How far along: Almost 26 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: 10 pounds...YIKES! Creeping up on me :)
Maternity clothes: Yes...I am deleting this dumb question! Not like I am going to get smaller and stop wearing them :)
Sleep: Finally sleeping through the night without getting up, well maybe just once but so much better.
Best moment this week: Deciding on baby boy's name and starting to monogram like crazy :)
Worst moment this week: Back pain! Thank goodness for prenatal yoga! Looking forward to class tonight!
Movement: ALL DAY, kicks and rolling. I was told that since my placenta was in front that I wouldn't feel as much but guess having a baby that's measuring almost 2 weeks bigger is causing me to feel everything.
Food cravings: Ice Cream and it's going to be the death of me this pregnancy.
Labor Signs: Nope, not even the slightest cramps or anything...yay!
Weekly Wisdom: Try and capture the sweet moments with Owen. He is growing up so fast and learning more and more everyday. Life passes us by so fast, love every minute of it! And big thing for me (and Chris), remember we can't control what the future holds and to relax and figure things out as you go. God has a plan for all of us!
Looking forward to next week: Or NOT looking forward to...Glucose test :( Yuck, gag! Let's hope I pass with all this ice cream consumption :)
Updates for us and Owen...
Owen is becoming such a big boy and it just hit us. He comes home from school each week singing a new song. We help him with the words but most of the time he gets the ENTIRE song on his own and is so proud of himself for singing it. I have brought out the flip and than goodness for an awesome camera on my iphone, I have been able to record him :) He is too sweet...well at least we think so. His favorite songs are Twinkle, Twinkle, ABC's, Bah Bah Black Sheep, Jack and Jill went up the hill (well this is a riddle but he is so cute saying it) and several more. He sings and sings all day and night :)
Halloween...forgot to post about this. Will do so in a bit but let's just say Owen loved it and rocked his Robot costume. He went up to every house, knocked on the door and said "Trick a Treat" and always said "Thank you" well by the end of the night he was saying "Welcome" he was tired and confused. But we hit almost every house in the neighborhood. Impressive for a 2 year old. Mommy was very tired and hungry but thanks to my little guy for always picking out the recees cups, I had snacks along the way. Yes, we taught our child to look for the orange wrapper...ha! What, he loves them too :)
That's really all that's going on with us lately. We are just loving our little guy. He's so fun and expressive right now. I wish I could remember to write down all his little sayings. I'll leave you with a few of his most recent ones...
Playing with Sadie...Mommy, I like Sadie. She's nice
Watching the Polar Express (which we do every day)...Mommy, Santa is nice. Look at big Santa Tree. Mommy Santa bring Owie a choo choo train for Christmas. Chugga, Chugga, Choo Choo!
Time Change....Mommy, it's dark out. Mommy replies, yes buddy, Mommy is tired and it's almost night night time. Owen, "Mommy needs to take a nap"
Everything is "Mommy, I like it...Mommy, I do it...Mommy, I ok (when falling). Tell Owen what we are going to do or send him to do something, "Oh, ok Mommy...Owie be back" Ask Owen a question and he always stalls and says, Ummm...then the answer. It's fun to watch him think things out :)
Favorite thing to do this week, build a house. Owen and Chris build the biggest houses with pillows and blankets. He makes doors and plays in them all day.
New show, Go, Go, Go...as Owen says. Go Diego Go :)
Owen talks non-stop about his friends at school. His two best buddies, Quinn and Jason must play together all day b/c he is always talking about them.
Well the end of this post ended up all over the place, but just had to add some cute Owen things :)
