Sorry for the lack of updates lately.....I'm not really sure blogging is my thing, but since Bob started this I will try to keep it updated more often. It's hard to believe that tomorrow I will already be 25 weeks. Seriously where has the time gone? As of this coming week, baby is already about 1.5 pounds and the length of a recorder that you can play "Hot Cross Buns" on. Its hard for me to believe that I am creeping up on the Third Trimester soon and the baby bump is starting to show finally. I am also starting to get to that uncomfortable sleeping stage that most pregnant women experience. Unfortunately, before being pregnant I was definitely a stomach sleeper and that has been the hardest thing for me to break. Last night after tossing and turning much of the night, I remember turning to Bob and asking him if we could cut a hole into the mattress for my stomach so I could get a good nights sleep finally.
We started to work on the baby's room about two weeks ago and got a lot of the major painting done and the crib set up, but we still have a ton of finishing touches to do. We need to paint the floor boards white, touch up a few spots on the walls, paint the window trim, install the new blinds, and start on my special project--the argyle wall (where do I come up with these crazy projects??)! We also need to patch up and paint the closet and install the organizers so we have a place to hang all the little guy's clothes. Don't worry, I have been good lately and haven't bought a stitch of clothing for at least a month. Although, I did send Bob into Target on Friday night to get his flu shot and he came out with a new toy for the baby. Our kid is going to be spoiled rotten for sure! I told Bob to leave the toy in the box for a while, and he's looking at me with his lip pouting out and he's pratically ready to kick and scream like a kid on Christmas who's just been told he can't open his presents right away. So needless to say, the toy is out of the box, programmed and is ready for use when the kid is six months or older haha.
Here's a few pictures of the little guy's room so far:
Here's a good close up of the baby's bedding. We got such a great deal on the whole set, it was on clearance for $64 and the Smitka's bought it for us :) and my parents also recently purchased the crib mattress for us so now he has a place to sleep!
Next Tuesday I head to the doctors for my Gestational Diabetes test again and I'm so nervous! Please keep your fingers crossed that I pass with flying colors! We also decided to do the 4D Ultrasound (optional) to check in our little guy and see how much he has grown. Hopefully I will have some good close up pics of our little guy to post for you next week.
Sorry for the long post....apparently I had more to update than I thought! Wishing you all a quick & great week ahead! Is it sad that I'm already counting down till next weekend?
