BEAUTIFUL LIFE

Today I went for my 18 week checkup and everything looked great!  Heart rate was 147 and my little 'wild' baby (according to the doctor) was constantly moving and kicking.  I'm resting up now because I probably won't be getting any down time when our little jumping bean arrives. ;)  Our next appointment is November 9th at 22 weeks and we FINALLY get to find out what we're having.   We are sooo excited, but I wish we didn't have to wait 4 more weeks.  But it will be here before we know it...

How far along? 18 Weeks

Total weight gain: 4 lbs 

Maternity clothes? Not yet...but I can't wait until I finally look pregnant instead of just bloated :)

Stretch marks? not yet and trust me, i'm slathering on the tummy butter. ha. even though that's probably pointless!

Sleep: ohhh I sleep just fine and I'm enjoying every minute of it!

Best moment this week:  Feeling the baby moving in my belly, can't wait until Devin can feel it too!

Movement: ohh yes. I think we might have a wild child on our hands!

Food cravings: apples, sweet pickles, and tomato soup! yum.

Gender: only 4 weeks left until we find out!  I think it's a boy, Dev thinks it's a girl!  We will seeeeee. :)

Labor Signs:  definitely not!

Belly Button in or out:  IN

Wedding rings on or off? On

What I miss: Nothing .  Life just keeps getting sweeter. :)

What I am looking forward to: Finding out what our baby is!!!

Weekly Wisdom: I don't think I'm experienced enough to be offering up wisdom, but I'm trying to get lots of sleep and enjoy some good quality time with my husband because life as we know it is about to change in a big way!

Milestones: feeling the baby move!
