Week 10

Week 10 Coming to you a few days late. But whats new?? I could barely change out of my sweats this week let alone make myself presentable for a picture;) We've been listening to baby almost daily on the doppler, Adelie gets a kick out of hearing the heartbeat and puts the receiver up to her ear to get a better listen ;) When you ask her,"Where's the Baby?" she promptly lifts her shirt up to show you her belly. Sometimes she lifts it a little too far, her dads been working with her on that. haha. 

As far as this pregnancy is concerned it feels identical to Adelie's now.  I haven't been nauseous since about the 2 weeks after I found out and I remember being totally exhausted with her :)  Officially 1/4 of the way done, I'm looking forward to the second trimester and getting some energy back!! :)

And a few of the most adorable Big Sister ;)

Week: 10

Weight Gain: up 6lbs

Cravings: Ice cream, cheese, salt, pop ya know all the things I was told to avoid-blah

Clothing: Sweats. I'm pretty sure I've got dressed once this week. maybe..

Best Moment this week: Watching the polar vortex happening outside, not comprehending that I would later have to drive in it lol

Miss Anything? The ability to stay up past 8pm. It's like clockwork once it turns dark out my eyes shut.

Movement? not yet

Anything making me sick or queasy? Cleaning up dog vomit (from eating our socks)<-ick. And Liam's smelly diapers. Adelie's do not make me gag but holy cow I can't take his.

Mood: Emotional and exhausted still

Looking forward to: A night on the town with B this weekend for a food and wine festival. Bummed I can't partake in the wine tasting but super looking forward to the food ;)

Gender? All the old wives tales say Girl, my gut says girl.

Worst part of the week: WHEN PEOPLE/DOGS EAT MY FOOD. Brandon got a rude awakening when I went downstairs Sunday morning to eat my leftover I had been craving and there lie my beloved leftover box. EMPTY.  He is sharing the doghouse with Lewis who yesterday ate my specially bought just for me cheese dip in the time it took me to run to the mailbox and back. Walk through the front door to Lewis with a yellow ring around his muzzle. Word to the wise. NEVER EAT A PREGNANT GIRLS FOOD.

Dreams? Non this week-RLS is getting better but the frequent bathroom trips at night are getting a little annoying.

Week 9

9w and finally starting to feel like I did with Adelie :) I think I'm past the nausea, but like with Adelie I've moved into the insomnia. Usually around 3/4 in the morning I have my mid-night bathroom break and then toss and turn for a few hours before finally falling back asleep :(  I still cannot believe how early/much I've popped this time around, glad to have passed the "is she or isn't she pregnant" phase, but holy cow!
This post is a few days late- but, have I mentioned I'm exhausted?
 haha 
I took my bump picture on Monday right before my volleyball game-in my Barbie Green Barbie shirt :) It was amazing to be back on the court in my high school shoes and ankle braces ;)
because I could find any of my college shoes?
On Sunday marked 4 years since my mom has been gone, so this past week was also a pretty emotional one :( As time goes on I find it harder to recognize this date as it just brings back tons of painful memories, so instead of shutting myself in, Adelie and I went shopping with my dad's wallet ;) Just like my mama would have done! I will be repainting/decorating my dad's dining room this weekend with Adelie's help and am SO excited to see everything come together :) My vehicle is packed full of new updates for the room including one very large folddowntwoseats area rug-I will definitely post before and after pictures :) Here's to hoping I don't end up with little handprints all over the walls from my assistant ;)

My gal pal childhood friend Morgan and her daughter Natalie came up yesterday to hangout and take Nat's pictures, Can't believe we're old married and moms nowX) haha

 Shopping with my Mini "me's" <---Ah!

Week: 9

Weight Gain: up 5lbs

Cravings: Veggies, Fruit, Strawberry Lemonade, anything Spicy, leftover Halloween candy ;)

Clothing: I have barely wore anything besides sweats for the past two months, but when I do "dress up" (I say that loosely ;) Leggings and maternity shirts from OldNavy :) It's all about comfort 

Best Moment this week: Getting to play volleyball for the first time in FOREVER. It felt so great to be back on the court-the bump only got in the net a few times ;)

Miss Anything? Not being able to dive after those volleyballs haha

Movement? not yet

Anything making me sick or queasy? In the middle of the night I've been getting RLS restless leg syndrome after my mid night bathroom break, the combination of that and having an escalated body temp make me a little queasy at night.

Mood: Emotional and exhausted

Looking forward to: Our first actual drs visit the wednesday before Thanksgiving :) And I'm pretty sure we will be opting to find out if baby Beck is a boy or girl as my Christmas present at an alternative ultrasound place :) EEK!

Gender? I have thought another girl since day 1, or triplets ;) But lately I've thinking there might be a little boy in there! Brandon would be SO excited!

Worst part of the week: Deciding to take a nap because I was so unbelievably tired only to wake up even more tired than before :( Can't wait to get some energy back!

Dreams? Non this week- but lots of insomnia!
