This being pregnant thing is flying past. Honestly, I thought time would slow down a bit. We waited so long to be here… I thought the days would pass at the same rate. Not so much. Anyways, I’m about 23.5 weeks along! Here’s the update:
Cravings:
Brown Sugar and Cinnamon PopTarts. I think we have a case of them in the kitchen.
Bacon. At my request, Husby has made me just bacon a few times in the last couple weeks!
Sleep:
I wake up about 430 every morning. Husby then goes out to the couch and I can sprawl out in the bed. He has a whole system worked out with Nysse the dog =) He lays on the little loveseat, and puts his feet on the armchair where Nysse is snuggled. So cute!
How I’m feeling:
Generally good! A few first trimester symptoms are creeping back in – fatigue finds me, appetite leaves me, and here and there I get short of breath. That was really scary the first times it happened, but the nurse (and my mom) assured me that it’s normal. Baby is just snuggling up to my lungs, and could’ve had a growth spurt too. My next doc appt is Tuesday, and we’ll do the glucose test that day too.
Baby gear purchased:
– a barely used pack-n-play (a ridiculously great Craigslist find)
– a changing table (garage sale)
– changing pad and covers (ikea)
– a high chair (super good Craigslist deal)
the Bump (and the dog):

Brown Sugar and Cinnamon Pop Tarts are the best any time..preggo or not!!
Love your bump pictures! Too cute…and you are still glowing!
I love the expression on the dogs face. Too cute! (a little spoiled maybe?)
Eeeeee! That baby belly! I love it so much.
You have to post the picture of them interviewing you at the baseball game. Or maybe you did & I should go poke around first 😉
If you run out of Pop Tarts, we have that flavor on hand for ya!
Too cute!! And congrats on your craigslist scores 😉
Look at how cute you are! =) And believe me, doggies know there is a baby on the way! Mine won’t leave me alone when I am pregnant, and I am constantly getting checked on by them hehe.
Super cute bump! And…I just read your last post, you’ll be in Mason City, Iowa!! That is 10 minutes from me. We live in Clear Lake. If you have time to grab a bite to eat maybe we can get together!
I am just so happy for you!
You look great! So happy for you and your growing family.
