14 weeks

 

                          Baby G2 is the size of an APPLE

Total weight gain: 4 lbs
Maternity clothes: yes sir
Stretch Marks: nope.  I'm praying I make it through this pregnancy too without them.  PRAYING
Sleep: This week is a little better.  
Best moment this week: Preparing for our first (own) Christmas.  We are celebrating Christmas this Sunday.  Our plans are to wake up early, open gifts, have some breakfast than go to church.  Come home and have our Christmas dinner.  MY FIRST TO COOK!!
What does Aubrie think: She's precious-she'll say "baby" and point to either her tummy or mine. She a great nurse too.... especially on those morning that I'm throwing up. 
Miss anything: nope. 
Movement: yes 
Food cravings: Smoothies, sushi, sweet-tarts, sprees. 
Anything making you sick/queasy: Nothing in particular... just the occasional morning sickness. 
Have you started to show: OH YES 
Gender prediction: I think boy... only because of how different this pregnancy it. We are still discussing if we are going to find out.  I think I want to know this time. 
Labor pains: nope
Wedding ring on or off: on
Belly button in or out: in
Mood most of the time: Happy...but very emotional 
Looking forward to: Christmas!
Next appointment: Jan 5
Thoughts for the week: I'm so shocked by how different this pregnancy is from Aubries.  Not talking about symptoms.... I mean the whole "event".  There are times I actually forget I'm pregnant... it takes me a second to remember how far along I am (that would never have happened with Aubrie).  If I'm craving it, I'm going to eat it- Sushi, a cold sandwich, queso and yes... I even have the occasional 3 cup of coffee. It's tough chasing after a toddler (21 month old) and "attempting" to keep a clean house.  I'm nervous about having a 2 year old and an infant and nursing.  I don't plan on pumping ( I hated it with Aubrie), but nursing takes so much time and I don't want Aubrie to feel abandoned.  I know moms do it every day.... it's just something that is always on my mind.  I want her to feel just as special as she does right now.

Im still alive....

Oh how I TERRIBLY miss blogging....  I don't know how other moms do it.  My only alone time is when Aubrie is in bed (thank you Lord, Alston does bedtimes) and Alston gets in the shower.  That leaves me about 30 minutes.  30 minutes.... and I need to pick up the livingroom, clean Aubries high chair, load the dishwasher, make sure Alstons work clothes get dried, put dinner up in the fridge.  BUT what do I ACTUALLY do.  Drink of cup of coffee (while its still hot) and watch chopped reruns.... anything other than the Disney channel.
So, here I sit.  watching the food network looking at a "lived in livingroom/playroom".

One day... One day.... I'll have a clean house AND clean laundry at the same time AND I'll get to blog again one day.

Until than.....
Please Excuse 
THE MESS
