24 Weeks!



24 weeks and Baby P is the size of an ear of corn!

Of course, corn is NOT in season so this is not an accurate measurement as it was trimmed, AND SUPER EXPENSIVE! Baby P is measuring 12.5 inches and just over a pound. She is moving and shaking, especially early in the morning and late at night still. 

Over the last week or so she has started growing upwards which has caused some uncomfortable days and some tightness around my ribs. 

Another weird craving has hit…… Cream of Wheat! I haven't had the stuff in YEARS and all of a sudden I can't get enough! At least this craving is somewhat good for me and for Baby P!

Our baby moon to Vegas was AMAZING! 28 degrees and lounging by a pool was exactly what I needed! There was a ton of walking too though which has lead to some hip discomfort and shin splints! However, we saw lots of sights, saw a Cirque du Soleil show, completely enjoyed the warmth and pool, and relaxed just the two of us! We were so grateful to Grandma and Grandpa for coming out to watch Hayden so we could sneak away! They had a great time too!

Progress has begun on the nursery! We have picked an accent wall colours: Pink Peach. Kind of a coral/pink and have decided to accent with gray, white, and yellow! Such pretty and fun colours! Grandma and I did some fabric shopping but haven't decided on anything yet for bedding. Thinking of a damask pattern to make it fun and girly! Daddy and Hayden are getting ready to paint the wall, and then we have some vinyl decals to put up: white birch trees with yellow birds! There is lots to do! But we are getting excited to get started on all the projects!

Minus feeling tired and a little sick at this point, I am still feeling good and enjoying this pregnancy. The weird taste thing is starting to lessen, or maybe I'm just ignoring it more. 

I go in 2 weeks to the Maternity Care Clinic, the group of doctor's that will deliver Baby P, and to do my gestational diabetes test! Looking forward to the first, and not the latter! Will let you know when we do that and how the experience goes!

Thanks for following along with our journey! We truly appreciate you all taking time to enjoy Baby P with us! Leave a comment because we love to hear from you!
