25 Weeks Along...


I'm 25 weeks! This is kind of weird since Josie Duggar (if you watch 19 kids and counting you'll know what I mean) was born at that age and survived. WEIRD. My baby is around 2 pounds now! (Note: the photo was taken at 24 weeks).

The kicking has been interesting. Sometimes, my baby just kicks and kicks and kicks, but other times he or she seems to be very quiet.

I've gained 10ish pounds so far, according to my last appointment.

And the sleep induced coma has returned. In the beginning of my pregnancy all I seemed to do was sleep. I would sleep for 12 hours night after night. This past week I've seen a bit of a comeback with that, and I've been snoozing for 10-11 hours at a time! I know it's normal, but it sure makes me feel unproductive!

The next few weeks will be busy as we pack up all the rest of our stuff and make the move to Louisville. I'm so excited! I get to be the one ordering everyone around instead of carrying boxes this time, :-)

I also seem to be doing a bit of early nesting. Every box that I've packed has been SUPER organized and ridiculously labeled. Everything has to be just so. I don't want anything going into our new place that we don't need! I'm probably driving Rob crazy with my control freak attitude about this packing, but I figure you can never be too prepared for a move!

And I have one confession to make: I hate materinity pants. No, I despise them. You might notice in my picture that I am not wearing them. hehe, my little secret- the Bella Band! It keeps my unbuttoned (and uh, unzipped) prepregnancy pants from falling down. I wore it a bit in the beginning of my pregnancy, but now that my belly has rounded out it's much easier to wear it again. Which makes me super happy since I don't feel like a frump anymore!
