a perfect day for a swim + bumpdate

This month has been so dreamy! It has been in the 80's all of last week! Friday we took Cros to the pool, and had sooo much fun. We were lucky that Mathis took a few hours off, and came with us.


Arizona winters make me NEVER want to move.... but I know come summer, I might be singing a different tune.

I know it's kind of weird to say, but I have felt kind of self-conscious with this pregnancy. I worry that I"m showing too much too soon, and sometimes I'm not showing enough. I worry about my weight gain, about not feeling the baby move enough, etc. I see pictures of other girls who are pregnant, and compare myself to them. It's so dumb. I know that everyone's body is so different, and we all grow and change at different times, and in different ways. I've decided I just can't care or dwell on it. My baby is going to grow the way it grows, and as long as I stay active and (somewhat) healthy, it will be just fine. RIGHT? So.. here's me at 18 weeks.

How far along: 18+ weeks
Total weight gain: things escalated really quickly the last two weeks... about 6 lbs
 Maternity clothes: not yet.. still in that in-between stage.
Stretch marks: no
Sleep: my only wish is that I could take a nap!
Best moment of this week: We finally bought a car.
Movement: Not a whole lot... I feel pokes every once in a while. It kind of worries me. This time with Cros, I was feeling him non-stop.
Food cravings: frozen strawberries have been my go-to snack. I bought that giant bag at costco, and have almost finished it!
Anything making you queasy or sick: men's cologne. I've never been a fan of it, but even more so now.
Have you started to show yet: definitely
Gender: ??
Labor signs: no
 Belly button in or out: inish
Wedding rings on or off: On 
Happy or moody most of the time: so happy!
Looking forward to: my ultrasound this week! Plus, my parents are coming into town :)) (Not looking forward to my baby turning 1 on Thursday!!! ))
