28 weeks

I'm 28 weeks today and so far so good. I still feel great and have only gained 20 lbs... which is like 100 to me! But everyone says that's pretty good, so I'm going to be happy with it for now. I feel Jane Ellis moving ALL the time! It's so much fun! I love to just feel her move and kick and guess what part of her I'm feeling lol Is it a hand, foot, elbow, knee? Who knows! But it doesn't matter, It's just fun to know she's still happy, warm and growing :)

As good as the pregnancy has been, I have started to notice I can't walk up the stairs without losing my breath and working 3 in a row has started to become a bigger chore than before, but I'm still sleeping great during the day. Daisy loves her nap time with her mommy and after playing fetch in the yard a few times, snuggles up with me on the bed and will sleep there all day until I get up. Here's a picture of her and orange kitty taking a nap on the couch.

I haven't started painting the ceiling, but I do have the paint! So, unfortunately, I don't have any pictures to post yet. I will work on that this weekend. If we don't go to the first Razorback game of the year! Robert is hard at work cutting rice, so if they are caught up enough, we'll be heading to Fayetteville saturday!

Well, I guess that's all for today, I'll post more soon!

Cravings

So as of today, I really haven't had any strange or abnormal cravings. I have been wanting sushi but that's not out of the ordinary. Well, after work this morning I went to Wal-Mart (already a bad idea right there) to pick up something to fix for dinner. I left with the fixins for a cherry cheesecake!

27 weeks

Today, Jane Ellis is 27 weeks! Only 13 weeks to go :) It's amazing to know that in as little as 10 weeks we could have a baby in our house... that's all ours.... and that we can't take back lol I think Robert and I are both getting a little anxious as this day approaches. We actually haven't even talked about how our lives are going to change. I'm just trying to get her room painted lol.

So I get posts weekly about how Jane Ellis is growing and what size fruit or vegetable she is. Yes, they compare my child to fruit! Anyway, this is what they said today: Baby's now the size of an eggplant! Baby's lungs are going through some major developments these days, which (combined with the opening of previously plugged nostrils) means she's now able to practice inhaling and exhaling. The lack of air in your womb means every "breath" is filled with amniotic fluid, but hey--- it's progress!

Jane Ellis is 25 Weeks!

I had to go back to the doctor today for Jane Ellis's checkup and was able to have another Ultra Sound! We were able to have another one because at her last one they were unable to see the part of her heart that they needed to. But they saw it this time and they said her little heart was perfect :) My mom was able to go with me so that was an extra treat. Jane Ellis's HR was 154 and very strong. She is getting bigger too... she weighs 2 lbs and is measuring a week ahead... YAY!! Only I pray I don't have a 10 lb baby haha After her US we were needing something sweet, so we went to Muddys! Jane Ellis loved it ;)
