I feel: Great!
Happy or Moody: Happy – but maybe I should be asking Mike this question to see what his opinion is.
Showing: Absolutely. So happy the “fast food phase” is over.
Maternity Clothes: I purchased my first batch of tops online during an after-Christmas sale. Tops and tunics, mostly, but I am sure I will be trying on pants in the next month or so.
Exercise: Rigby walks.
Miss Anything: Food-themed drinks (beer with a football game, margaritas with Mexican food, etc.)
Anything make you sick/queasy: Not this last week.
Movement: Lots! Baby M (name to be announced publicly sometime soon… maybe) is getting much stronger, and she is very active in the mornings and at night before bed. Michael & Grandma got to feel her move this last week, and I loved sharing that with them! It’s the best feeling ever when she’s moving around in there.
Excited for: Finishing up the shower invitations and registry! Now I just have to get the invitations printed and send them out… So happy to be able to cross that off my list!
Favorite Moment of the Week: Introducing our families (my mom to Michael’s parents) and meeting one of Michael’s sisters. It was a great holiday week!
The holiday week was a perfect week off spent with my mom and Michael and his family. Half was spent lounging around doing absolutely nothing (perfectly okay in my book) and the other half was spent galavanting around town running errands – some Baby M related and some not.
As it was Michael and my last Christmas before Baby M’s arrival, it was nice to be able to receive some last minute things we needed for the house before she comes along. This week I was also able to find adorable fabric for the crib bedding for the nursery which my mom graciously offered to sew for us. As determined as I am to have Baby M be feminine without being a pretty pink princess (at least not all the time), I couldn’t help but coordinating some pink into her nursery! This week we were also able to finish registering for the baby shower, and solidify enough plans for the shower for me to create the invites. It’s all starting to come together, and I am so excited!
