How's momma feeling: Hot but great!
Size of baby: She's around 2 lbs. and 14.5 inches long (about the size of a head of cauliflower). She was going crazy in there the other night. Some of the biggest bumps and jumps I've seen/felt yet. It was fun! I still just love watching her. She's moving as I type! Also, apparently her brain is very active now.
Cravings: Nothing is coming to mind. I did get some fresh, homemade sandwiches last night. I had three:); they were amazing! I was so excited to eat them!
Aversions: Not really an aversion but I wasn't really craving or wanting sweets this week...can't believe it. Nothing short of a miracle! Also, I usually love pizza (pregnant or not), but I had an opportunity to eat some this week, and I wasn't really interested...I'll take whatever I can get!
Sleep: We have a fan running in our room and that helps a lot! Maybe just one night of weird sleep...got up to go to the bathroom once, but other than that, I'm sleeping great! My weird dreams are gone, and I don't have to regularly get up in the middle of the night for potty breaks. I'm grateful!
Exercise: Made it to Zumba this week and am still able to keep up which I am super grateful for! Walking to work and back in the morning has proven to be quite toasty...I'm usually quite sweaty by the time I get to work. I change into workout clothes by the end of the day to walk back to the car because it's even more hot by then. I just try to chug a water as I walk.
Clothes: One of my friends got me an adorable gray/white striped dress (you know who you are) as a shower gift...I wore it twice already this week:). I love it!! Wish I would've gotten a picture in it. I'm sure I'll be wearing it plenty more times, so a picture is yet to come!
Looking forward to: RODEO!! Tom met a rodeo owner during one of his rotations, and he told us to give him a call if we planned on going to one, and he would "take of care of us" (so to speak)...so we did! Call us rednecks, but we are super excited!! I just hope I can find my cowgirl boots:).
Something fun: We got to go over to some friends' home (from the vet school) for dinner last week. We met their 7 month old and just had a nice time catching up. We had some super yummy potatoes and sausages that looked grilled...since I love the smell/look of grilled items and potatoes, it was a meal made in heaven! I also got to go to a garden tea party this past weekend. A friend and I, along with her little one, went. It was fun (hot but fun)! Pretty dresses, big/fun hats, croquette, and dainty finger foods...it was quite the party!
FYI: We made progress on getting everything put away/organized from the showers. It takes a long time:). It's so much fun seeing all of her little outfits hanging up...lots of pink!!
We've been reading those books to her at night that everyone so generously gave to us at the showers...thank you! Thank you!
Thank you, Lord, for: Time to read this week. It's been a blessing.
Some of our friends loaned us a book called "Kisses from Katie", and I need to return it soon, so I'm trying to "power read". I haven't been able to read this consistently in a while, so it's been refreshing, and I've learned about motherhood through it as well. We're also starting to read "Sacred Parenting". We LOVE "Sacred Marriage", so we're excited about this one too. I've already learned from it.
