20 weeks and other stuff!

Week 20 


Maternity Clothes: Some pants (mainly jeans) and a few shirts.  Everything is still pretty big.

Sleep: Waking up a lot for potty breaks.

Gender: We will see May 30th (my delivery date changed due to Memorial Day)

Belly Button: Still in.  It never stuck out last time so I do not think it will this time.

What I miss: Nothing really- I love being pregnant.

What I am looking froward to: Getting the nursery set up as much as possible... and of course meeting this little one!

Milestone: I am halfway there!!!! 

Cravings: goodness, let's see..... I am craving ice cream A LOT but I have yet to eat any so the craving is still there (PS- frozen fruit bars do NOT satisfy an ice cream craving!)  Grilled Cheese- I was never a grilled cheese eater until this pregnancy and we have them almost once a week now!  California rolls- I could eat them everyday!  Cookie dough or fresh baked cookies- I made two packages of cookies last week and they only lasted until Wedneday..oops.  (I did send them to work with hubby everyday and sent some to his co-worker so No I did not eat them all =)

Size of baby: 6-1/2 inches and was measuring 10 ounces on our sonogram this last week! 
our sweet blessing at 19-1/2 weeks


Sweet Brax
Still precious as ever with goopy, red, swollen eyes
Poor baby has pink eye.  I would give anything for him to catch a break.  I don't care about hubby and I getting one, just him. hmmmmph :(  We noticed Friday night when we were on the way to our car from eating dinner with sweet family that both of his eyes were green and goopy (nasty) so we watched it all day Saturday (his nose was pretty nasty too) and by Sunday he was in the mood to just lay on us and not do anything.  Both eyes were still running nasty nasty nasty stuff.... so we found an Urgent Care for Kids facility and off we went.  Sure enough our suspicions were right... PINK EYE! We left with two antibiotics (one of his ears was infected too-go figure) and a cranky little boy.  This morning his nose is a little better but his poor eyes are still so red and nasty =( Sweet moment: Brax and I share a yogurt almost every night after dinner and I always make him sit down to share it with me.  (If not, he tries to climb in my lap or all over me and the yogurt ends up all over both of us).  So, this morning I got a yogurt for us to share (I say share....but I rarely end up with more than about three bites total, haha) and he went and sat down right where we always sit to eat it.  Melted my heart! 
Big Brother: I have started showing him where the baby is, patting my belly and saying baby, and using words like sister and brother.  We are also going to get him some big brother books that I have found online.  I do not think that he will understand, considering he is so young, but hey it's worth a try.
