So it is official, I am now 6 months on the dot, meaning I am now entering into my third trimester. Can you believe it? I can't either!! Whoa! The days of waiting around are now over and it is preparation time. Once the crib arrived and was put together, I worked hard at getting the baby decorated exactly the way I wanted.
The pregnancy itself has been going very well. On most days it is really even hard for me to believe that I am pregnant because I have been feeling so good and really do almost everything that I did before I got pregnant. The only daily reminder is feeling the kicks and flutters inside. I switched to taking my vitamins at night, which seems to have helped in my not getting sick anymore, its been about 2 weeks now that I haven't had to run to the bathroom because I thought i was going to lose it.
This little baby has already been getting spoiled, especially by all of her grandparents. She's gotten everything from clothes and toys to all the essentials, including our new stroller (thanks Mom and Dad Nevins for the stroller). It makes us feel so special to know that although we are so far away, everyone is thinking about us during this special time. And, in just a week and 2 days I will be headed on a plane ride to Milwaukee to begin the baby festivities, where my mom is throwing me a baby shower. The time is approaching so quickly and I just am so excited!
Here is a picture of my 6 month baby bump:
And, as of right now, the baby is suppose to be about 2 1/2 pounds. It's hard to imagine what that would be like, but I just keep thinking about my little boy when we first got him. Rocky weighed in at 2 1/2 pounds as a pup....I have a little Rocky in my belly :)
