Baby Update--Up to Week 20

Well, I've still been feeling great, so there are no complaints from me over here. I've "heard" that I'm a bit more moody, but that no-named person is probably wrong!!! :) I haven't had any cravings that aren't more than my typical pre-pregnancy food cravings and boy-oh-boy is my body a changin'!



I'm going to go backwards since that's easier for me--pregnancy REALLY does take your brain cells and throw them to the wind! I have always made lists, but now it includes things like "Remember to cut your nails"! So pathetic!


Here is me at 20 weeks and 3 days--I changed shirts to see if there would be a difference--NOPE! I'm only purposefully taking pictures every 4 weeks. Any other pic is just a treat!














I truly love my growing belly! I used to wonder why pregnant women touch their belly all the time and now I know---it's just such a truly amazing, weird, fascinating thing to go through and for me touching/rubbing my belly makes me feel like I'm connecting with our baby. I love the way Jeff looks at me when I'm standing in the mirror checking myself out because I can tell he's just as excited as I am about our baby. God definitely created our bodies for multiple purposes and this one amazes me most!


Mom came up to Katy and went to the Katy Parents of Multiples garage sale with me the first weekend of April. I got some great buys that I'm super-excited about. Here is the cutest of the buys: Halloween! I HATE having to shop for/think of costumes, so, with the exception of a 1 year old costume, we're set! 2011: bumblebee; 2012: no clue; 2013: pumpkin; 2014: candycorn.


Jeff and I have been hard at work landscaping both our front and back yards to prepare for summer. I have a hard time not helping because I actually like doing it--it's just harder now. Here is me at 19 weeks 2 days laying the pavers for our backyard patio underneath the trees:























I went home to Cuero for Spring Break to spend some quality time with mom and dad and had a wonderful time relaxing. Jeff had to work, so he was in Katy. The last weekend of Spring Break was the Warrior Dash up in Conroe. Jeff participated (I'll have to make a post about that later), and after he was done, he decided he needed to tell the baby what he'd done. He is going to be such a great father!


Yardwork actually started the first weekend of March. Here is my lovely self before we went out and worked--so just pardon the hair and what not.
