24 and 25 Weeks

The bump is growing! I feel like I finally look like I am pregnant and not just chubby. We think it is hilarious each week what size the baby is but he is growing.

25 Weeks

Willie was really posing for this one!

Taylor Wedding 11.22.14

Taylor came over this evening so I could help her make an excel spreadsheet for her wedding and she brought me this!

She asked me to be her Matron of honor and this is sparkling cider so I can even enjoy it now. 

On Saturday we went dress shopping where Taylor said "Yes to the dress." She said we could get coffee before we went shopping and I had to get a donut... because I can.

This is post spray tan ha ha ha!

22 and 23 Weeks

22 weeks and the belly is growing. Baby J has been kicking a lot more and really starts to move as soon as I get up in the morning. 

Me at 23 weeks. I had Matt take this after I went to body barre and I made the decision after I saw this picture..... that momma needs a spray tan. I think this is the lightest my skin has even been so after I got off work on Friday I decided to treat myself to a tan!!

21 Weeks

I have an app on my phone that give me information and updates constantly on the baby. We decided this week that the veggies and fruit it compares the baby to doesn't make much sense but oh well. Baby J is around 10.5 inches long and the bump is growing. If you can't tell Willie loves to be part of the action, no matter what we are doing!

20 Weeks

This was a busy week for us other than just the usual work and day to day routine. On Thursday I went to Louisville, KY with Matt to a truck show, it was such a fun and long day. I took the day off to go with him and it was fun to see him get so excited about all the vendors but better yet I loved it, between the people watching and getting ideas about companies to reach out to it was a great day.

This week was also 20 weeks. I am pretty much wearing maternity pants all the time and incorporating both regular and maternity tops. It is like having a whole new wardrobe since Brooke and Rhendy gave me all their clothes!

Friday night we went with Taylor and Issac to see Brantley Gilbert at the Coliseum so Baby J better love country music because this was his second concert and we just got tickets for Gary Allan in June. Here are a few pictures from the night.

 What a fun night! I am glad Tay took this picture of me and Matt! We never take any pictures together...

Then Saturday and Sunday I took a 16 hour personal protection and conceal and carry class for the State of Illinois with my friend Jenny. It made the weekend go by really fast and I was super tired by Monday but we learned a lot and we both passed.

Sunday was also Sawyer Tate's first birthday which I missed so stopped by before I headed home on Sunday night to give him kisses and his birthday present. All in all it was a great week and weekend!

19 Weeks... Big News!

I had my appointment on Tuesday to get my ultrasound to see how the baby was doing and to see if we could find out what the baby was. Our first appointment that we went to to confirm I was pregnant was when I was 6 six so the baby was only 1/4 centimeter so this time around it was definitely a little bigger.

The baby was not cooperating at all and it took a long time to get the baby to move so we could see if it was a boy or a girl and we got confirmation that it is a BOY!! We are so excited but were we were happy to see that all the internal organs were growing as they should be and the technician told us that he looks perfect! I think we were both surprised to hear that the baby is a boy and now I want to find a name, start buying baby stuff, and thinking of nursery decor. 

I am rocking a new shirt and maternity pants that I got for my birthday and I can definitely say I am starting to look pregnant. I am still unsure of maternity pants but I am running out of options with my regular pants. Willie had to be in the picture of course, he always has to be in the action. I don't know what he is going to do when we have a baby! 

 Taylor got me this sparkling cider for my birthday and I never drank it so I decided to pop this bottle open and enjoy! Carol also made me cupcakes that I took to work to celebrate so I decided it would go well with the cider.

18 Weeks

18 Weeks (March 10)

I am starting to show just a little bit. I am still wearing regular pants but have been wearing my "fat pants" and have started to put some of my work pants away. 

We are so excited because next Tuesday I have my next appointment where we will find out if the baby is a boy or girl!!

I didn't get home from work until after 6:00 pm but it was still like 50 degrees outside so me and Willie went on a walk. Willie hasn't remembered yet how much he hates walks!!
