Sorry people! We have not been home on a weekend for over a month, so you get a combined version of the last few weeks! And no pictures...oops! I have a post of our vacation coming, so you can see a couple bumps in there. :)
How Many Weeks: 19
Size of Baby: Mango
Weight Gain: The same this week. Up two pounds overall.
Gender. We finally know! But it's a secret just a bit longer until we tell all our family.
Movement: Yes, this baby likes to flutter around!
Sleep: Not great this week.
Symptoms: So my doctor said that is was probably not round ligament pain I've been feeling, but stretching around my c-section scar. She said some women have to take pain medicine because it can be so uncomfortable. Here's to hoping mine won't be anywhere near that bad!
Maternity Clothes: I found a cute maxi dress on super sale at Target, so I'm excited to wear it at the beach this week!
Cravings: Sweets this week. Also, I got Fazoli's to bring home after my doctor apt. on Monday and ordered a dozen bread sticks with my pasta. Oh my goodness they were amazing.
Best Moment This Week: Finding out pink or blue! So so exciting! :)
Looking Forward To: We are off to a week at the beach in South Carolina with my family. Can't wait for time to relax and catch up!
How Many Weeks: 20 - We are halfway there!!!
Size of Baby:
Weight Gain: Up three pounds total
Gender: Still no official reveal yet. It was fun to let all our family guess, then see their reactions!
Movement: It's the best feeling!
Sleep: This week at the beach was great....no alarm to wake up to, optional nap time in the afternoon. Why can't life always be like that??
Symptoms: I felt like a wimp...after a couple hours in the sun I was wiped! We had some cloudy days which were perfect. I definitely was feeling stretching with my scar this week.
Maternity Clothes: Lived in my swimsuit and shorts and tanks this week. It was the first time I was able to wear flip-flops and a tank top in the airport and not die a frozen death!
Cravings: We had fresh peaches and ice cream almost every night (a beach tradition) this week. Heavenly.
Best Moment This Week: Seeing my son enjoy all the things about a family beach vacation that I loved so much as a child. It was so fun for him to have time to play with his cousins, aunts, uncles, and grandparents!
Looking Forward To: It's always hard for vacation to end, but at the same time it's nice to be back home. Although the next couple weeks are full to the brim!
How Many Weeks: 21
Size of Baby: Banana
Weight Gain: Forgot to weigh in...sorry!
Gender: We put this picture out on Facebook to announce the gender. Perfect, right? Can't believe we are having a little girl! So exciting!
Movement: Both Zach and Lyle got to feel baby girl moving this week. When Lyle felt it, he said, "Do it again!" hah
Sleep: Some nights better than others!
Symptoms: I was tired this week! It took quite a bit to get back into the swing of work, then I was trying to get through the loads of laundry so my family would have clothes to wear! My back has been pretty achy too lately.
Maternity Clothes. Still trying to get use out of my t-shirts while they fit. Busted out my maternity scrubs for work.
Cravings: After indulging in vacation food, I need to get back on track! Cookies are becoming a much too regular part of my diet!
Best Moment This Week: We are out at Camp Mennoscah this weekend for a church retreat. It's always a fun weekend of catching up, good teaching, watching the kids play in the river, and hilarious minute-to-win-it games.
Looking Forward To: One more crazy week of our local fair. Trying to balance setting up fair booths, baking pies, serving pancakes, and marching in the big (haha) parade, after working a crazy week. Hopefully I don't lose my mind by the end of it. You can find me taking a seven hour nap on Sunday.
