 29 weeks right now, so this is last weeks excitement and picture. Andrew wanted to be in this one but he didn't understand to keep the sign below his face. At my 26 week appointment we had our diabetes test and passed!! Now I am going to the Dr every two weeks. Crazy!! Last weeks appointment went well. I am still measuring at least a week ahead of my due date. The Dr thinks the baby is tall and skinny. We will find out soon because I get another ultrasound at 32 weeks. My blood pressure is still really good and the baby's heart rate was good. I am feeling so blessed lately with Andrew and this healthy baby on the way. We started the nursery this week too! (Post to follow.)

 

Total weight gain: +25 lbs This is just getting out of control. I am really trying to watch what I eat but all I want to do is eat. Oh well, the end goal is a healthy baby right?? With Andrew I gained 50 lbs so as long as I am under that I will be happy.

Gender: Boy!!! I am still buying this little boy new clothes and I should probably stop. We really need to get a name picked out!

Movement: This little boy caused some problems. Last week he decided to majorly decrease his movement for 2 days. The first day he just didn't move a lot and the next day I maybe felt him twice. I decided to call the Dr and they told me to come in. As soon as they put me on the monitor he was moving all over the place. His heart rate was fine and they sent us home. Thank God!! Since then he has been moving like crazy.

Sleep: Sleep is good!!

What I miss: My old body :(

Cravings: Fruit

 

Nice Weather...FINALLY!!

The weather has finally started to warm up so we have been taking advantage of it. Andrew loves being outside!! Here are a few pictures from the last week of mostly nice weather.

 

 

 

 

Living Room Facelift

I thought I would post some pictures our big home project. We finally got built in shelves!! I have wanted them for so long because the living room just seem kind of awkward with two empty spaces. We are glad we got them but now I need to figure out how to decorate them. They make the room brighter and it some how feels bigger.

Easter Weekend!!

This Easter was a little bit better than last because Andrew was not sick, but I was :(  I realized now that I was sick on Christmas and Easter.  Not cool!!  I am finally feeling better.  We really had to rely on Daddy for Easter.  I had to send him out to finish Easter shopping.  We colored eggs on Saturday.


For some reason we had to have our hood up for coloring eggs.

 

Grandma sent a few Easter surprises that Andrew got to open on Saturday.  Thank you Grandma!!

Andrew was showing me that he got Jeff Corvette

We decided to give him his basket after church so we would make it to church.  The Easter bunny hid some eggs with his Easter basket.  The rest of the day was pretty low key.  I am really looking forward to when baby brother can share in these holidays with us. 

One of my favorite parts of the day is when I came downstairs in this dress and Andrew stopped what he was doing and said I looked like a princess!!  It was so sweet because I know I looked more like a whale princess.  Every time, which is very rare, I wear a dress he thinks I look like a princess.  So cute!!! 

Our attempt at a family pic.  Not good of me at all but still wanted to include how cute the boys looked.
