24 Weeks

Don't mind fatty eating his bone in your room

Our artwork!

Wow I am totally behind, we've been so busy!

Well  your crib finally came and once it was put together mom and I got very motivated and decided to get to work on your bedding. Let me tell you, it was not an easy task to get started. Once we figured everything out, we were done in no time. It looks better than I imagined and I can't wait for you to get here.

So far we have made your crib skirt, one sheet and a blanket. We also made silhouettes of animals for your walls. Its been so much fun working on these projects with mom. I'm the brains, she's the executioner. I tried to make the diaper changing pad cover the other night without her and I failed miserably!

I finally feel you consistently throughout the day and let me tell you, you love when I sit on my left side.

Your dad got rid of his Cadillac, he wasn't happy about it but he did it for you. I'm sure later in life he'll show you pictures and tell you about the time he had that awesome car. The truck we got is beautiful and you were kicking up a storm when we were signing papers, so if you're just like your daddy, you'll love the truck too.

Mom and I still have quite a few projects left to tackle for your nursery, but they are easy things like more sheets and blankets.

Our two year wedding anniversary is coming up and we have nothing planned other than the trip to Houston in May. I guess we will see how much you like flying in my belly.

I have an OB appointment today, nothing big, just to weigh me, hear your HB and measure my belly.Your dad is in Dallas, he'll be back tonight. Keep your fingers and toes crossed that he gets the official promotion in a few months.

Like I said, we have been so busy we haven't really had time to do much of anything. I hope we can finish your room by the end of the month. That would be ideal. But I can't seem to get off Pinterest, so I just keep coming up with new crafts for us :)

21 Weeks

Well your crib finally came (yay!) and we spent the night putting it together, and by we I mean your dad assembled it and your Gams and I did what we could and pulled things out of boxes.

I made my first attempt at making your crib sheets and I failed horribly. They were too small. Luckily it was scrap fabric and not good fabric or else I would be really sad about it.

This weekend is a big weekend for me, it's my 25th birthday. You're probably thinking, man that's old. Wait until you turn 25, you'll realize how young it actually is. When I was little I always had a plan. I'll be married by 24 and be pregnant or have a baby by my 25th. So far so good.  I remember talking about this with you dad last year at my birthday at Bonefish. I told him my plans to get pregnant and my goals. I think he thought I was joking, obviously I wasn't.

We are going camping this weekend and by camping I mean in an air conditioned trailer with running water and a bathroom :) You'll come to enjoy those luxuries when your dad decides to take us tent camping! At least you can pee in the woods!

Everyone is going this weekend and a little piece inside me wishes I could have a delicious fruity drink by the pool, but not drinking is for a wonderful cause and from what I've discovered, virgin drinks are just as good!

You are starting to move around a lot more, I think you enjoy putting your arms and legs in awkward positions because you do it a lot and its pretty uncomfortable! I just wish your dad could feel you, I know he wants to so bad!

Until next week...love you oodles!
