The last two weeks have been busy with work and life in general. I've been interviewing and hiring like crazy (not that I'm complaining) but it's been exhausting running around. Steve moved out this past weekend and we decided to tackle painting the nursery. It feels great to be so productive, but I wouldn't mind a day of just doing nothing.
At our 24 week doctor's appointment everything looked great. The baby seems to be measuring on the big side which is great news for her, but unfortunately mom is too :). Apparently I'm gaining too much weight! No wonder I feel like such a blimp these days. Since my diet hasn't been too out of control, my doctor suggested that I add a little bit more exercising to my daily activity. So Scott and I are going to do our best to get a nice walk in every day.
The best part about the last couple of weeks has been the amount of movement that I have felt. Every night at about 9:30, she goes crazy. I feel her twisting and turning, kicking and punching and I absolutely love it! I can actually feel her getting stronger by the day. Scott has gotten to feel some pretty nice kicks too. He was talking to her the other night and she kicked him right in the face.
With all of this movement and getting the nursery started, it has really started to set in that I am going to be a momma in just about 15 weeks. The amount of love that I feel for this baby girl is amazing. At least a couple of times throughout the day I'll just start smiling thinking of how blessed Scott and I are.
Here are two picture of me this week. I'm definitely pregnant...
Very good entry babe. No matter what the doctor says, I think you look beautiful and healthy.
