The carpet is in and it looks great!!! Now all we need is wood blinds, wood outlet covers, furniture and for me to hang my pictures!! I have waited to hang the pictures until we get the room finished. We are almost there!!!
I bought an antique little rocking chair for the baby, I had a red one, which my grandma still has and I absolutely loved it!!! It stayed at grandma's for my many visits!!! It went everywhere with me, and I assume this brown one will be the same for our child.
When we go to Texas again, I am going to bring it up here and it will probably stay at my parents for when the grand baby comes over. It is crazy to think about us having a baby and our families are ecstatic!!!
Matt had a red chair growing up too, that he loved. His dad still has it and it will be at his house for the grand baby. Funny how similar we were!!
As of now, the baby is the size of a LARGE heirloom tomato and weighs 8.5 ounces.
For it being small, the aches have begun. For the past week I have been waking between 2-4am with horrible leg pain/cramps, having trouble going to sleep, and the feeling of someone taking a knife and twisting it in my lower back. I fear what I am going to feel like in months to come. I think a lot of it is attributed by working 10-11 hr shifts back-to-back and my NAZI manager not letting me sit for a little bit. That is a topic I am going to stay away from for the time being!!!
My monthly eating has been weird. I haven't gained weight. I ate a lot more before I was pregnant than I am eating now. I hardly eat and I think a lot of that contributes to me drinking a lot of water which fills me up.
I am still drinking Memory Lane Whole Chocolate Milk, just not a gallon a day like before. I am now fixated on:
I have always ate spicy foods and this is by far the spiciest. The baby hates me when I eat this( it punches and kicks me after I eat it) and I don't eat a small amount. Half a jar to a whole a day plus the sweet sauce. My step-dad says if I keep eating it, the baby will have red hair, and Matt says I am going to have a habanero baby...lol....
My other craving which isn't good either:
Corn dogs with Mayo!!! Or, hot dogs with mustard/mayo which grosses Matt out!!!
One week from today we will know what we are having!!! We are super excited and will be having a gender reveal party on the 22nd. I am hoping for a boy, Matt a girl, either way we will love it unconditionally and are THANKFUL for the blessing God has given us!!! I will post the news and the infamous baby bump pic for everyone asking.
Until then, here are our kids. They think they are going to get a T-R-E-A-T. Juju has caught onto the spelling, but Sam is a little slow...lol...
