Okay, so I’m cheating by one day- but as of tomorrow, I will be officially 25 weeks. I don’t know if my hormones kicked into high gear this week, or what, but I’ve suddenly become even more protective, and even more closely bonded with our little one. My mothering instinct is so tangible to me [...]

The orange stuff pretty much tasted like the orange punch we used to get for Girl Scout meetings from McDonald’s- just really, really sweet! We find out tomorrow if I passed the test- if I didn’t, I’ll have to take the 3 hour test. Of the people who take the 3 hour test, only 15 [...]

It’s been a few days since I’ve posted, hasn’t it? Sorry about that!! I’m happy to report that all is well here in Chi-town. S and I had a wonderful, very relaxing weekend.

… I’ll be in my third trimester.
… I’ll have less than 100 days to go (I currently have 114).
… I’ll be even bigger than I am now.
These are all things I can barely believe. I keep trying to picture what it will be like to be really, really pregnant- and I just can’t. I suppose [...]

Well, it appears that we are finally over the apartment drama (I’m hoping those aren’t famous last words!). The apartment is smelling much better, the drywall is totally fixed, the apartment is being cleaned by regular cleaners today, and the carpeting is being professionally cleaned on Saturday.

They tell me that as of tomorrow, our little peanut will be 12 inches long, and is over a pound. I read this week that if I gently push on the side of my belly, that she will kick. Yesterday I tried it- and yup, it works! I feel a little bad waking her up, [...]

And you think it’s coming from my general direction? Hmmmm… That’s odd. I’m sure it has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that I was unable to take a shower this morning. I’m sure not.
Yup, this morning, I stood with my hand under the shower stream waiting… and waiting… and waiting for the [...]

Okay, I always feel like I have the weirdest facial expressions in these pictures, and bad hair- but oh well, here it is!
Our little girl is definitely popping out a bit more, and I love it. This is definitely a really, really fun stage in the pregnancy- not a lot of the typical pregnancy complaints [...]

I’ll start with the good- S and I had SUCH a wonderful weekend! We met my parents in Cedarburg on Saturday, and had a really nice afternoon relaxing and chatting. All four of us then checked into our adorable bed and breakfast (which we loved), and took full advantage of their wine and cheese social hour (I had hot [...]

Gymboree has a big sale on right now- 30% off of EVERYTHING, including sale items. And I just couldn’t help it. I mean, seriously? Could anyone really think I could resist this?
I think not.
In other news, I’m 22 weeks as of Saturday. They tell me the baby is a size of a papaya, or the length of [...]
