27 Weeks...Third Tri!!!

The CRIB!!!!!

The Crib is here and all put together!!! Now we just have to get the rest of the room done.

Christmas is almost here!

So Nick and I went out and got most of our shopping done last Thursday. We had so much fun spending the day together, it was just what I needed. We finished almost all of your shopping, I think we only have a couple people left! Well while we were out shopping I had a funny little incident...Keep in mind that baby had been kicking me ALL morning almost non stop...
We had just walked into target and started shopping around when all of the sudden I felt some wetness in my pants, I hadn't needed to pee, so I got a little concerned. I stopped walking and turned to Nick..." I think I need to get to the bathroom, I'm leaking something" I was trying not to worry, it was prob just sweat from all the walking, or that oh so lovely pregnancy symptom of discharge, but in the back of my head I was thinking...omg what if my water is breaking! We walked briskly over to the bathrooms and I went inside to inspect what was going on. Well I determined what happened... Baby had just kicked me rather hard right in my bladder, and I had my first pregnancy induced incontinence accident. There was no more leakage the rest of the day so my water breaking thought quickly went away, and the embarrassment quickly set in. I peed my pants! Thankfully I am able to laugh at myself, it's not like there is anything I can do to change it...so why not laugh about it right!
We are headed to bloomington this weekend for Christmas with my family. We will be there for Christmas eve, Christmas day and then possibly the day after for lots of family, food and fun, and I can't wait! I LOVE family gatherings, and eating all my moms wonderful Christmas goodies. Then the next week is when Nick's sister is coming home so we will do Christmas with them that weekend. I'm really looking forward to that also because I love watching my niece and nephews open all their gifts! Well I think that's about it for now. I will try to post bump pics this week, and I'm sure I will have some great Christmas pictures in a few weeks!

25 week bump!!!

25 Weeks! I've been feeling pretty good lately, but I can definitely tell that everyday activities are getting more and more difficult. Things like tying my shoes, and putting on pants, pretty much anything that requires bending over is getting really hard. I also have discovered that I have something called Symphysis Pubis Dysfunction, which basically means that my pelvic bone is becoming too lose at the bottom so it rubs together, and catches, and generally causes pain and discomfort. It kinda feels like a bruise right on the bone in my groin area...not so fun. But I have been trying all the tricks I read about online to help ease the pain. Things like wearing a maternity support belt ( which my friend heather gave me and I am sooooo grateful) and keeping my knees together as much as possible ( like when I roll over in bed, and sitting in a chair, and getting dressed) and I think it is helping. Nicks parents ordered the crib this week so I am super excited to get it, and start getting the room ready! Well I guess that is all for now. Here are my 25 week bump pics...

More Belly Pictures!

Had a Dr. Appointment yesterday that went great. My midwife said that I looked good, and we had a nice chat about natural Labor and Delivery, so it is nice to know for sure that we are on the same page. I also got my new camera today so I decided to take a few new bump pictures this time....BARE BUMP! haha...so here they are!
