Week 25

Happy Friday everyone! Baby A is the size of an eggplant this week! In case your like me and

have rarely seen an eggplant, let alone picked one up, she's roughly a foot long and just under 2lbs. That's almost the same length and weight (sorrynotsorry) as my pre-baby Subway sandwhich (which I have not had in months, because of the risk of listeriosis from the meat.) Big ol sad face there :( Thursday we had a brief patch of sunshine and the husband and I took the dogs for a run. Well him run, me more of a slow jog..but I made it farther than I thought I would. Bonus. On a creative note, the dresser has been ombred and her mason jar is overflowing with headbands. Next week starts the home s t r e t c h a.k.a last trimester and we are more then ready for it to be June!

25 weeks

Told myself I would never post a bare belly shot. And this will be the ONLY one, but this morning she was definitely laying on one side of my belly and you could see it much better this way :)

Her quilt finally came in too!

Did you notice her name on the quilt?

The original name we had picked out was Adelie Harper Beck.

We also wanted to include my mothers name.

So we dropped harper & switched her middle name to Jo.

After Barbara Jo Watson.

We still loved Harper and wanted it as well.

After going back and forth for a few days minutes.

we decided to keep it all.

Adelie Jo Harper Beck

After all. My mother named me Jacee Jo Ashton Watson.

And it is embroidered on her quilt.

So it's a done deal.

And we LOVE it.
