I just ordered the book “Happiest Baby on the Block”… here’s to hoping Travis and I can pull it off! 🙂
It’s been a while since I’ve updated my blog, because sometimes life just gets in the way…
Travis and I have been working on the nursery and registering at Babies R Us! We’re so excited to know that it’s a girl, and that we can finally start picking things out! It’s making this all that much more real to us! Oh course my ever expanding belly, mood swings, and cravings are keeping me in check that this is no dream! 😉
Travis and I decided on a paint color for the nursery…peach! It took about 10 minutes to pick out. It was a perfect color too. *I have to give Travis all of the credit because he was the one who found that color!
Travis and I are *in love* with the bedding set that we picked out! It’s got adorable baby jungle animals and is in ‘girly’ colors, but not too girly according to Travis! haha. He may still be in denial that he’s the sole male member on “Team Pink” 😉
We are so excited to have Traci come and paint a mural on our walls to match the baby jungle animal theme! I know she’ll do a great job and it will look amazing!
I’ve not really had to many new symptoms since last post. I’ve been pretty tired at the end of the day and am seeing a little swelling in my feet at the end of the day…but I DO stand all day, and this isn’t anything I haven’t experienced before! Hopefully it’s not something that will get any worse!
I’m noticing my belly growing a bit, but overall haven’t gained all that much!
I’ve been feeling Carsyn quite a bit lately and have even noticed a bit of a rountine. She’s a lot more active when I lay down at night. I feel her little kicks, and sometimes feel like I can feel them from the outside. I’m not sure if I’m just convincing myself that I am, because Travis has yet to feel her. I have also noticed that I feel her move every morning on my way to work. Not sure if it’s the drive, or if she likes what she’s hearing on the radio 😉 She has also jerked a few times when I turn on the blow dryer! haha.
A coworker and friend brought me a gift after my 18 week ultrasound and the card read:
“Dearest little Carsyn. This is an ‘I’m so happy you’re a girl, and that you have 10 fingers and 10 toes’ gift.” They are so cute!
I’m 21 weeks and 2 days today. It feels great! Here’s to another happy and healthy week! :o)
