One Whole Pound

Baby girl and I are rapidly growing. We went to the doctor on Tuesday and she weighs 1 lbs 2 oz. I refuse to share what I weigh. HA! Everything looked perfect....strong heartbeat, healthy kidneys, and brain. She wasn't very active at the doctor but I had to twist Nicks arm to stop for ice cream afterwards (total lie) and she really got moving after a strawberry and chip sugar cone. YUM!

Love her little profile:)

RANDOM UPDATES

**We started to research and make decisions on strollers, car seats, and baby furniture. All very exciting and overwhelming at the same time.

**She moves a lot every day...more at night and when I eat something with chocolate or sugar. For instance, the chocolate Whoopers I am chowing down on right now.

**Although I have tried on multiple occasions, large tops don't fit right....even the really cute flowy summer ones, they pull in all the wrong places and don't have the extra space where I need it most.....maternity clothes from here on out.

**People seem to be nicer to pregnant women...holding elevators, offering their seat, and sharing their mid-afternoon snacks (the last one mainly applies to my co-workers but they have been very generous).

This one (our first born) has become SUPER protective over me. He sleeps by my side of the bed, sniffs my belly every chance he gets, and makes sure I am making healthy snacks. His favorite is sliced apples and peanut butter because I let him lick the spoon. I loved this picture with his perfectly crossed paws:)

Some days I still wonder if I look pregnant to the random stranger on the street or if they wonder if I am just unproportional. Nick votes "CLEARLY PREGNANT" but I think he has the unfair advantage of actually knowing that he is responsible for this baby bump....to which I am forever grateful and blessed!

Here I am...22 1/2 weeks. According to my baby countdown app...yes, I downloaded one on my phone. We have 3 months, 29 days, 4 hours, 37 minutes, and 9 seconds...8...7...6....

Can't wait to meet her!!!
