Howdy everyone! We just got back from a delicious dinner at Chili's. Baby was in the mood for Chicken Fried Steak and mashed potatoes....yummy! We are excited that we have decided and ordered our nursery furniture and bedding. NO THEME! I get that question all the time. We are not into themes, but our color scheme is baby/aqua blue, beige, brown with plaids, stripes and polka dots. We hope to start working on it in December.
I went for my 24 week check up today. I gained 5 lbs. since my last visit, I am catching up since I was slow to gain weight in the beginning. Dr. Cantu says everything is looking good: blood pressure, weight gain, size, etc. The only negative part is my bladder. That thing has a mind of its own lately. I have been battling a UTI or some type of infection since my last visit. Let me tell you it is not fun. Luckily she gave me some medication. Apparently UTI's are common in pregnancy, but they are not good. They can cause early labor...we don't want that!!
Here is belly pick from 24 weeks. Not my best picture!! Shawn said, " Oh, this is a good picture." Uh, no! But either way it is the picture that I have. I really feel like my belly has finally "popped". Let me know what you think. This is my "tired-overworked-irritable-hungry-pregnant-teacher" look. You like? Oh, update on my school. I passed my comprehensive exam. All I have left is a presentation and to turn in a few things. I cannot wait for this to be OVER!!
I hope everyone had a fabulous Thanksgiving. Mine was full of family, friends and too much great food. We spent Thanksgiving with the Pollards in Robertson County. It was so relaxing and enjoyable!
It was great to see what they have done with their place. We also got to spend some time with our fast growing niece Isabel. She is growing so quickly!
Shawn and I really enjoyed seeing her and asking Justin and Lisa a million questions about becoming parents.
