19 Week Bumpdate


Dear Baby,

Well it's now 19 weeks! Ya! I get excited each time a week goes by because I know I'm closer to meeting you! You are growing big time. I'm feeling you move almost every day now and you have started stretching already where you push against me and it makes me unconformable. I think it might be a long couple of months if this is starting already. 

My day clothes are maternity and super comfy however I'm quickly outgrowing all of my bedtime clothes. This makes sleeping more uncomfortable which is equaling less sleep for me. I'm trying to figure out the best ways for me to sleep and be comfortable but nothing has helped yet.  With all this growing I'm noticing that I'm starting to get a new stretch mark from you. Your brother gave me some but it looks like you want me to have some from you too. 

My food cravings are still pretty similar. Most things just sound gross to me. Dairy on the other hand always sounds good. I could drink milk and eat ice cream all day long! I could also eat spaghetti almost every day. Not just pasta, it has to be spaghetti noddles. I had this craving with Rex too. You both must be pasta kids.

Still don't know that gender but the date is getting closer. We will know for just a little bit before we share the news with family and friends at Rex's birthday party on the 31st. I will also be posting here on that day to let everyone know as well. The good news is that we have picked a boys name out but can't decide on a girls name. If you read this post then you might be confused. Yes we had a girls name but it just doesn't sound right anymore so we are back to the drawing board. We have decided to just think about it and then when we have are appointment we will talk seriously about it if you are a girl. If not then we won't have to worry about it. Rex has decided to name you Lizard. He wanted to have a baby lizard but I told him that Mommy can't have baby lizards so instead it is now your nickname. 

This week I have decided that I miss being able to bend over to do dishes comfortably. It's slowly getting harder to do. On the other hand the best moment this week would be spending time with family. We did a zoo trip and Rex had a blast being outside. He got to spend all day Saturday with Grandma and Popa and then today we spent time with Great Granny and Great Popa. It's always so good to go see them and just relax and enjoy the time. They are all really excited for you to join the group and excited to find out if you are a girl or a boy. I guess I should say everyone is excited about that. I get asked several times a week when we are going back to the doctor.

Well that's all for this past week. I hope that soon I can share more of this experience with Daddy and that he can feel you kick soon. I know he is excited to experience that again.

Love,
Your Mommy

The League of Incredible Vegetables: Movie Review

Picture borrowed from  Christian Film Database Another movie review! I was so thrilled when I was walking through Best Buy before Christmas and saw this  DVD sitting on the shelf. If you are a boy mom like myself you know that they love super heroes. I struggle to find age appropriated super hero movies for Monkey to watch. He loves Spiderman, Batman, Iron Man, ect. and he has not seen any of the movies/shows that go along with them. Wait...he did watch The Avengers with Daddy one day while I was out. I haven't seen that one so I can't say what I think of it for a 3 year old. Anyway, I love Veggie Tale movies! I think that they do a good job of teaching lessons to kids in a way that they understand and I love the lessons they teach! This one is great because it is about fear and how if you trust God fear can't freeze you. If you have kids, especially boys this movie is great! It helps them get the superheros they want to watch without the bad guys th...

Y3W: I'm Not Perfect

I'm not perfect. I think you already know that as no one is perfect on this earth even though sometimes people can look like it on the outside. I do post many things about the good things going on in my life because I would rather talk about those then dread on the bad or negative things. However today I'm going to make sure you know that I'm not perfect by a long shot. Since about last Wednesday (so over a week now)I have been struggling. I haven't been doing great in my alone time in the Word, I haven't been praying like I was, I'm craving foods that I shouldn't and eating them instead of praying about it and have gained a few pounds back, I'm not doing great on the house work and I'm struggling in making the right decisions in my parenting as Monkey is entering into this new independent/I'm not listening stage. I know what has caused this struggle and I have been working on it but I have been doing alone and not letting God help me through...
